Online and retail betting supplier SIS has struck a deal with BAGS to launch a new greyhound streaming service for its international customers.

As part of the deal SIS will provide pictures and associated data as the popular UK retail product moves online to international customers for the first time.

“We’re delighted to bring British greyhound racing to an international audience who have not been able to interact with this product before,” Dominic Ford, BAGS chairman, said.

“The significant new revenues we expect to achieve from this innovative service will be ploughed back into the grassroots of our sport,” Ford added.

William Hill has extended its partnership with NYX Gaming Group to launch hundreds of new online slots games via the supplier’s proprietary Open Gaming System (OGS).

The deal will see the operator integrate the slots titles via NYX subsidiary NextGen Gaming which has incorporated a number of games from third-parties.

“I am delighted to have achieved this launch milestone with our newest partners at BoyleSports,” NYX Gaming Group commercial director, David Johnson, said.

“NYX OGS significantly widens the deployment possibilities for our operator partners, given our industry best distribution network of real money wagering games,” he added.

CORE Gaming has unveiled its new £3 instant-win scratch card game World Candy on Sky Vegas.

The HTML5-focused supplier’s latest scratch card title offers a jackpot prize of £60,000 and the opportunity to win cash prizes from just three completed words.

“With slick game play and big prizes on offer, we are sure that Word Candy will be a hit across desktop and mobile devices,” Justin Chamberlain, CEO of CORE Gaming, said.

“We are thrilled that the game has launched on Sky Vegas and our other HTML5 mobile titles – ‘Sky Blackjack’, ‘Sky 3 Card Brag’ and ‘Scratch4’, which offers a suite of four scratch cards – have also now been made available to users of the Sky Vegas desktop lobby,” he continued.

Gaming supplier iSoftBet today announced its premier range of flash and mobile gaming content has launched on VideoSlots.com.

The deal comes after the online casino operator recently received its UK remote gaming licence as it looks to move beyond its core Scandinavian markets.

“The expertise shown from the VideoSlots team has instilled confidence and trust from the onset, and we’re extremely happy with the close partnership we’ve developed since signing with the online casino,” iSoftBet group sales and business development manager, Luci Apostolou, said.

William Hill Vegas has signed a deal to become sponsor of the upcoming Bad Intentions boxing match between Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte next month.

The deal marks the UK’s first major foray into professional boxing following previous marketing deals in amateur boxing through its three-year deal with the Haringey Box Cup.

“Bad Intentions is going to be the biggest British boxing show of the year and we’re delighted to be associated with this highly anticipated sporting event,” Alex O’Shaughnessy, chief marketing officer at William Hill, said.

“Vegas is synonymous with the sport of boxing and we believe the William Hill Vegas brand is an ideal fit for our first venture into big time boxing,” he continued.

Mr Green has launched a new mobile suite, including a refreshed responsive mobile website and accompanying iOS and Android apps.

Bo Wänghammar, CEO at Mr Green Online Casino, said the overhaul was a “total refactoring” of the firm’s technology and product range, adding that the operator accepts it now has to compete against general entertainment providers as well as other operators.

“We didn’t have much when it came to apps before,” said Wänghammar. “We didn’t have a fully native app, we didn’t have an Android app and we had two different platforms for mobile and desktop which will now be merged into one.”
