Playtech Chosen as The Platform For Holland Casino

The company that holds the monopoly on Dutch gambling, Holland Casino, has opted to use Playtech as the basis for its online casino. This decision has been made in line with the new regulations that are set to be put up with regards to online gambling within Holland within the next two years or so. This is great news for Playtech because it is an acknowledgment of the role that the software provider plays within this industry and it speaks a lot to the trust that the casino has placed in their new provider.

Wide Variety Of Games

Most players who spend just about any time at all online will know that Playtech offers a wide variety of games, which is possibly one of the reasons why they were chosen to support the online casino belonging to Holland Casino. As such, the casino will now be offering games that include slots, roulette, bingo, poker and blackjack, among many others.

About Playtech

Playtech has been around since 1999, making it one of the pioneers within the world of online gaming, as well as one of the most respected. At this point in time, the software company is currently one of the largest gaming software suppliers on the market, as well as one of the biggest that is currently being traded on the LSE.

Competitive Tendering

It is said that Playtech was chosen by this Dutch casino giant after a very competitive process of tendering, although it is unclear which other big names in the casino software industry joined in the bids. Playtech must have done something right, however, since it is clear that they were up against some strong competitors and they most certainly came out on top.

The Future Of Holland Casino

The CEO of the Dutch based casino, Willem-Jan van den Dijssel is very excited for the future of his brand. He has stated that the casino will be offering players a very unique online-based environment, which is the basis for an authentic and unique experience. While big plans are being put in place, players should take note that the market in Holland is yet to be regulated, although van den Dijssel is confident that this will take place without a hitch, and soon.

As of this moment, the regulators who are in charge of the process are currently working on the laws that will put this regulation in place, and one of the initial proposals are said to ready for completion by mid 2014. It is not likely that the licenses for these online casinos to be awarded before 2015. This means that there is still a way to go as yet before the Dutch based casino can be introduced onto the market, but this means the company has more time to ensure they are ready for the big release. Let’s hope it is worth the wait.
