Business is booming for content provider Pragmatic Play after lauching a new dedicated Live Blackjack studio with premier online sports betting brand, Betway, which, along with multi-brand online casino, Spin, is owned by Guernsey-based holding company Super Group (NYSE: SGHC).
At the same time, the supplier announced that it will be a diamond sponsor and also exhibiting at the Brazilian iGaming Summit later this month.
Live Casino Success:
Inking similar deals with crypto-friendly online casino, Roobet, and live casino operator Stake over the past month or so, the provider’s “major deal” with Betway enhances the relationship that was established back in December 2020 with Pragmatic’s slots portfolio and was expanded further in March last year with its live casino vertical.
Courtesy of the new agreement, the bespoke live dealer Blackjack studio will be outfitted with Betway branding, providing customers with an unparalleled immersive environment, reminiscent of land-based gambling, to enjoy what is, one of, if not the most, popular casino game there is.
