Pariplay® expands into Ontario through Caesars Sportsbook & Casino partnership

NeoGames S.A subsidiary Pariplay® has gone live with its first batch of content for Caesars Sportsbook & Casino in the regulated province of Ontario, as the leading aggregator and content provider continues to build on its unique proposition in the North American market.
A range of feature-rich and innovative slots from Pariplay®’s in-house studio Wizard Games are now available with the operator in Ontario, following a similar launch with Caesars Sportsbook & Casino earlier this year in New Jersey. Caesars Sportsbook & Casino is part of Caesars Entertainment, a leading gaming company worldwide with more than 80 years of gaming expertise.
Gods of Kemet, Spirit of Mustang and Wolf Riches are among the games that are available to Caesars players from day one, through Pariplay®’s cutting-edge Fusion® aggregation platform.
Titles from Wizard Games will be supplemented in the coming months by the rollout of content from both third-party vendors and partners on the Ignite® programme, which empowers independent game developers to reach global markets. These titles include a suite of games that have proven successful in regulated markets globally, as well as titles created specifically for a North American audience.
The Fusion aggregation platform provides a unified, single approach to content delivery, with a focus on providing greater efficiencies and exceptional ROI for operators.
Pariplay®’s Fusion offering consists of over 14,000 games from 100+ suppliers, as well as a comprehensive suite of back-office conversion and retention tools that enhance player value, including Fusion Tournaments, Raffle Rocket and Spin that Wheel.
Through the latest launch with Caesars, Pariplay® has taken its latest step toward the long-term goal of becoming a leading content supplier in North America, where it has recently signed several important deals to offer content from its Fusion platform.
Joey Hurtado, Managing Director at Wizard Games, said: “It’s a privilege to once again be responsible for the first studio to take its games live through Pariplay® in a new region with Caesars Sportsbook & Casino, this time in Ontario. We believe our games will continue to resonate with players across North America and look forward to seeing how Canadian players react to what we put in front of them.”
Shivan Patel, Vice President of North America at Pariplay, said: “We continue to make progress in the North American market and this launch marks the latest significant achievement, as we strive to offer a content portfolio that is honed to the preferences of players in the region. Caesars Sportsbook & Casino has already proven to be a highly valuable partner in New Jersey and we are excited to extend our alliance to cover another market of great potential in Ontario.”
Matthew Sunderland, Senior Vice President of iGaming at Caesars Digital, said: “Pariplay®’s extensive collection of content, which includes its acclaimed Wizard Games range, is something we’re excited to share with our players in Ontario. The addition of these games brings considerable value to our already diverse portfolio, ensuring our players will be engaged by high-quality casino content.”

AGCO Fines Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto $350,000 for Serious Regulatory Violations Linked to Impromptu After-Party on Gaming Floor

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) has issued monetary penalties totaling $350,000 against Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto for multiple violations of provincial gaming standards. The penalties follow an impromptu after-party that was permitted to take place in the pre-dawn hours directly on the casino’s gaming floor.
On September 27, 2024, an electronic dance music event attended by thousands of people was hosted in the theatre adjacent to the casino at Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. The event was marked by widespread intoxication, disorderly behavior, and numerous criminal and medical incidents – both inside and outside the venue – including alleged assaults, drug overdoses, and acts of public indecency. Although paid duty officers were present, additional police and emergency services were required to manage the situation.
In the midst of this high-risk environment, casino management approved an unscheduled request by the performing artist to host an after-party on the active gaming floor. The artist and more than 400 guests were permitted onto the gaming floor where the artist was allowed to perform amidst operational table games and gaming machines – without any prior risk assessment or planning.
As a result, security personnel were unable to effectively control the casino floor, including witness reports that an attendee was seen climbing onto slot machines. Failure to maintain appropriate control compromises the security, safety, and integrity of the casino floor. Following the conclusion of the event, the operator failed to promptly report these incidents to the AGCO as required.
Based on the findings of its review, the AGCO’s Registrar has issued an Order of Monetary Penalty (OMP) totaling $350,000 against Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto. These penalties address critical failures in their operations, incident reporting, employee training, and the management of disturbances.
A gaming operator served with an OMP has 15 days to appeal the Registrar’s decision to the Licence Appeal Tribunal (LAT), an adjudicative tribunal that is part of Tribunals Ontario and independent of the AGCO.
“Casino operators have a fundamental duty to control their gaming environment. Great Canadian Casino Resort Toronto’s lapses in this incident compromised the safety of patrons and the security and integrity of the gaming floor,” Dr. Karin Schnarr, Chief Executive Officer and Registrar of AGCO, said.
