Ezugi Live has announced the launch of its live casino offerings to the Ontario market through operators theScore and Bet99.
Part of Evolution Group, the provider is now live in the fast-expanding Ontario market as of June 17. Its portfolio of roulette, blackjack and baccarat games will now be available to players in the province through TheScore and Bet99 – enhancing the provider’s partnership portfolio in what is set to be the first move in an ongoing phase of North American expansion for the company.
Commenting on the launch, Pang Wee Goh, Ezugi CCO, said: “After an exciting few years of consolidating our market position and extending our games portfolio, this is a very significant step for Ezugi and its growth. Ontario has long been on our radar, representing the ideal progression in Ezugi's ongoing expansion throughout North America.
"I am confident that operators in Ontario will benefit from our large and innovative games portfolio, which truly offers something different for players.”
After initially entering the US market in New Jersey eight years ago, the provider’s live casino games were also relaunched by Fun88 in Asia last summer.
In recent Canadian-related news, Alberta looks set to follow in Ontario’s footsteps on its own path to a regulated online gaming market – with reports from the Canadian Gaming Summit suggesting that the development is already in motion.
Ezugi’s move into the Ontarian market comes after the province released its FY financials for 2023-24, revealing CA$2.4bn (US$1.75) in revenue for the market’s second full year of regulation.
