Nolimit teams up with Betclic for Portuguese roll-out
By Gambling Insider

The Malta-based iGaming content provider will bring its products to Portuguese players after inking a deal with French operator Betclic.

Several of the studio’s more popular titles will be made available to customers via Betclic.PT, the operator’s Portuguese domain, including Deadwood, San Quentin and Tombstone.

Commenting on the partnership, Zoltan Rapp, Casino Specialist at Betclic Group, said: “Driven by a customer-centric, mobile-first approach, and the passion for entertaining our valued players, we share core values with Nolimit City, whose state of the art and innovative casino games portfolio will be an excellent addition to our offering in Portugal. The consistency and quality of their games predestine that they will be popular among our customers.”

This follows the news of Nolimit receiving a licence to operate in Romania from the nation’s top gambling body, ONJN (the National Office for Gambling), as well as the announcement of an exclusive partnership with Betflag.IT for the Italian market.

Now with this deal, Portugal has been added to the list of jurisdictions in which players can access the studio’s content, though it comes as the country debates a daytime ban on gambling ads.

Four bills have been floated in the Assembly of the Republic that would set a watershed on when companies could advertise gambling and betting, however, Malcolm Mizzi, the CCO and MD at Nolimit, was enthusiastic about the provider’s Portuguese expansion.

“Having achieved yet another regulated milestone in such a short span of time, after announcing our games in Italy, makes us extremely proud of our continued momentum,” said Mizzi. “Betclic, an already astounding partner, has helped us achieve this goal in none other than Portugal, one of the most coveted EU markets out there.”
