Greentube furthers US expansion through Connecticut licence

Greentube, the NOVOMATIC Interactive division, has received an Online Gaming Service Provider licence from the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection as the supplier continues to broaden its reach in the growing US market.
Greentube is now primed to enter new partnerships with operators in the Constitution State, where online sports betting and casino have been operational since October 2021. This latest licence is Greentubeâs third in the US, having entered the market in both New Jersey and Michigan.
Entertaining titles from Greentubeâs broad portfolio, including Diamond Cashâą: Mighty Emperor, Diamond Cashâą: Mighty Elephant, Diamond Cashâą: Mighty Sevens and Diamond Cashâą: Oasis Riches, as well as other titles developed specifically for US players will soon be available in the market.
Recently released numbers show that Connecticutâs sports betting and iGaming market reached record levels in December 2022, with iGaming wagering hitting $1 billion for the first time within an overall total of $1.16n.
This figure highlights the depth of the market available to Greentube as it continues to focus on the US, with a further launch being prepared for Pennsylvania. The supplier recently enhanced its content creation capabilities in the region through a joint venture with emerging studio Flamingocatz and the acquisition of US development studio Present Creative.
Michael Bauer, CFO/CGO at Greentube, said: âNorth America continues to be a key region for us and in gaining a third US state licence, we have achieved an important step in our growth journey. There is major potential within the US market and having acquired additional development capabilities to cater to local players, we believe we are well-placed to serve the market with premium content. We are looking forward to teaming up with operators in Connecticut and canât wait to see how players in the state react to our portfolio.â

Statement from NYSGC Chair OâDwyer Regarding Casino Applicants

NYSGC Chair OâDwyer has released the following statement regarding casino applicants.
âOn behalf of my fellow Commissioners and the Gaming Facility Location Board, I welcome the eight applicants to Develop and Operate a Gaming Facility in New York State to the competition. The Commission and Board are committed to ensuring the casino siting process is fair, transparent, competitive, deliberative, and beneficial for the State of New York.
âThis is a tabula rasa â there are no frontrunners or favorites. These eight proposed projects represent billions of dollars in private investment, thousands of jobs, and amenities in addition to a world-class casino â all things that can transform a community. Thatâs why each project must obtain all local entitlements, including zoning approval, and be approved by a specific Community Advisory Committee of appointees of the elected officials representing the proposed facilityâs location. Only those projects that meet both statutory requirements â zoning and Community Advisory Committee approval â by September 30, 2025 will be considered by the Gaming Facility Location Board. This ensures that only those projects embraced by the community are placed before the Board for consideration.
âAppointing authorities for all eight projects have been notified of their obligation to make appointments to the Community Advisory Committees as soon as possible, as Committees are expected to be up and running in the coming weeks. Through the summer, Committees will hold public hearings to gauge support and/or opposition to their respective project, and formally vote whether to advance the project for Board evaluation. Those projects that are not approved by their Community Advisory Committee will not advance.
âThe Board will evaluate those projects approved by their Community Advisory Committee and select up to three projects by December 1, followed by Commission licensure. This ensures that New York State will collect the already-booked casino license fee(s) ahead of schedule.
âAs the Board has stated in the Request for Applications, the revenue from new gaming facilities is expected to benefit New Yorkâs public schools, mass transit, local governments, and problem gambling treatment services. The jobs created by these casinos are expected to deliver livable wages to help families live, stay, and prosper in New York.
âWe look forward to a competitive process with active community engagement for all proposals.â
