Bwin launches Italian live casino with Evolution
Operator launches localised live dealer blackjack and roulette under the bwin brand after doing the same with Gioco Digitale last year.
Bwin.party has launched an Italian-facing live casino with Evolution Gaming for its bwin.it brand, supplementing live blackjack offering already live on Gioco Digitale.
As with the Gioco Digitale launch last November, bwin’s offering features blackjack and roulette, with native dealers brought in from land-based casinos in Italy.
The launch is the second in as many months in the country from Evolution, which was named live casino supplier of the year at last week’s eGaming Review B2B Awards.
In late April Lottomatica launched its own Evolution-powered live casino in its core Italian market, including blackjack, roulette and baccarat. The supplier also launched a dedicated casino room for Unibet, hosted in its Riga studios, and signed an exclusive deal with Dutch operator Oranje Casino to supply two localised live casino tables, both in March.
Bwin’s Southern European director Paolo di Feo noted that “bwin enjoys an extremely strong brand presence in Italy,” adding that “The Evolution Live Casino platform was the natural choice for bwin as it gives us the opportunity to further strengthen our brand in this local market with dedicated tables and native speaking dealers from day one.”
Evolution Italy CEO Gionata La Torre said: “We’re now delighted to have been selected by yet another key global brand “ and to be able to offer bwin the flexibility of branding and service they desire.”
