News marks Pariplay’s entrance into a second US state, following its licence approval in New Jersey last year

Aspire Global’s Pariplay has been granted an interim igaming supplier licence for the state of West Virginia. The award of this licence marks Pariplay’s entrance into a second US state, following its approval for a licence in New Jersey last year. The interim licence will enable Pariplay to sign deals with casino operators in West Virginia and provide its industry-leading suite of gaming content to more players in the expanding US market.

The US has proven itself to be a major growing market in the global igaming space, with the near-immediate uptake gambling received in each state that legalised it. To date, 26 states have either legalised sports betting or have passed a bill to do so. West Virginia has shown immense potential, reporting impressive month-on-month revenue increases according to the West Virginia Lottery Commission.

This development in the US is Pariplay’s latest move in its 2021 expansion strategy, and a clear demonstration of its ongoing efforts to extend its global footprint across all regulated markets. By entering into partnerships with a new base of operators in West Virginia, Pariplay will be able to provide its renowned portfolio of hundreds of casino games, including hit titles such as Kings of the Trident Deluxe, Dragons of the North Deluxe, Mystery Fox, Wolf Riches and Stallion Fortunes. In addition to Pariplay’s innovative gaming catalogue, operators in West Virginia will also gain access to thousands of games from leading suppliers that are available through Pariplay’s Fusion aggregation platform.

Commenting on the licence award, Adrian Bailey, managing director of Pariplay, said: “Being approved by the West Virginia Lottery Commission to offer our high-quality games to players also in this market is a very exciting move for Pariplay, as we see much potential not only in this state but in the US market as a whole. We think our suite of games will resonate well with the players in this state and we look forward to building partnerships with operators in West Virginia and beyond as we continue to expand into more regulated markets.”
