Mansion and Playtech have announced an Ontario launch, thanks to an ongoing partnership between the two companies. Players in Ontario will have access to online gaming titles through Mansion Ontario Holdings and Playtech’s IMS platform.
Mansion has provided titles to the online gaming industry for more than two decades via its Casino.com and Mansioncasino.com brands.
Mansion President and Chairman Chris Block spoke about the approvals in Ontario and said the company will continue its global expansion plan.
He commented: “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.”
Playtech COO Shimon Akad described the company’s market expansion as a “constant journey” and said Playtech is eager to continue its collaboration with Mansion.
Akad 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."
Playtech is no stranger to the Ontario commercial market. The company recently signed a strategic partnership with Canadian online casino and sports wagering company, NorthStar. The partnership came weeks after the launch of Playtech’s live casino facilities in two US states. Its intention is to next expand into other international markets.
Under the terms of the agreement, the supplier will provide its IMS platform for use across all NorthStar Gaming's platforms, in accordance with the terms of the contract.
