Software developer Net Entertainment will start making its gaming catalogue available for Italian punters through Lottomatica’s online gaming channels during the summer of 2013.

This agreement will see Net Entertainment deliver their gaming and live casino content to Lottomatica, which will be the responsible entity for distributing it in Italy via the Lottomatica.it and Totosi.it betting sites.

Lottomatica manages both B2B and B2C in Italy, making NetEnt’s content available for other licensed online casinos in the country.

Italy has been one of the most recent EU members to join the gambling regulated market. The country has had a very good start since 2011, increasing profits by 2012, and it is expected to double its financial benefits (both for gaming companies and for tax collection) over the course of 2013.

Net Entertainment’s Managing Director, Björn Krantz, commented:

Net Entertainment was a first mover to supply online casino games to the regulated Italian online gaming market in 2011. I am very pleased that Net Entertainment has partnered with one of the world’s most reputable gaming corporations. I am confident that the company’s casino portfolio will strengthen Lottomatica’s position even further on the Italian market.

Net Entertainment has continued being the leader of online gambling software developing, launching at least one new video slot per month and continuously redefining gaming concepts and designs.

Their latest release, Fisticuffs, is available for the EU market via Mr Green and Leo Vegas and has already become a rite of passage for many online punters.
