Evolution Gaming, the pioneer of live-dealer gaming, today announced a partnership with the interactive betting service, Blue Square. The deal enables Blue Square, part of the Rank Group of gaming businesses, to offer a range of live-dealer games to its customers, including Blackjack, Roulette and Baccarat.

As the only European live-gaming developer to custom-build and operate its own licensed studios Evolution’s live-dealer platform, offers the most authentic casino experience available online. Blue Square aims to use the live-dealer platform attract new customers, including high rollers, who would not otherwise consider playing an online casino game.

Angus Nisbet, Head of Gaming at Blue Square said: “In the fast paced environment of the online gaming industry, operators have to regularly assess and invest in new products to keep their competitive edge. Blue Square recognised the revenue potential of live gaming and researched the various products on offer. Evolution’s product proved to be the best for our requirements and we are excited about the deal and look forward to future product enhancements and new game development.”

Jens von Bahr, Chief Executive Officer of Evolution, said: “As the only fully-licensed live-gaming developer, we’ve given casino operators the quality and transparency they need to fully embrace the format.”

“It’s really no longer a question of whether or not to offer live-dealer gaming, but rather which partner they should choose. We believe our product is light-years ahead of the competition, and this is a view shared by some of the biggest names in gaming,” commented Jens von Bahr.

Evolution’s studios in Riga are the first to be fully regulated through the Latvian Gambling Authority and Alderney Gambling Control Commission, offering its customers unrivalled transparency.
