(US).- Bally announced that it has reached an agreement to provide its iGaming platform to Mohegan Sun’s casinos in Uncasville, Connecticut, and Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, adding to the growing portfolio of online gaming sites the company develops for casino operators.

The agreement will enable Mohegan Sun to offer play-for-free online poker in Connecticut and Pennsylvania in preparation for online wagering regulation. Mohegan Sun selected Bally Interactive following a six-month review process.

“We’re thrilled to continue our successful partnership with Bally Technologies,” said Mitchell Etess, CEO for the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority. “Our goal is always to provide our guests with the best gaming and entertainment offerings, and we believe iGaming is the next step in fulfilling the demand for regulated online play when customers aren’t able to be on property. Further, we believe this exciting new offering will entice new players to visit our properties and experience all that we have to offer.”

Bally’s iGaming platform offers casino operators a number of benefits. Its open architecture enables operators to choose from best-in-class content from a multitude of providers. Additionally, content is hosted, limiting the infrastructure required. The iGaming platform is also designed for mobile integration and is ready to accommodate online gaming beyond poker, such as casino table games, video slots, sports betting, and social.

Earlier this year, Bally Technologies became the first company licensed in the United States as an interactive gaming system manufacturer and service provider.

“We are proud of our long-term strategic partnership with Mohegan Sun,” said Bally Technologies’ CEO Richard Haddrill. “This partnership will demonstrate the advantages of having an open iGaming platform, which allows for best-in-class content.”
