As the Elantil model enables clients to form contracts with suppliers without the need of an intermediary, the company doesn’t dictate the terms of their agreements and never charges any  additional commission, allowing operators to enjoy simple, cost-effective one-click integrations.

Boasting one of the largest content libraries in the industry, a powerful back office and customer support that’s available 24/7 in a variety languages, Hub88 prides itself on offering the next generation of casino aggregation and can help operators provide a more tailored user experience.

The aggregator’s advanced personalisation model draws on player interaction data to create recommendations for top games, similar games and custom lobbies, meaning customers can find the content they love faster and also enjoy titles that have been curated to their preferences.

Offering all this and more, the addition of Hub88 to the Elantil’s Marketplace will provide a major boom to the company’s clients and marks the third such expansion Elantil has made in the past month  – again reiterating its commitment to rewriting the playbook for online platform solutions by connecting as much third-party providers it can to its current and future operators.

John Debono, Chief Technical Officer at Elantil, said: “The Elantil marketplace was designed to connect operators with a comprehensive range of iGaming products and the addition of Hub88’s content will only strengthen this proposition further. Offering one of the largest libraries in the industry, Hub88 puts over 12,000 games at operators’ fingertips – all of which are now available via our easy and cost-effective plug-and-play solution.”
