NetEnt has signed a licence agreement with Amaya, owner of PokerStars, to supply the online poker giant with desktop and mobile games in the US state of New Jersey.
NetEnt will apply for a transactional waiver from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement to launch operations with PokerStars while its application for a full licence is still under review.
“PokerStars is one of the biggest online gaming power houses in the world, and the agreement is yet more proof of the trust and confidence that exists in NetEnt’s operational and portfolio capabilities,” said Björn Krantz, managing director of NetEnt Americas.
PokerStars recently announced that PokerStarsNJ.com will be open to the New Jersey public from March 21. NetEnt has previously announced New Jersey partnerships with Borgata/bwin.party, Golden Nugget, Resorts Casino, Tropicana/Gamesys and Caesars Interactive Entertainment.
