The Rizk casino brand is now live in Germany, announced the Gaming Innovation Group, after receiving the green light from Germany’s nationalised online gaming authority.

The launch is part of the Zecure deal in which Betsson purchased GiG’s B2C assets in April 2020.

Rizk is powered by GiG’s B2B platform which is well suited to complex regulatory markets such as Germany’s.

“Our excellent relationship with Betsson and the continuing expansion of our original deal highlights the strength of our platform, technology and managed services teams,” said Marcel Elfersy, CCO at GiG.

“We’ve positioned ourselves to be able to support our partners’ growth aspirations, understanding where those opportunities are and ensuring we not only meet those expectations, but exceed them. It is this ability to offer a localised and personalised service to a tier 1 operator like Betsson, that we believe places GiG as a market leader in the B2B space.”

Andrew Valenzia, commercial director at Betsson, added: “This is a fantastic milestone for Betsson Group having such a legendary brand in Rizk return to the market. Our main focus is to provide our German customers the best player experience in the industry, that is safe and sustainable.

“The expansion into Germany reaffirms our fantastic partnership with GiG, who continue to provide us with an excellent service that goes beyond our expectations.”
