NetEnt, a leading provider of premium gaming solutions to the world’s most successful online casino operators, has announced that it will be expanding its partnerships with DraftKings that will see it covering the operator’s online casinos in Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
Following the success of their initial collaboration in New Jersey which went live in August of last year, the parties will now team up in at least two more states.
In terms of the expanded agreement, NetEnt will launch its games with DraftKings in Pennsylvania in the near future and will also roll out content in West Virginia. The two have revealed that they will also endeavor to cooperate in new jurisdictions.
Brian Kraft, NetEnt Vice-President Commercial, Americas, commented that DraftKings’ size and market presence make this launch one of the most significant to date.
Kraft went on to say that they are proud to expand their relationship with such a well-known operator and look forward to continuing the success that they have achieved together so far.
He also said that they are thrilled to have such a renowned operator on board as they enter new jurisdictions.
NetEnt has made a fantastic start to its US operations after launching in New Jersey and Pennsylvania last year. Q2 2020 figures published in July revealed that the US now accounts for 10% of group GGR, with New Jersey’s contribution up 148% year-on-year and Pennsylvania revenue doubling quarter-over-quarter.
NetEnt obtained a license to operate in Pennsylvania in March of last year and launched its games in July 2019 with initial partners Penn National Gaming and Parx Casino.
