In related news, Merkur participated in the SBC Summit, which drew almost 25,000 attendees to the corridors of the Feira Internacional de Lisboa for three busy days of networking from September 24h to 26th. The global gaming giant showcased its varied portfolio of solutions to an eager audience, from payment novelties to iGaming titles and terminals.

In an exclusive interview with Yogonet, Thomas Bone, CEO of Merkur Online Divisions (B2B), spoke about the latest novelties in Merkur's portfolio, the potential of omnichannel gaming, and why iGaming is turning social.

Speaking about the synergies between the retail and iGaming arms of the group, Bade said: “That's the reason why we invented our omnichannel machines. Nowadays, if you see the requirements in highly regulated markets, it becomes so difficult to become efficient and to still achieve and maintain good margins.

True omnichannel approaches are one of the most promising ways of still ensuring your margins, so that's why we invented, within Merkur eSOLUTIONS, these terminals that bridge the gap between the traditional retail world and the online world."
