Action Between Two Giants

A new chapter in the saga between Gaming VC and Boss Media has started now that Gaming VC announced the start of official legal action against Boss. Boss Media not only operates some of the top online casino betting products in the world through the Boss site’s but the company also uses it’s business to business side to license this top software to other gaming companies for use to power their own gambling and betting sites – which is a fairly common practice in the industry and online casinos frequently license out or white label software if there is a market for it. Gaming VC operated two key betting properties in the Italian market and the core of the current dispute centers on Gaming VC’s lack of proper Italian licensing and Boss Media’s actions toward Gaming VC once the company no longer held that Italian licensing.

The issues started primarily because Gaming VC sold one of its two Italian facing online betting sites, Betpro, last month and once that sale was finalized Gaming VC no longer technically held a license to operate in the Italian market. That was a problem though because Gaming VC operated still another online casino betting site in the Italian market that generates a significant portion of the gambling group’s revenue. Boss Media canceled the Gaming VC software contract and cut Gaming VC off from using the Boss Software to power Betaland, Gaming VC’s other Italian gaming site. The bulk of the legal dispute claims that Boss Media did not follow the steps outlined in their software contract when canceling the online casino betting software and thoroughly damaged Gaming VC’s business with the abrupt termination.

Although that part of the suit is clear, another aspect of the lawsuit adds a twist on the entire situation that, if true, would mark quite a bit of underhanded deceit out of the Boss Media that is actually not common in the online casino gambling industry. Gaming VC claimed that once Boss Media terminated the software contract that the company allowed Boss betting sites access to Gaming VC’s list of Italian gamblers so that the betting site could poach off of Gaming VC’s former clients. Boss Media has not released a statement about the accusations because of the pending litigation.
