A New Direction For Skill Gaming – November 6th, 2009
UK skill-gaming developer GameAccount has signed an innovative white-label deal with international sports, lifestyle and retail firm Born.com, to provide skill games for its website. The agreement will see GameAccount’s popular games, such as dominoes, multiplayer blackjack and backgammon made available on the site – with a real money UK version due to launch on 16th November 2009.
GameAccount is also building a site for Born.com’s customers in the soon-to-be-regulated French market, to be launched on 1st December, with a free-to-play site currently under development. The games portfolio will be offered under a new section of the website named ‘BornCompete’ and will be easily accessible from the website’s homepage by clicking on a new top pane.
David Berrebi, Born.com COO said his company was looking forward to working with GameAccount in the skill-gaming sector. “They are the clear leaders in their field and we have high hopes for future growth both domestically and across Europe,” he explained.
GameAccount’s marketing director, Per Petersen, said, “We expect this relationship to bring great success to both parties and we’re very pleased that our games are now going to be available via a leading international lifestyle and clothing website.
The competitive element of our skill games are a perfect match for the Born.com philosophy and we are sure our relationship with them will prove very fruitful in the future.”
