Hot on the heels of obtaining a German market operating licence at the end of 2022, Rootz Limited has announced the company’s success in gaining access to the regulated Ontario, Canada, market from January 2023. This latest success further strengthens the online casino operator’s reputation as a global contender.

CEO of Rootz, Lasse Rantala, states that “increasing our footprint within regulated markets is in line with a dynamic strategy that seeks to provide innovative gaming solutions to players around the world. Ontario is an important market for us, and we welcome the opportunity provided by AGCO to become a licensed operator and to enter into an operational agreement with iGO”.

This agreement will see Rootz Ltd. launching four leading casino brands into the regulated Ontario market; Wildz, Wheelz, Caxino and the streaming brand Spinz will be available to Ontario residents from 31January 2023.

The four casino brands all run off the Rootz proprietary platform utilising a single account structure that provides players with access to all four Rootz brands with a single account and virtual wallet. The company’s existing automated and fully-personalised CRM tool, Journeys, is set to provide a seamless play experience for Ontario customers.

Rantala’s expertise includes cultivating teams equipped with the advanced skills required for exceptional service delivery in a complex operating environment:

“Full credit goes to our first-rate teams for the Ontario licencing achievement: as an operator, we prioritise the need for safe, secure and fair play; the strict compliance requirements within regulated markets such as Ontario and Germany will provide peace of mind to our customers that they are enjoying play experiences with a licensed provider,” Rantala concludes.

As a multi-brand platform, Rootz’ reputation has gained traction within the industry, having received numerous awards and accolades within a short time frame.

Rising iGaming brand Titanplay is entering the mobile market powered by Delasport’s turnkey solution. The solution includes the possibility of quickly launching iOS and Android apps, in this case – for the Ontario player base.

Mobile users will get the full sportsbook and casino experience of Delasport’s product, and even more: features like the proprietary Booster Panel for Casino games and ‘Combo of the Day’ for sports are also available for them.

Titanplay’s app is already available for iOS, and it will soon arrive on Google’s Play Store for Android devices.

The Ontario-focused brand is taking full advantage of what Delasport has to offer, thus providing the best player betting experience possible. Their platform has been live for a few months now and it has been thriving the whole time.

Aside from the mobile-only cutting-edge features, gamblers enjoy Player Engagement missions and tournaments, unmatched personalization capabilities with My Sportsbook, My Casino, My Combo, and My Event Builder, and much more.

“Having a mobile-first approach when developing products is a must in today’s iGaming industry”, Delasport’s CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz comments. “Data shows that mobile users are now more than 70% of the whole player base, so we make sure to be prepared to bring our partners to this thriving market at any point. This is the case with Titanplay who’ve had an incredibly successful launch in Ontario last year and are now ready to win even more players.”

In addition to a comprehensive sportsbook and casino experience, the Delasport mobile app includes innovative customization, and gamification features to boost user engagement and differentiate the company from its competitors. Cross-product Tournaments, Missions, Badges, Spin & Win, and other gamification elements are also available to Titanplay’s players.

As soon as the app is downloaded and installed on a device, it provides convenient and quick access. Titanplay’s team may communicate with their players in real-time using the built-in push notifications feature on their devices. The software also addresses current security demands by providing biometric login and facial recognition on supported devices.
