TORONTO, July 17, 2018 /CNW/ - Global Daily Fantasy
Sports Inc. ("Global" or the "Company") (TSX-V: DFS), a B2B Daily
Fantasy Sports software provider, is pleased to announce its
continued expansion in the Italian regulated gaming market
following the addition of two new brands, Betaland and Enjoybet
which are owned and operated by OIA Services Limited. Both brands
have agreed to join the DFS network for the upcoming European
football season, which kicks off on the 18th of August.
As part of the network of the leading Italian B2B
service Microgame S.p.A. ("Microgame"), who became a
customer of Global in February 2018,
they will join the Italian network powered by Global.
OIA Services Limited is an Italian licensed concessionaire that
operates under the Betaland.it and Enjoybet.it brands in sports
betting and gambling in Italy. OIA
Services has an extensive knowledge of the gaming market and offers
an exciting and innovative gaming environment, with a complete and
highly competitive product offering. Formed in 2010, the Betaland
brand has quickly established itself as one of the top 10 operators
in the Italian online sports betting market, representing
approximately six (6%) percent market share in the largest gambling
market in Europe.
Microgame (see June 18, 2018, news
release) serves over 30 concessionaires with digital content of
which, including OIA Services Ltd, 12 have signed up so far to gain
access into the Global-powered DFS network in Italy for the upcoming Football season. These
signups are a testament to Microgame's reach in the Italian gaming
market and the increasing level of interest in Global's DFS product
and network. With the addition of these two brands, the Italian
facing DFS network now has exposure to 20% of the Italian facing
online sports betting market which last year generated 550M euro in revenue.
Darcy Krogh CEO of Global Daily Fantasy Sports Inc. comments,
"We are delighted to welcome the OIA brands to our DFS network
through Microgame. Adding an established top tier market player to
our network is great for all the participants and assists in
driving further interest in our product."
Michele Sprovieri, OIA's Managing
Director said, "We are confident we have made the right choice for
a DFS product. The Global product is very innovative and we are
sure it will be very successful with the Betaland customers."
