Playtech nets five-year Flutter full service igaming contract extension

Playtech Plc has secured a further tier-1 operator contract extension, as Flutter Entertainment renews its lead igaming supplier services contract with the FTSE250 technology group. 

Securing a new five-year contract, Playtech Plc will continue to serve as lead online gambling software and games supplier for Flutter’s Paddy Power, Betfair and Sky Casino brands.

Flutter branded Playtech as a key strategic technology partner, as its flagship brands pursue sustainable growth across heavily regulated European online gambling markets.  

“We are pleased to have signed an extension agreement with Playtech. Over the years we have built a very successful partnership and are excited to continue offering our customers access to software from one of the world’s leading suppliers of high-quality gaming product,” commented Conor Grant, CEO of Flutter’s UK and Ireland Division.

The partnership will see Playtech continue to provide exclusive dedicated studios for Paddy Power, Betfair and Sky Casino for their live casino offerings, including the exclusive launch of Sky Vegas Live Casino. 

Playtech underlines its strong 2021 commercial momentum with the company securing tier-1 igaming extension contracts with Kindred Group and Norsk Tipping.  

Shimon Akad, Chief Operating Officer at Playtech, said: “Flutter is one of Playtech’s key strategic partners, and so this new long-term agreement to supply our innovative software and services across four key product verticals is significant.

“This is testament to the long-standing and strong relations between Flutter and Playtech, and we look forward to continuing to work with Flutter in its core markets to support Paddy Power, Betfair and Sky Casino over the next five years.”
