Evolution Gaming Signs Deal with The Stars Group to Grow New Jersey Presence

Evolution Gaming has signed a new agreement with The Stars Group to further establish its presence in New Jersey.

The deal will see the games provider powering the live casino section of the PokerStarsCasinoNJ.com, The Star Group’s New Jersey online gaming platform. Live casino tables from Evolution’s latest live casino studio in Atlantic City will be broadcasted.

The Stars Groups owns and powers a series of online casino brands in the United States, including PokerStars and BetStars. The gambling sites feature titles offered by leading games developers such as Play’n GO and Quickspin.

“We have worked with The Stars Group since 2015, during which time we have worked together in a number of regulated markets in Europe,” said James Stern, Director of Business Development and Land-Based Sales at Evolution Gaming.

“The immediate popularity of our live casino tables at our Atlantic City studio has exceeded even our high expectations. I am confident that PokerStars Casino New Jersey’s customers will be drawn to live casino, and enjoy the thrill of playing at our wide range of live roulette, blackjack and baccarat tables.”

Last week, the software provider announced its plans to continue its expansion in Malta after receiving a positive set of results for the third quarter. Its revenue increased to €64.3m while its operating profit rose by 27% to more than €23m.
