Videoslots goes live with RAW iGaming in Ontario
Operator partners with leading provider in Canadian province
Online operator Videoslots is to roll out award-winning content from RAW iGaming in Ontario after teaming up with the studio to provide greater choice to players in the region.
RAW iGaming’s Raging Super2Ways was the 10,000th title released by Videoslots last month, paving the way for a deal to be agreed between the two parties.
Videoslots entered Ontario in June having carved out a formidable reputation in Europe as a leading online casino and recently went live with its first TV campaign, which will enhance the operator’s presence in the territory.
Some of RAW iGaming’s most successful titles, including Big Money Bass, Rise of Shinobi and Ave Caesar DynamicWays, are now all readily available across Ontario, all of which continue to prove popular with users.
Since being established in 2011, Videoslots provides players with an unrivalled variety of slots from industry-leading providers across the globe, retaining the honour of being called the world’s largest online casino.
Ulle Skottling, Deputy CEO at Videoslots, said: “To partner with one of Ontario’s leading iGaming providers is fantastic for Videoslots as we look to become market leaders in terms of our choice of games.
“RAW iGaming launched our 10,000th title and we are delighted that our relationship with them will continue to grow within Canada.”
Tom Wood, CEO at RAW iGaming, said: “Videoslots are an award-winning operator and who better to partner with than the biggest operator globally.
“Our portfolio continues to expand across Ontario and the launch with Videoslots will undoubtedly boost the outreach of our titles.”
