Developer and supplier of B2B software, services, and gaming content for the online gambling industry in the United States GAN, recently re-branded from GameAccount Network, announced today that it has inked a partnership agreement with the country’s largest operator of Native American casinos to supply the latter with its Simulated Gaming proprietary social gaming solution in the Southwest.
The supplier explained that it has been selected after a long and comprehensive diligence process due to its capability to offer both real money and social gaming options from a single technology solution – its GameSTACK Internet Gaming System.
GAN did not reveal the gambling operator it has partnered with and said that it would disclose its identity after certain regulatory and commercial approvals are granted.
As mentioned above, the company’s new partner is the largest one to have ever contracted with it. GAN is to make its Simulated Gaming solution available to the casino operator’s gambling customers sometime in the second half of the year.
Generally speaking, GAN has designed its Simulated Gaming online gaming service with the intent to provide customers of land-based US casinos with social gaming experience across different channels. The solution offers more than 200 slot and table games, with poker, blackjack, and backgammon being only few of these.
GAN explained that its new client will have the opportunity to provide players with innovative online gaming experience through the utilization of the supplier’s social mobile gaming and virtual reality offering in order to be able to attract the attention of a broader customer demographic beyond the traditional social casino one.
In addition, GAN’s latest partner will have the supplier’s GameSTACK IGS platform installed in the summer, thus making it possible for the casino operator to provide real money mobile gaming options at its property in future and after receiving the necessary regulatory approval.
Commenting on the latest announcement, GAN CEO Dermot Smurfit said that the deal is a landmark one for his company and is another indication for the Simulated Gaming model’s commercial appeal to major US gambling operators.
Mr. Smurfit also noted that their new partner’s multi-million-dollar commitment to the deal “represents material revenue” for the supplier in 2016 and is expected to contribute considerable earnings over the years to come.
