Betting software group Blueprint Gaming revealed this week that they've been granted a gaming license by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario and will be able to offer games in the province when it launches next month.
The license will see more than 50 of Blueprint's games being offered to casinos, which will then be offered to players. Titles like 'The Goonies', 'Ted', and 'Le Banquier' (Canada's take on Deal or No Deal) are among the games being launched on the outset, with more games being released as they're developed and launched.
Blueprint's Jackpot King progressive system is also making the transition, offering big progressive prizes to customers.
"Ontario has the potential to become one of the biggest iGaming markets in North America, so being able to service the province from day one is a hugely important move for the company," said Blueprint Gaming Director of Key Accounts and Marketing Jo Purvis. "Players in Canada already enjoy our style of games and we have strong expectations for the market. We're looking forward to bringing our content to a much wider audience."
Ontario's online gaming market launches in early April, after politicians voted to legalize and regulate the activity. Previously, online betting was only available through PlayOLG, which was run by the government.
