A new, major agreement has been signed between Holland Casino and Playtech plc covering an expanded, long-term software and services agreement.
The Dutch operator, with 14 casinos in a state-owned monopoly, is now expanding into the online gambling market with the change in regulations in the Netherlands this October.
Playtech will become Holland Casino’s strategic technology supplier with a full, turnkey multi-channel technology and some ancillary services. It will include the IMS platform, sports betting, online casino, live casino, poker and bingo products. Playtech will build a live casino facility in the immediate vicinity of one of Holland Casino’s existing locations.
Erwin van Lambaart, Holland Casino, CEO, said: "This agreement will provide the technology and expertise required to ensure we will deliver the leading online offering in the Netherlands. Holland Casino has high ambitions for the new online market and at the same time we are determined to play a leading role when it comes to responsible gaming and player protection.
He added: "We look forward to the online market launching in the Netherlands in October 2021 and to a long and successful cooperation with Playtech as we work together to capture this exciting opportunity."
