Playtech has announced an agreement to provide Italian operator Buongiorno with its online casino platform.
Buongiorno is a global mobile entertainment company, providing a wide range of entertaining mobile content to more than 300 million users in 57 countries. It already offers Italian online players poker and bingo under its increasingly popular Winga brand, in full compliance with the Italian regulations set out by AAMS.
Under the agreement, Playtech will provide Buongiorno with its online casino product, to be launched in Italy following the regulation of online casino gaming, expected in early 2011. A range of innovative products and services, including mobile games, will bring unique new ways of playing to the Italian market.
Buongiorno’s chief executive, Andrea Casalini, commented: "Buongiorno’s egaming offering, Winga, is set to develop across two directions in the coming few months, once regulations allow. Firstly, via the expansion on our existing gaming offering, to include lotteries, casino games and more; this is where our casino agreement with Playtech will play a key part, enabling this exciting expansion to happen. Secondly, the provision of the Winga offering on the mobile channel, leveraging Buongiorno’s 10 years of experience in this sector."
Playtech’s chief executive, Mor Weizer, added: "This agreement is a significant step forward for Playtech in Italy."
