Evolution Joins FanDuel And It Expands Its Live Casino Products Offering.

Evolution, leading provider of Live Casino solutions, has announced that it has signed an agreement with the FanDuel Group to offer its Live Casino product to FanDuel casino customers in the US.

The agreement enables FanDuel to expand its Live Casino offering in the US market and will see Evolution Live Casino games added to FanDuel’s existing casino product offering, initially from Evolution’s Pennsylvania studio. The agreement also allows for FanDuel to complement its existing live games line-up in New Jersey with Evolution live casino titles (in addition to the existing offering from Ezugi, which became part of Evolution in January 2019).

Jesse Chemtob, GM of Casino at FanDuel Group, said: “We’re really excited to offer our loyal customers more Live Casino games. We see Live Casino as a key driver for continued online casino market growth in the US and FanDuel will now have access to Evolution’s entire Live Casino portfolio.”

Johan Nordstrom, Chief Executive Officer Malta and Chief Commercial Officer at Evolution, added: “Late last year we signed a landmark deal with Flutter Entertainment brands Paddy Power and Betfair. Now we are delighted to be working with another Flutter brand, FanDuel, in the fast-growing US market.”

Announcements of such deals have been a monthly occurrence of late. Live dealer games have risen in popularity as customers become more familiar with them. The shutdown of brick and mortar casinos in the spring and summer due to COVID-19 probably also helped introduce new players to the concept. Evolution also has an effective monopoly on these products. The only other studio in the country at the moment is Ezugi‘s, in New Jersey. However, Evolution acquired this former competitor in 2018.
