RubyPlay, an innovative iGaming development studio, has announced a significant partnership with Italian operator Sisal, part of Flutter Entertainment. This collaboration marks an important step in RubyPlay’s efforts to enhance its footprint in the Italian market. The partnership will see RubyPlay integrating its popular slot game portfolio, including the notable “Immortal Ways Diamonds,” onto Sisal’s online platform, which is aimed at capturing a larger player base across Italy.
“Immortal Ways Diamonds,” launched in August 2023, has been described by RubyPlay as one of its most successful releases. This game introduces a novel mechanic that provides a unique and engaging slot experience, setting it apart from traditional offerings. Dr. Eyal Loz, Chief Product Officer at RubyPlay, expressed his enthusiasm about the collaboration, noting, “Partnering with Sisal, a trailblazer in the Italian gaming industry, marks an exciting chapter in RubyPlay’s journey.”
A Rich History and a Promising Future
Established in 1946, Sisal boasts a diverse offering that includes lotteries, betting, and entertainment devices across both retail and online channels. This agreement with RubyPlay not only underscores Sisal’s commitment to enhancing its online game offerings but also strengthens its relationship with parent company Flutter Entertainment. Dr. Loz added, “This agreement not only reinforces our dedication to delivering premium slot content to regulated markets but also strengthens our valued relationship with Flutter Entertainment.”
Technical Synergies and Market Expansion
Beyond the strategic partnership, RubyPlay has also engaged with Internet Vikings for a robust VMware cloud hosting solution. This technical collaboration involves the use of bare metal servers hosted near Atlantic City, enhancing data security and operational smoothness for RubyPlay’s offerings.
Italy is described by RubyPlay as a “prosperous region” for growth, with this partnership being one of many initiatives undertaken in the region over the last year. The partnership aims to set new standards for player engagement and entertainment across Italy, reinforcing RubyPlay’s commitment to delivering unique and innovative gaming experiences.
Flutter Entertainment’s Financial Prospects
In related news, Flutter Entertainment, the parent company of Sisal and a leading name in online sports betting and iGaming, has announced plans to release its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of 2024 on March 4, 2025. Alongside these results, Flutter has been executing a significant share buyback program, with plans to cancel the acquired shares. This strategic financial maneuver is aimed at returning capital to shareholders and potentially enhancing the company’s stock value and market position.
Flutter’s management will host a conference call to discuss these results and answer questions, further highlighting the company’s proactive approach to stakeholder communication and market strategy. These partnerships, technological investments, and strong financial maneuvers position both RubyPlay and Flutter Entertainment for sustained growth and market leadership, particularly in the burgeoning Italian market.
