(Alliance News) - Gaming Realms PLC on Wednesday said it has launched new Slingo Originals online casino games with Sky Betting & Gaming in the UK and with Boston-based betting firm DraftKings in the US.
Gaming Realms shares were 14% higher at 6.15 pence each in London on Wednesday morning.
The London-based firm struck a three-year partnership with Sky Betting & Gaming which will see the Slingo Rainbow Riches slot machine online games available on the Sky Vegas platform.
Sky Vegas, like bookmaker Sky Bet, is a division operated by Sky Betting & Gaming, a subsidiary of Canadian firm Stars Group Inc. Stars is the object of an agreed tie-up with Paddy Power owner Flutter Entertainment PLC.
"This will be followed by a further roll-out of Slingo Originals content across Sky Betting & Gaming's portfolio sites," Gaming Realms said.
In the US, the Slingo Originals content is now available in New Jersey, as part of a deal with DraftKings, a company known for its fantasy sports platform. Like the Sky Betting & Gaming deal, it is a three-year partnership.
Gaming Realms Interim Chief Executive Officer and Non-Executive Chair Michael Buckley said: "Our expanding portfolio of Slingo games continues to grow in popularity and these partnerships are testament to the quality of the content that we at Gaming Realms produce. We are extremely pleased to be partnering with such esteemed operators
"These agreements help to underpin the board's confidence in the year ahead."
