Chilipoker Signs with Playtech
The French online casino gambling market is soon to open now that the French
government has really put the process in motion. Over the past several months
the prominent internet gambling brands in the European market have begun to
build partnership agreements that will solidify a place for the companies in the
emerging French market. Chilipoker is a shoe-in in the French market; the online
casino poker gambling site has experienced incredible growth recently and penned
a deal with the second largest internet service provider in France, “Free.”
Additionally, now that Chilipoker has assured itself a position in the French
market the next step was to secure a strong online gambling software platform –
the deal with Playtech has been finalized and penned just this week.
Playtech is arguably the top software provider in the world (the company
competes with the other major brands like Microgaming and CryptoLogic) and the
new deal with Chilipoker is quite beneficial for the Playtech brand as well. The
new licensing agreement has the online casino poker site running as a
sub-licensee on the Playtech platform of a trial period of time before securing
a direct Playtech software license. The French market is still in the regulatory
and licensing stage so there is not yet full access to the market for foreign
online casinos – that will occur by the end of the year.
The Chilipoker online casino is well positioned and has all of its ducks in a
row right now. Between the licensing deal with Playtech and the entry into the
French market, Chilipoker is an up and coming gaming brand in the European
market. |
