IGT announces contract extension with Svenska Spel for poker product enhancements

PROVIDENCE – International Game Technology PLC announced last week that it has signed a four-year contract extension to enhance the multichannel poker products it provides to AB Svenska Spel, the company’s lottery customer in Sweden and operator of the world’s fifth-largest ring-fenced market poker site, according to pokerscout.com.

Under terms of the contract extension, which was provided under Svenska Spel’s contract with IGT as part of a competitive procurement in 2013, IGT will enhance its multichannel suite of interactive poker products across desktop, Android smartphone, Android tablet, iPad and iPhone with a new user-friendly graphical interface, new game formats and tournament variations. Character-based Cash Tables, along with IGT’s U.S. patent-pending Poker Challenge tournament format, which caters to novice as well as expert players, will be included in the enhancements.

IGT has been providing Svenska Spel with fully customizable poker software since 2006 and video lottery gaming solutions since 1996. Svenska Spel also uses IGT’s Casinolink system and slot machines at its land-based casinos.
