Scientific Games expands its presence in New Jersey with the Tipico OpenGaming™ agreement.

Scientific Games is set to power Tipico's new iGaming offering in New Jersey after reaching an agreement to supply its OpenGaming™ product suite.

To support the international sports betting operator's entry into the US market, Scientific Games will provide its fully licensed, world-class Open Gaming System aggregation platform, as well as a comprehensive library of more than 2,000 games including in-house developed titles and content from a wide range of third-party studios. Tipico will soon make its debut in the United States, subject to regulatory approval, beginning with the state of New Jersey. The launch of SG Digital's OpenGaming™ ecosystem will provide Tipico with the ultimate iGaming offering to attract new players to New Jersey with cutting edge content and features.

The OpenGaming portfolio has already proven successful in New Jersey, offering cutting-edge features such as Free Rounds and Jackpots, in addition to its comprehensive library of more than 2,000 games including in-house developed titles and content from a wide range of third-party providers.

Tipico's new online casino, which is expected to be operational this autumn, will complement the operator's sports betting platform.

Dylan Slaney, SVP Casino for SG Digital, said: "Tipico's decision to choose OpenGaming to power its new digital casino further demonstrates the quality of our proposition, and reaffirms our position as the leading provider in the state of New Jersey. We are delighted to be working with the Tipico team and look forward to providing them with all the support they need so that together we can launch a successful offering."

"We are very excited to partner with Scientific Games to bring our US sportsbook players a robust new iGaming offering," said Adrian Vella, general manager of US operations at Tipico. "With a strong history in the highly regulated U.S. market, a huge library of games and proven platform technology, Scientific Games provides us with a solid foundation to build upon as we continue to develop our gaming offerings."
