In total, over 180 gambling websites have been blocked from operating in Switzerland since last year’s introduction of blacklist.

Seventh Brand

Casino du Lac, Partouche Group’s leading brand, has become the 7th land-based venue to get its online casino brand in Switzerland.

The brand has recently signed a content distribution deal with Red Tiger, so they will be getting their games as well on top of existing slot and table games offering.

Their licensing process was a lengthy one…

…because several entities needed to give their approval for this casino to distribute games on the internet.

online division of Switzerland’s Partouche Group will also base its live dealer vertical on partnership with Evolution Gaming, established earlier this year. As part of this complementary agreement, players will be offered a choice to play from their tablet, desktop or smartphone, while having direct access to live dealers for poker, baccarat and roulette as well.
