“Both the German and UK markets are large and growing rapidly.

“The acquisition of the Interclick assets further accelerates our strategy and expansion beyond Scandinavia, and will be a beneficial contribution from day one.”

Cherry CEO Fredrik Burvall said: “The acquisition of the domains puts Cherry and Game Lounge in a stronger position in the affiliate sector, especially within the German and UK markets.

“We have been very pleased with the performance of Game Lounge so far, and this acquisition is very much in line with Cherry’s expansion plans.

“The affiliate market is an important part of the online gaming industry and Cherry continues to strengthen its online business with this acquisition.”
