GTECH IN MAJOR ONLINE GAMBLING PRODUCTS LAUNCHED BY NORSK TIPPING
2014-02-04

The Norwegian state lottery Norsk nfl football betting Online Bingo Play Slots Online in US NFL Odds Tipping has launched its first range of i-gaming products for the Norwegian market following a content and administrative supply deal with GTech.

The deployment of 65 games is the largest launch of its kind in the Lotterys history.

Norsk Tipping was tasked by the Norwegian Ministry of Culture to develop online games for the Norwegian public, but with a strong responsible gambling element.

The idea was clearly to provide Norwegian online punters with a safe and credible alternative to offshore operators who do not pay Norwegian taxes.

With this launch, Norsk Tipping is challenging foreign betting companies not licensed in Norway by providing attractive games that are not as aggressive as those of the cross-border operators," says Norsk Tipping CEO Torbjrn Almlid.

This is a much-needed and long-awaited renewal of Norsk Tipping as a provider of money games in Norway. Norsk Tipping must be up-to-date to survive as a gaming company and provide customers with attractive games. We will launch a series of new games in 2014 and we will especially concentrate on new games for mobile, Almlid added.

GTech has supplied Norsk Tipping with its iBingo product; an iCasino portfolio including a range of slot games; and e -Instants designed to ensure that the new portfolio appeals to a wide range of players.

The games, which are available to registered Norwegian players across mobile, tablet, and desktop channels, were launched mid-January this year, and are supported by GTech's hosting and operational administrative services.

GTech International CEO Walter Bugno said his companys products enable Norsk Tipping to track player behaviour across every gaming device, giving the lottery unparalleled insights into player behaviour, and strengthening its Responsible Gaming program.

As part of the five-year agreement with Norsk Tipping, GTech has supplied the lottery with its Player Services and Player Account Manager back-office system.

Norsk Tipping is the latest Nordic customer to choose GTechs e-gaming games, platforms, and services; GTech also supplies Veikkaus in Finland and Svenska Spel in Sweden with its interactive solutions.

2013-04-24

Online gambling industry observers will be taking an interested look at the new Sunday Times Rich List, due for publication this weekend and detailing the richest folks in Britain.

Pre-publication publicity suggests that the Coates family, which owns the popular bet365 internet gambling enterprise, will be among these super-successful people, and is close to becoming Britain's first gambling billionaires.

According to the Sunday Times, online gamblers lost so much last year that Britains top ten internet betting magnates are each worth more than GBP 100 million. Internet betting exchanges, virtual poker tables and web bingo have all proved lucrative, the newspaper notes.

Peter Coates (75) his daughter Denise (45) and son John (43) have an estimated wealth of GBP 925 million just 13 years after they founded bet365, which is thought to be worth more than GBP 800 million.

Denise Coates featured in last year's Rich List, which reported that she heads a company that saw profits in 2009-10 soar from GBP 66.5 million to almost GBP 101 million on the back of GBP 420 million in sales. Profits were again up in 2010 -2011 to GBP 98.6 million on GBP 501.4 million in sales.
