Well into their second decade as a games developer with a sharp reputation, CT Interactive delivers diverse gaming titles with a wide variety of themes and game mechanics broadening Groove’s platform with a stream of new content for operators and players alike. CT Interactive was the winner of the highly prestigious Online Systems and Solutions Award at the 11th BEGE Expo Annual Awards.

Groove’s latest deal with CT Interactive will see operator and player-favourites such as Lady Emerald, Ice Rubies, Clover Wheel, Win Storm, Queen of Flames, Satyr and Nymph, Enchanted Fruits, Lucky Clover, 20 Star Party, Wizard Blizzard and 40 Treasures, which also features a special jackpot, and more, forming part of the Groove catalogue.

Groove’s powerful platform includes thousands of casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, sportsbook, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue. This new arrangement with CT Interactive will add to the depth and diversity of Groove’s content portfolio.

It’s based on the GrooveHub, which offers API and instant access to leading suppliers in the iGaming industry and GrooveOn, an easy-to-use multifunctional back-office that powers performance.

GrooveOn, launched earlier this year, has been built to provide an easy-to-use multifunctional back-office that powers performance and will be further expanded to incorporate evolving business intelligence software and analytics, as well as new promotional tools, a studio self-service and additional content to strengthen operator capabilities in global markets.
