Playtech Enters Dutch Market with Holland Casino

Playtech, the world’s leading gambling technology company, has announced that it has launched its multichannel technology with Holland Casino as part of its strategic co-operation announced earlier this year.
Under the agreement, Playtech became Holland Casinos’ strategic technology supplier delivering its full turnkey multichannel technology as well as certain ancillary services. The launch of Playtech’s IMS platform, Sportsbook, Casino, Live Casino and Poker software is the first of its kind in the Netherlands and builds on Playtech’s track record of developing newly regulated online markets.
As part of the agreement, a new Live Casino studio has been built separately from, but in the vicinity of, the existing Holland Casino site in Scheveningen. The Live Casino studio has been built in close collaboration with multiple teams and strengthens the strategic relationship between the two companies. As a result, the high production studio offers Dutch players direct access to the Playtech Live tables via the casino website and includes Live Blackjack and Roulette, as well as Baccarat and the scalable Blackjack version of All Bets.
“We are delighted to announce the launch of this strategic co-operation. Essential to Playtech’s success is our ability to partner with the leading entertainment companies in the most compelling and exciting markets. For 45 years Holland Casino has been a pillar of the leisure landscape in the Netherlands, and we are very proud to be working alongside them to build a market leading responsible multi gambling proposition focused and sustainable entertainment experience that will take the Dutch to the next level,” Mor Weizer, CEO of Playtech, said.
“At Holland Casino we know the importance of offering our customers the best product and experiences in a safe and enjoyable online environment. Our co-operation with Playtech means that we can deliver the new online market in the Netherlands with an engaging and enjoyable online experience with the highest level of player protection. Alongside Playtech’s unrivaled multichannel technology, its strong track record in delivering industry leading software to newly regulated markets make them a trusted and experienced supplier. We are at the beginning of an exciting opportunity, and we look forward to a long and successful relationship with Playtech,” Erwin van Lambaart, CEO of Holland Casino, said.

BetBlocker Launches Italian Version of its App

BetBlocker has launched the Italian version of its app.
“Italian is the fifth language that we’ve launched support for in the first two months of 2025. Unlike commercial blocking softwares, who focus their attentions on markets that are viewed as commercially viable, BetBlocker is determined to remove the language barrier for as many users as possible,” the Company said.
“Gambling addiction is no different in Zambia, Brazil or Serbia than it is in the UK, US or the Netherlands. It is critical that we remove unnecessary friction to our free, anonymous support for as many people as possible.
“BetBlocker would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Francesco Casartelli, who volunteered to provide the translation services that have facilitated this launch. Francesco’s work will allow us to support thousands more Italian speakers, and directly touch and improve the lives of a huge number of people and families.”
