B2B Daily Fantasy Sports Provider, Global Daily Fantasy Sports Inc. (GDFS) has signed a two-year exclusive agreement with Microgame S.P.A. (Microgame).
Under the terms of the deal, Microgame’s poker and bingo networks will gain full access to GDFS’s Daily Fantasy Sports platform enabling the Italian operator to offer a complete Daily Fantasy Sports solution across its 34 customers and more than 90 brands in the Italian market.
Integration work is underway with the Microgame platform with the expectation that Microgame’s network rollout will join Global’s previously announced network partners, including Sisal and Lottomatica Scommesse S.r.l., before the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.
GDFS CEO Darcy Krogh said:
“This single integration gives all their [Microgame’s] brands access to our unique Daily Fantasy product and network and we’re excited to have them join.
“We are committed to growing our presence in this key market, and our partnership with Microgame is a very positive step for Global in pursuing this goal.”
Microgame’s General Manager Marco Castaldo added:
“We are very excited to launch Daily Fantasy Sports with Global. Microgame already manages the leading poker and bingo networks in Italy, and we expect the excellent Global games and our combined liquidity to drive growth in this very promising but currently underdeveloped vertical.”
