Cryptologic signs Loto-Québec deal
Deal follows software provider's acquisition by Amaya Gaming last week.
Software provider Cryptologic has signed a multi-year agreement to supply Société de Jeu Virtuel du Québec, the egaming division of Canadian lottery operator Loto-Québec, with a selection of its online casino games.
The deal follows last week’s announcement that Canadian software supplier Amaya reached an agreement to acquire Cryptologic for $36m, and will see the company supply a total of 14 titles. The games portfolio will be integrated onto OpenBet’s fixed-odds platform over the course of the year, with the first already live on Société de Jeu Virtuel du Québec’s Espacejeux site.
Amaya signed a similar agreement last year “ its first in North America “ after its proposal to supply content to Loto-Québec was accepted in December.
Commenting on the deal, Francois Poulin, general manager of Espacejeux said: “We remain at the forefront of the gaming industry by banking on our integrity, dynamism and innovation. We are committed to delivering on our mission to manage legal and responsible online gaming and working with CryptoLogic will enable us to provide a more diverse array of games for Quebecers, and enhance their online experience.”
