BUSY BOSS MEDIA
Cyprus and Italian operators sign up for poker and IVT products
It's been another busy week for Swedish turnkey provider Boss Media it
appears. The company has finalised two agreements with Cyprus-based gaming operators
and completed an IVT deal with Zest Gaming, an Italian manufacturer and
operator of gaming terminals.
The Cyprus-based operators Bashedger and The BetArena will go
live with Boss’s poker software and network from August this year.
In addition, there are eight more Hellenic customers to be added to the list
of Boss-linked operators. These are: BetClick, Euro Telegroup, Hellenic Poker,
Magic Number, Fun Time Bingo, Maharaja Club, Mr Poker and Fortuno.
Johan Berg, president and chief executive of Boss Media, said: “Succeeding
with linking 10 new operators to our network in the first months of the year
demonstrates that Boss Media has a highly competitive poker offering.”
The Italian Zest deal involves Boss furnishing the company with three games
to be placed on their cabinets for the domestic market.
Roberto Cian, chief executive of Zest Gaming, said he was pleased to
be able to offer Boss Media content on his companys hardware platform. "The
platform is the most advanced in the market so together with Boss Media's superior
graphics and game content, we will have an extremely competitive package,"
he said.
Ten concessions have been given by the Italian state for gaming operators, who
collectively hold around 170 thousand gaming machines.
Henrik Sandin, manager of the interactive video terminal (IVT) division
at Boss Media, said: “We are happy to join forces with Zest Gaming. This
will strengthen our knowledge of one of the biggest markets in Europe. Not forgetting
how beneficial this will be to us when the new virtual lottery terminal law
comes in to place as we would already have a head start in learning what Italian
players are looking for."
