Exciting Partnerships

When it comes to partnerships in North America, Chris McGinnis highlighted the agreements that Playtech has secured over the past few years with BetParx in Pennsylvania and with Hard Rock Digital, the interactive gaming and sports betting division of Hard Rock International and Seminole Gaming.

The live casino supplier has also recently strengthened its position in Canada by signing a subscription agreement with NorthStar Gaming, the Canadian online casino and sportsbook operator from Toronto. The agreement will give Playtech the opportunity to expand its stake in NorthStar Gaming with shares worth another 10 million Canadian dollars.

Playtech had already made a strategic investment of 12.25 million Canadian dollars in NorthStar Gaming back in February 2023 and that deal also added Chris McGinnis to the Canadian company’s board as a non-executive director.
