Portuguese Estoril Sol Digital Signs Commercial Deal with Microgaming

The Portuguese iGaming market welcomed its latest supplier a day before Christmas, as Microgaming launched a range of its most engaging and entertaining slots with Estoril Sol Digital’s online brand ESC.

Expansion into key regulated markets is a continuous effort for Microgaming, a company whose footprint in Sweden and Czech Republic has successfully been set in early 2019.

ESC Online represents the country’s first licensed casino operator and a true market leader in business. The venue’s gaming portfolio encompasses slots, blackjack and roulette, offering the same standards as land-based parlors throughout Portugal, famous for excellent gaming service and hospitality.

By adding Microgaming’s award-winning platform to its comprehensive casino portfolio, ESC Online will provide its customers with access to a wealthy universe of diverse, innovative slots and other casino games, constantly updated by more than 10 independent studios.

Debut with a Leading Portuguese Brand

As one of the top technology providers in the iGaming sector, Microgaming is proud to have signed a distribution deal with a Portuguese leading online brand ESC. Andrew Clucas, chief operating officer at the company explains why:

“We are delighted to extend our offering into the regulated market of Portugal. ESC Online is one of the country’s leading gaming brands, and we are thrilled to provide them with some of the most engaging and successful titles in the industry.”

Chief executive officer of Estoril Sol Digital, Rui Magalhães, who has 20 years of experience in defining, developing and executing business strategies, commented:

“Providing our players with excellent content and customer experience has the highest importance to us. Our partnership with Microgaming signals our commitment to this. We set the highest standards for our ESC Online brand, and with the addition of Microgaming’s exceptional casino titles, we look forward to bolstering our offering and providing our players with access to the largest and most diverse online gaming portfolio in the business.

I am confident that through this collaboration we will continue to succeed in Portugal, as market leaders, and provide Portuguese players with a top notch entertaining online gaming experience.”

Live in 20 Licensed Jurisdictions

According to Microgaming, regulated markets are the future of online gaming, and the company is constantly on the lookout for new expansion opportunities. It is currently present in over 20 licensed jurisdictions spreading across two continents, Europe and Latin America.

Aside from regular new slot releases launched in collaboration with fast-growing studios such as SlingShot, Fortune Factory, Pulse 8 or Neon Valley, the company also develops table games with Switch, including European Blackjack, Atlantic City, Vegas Strip, Classic Blackjack and more.

At the end of November, Microgaming entered into a new arrangement with Alchemy Gaming, the latest addition to its growing network of partners and game builders. The first official release is scheduled for early 2020 and it is called Wheel of Wishes.
