Game developer Pragmatic Play has signed an agreement with one of Switzerland's largest operators, Swiss Casinos, allowing the provider to expand its presence in the regulated market of the country. Local users will now have access to Pragmatic's full portfolio, which includes over 300 games such as Cowboy Coins™, The Knight King™, Sugar Rush™, and Gates of Olympus™. It is worth noting that the developer has previously entered into similar agreements with other Swiss operators, including 7melons (Grand Casino Bern) and PASINO.ch (Groupe Partouche).
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer of Pragmatic Play, stated, "We are thrilled to welcome Swiss Casinos to our growing operator base following a swift and seamless integration. Introducing Pragmatic Play's top games to a wider audience will further strengthen our position in Switzerland, where Swiss Casinos is a leading brand in the iGaming sector. We look forward to collaborating closely with the team as we continue to ramp up our operations in this key regulated market."
Patrick Mastai, Director of Online Casinos at Swiss Casinos, commented, "Pragmatic Play remains one of the most stable and unique slot game providers in the market. It makes perfect sense for us to partner with such a leading industry name on this new project, which will undoubtedly have a positive impact on our growth plans. We are excited about the opportunity to offer such a vast array of new games in our casinos and raise the stakes for slot enthusiasts."
Pragmatic Play was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in Malta, with offices around the world, including in India, the UK, and the Philippines. Swiss Casinos, on the other hand, focuses on the domestic market, with Swiss Casinos Holding being the sole shareholder of the establishments in Pfäffikon, Schaffhausen, and Zurich, as well as holding a controlling stake (98%) in the St. Gallen casino.
Notably, the Spanish gambling regulator has reported a 78% increase in revenue for the fourth quarter of 2022.
