Playtech extends partnership with Betfred

Betfred and Playtech have expanded their partnership in a multi-year extension deal that sees Playtech products in Betfred shops.

The two businesses have a 12-year history of working together.

Included in the extension is an increase in the amount of Playtech Self Service Betting Terminals (SSBTs) in Betfred shops. Playtech reports that terminal numbers have grown by 50% in the previous two years and installing more will help meet customer demand for sports betting SSBTs.

Additionally, the terminals will also feature horse and dog racing for the first time.

“This new deal demonstrates the importance of our ongoing relationship with market leader Playtech,” Betfred group chief operating officer Mark Stebbings said. “The importance of betting terminals to our retail offering continues to increase, becoming an increasingly essential gaming component for our customers and, therefore, a crucial part of the future of our company.

Playtech extends exclusive SSBT deal with Paddy Power

Playtech has announced the extension of its exclusive partnership with major retail and online brand Paddy Power.

The new multi-year deal builds on a longstanding relationship between the supplier and the Flutter Entertainment-owned operator, dating back more than 10 years.

The Playtech board approved an offer from land-based slots giant Aristocrat, but shareholders ultimately rejected this deal.

A group called TTB Partners then announced that it was considering a bid of its own, and received support from Playtech chief executive Mor Weizer (pictured). However, amid changing market conditions, TTB ultimately declined to submit a bid for the ga..
