Adjarabet launches with Microgaming's Babelfish API
Georgia-based operator the first to launch a customisable poker client on the MPN using the supplier's new API
Microgaming has signed-up Georgia-based Adjarabet as the first customer to utilise its new Babelfish API, allowing the operator to tap into Microgaming Poker Network’s liquidity through its own customised poker client.
Multi-vertical Adjarabet developed the poker product in partnership with software development firm Singular, and its players will continue to have access to existing tables in Georgian currency but also add the ability to use the network tables when required.
“We were looking for a partner to help us grow and improve our poker offering; when Microgaming presented Babelfish we knew it was exactly what we needed,” Alastair Ives, head of poker at Adjarabet, said.
“The Babelfish API allows us to offer a product that is completely tailored to our customer base, eliminating the pain of migrating to a new software provider,” he continued.
According to rankings site PokerScout, Adjarabet operates one of the biggest standalone online poker rooms in the world and places 11th in the global rankings, ahead of the MPN which currently sits in 14th.
Over the last 24 hours Adajarabet recorded a peak of 1,362 cash players and a seven-day average of 850, compared to the MPN which had 1,144 and 650 respectively.
“Adjarabet has generated a lot of interest in the last couple of years and naturally I am thrilled that they have chosen Microgaming and our Babelfish technology to take their poker platform to the next level,” Alex Scott, head of poker at Microgaming, said.
“It has been a pleasure working with Singular and Adjarabet to do something that has never been done before in poker, and I’m very excited to see how we can grow poker together over the coming years,” he added.
The launch of Babelfish was first announced by the egaming supplier in January and enables Microgaming customers to create a customisable poker solution with access to the MPN’s cash games and tournament liquidity pools.
Microgaming said it plans to sign-up more operators in the next few months in addition to a number of “major changes” to its poker software.
