In related news, an industry update from Playtech’s BGT Sports division details the signing of new commercial agreements with five independent UK bookmakers and extended deals with another six operators significantly expanding its SSBT presence.

New deals have been signed with BG Bet, Wilf Gilbert, Victoria Gate Casino, Sean Graham and Star Sports Mayfair over recent months and the independent operators extending their deals comprise Corbett’s, Toals, Bet Sid, Toolan’s, GR8Odds and S&D.

John Pettit, managing director for UK, Ireland, Asia, and Australia at Playtech BGT Sports, said: “The independent sector has shown it’s ready for the challenges it faces on the high street and embracing the latest in technology and retail trends is key to this.

“The various deals we have signed with new and existing operators alike prove that there is a hunger amongst independent operators to adapt and thrive in the space, offering their customers the increased range of betting opportunities they now expect.

“Our SSBTs are unmatched in the incremental revenue generated through in-play betting and an extensive choice of markets and sports, giving independent operators the competitive edge required to compete with the greater marketing spend of others.”
