Playtech is happy to have repeated its previous strategy in Canada, as the supplier first entered the regulated iGaming market in the country on the first day of Ontario’s own online casino launch back in 2022.

Playtech has also been building its presence in the United States through individual deals with prominent casinos. The company signed a partnership with Fanatics Casino in April, launching its host of games with the prominent brand.

Similarly, Playtech pursued a separate deal with Ember Casino in New Jersey at the end of June.
