Evolution Gaming Expands in Italy with Planetwin365 Deal

Live Casino supplier Evolution Gaming today announced that it has extended its footprint in the Italian online gambling market through a recent supply deal with locally licensed operator Planetwin365, a brand of SKS365 Group.

Under the terms of the agreement between Evolution and the iGaming operation, Planetwin365 has gone live with the provider’s full range of Live Casino games in Italy. Planetwin365 is among the leaders in the provision of sports betting and online gaming services in the lucrative Italian market. Aside from its digital operation, the brand also runs betting shops around Italy.

Evolution’s casino table games, including the native Italian Venezia portfolio, are now available to Planetwin365’s Italian customers. In addition, gambling customers can also play the provider’s recently released Super Sic Bo and Free Bet Blackjack as well as numerous poker variants. The Italy-facing operator has also rolled out the growing number of Evolution’s game show-style titles, including its Deal Or No Deal Live game created in partnership with Endemol Shine.

Commenting on the addition of Live Casino content by Evolution, Francesco Gaziano, Chief Marketing Officer of SKS365 Group, said that they are excited to be collaborating with the Swedish supplier and to be “adding such a rich and valuable set of live games” to their existing offering. Mr. Gaziano added that they are particularly excited by the potential of Evolution’s game show games.

Recent Expansion

Of their latest B2B client, Evolution’s Chief Commercial Officer, Sebastian Johannisson, said that they are proud to be part of the further development of the Planetwin365 brand and its content offering and that with the operator being one of the leaders in the Italian betting market, they have secured a “key customer in what is a very important European market for Evolution.”

The provider recently manifested its interest in expanding across Europe with the announcement that it has been certified to enter Switzerland’s online gambling space. The Swiss gambling market was reorganized early this year and first online gambling operations were ready to be debuted on July 1.

In a press release from late last month, Evolution announced that it has penned a content supply deal with Swiss land-based casino Grand Casino Baden to supply the gambling venue’s online casino with its content. Grand Casino Baden was one of the first four brick-and-mortar casinos to receive regulatory and legislative approval to go live with regulated online gambling under Switzerland’s new legal framework.

It was last month again when Evolution dropped its new dice game – Lightning Dice. The game was the latest addition to the company’s Lightning range of titles. The new title features “electrifying user interface.” Its black and gold Art Deco setting and its random multipliers that can multiply winning by up to 1,000 times make the game particularly entertaining.

Lightning Dice was the second game in Evolution’s Lightning series following the widely successful Lightning Roulette which scooped multiple iGaming awards in the months after its launch.
