The Scandinavia-facing sportsbook has joined the CryptoLogic\’s poker platform following an exclusive three-year agreement. CryptoLogic\’s reputation and market-leading strength in Betsafe\’s core European markets were key factors in Betsafe\’s decision.
“When we decided to expand our poker room, we knew we wanted a trusted software provider with a reputation for liquidity, stability, quality and integrity. CryptoLogic offered all this – and more,” said Andre Lavold, Betsafe\’s CEO. “CryptoLogic\’s suite of innovative, exclusive games will bring new excitement to our poker players across Europe and beyond.”
“For poker licensees, size matters. Thanks to a five-year focus on international markets, CryptoLogic\’s software now powers the world\’s largest shared poker network that excludes US players,” said Lewis Rose, CryptoLogic\’s President and CEO. “Our size advantage, plus our adherence to strict regulatory standards will give Betsafe-and its players-a profitable, safe home online. Betsafe\’s established, rapidly growing player base and reputation for safe, secure gaming fit perfectly with CryptoLogic\’s focus on the world\’s blue-chip gaming brands.”
In separate news, CryptoLogic has unveiled a new poker tournament leader board software. CEO Lewis Rose commented: “Innovations like the tournament leader board and Hold\’Em Blackjack, announced last week, meets the needs and desires of online players throughout the world.”
Elsewhere, CyberArts announced a significant upgrade to the global capabilities of its Foundation™ software platform for developers of online gaming services. The upgrade helps developers minimize the risk associated with the recently-passed Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, allowing quick and easy launches of non-English-language versions of their gaming services.
Chris Derossi, co-founder and CEO of CyberArts, said: “We are very excited to offer capabilities that will allow developers to continue to diversify their online gaming offerings, and serve non-U.S. players in any parts of the world. Major online poker sites can safely continue their financial growth in regions unaffected by the Safe Ports Act.”
CyberArts, which currently powers the online poker room for Mansion.com, is in discussions with several companies which will unveil new Foundation-based online gaming services within the next 90 days. World Poker Tour is also expected to switch to the CyberArts Foundation™ platform in the near future.
After several discussions during the last year, Ongame Network has announced to have terminated the partnership with Futurebet. Ongame will help moving players\’ accounts and funds to another network.
“Ongame Network has strict policies on what we believe is correct and respectful treatment of players. We are committed to the highest standard among our operators and their players. This forces us to sometimes take action toward operators that do not live up to those standards,” the poker operator said.
