Global Gaming signs platform deal with Finnplay

Global Gaming has signed an agreement with Finnish platform provider, Finnplay, which could give the operator a chance to continue using its brands should its licence revocation be confirmed by the Swedish courts.

The agreement gives Global Gaming access to Finnplay’s full range platforms solutions, according to a statement.

Finnplay is licensed for online casino in Sweden, and in a range of other countries including the UK, Malta and Denmark.

In an email, Global Gaming CEO Tobias Fagerlund said no brands would be migrated immediately but that the long-term plan was to do so.

“Even Sweden is an opportunity within the scope of cooperation,” Fagerlund said.

The deal suggests the firm could run the Ninja Casino brand on the Finnplay platform through a white-label agreement.

The SGA declined to comment when asked by EGR whether it would allow this.

Global Gaming had an approximate 5% market share in Sweden before having its licence revoked and being forced to take its sites down.

The operator is appealing the revocation, although has already faced several setbacks in court.

Fagerlund said in a press release on Wednesday: “Finnplay’s experience in providing online casino games and their expertise and deep understanding of the Nordic gaming markets sets them apart as an ideal business partner.

“The cooperation creates long-term opportunities for us to continue to deliver the best gaming experience to our customers in all markets we want to operate in. This is an important step for us, and we look forward to launching the partnership.”
