Poll: Who will win Canada's largest egaming contract?
Several operators and service providers believed to be in the running for the CA$450m contract, which was opened to bids last week.
North America’s largest egaming contract opened for bids last week with the deal to provide the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) with an initial gaming platform and casino games believed to be worth up to CA$75m in profit to the eventual supplier.
This estimation, along with Ontario’s status as the largest Canadian province, make the contract the biggest in North America outside the US, and consequently competition is likely to be fierce.
Among those expected to be in contention for the contract are OpenBet and GTECH with existing deals in British Columbia and Québec, Dragonfish, bwin.party, Intralot, Camelot and Scientific Games and Playtech joint venture partnership SciPlay, while land-based contenders are unlikely to stay silent on the matter.
In this week’s poll, we’re asking you to predict who you think will claim victory next year. Will an existing egaming operator win out, will it be a service provider, a lottery specialist or perhaps a consortium involving land-based players such as IGT or Bally.
