There are big changes taking in the world of online casinos around the world. In the US, the enforcement of the UIGEA has been causing a lot of problems, making it very challenging for players in the country to find online casinos that will take them. Canada on the other hand is having a lot more luck when it comes to casinos.
There have been many talks over the past few months to introduce online gambling to Canada, giving players the option of gaming at casinos licensed in their own country rather than strictly playing at international ones. Well, it looks progress might be coming close as a popular casino software provider has begun talks to work with provincial lottery systems to introduce online casino games such as
roulette online, blackjack and slots. Microgaming already has a small presence in British Columbia, working to produce games moderated by the provincial gaming lottery.
Well, in a new partnership with Betware, that will be taken to a new level as they will work to unify the online gambling that is provided to different lotteries since they exist as separate entities belonging to each individual Canadian province. This will ensure that all Canadians receive a similar gaming experience regardless of which province the casino is moderated by.
Microgaming has announced just how the new partnership might change the casino industry “Betware’s long history in gaming combined with its extensive lottery network will be beneficial in pushing the Microgaming brand into exciting new territories and markets," stated Microgaming CEO Roger Raatgever. 'We look forward to a long and successful working relationship.” Betware has a similar sentiment, believing that it’s a partnership that will bring great benefits to the industry overall!
Microgaming won’t be totally changing their standards, they’ll be continuing to produce exactly what players are used to from them. Recently, new games released include "Queen of the Jungle," "Lady in Red," and "Thunderstruck II”.
