Online slots provider Red Tiger has gone live in the Swiss iGaming space with Switzerland’s first online casino, the company said in a press release published this past Monday.
Red Tiger has teamed up with Grand Casino Baden’s jackpots.ch online gaming operation and platform provider Gamanza for the initial launch of 19 gaming titles.
Jackpots.ch previously operated as a social casino but was able to go live with real money gaming options following the reorganization of the Swiss online gambling market in early July. Grand Casino Baden was among the first four land-based casinos to receive approval by Swiss regulators to launch online gaming services under the new regulatory regime.
Jackpots.ch players now have access to 19 of Red Tiger’s most popular online slots, including Mystery Reels and Dragon’s Fire as well as Pirates’ Plenty, which was recently nominated for Slot of the Year at the upcoming Global Gaming Awards.
It was in April when news about Red Tiger’s entry into Switzerland’s reorganized market first emerged. The company said back then that 30 of its most popular games had been certified to be rolled out across operators licensed to run online casinos on the territory of Switzerland.
Under the new Swiss gambling law, which took effect on January 1, 2019, only the country’s land-based casinos can provide online gambling services. Foreign companies are not permitted to service Swiss customers, unless they have formed partnerships with local brick-and-mortar casinos.
Introducing Swiss Players to Red Tiger’s Title
Of their Swiss entry, Red Tiger Commercial Director Chris Looney said that they are excited to introduce their content to a new country and that they are looking forward to building a strong partnership with Grand Casino Baden and their platform provider Gamanza.
Marcel Tobler, Online Casino Leader at Grand Casino Baden, added that they are delighted to be the first operator to have gained access to Red Tiger’s games and that “having internationally renowned and commercially proven games in our arsenal is a real boost at launch.”
Grand Casino Baden’s online casino is powered by the Gamanza online gaming platform. Commenting on the launch of the jackpots.ch real money casino, Gamanza founder and CEO Magnus Lindberg said that the beginning of their partnership with Red Tiger is a “proud moment” for his company.
Mr. Lindberg added that he has no doubt Red Tiger will enjoy great success in Switzerland and “add a lot of value to our offering moving forward.”
Earlier this month, Red Tiger announced that its entire range of online slots has gone live with Scandinavian online gambling operator Paf to further cement the provider’s foothold in the region and in other regulated markets.
The online casino software supplier has also recently announced that its Daily Drop Jackpot Network paid out more than £2.5 million during its first four months, thus becoming Red Tiger’s fastest growing jackpot product. The company launched the network in April. It is available across Red Tiger’s entire range of online slots.
