Playtech teams up with Mansion to power its launch in Ontario

Gaming technology provider Playtech and iGaming brand Mansion are teaming up to launch in new markets and strengthen their existing relationship “as long-term strategic partners.” As part of their agreement, Mansion will launch with Playtech in Ontario, via Mansion Ontario Holdings.

Mansion has gone live on their Casino.com and Mansioncasino.com brands, and as part of the new deal, Playtech’s IMS platform will deliver “a complete online backend solution, providing an industry-leading offering,” according to a press release. 

In January 2020, following an extension of the five-year relationship between Mansion and Playtech, the two brands aligned “as industry-leading partners as they continue to build their reputations as trustworthy and authentic gambling brands,” said Playtech. 

Shimon Akad, COO at Playtech, said: "At Playtech, we are on a constant journey to expand into new markets and make our products available to new players. We are delighted to have launched with Mansion in Ontario, a key market for the gambling community and us.”

“But, more importantly, this announcement demonstrates the strength of our partnership with Mansion, which we're excited to evolve and further strengthen our partnership in the future,” added Akad.

Chris Block, Group President and Chairman, Mansion, added: “Mansion is extremely proud to be approved by AGCO and iGO to operate in Ontario. Ontario reinforces our focus on expanding our regulated footprint across global markets.” 

“Mansion is confident that our casino.com and Mansioncasino.com brands will be successful in Ontario and will positively contribute to the regulated iGaming market and promote a safe and responsible gaming experience to Ontarians,” Block concluded.
