Operator Grosvenor Casinos has secured a deal to use UK B2B betting software provider 20Shots's main free-to-play football jackpot game Fantasy5.

On 11 August, just in time for the start of the current Premier League season, the product will go live on GrosvenorCasinos.com.

The fantasy football game will be hosted by Grosvenor Casinos under its own branding, and it will have a different Fantasy5 player pool than the B2C offering of 20Shots.

Tom Orton, Director of Sports at Rank Group, the parent company of Grosvenor Casinos, said: “We are delighted to have partnered with 20SHOTS to integrate Fantasy5 within our website. We were really impressed by the company’s retention and engagement figures and believe it is going to be a very successful acquisition and retention tool for our brand.

“It also sits perfectly with our vision for this year’s Premier League season and our current growth projections.”

Users of Fantasy5 will be able to select five players to help them reach their fantasy point goals in five weekly games.

Furthermore, Grosvenor Casinos will award a weekly jackpot of £10,000 ($12,761) to anyone who correctly selects all five players.

If more than one person wins, the jackpot is split between them.

Meanwhile, the company has also partnered with BoyleSports, which runs its own Fantasy5 player pool for its consumers in the UK and Ireland.

Jacob Kalms, 20Shots Co-Founder and CEO, said: “We now have multiple partners across multiple jurisdictions and we have a number of further partnerships due to be announced imminently.

“We are extremely pleased to be partnering with an operator of Grosvenor Casino’s standing. It has a great site and product and we think Fantasy5 will complement its other offerings very well.”

Grosvenor Casinos improved its live & direct offerings in June by introducing a new location and four new live & direct tables.
