NetEnt, a leading provider of digital casino solutions, is getting ready to enter the new regulated market in Pennsylvania by entering into a customer agreement with Penn Online Entertainment, LLC, which is a subsidiary of Penn National Gaming’s Penn Interactive Ventures.
In terms of the agreement signed by the parties, NetEnt will deliver its sought-after online casino games to Penn National Gaming’s customers in Pennsylvania.
The agreement follows the completion of Penn National’s acquisition of Pinnacle Entertainment for an amount of $2.8bn earlier this month.
NetEnt also entered into a customer agreement with Churchill Downs earlier this month to supply content to the operator in the New Jersey online casino market. NetEnt’s presence in New Jersey is enhanced by the deal after it already formed partnerships with Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa, Hard Rock Atlantic City and Tropicana.
The Managing Director of NetEnt Americas, Erik Nyman, commented on the agreement by saying that this deal marks NetEnt’s first customer signing for Pennsylvania and is an important step in their growth strategy in North America.
Nyman went on to say that he looks forward to their collaboration with Penn National and believes that their entertaining online games will be much appreciated by players in Pennsylvania.
Chris Sheffield, the Managing Director of Penn Interactive Ventures and Senior Vice President of Penn National Gaming, said that they are pleased to offer NetEnt’s portfolio of online games to their HollywoodCasino.com customers and eagerly look forward to partnering with NetEnt to launch online gaming in Pennsylvania.
