I am confident that we will be able to support Borgata and bwin.party in their ambitions to provide the very best experience to their players. Subject to approval from the Division of Gaming Enforcement, all parties are now collaborating closely to secure a successful integration and preparation for a commercial launch.”

Jeffrey Haas, Group Director, Poker & Director, USA at bwin.party, comments: “It is our goal to deliver the best online casino experience to our customers throughout New Jersey. The addition of premium and inventive gaming content from the renowned NetEnt stable is another significant step in helping us meet that objective”.

Steve Nathan, Vice President of Marketing for Borgata, comments: “We are very impressed by NetEnt’s performance in Europe, and their ability to deliver the highest degree of portfolio innovation and creativity. We are excited to bring that experience to our customers, and look forward to the day we can go live with the first set of NetEnt multichannel games.”

New Jersey approvals clear six Atlantic City casinos to launch online

The Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) in New Jersey issued Transactional Waivers Friday to online gaming companies partnered with six of the seven Atlantic City casinos that will launch online gaming sites on November 26th.

The waivers enable Borgata, Caesars, Golden Nugget, Tropicana, Trump Plaza and Trump Taj Mahal to go live on that date with their online poker and casino offerings, while Resorts and its online partner PokerStars continue to wait for approval.

A spokesperson for PokerStars said: "Our application remains under review by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement and we remain committed to working with the Division to complete the review process."

But the wait is over for the rest. bwin.party received a waiver to begin transacting with Borgata, as did GameAccount (Trump Plaza); Fertitta (Trump Taj Mahal); Amaya (Caesars, Borgata, Golden Nugget and Trump Plaza); Gamesys (Tropicana); 888 (Caesars' and Bally's); and Bally Technologies (Golden Nugget).

The DGE also said Friday that eight other companies were considered eligible to receive a Transaction Waiver, once they enter into an agreement with a casino licensee or platform provider and request the waiver.

The companies that have passed a preliminary investigation are Paddy Power, Scientific Games, Williams Interactive, Genesis Gaming, Betable, Evolution, Pala Interactive, and Rush Street Interactive.

The DGE added that it continues to review other companies who have filed for Casino Service Industry Enterprise (CSIE) licensure, ancillary casino service industry enterprise licensure and vendor registration.

Amaya signs bwin.party games deal for New Jersey & Europe

Canadian gaming software supplier Amaya Gaming Group has entered into a licensing agreement to supply UK-listed bwin.party digital entertainment with a range of its online casino content for the operator’s online gaming brands in Europe and New Jersey.

bwin.party will be launching three online gaming websites in New Jersey on behalf of its New Jersey gaming partner, the Borgata Hotel Casino and Spa, including Partypoker.com, Borgatacasino.com and Borgatapoker.com.

The websites will all be integrated with Amaya’s Casino Gaming System, providing customers with access to a selection of the supplier’s proprietary and third-party gaming content.

bwin.party’s director of games Golan Shaked said the deal will give customers access to “an even wider range of market-leading online casino games through the Partypoker.com, Borgatacasino.com and Borgatapoker.com gaming sites in New Jersey.”

“We are delighted to be working with one of the premier providers of online casino content in the market today,” Shaked said.

Amaya’s content will also go live across bwin.party’s existing European-facing websites, including those operating under its PartyPoker, bwin, PartyCasino and Foxy Bingo brands.

Amaya chief executive David Baazov said he was “thrilled” to extend his company’s relationship with the Gibraltar-based operator. bwin.party sold its Ongame poker network to Amaya last year.

“We look forward to leveraging our proven online casino content and bwin.party's strong reputation and partnerships to embrace the emerging but exciting online gaming market in the U.S. and the existing online gaming markets they serve,” Baazov added.
