TAIN SIGNS UP FOR PLAYTECH ONLINE CASINO

Swedish b2b provider extends its product line
 
The Stockholm-based Tain business-to-business online gambling provider extended its product offering this week following an agreement with software developer Playtech which will see that company's online casino offering included in the Tain portfolio.
 
Tain offers a wide range of software and infrastructure services to small and medium sized gaming operators and for the past five years has provided its licensees with access to Playtech’s iPoker network.
 
The new agreement significantly expands this arrangement through the provision of Playtech’s online casino product, encompassing a games library that includes slots, table and card games, video poker and a wide range of branded content. Tain’s licensees will also have access to a full range of management tools via Playtech’s unified administration system, the IMS.
 
A Playtech spokesman said that the deal opens up a wider range of operators to the Playtech offering, pointing out that by making its online casino product available through Tain’s cost-effective platform, smaller operators who might otherwise not have the opportunity to access this technology or content would now be able to do so.
 
Tain chief executive Christer Fahlstedt said: ‘This deal further strengthens our cooperation with Playtech, which is approaching its fifth anniversary. The ability to offer Playtech’s excellent content greatly strengthens our offering and is an important step in our commitment to supply small and medium sized operators with the very best products available.’
 
Mor Weizer, CEO at Playtech, noted:  "We….look forward to welcoming their operators onto the casino platform, having had considerable experience with the iPoker product for a number of years. This is made possible through Playtech’s cross-platform infrastructure which gives operators the ability to integrate a number of different products from our portfolio."
