Rush Street Interactive (RSI) has extended its existing partnership agreement with Gaming Realms Inc, which currently distributes its full Slingo Originals portfolio in New Jersey, to incorporate the additional state of RSI’s largest territory, Pennsylvania.

The expansion marks Gaming Realms’ first multi-state agreement with RSI as the developer and licensor of mobile-focused gaming content continues to focus on increasing its presence in the US.

Under the terms of the expanded agreement, Gaming Realms’ Slingo Originals content will now be directly integrated into RSI’s platform, eliminating the need for distribution via a third-party aggregator.  

According to a statement this direct integration with RSI for all US markets, including any future markets the parties may decide to enter into together, is set to not only strengthen the relationship between RSI and Gaming Realms, but to offer a stronger user experience that leads to enhanced margins for the group.

Michael Buckley, Executive Chairman of Gaming Realms, commented: “We are incredibly excited to be expanding our existing licensing agreement with Rush Street Interactive, a major player in the US gaming industry that has recently announced its intention to list on the New York Stock Exchange.

“The agreement underscores the quality and popularity of the group’s Slingo portfolio, and as we increase our foothold in the US market, we are delighted to be able to bring our content to a new audience, starting in the US State of Pennsylvania, where RSI leads in online casino market share.

“We look forward to continuing to work closely and expanding our relationship with such a highly acclaimed US operator, whilst remaining focused on our shared commitment to create and offer exciting and innovative content for players across all markets.”

Richard Schwartz, President of Rush Street Interactive, commented: “We are excited to extend our partnership with Gaming Realms to be the first online operator in Pennsylvania to bring these top quality and well-known casino games to our players.

“Our PlaySugarHouse.com players in New Jersey love the Slingo Originals portfolio and we have no doubt our players in Pennsylvania will have fun playing these fan favourite, iconic online games just as much.”
