ITALY'S MICROGAME SIGNS ANOTHER BETTING DEAL
22 January 2010
Virtual sportsbetting games will be available
on the People's Network
Italy's giant Internet service provider, Microgame S.p.A.
has signed another online betting deal, this time with
the UK based specialist software provider Football 1x2
Ltd.
The deal will result in Football 1X2 virtual
sportsbetting games being integrated into Microgame's
People's Network within the next few months.
Football 1x2 Ltd. will provide the current range of 24
virtual, numerical and themed Panorama games for
Microgame's catalogue of skill games and games of
chance, available on some 100 Italian gaming website
members of the People’s Network, which has over 1.4
million registered users.
The main product is the
revolutionary virtual football game “Football1x2”, a
flash player product which simulates a whole football
season in an hour. The complex game creates a full
fixture list from the English Premiership to the Italian
Serie A right through to over 40 leagues around the
world covering the most popular bet types.
World
Cup 2010 will be the newest addition to the virtual
football games. World Cup South Africa will follow on
from the immensely popular Germany '06 – still played
three years on – with a 100 percent replica of the teams
and betting opportunities around the 2010 World Cup
tournament proper.
Through a broadcast game
delivered every 20 minutes, players are faced with every
game in the World Cup schedule from the group stages
right through to the World Cup final – 72 times every 24
hours – with ample opportunity to bet.
The World
Cup South Africa game follows Football 1X2’s suite of
virtual football games covering all major domestic
leagues, the Champions League and the European
Championship.
Fabrizio D’Aloia, President and
CEO of Microgame S.p.A. said this week: “The Italian
online gaming market is moving very fast these days.
Consequently it is important that our gaming operator
clients can offer continuously new and challenging
products to the players.
"Many of our clients
come from the sports betting sector and look for new
models to continue to win customers and compete on the
market. Football1x2 is therefore a particularly
interesting product because it combines the guaranteed
margins of instant win games with the emotional
involvement of traditional sports betting.”
James
Randall Doughty, chief operating officer of Football1x2
Limited said: “We are delighted to announce the
partnership with Microgame for the supply of our
Panorama gaming platform. We feel sure our games will
naturally complement the current channels Microgame
offers its partners.”
Last (December) month
Microgame signed with RM Royal Media Ltd. for the
integration of Rummy games into the People’s Network in
the first quarter 2010.
