Software providers Playtech have been in discussion with various U.S. gambling operators, as the regulation of online gaming looms larger. Should the American stance on online gambling be altered or removed, then British based company Playtech are in prime position to take advantage by joining forces with major gambling firms such as MGM Resorts International, Penn National Gaming and Harrah’s Entertainment. So far, Playtech have been able to avoid any legal repercussions by leasing out their online casino software to other businesses.
Another positive of Playtech’s bid to move into America is that they’ve already worked in America and continue to do so, with considerable success, in a joint venture with Scientific Games. This partnership targeted government lotteries and was announced in January of this year.
“We have a lot of interest from operators in the U.S.” confirmed Playtech CEO Mor Weizman. This interest certainly looks set to continue in the expectation that online gambling will soon be legal in the U.S.
