Gamenet becomes Inspired’s latest virtual sports customer in Italy

Inspired has already signed license deals with most of the major Italian operators for its award winning Virtual Sports including SNAI, Sisal, Eurobet, Intralot, Cogetech and Lottomatica.

Gamenet is one of the leading Italian concessionaries for VLTs as well as for betting and online gaming products. Claudio Sforza, Managing Director of Gamenet, commented: “With this agreement, Gamenet is ready to widen its games portfolio; customers using our own online platform are now able to bet on Inspired virtual events such as football, horse racing, horse trotting, greyhound racing, speedway, motor racing, tennis and cycling on www.gamenet.com website. The betting offer is also available in venue in more than 100 shops and corners all over Italy. ”

After the new legislation legalizing fixed-odds bets on virtual sport events online and in betting shops in Italy, Inspired has entered the AAMS homologation process and expects to have its products go live in July 2013. Inspired is already one of three leading suppliers to the VLT market in Italy, with contracts for over 10,000 terminals with leading concessionaires.

Steve Rogers, Managing Director of Inspired’s Virtual Sports division, commented: “This is a very special moment for the new Virtual Sports market in Italy and for Inspired. Our years of experience worldwide have demonstrated that our virtual sports products generate incremental revenues for sports betting operators across all channels. Our premium content package continues to deliver revenues far in excess of those of our competitors. We supply our virtual sports to many of the world’s most successful gaming companies and we’re delighted to announce Gamenet as a new customer.”
