New Jersey games developer chooses Gibraltar datacentre for its European push

The up-and-coming New Jersey online gambling software developer High 5 Games has chosen Continent 8 Technologies' Gibraltar datacentre as its operational platform for continued penetration into the European market.
In a press release this week the software developer says that Continent 8 is one of the most secure and well equipped hosting centres available, and is ideal for its continued push into the European market.
In the last six months High 5 Games has been making significant headway in the European and U.K. markets and the company's business development team has been finalising a number of integration and managed solution agreements.
The commitment to Continent 8 Technologies is one of several definitive steps in establishing a presence in Gibraltar, says Peter Williams, director of global sales for Continent 8.
"We are pleased to welcome High 5 Games, who operate the highest-rated social casino on Facebook, on board as a new customer. High 5 Games' choice of Continent 8 reflects our continued investment in our datacentre footprint to provide our customers with a secure and reliable platform from which to operate and grow their business."
High 5 has in addition secured office space and equipment in Gibraltar, and is in the process of applying for a Gibraltar remote gaming software supplier licence.
The company has been delivering its games to European operators through a distribution deal with International Game Technology and its Vault remote gaming server (see previous InfoPowa reports).
Once the Gibraltar gaming license is finalised, Vault will carry a portfolio of nearly a hundred H5G video slot titles to European and U.K. i-gaming operators looking for more diverse content.
In July the games developer inked a distribution deal with NYX Interactive.

Brian Cullingworth

Infopowa news was a staple of Casinomeister’s news from 2000 until 2019. Brian Cullingworth was the main writer, contributor, and was one of the most knowledgeable persons I have ever known involved in the online casino industry.

We first met in January 2001 at the ICE in London where I observed him going booth to booth interviewing online casino, software, and licensing jurisdiction representatives. Brian was also heavily involved with our forum as “Jetset“, he was involved as an informal consultant to eCOGRA, the OPA, and was a player advocate who assisted countless aggrieved players with his connections to industry folks. He also published “Casino Cautions” via Infopowa news for quite a number of years. These can be found in our news archives.

His passing in February 2019 was a dark day for us. He will be forever missed.
