Online casino game and software supplier Red Tiger has added the latest strand of its European expansion after inking an exclusive deal with Slovakian operator Niké.

Lauded as leading the Slovak betting and gaming market for nearly 30 years, Niké operates more than 900 retail outlets and recently launched an online casino following the introduction of the country’s new regulatory framework.

Otto Berger, Niké chief executive officer and co-owner, stressed that working with Red Tiger was the natural choice for the new venture following the sustained success of its games in other markets: “We are very much looking forward to working with Gavin and the team at Red Tiger. They come highly recommended and have a proven track record of delivering high-performance games in a range of styles.

“As Slovakia’s number one betting operator it is important to transfer our casino segment online and I’m sure we’ll do that by engaging the services of the best suppliers.”

After partnering with Casino777.com, Swiss Casinos Group and LeoVegas’ online casino brand Royal Panda, Red Tiger unveiled a deal to take its suite of slots live with LottoGo.com earlier this month.

Gavin Hamilton, CEO of Red Tiger, said of the latest partnership: “We are delighted to be one of the first suppliers to go live in Slovakia and to spearhead Niké’s entry in this newly-regulated market.

“Our objective is to be the leader in regulated markets. Today’s announcement is another significant milestone on that journey and ticks off another country in which players can now enjoy our games.”
