Teaming Up for Betting
Gamblers across the UK will have a new choice when it comes to in-game betting
thanks to a joint venture between Global Interactive Gaming (GIG) and
Sunderlands Online Limited. The two companies will offer online casino bettors
the option of betting on the major sporting events through the Sunderlands Web
site in real-time. Sunderlands is already a hot-spot for online bookmaking, but
the new deal with GIG will allow the online casino betting to group offer in-run
wagering.
Sunderlands primarily operates in the European online casino gambling market,
but laso has interests in the Asian gambling market. The two companies will
offer internet gamblers SportXction gaming during all of the major international
sporting events. And according to the deal, GIG is primarily responsible for
integrating the technology into the site while Sunderlands will head up the
promotional aspects of launching the new online casino betting product.
Sunderlands is a growing name in the international sportsbetting industry, and
the association with GIG’s main SportXction product will go a long way toward
boosting the site’s registered users and profit margins. The CEO at Sunderlands,
Dave Grogan, remarked on the new deal, “SportXction provides Sunderlands Online
with a tremendous platform for in-run betting and a first class partner. As one
of Europe's fastest growing bookmakers, we are driven by meeting the needs and
expectations of our customers. We are sure they will be delighted with this
service.”
The new product will launch in the coming weeks and players can expect a
marketing blitz by Sunderlands once the SportXction software is fully up and
running. And as is traditional in the online casinos industry, Sunderlands will
undoubtedly offer some great signup incentives as a part of the SportXction
promotion.
