European online casino operator 7Red will use the Mobile Stakes platform to bring its real-money games to the iPad and smartphones.
Mobile Stakes, the real-money gaming industry’s first cloud-based game streaming platform for online casino games, enables online casinos to take their flash web-based casino and sports betting games directly to mobile devices without any reprogramming or redesign of the game.
Using the platform, online casino operators can offer their customers a mobile version of all their popular games with the exact same gameplay, payouts, security and identity protection offered by the online casino. In addition, mobile players get the same signing bonuses, monthly promotions and offers they’d get on the online site.
“Online casino operators can finally give their players the mobile freedom they’ve been clamouring for,” said Peter Relan, founder of YouWeb Incubator that backed Mobile Stakes.
Ido Raviv, CEO of 7Red, added: “Without the Mobile Stakes platform, our portfolio of 75 games ranging from blackjack, roulette, video poker and soft games simply could not be brought to the iPad in a short time and with no re-development in HTML5 or native code.”
Mobile Stakes technology is also suited for web and Facebook based social casino gaming companies that currently do not have real-money gaming offerings. Zynga recently announced an online casino game, while Electronic Arts subsidiary PopCap Games recently released Lucky Gem Casino; however, both accept only virtual currency in their casino themed games.
