5 YEAR GERMAN ONLINE GAMBLING DEAL FOR CHARTWELL - Online-Casinos.com

Saxony-licensed online casino operator chooses Canadian gambling software

One of the German states will soon have an online casino operation up and running. Calgary-based online gambling software developer Chartwell Technology has revealed that it has been successful in clinching a deal with Spielbanken Niedersachsen GmbH (SNG), the exclusive Lower Saxony state licensed and regulated casino operator, for an online gaming system.

SNG plans to launch its Internet gambling venture to complement its existing landbased business. The agreement is for five years and calls for the initial launch of both casino and soft games, with provision for the roll-out of additional gaming products to SNG sister companies as and when locally permissible in Germany. The launch of the Flash technology casino is scheduled for early next (May) month, with a preview currently available at casinoland.de

Owned by leading international gaming operator Casinos Austria International, which itself has been involved in online poker development with Sweden's Svenske Spel and Boss Media recently (see previous Online-Casinos.com/InfoPowa reports), Spielbanken Niedersachsen has been providing games of chance to the people of the German Federal State of Lower Saxony for almost 20 years.

Last year SNG's gross win exceeded Euro 94 million. The company holds the exclusive state license to offer internet gaming to the residents of Lower Saxony, the second largest German state, with a population of 8 million inhabitants.
