Inspired Entertainment Inc has entered into an exclusive agreement with The CAGE Companies and its subsidiary, CAGE Sports BV, to offer virtual sports in CAGE’s retail outlets and interactive channels throughout the Caribbean.
CAGE, which operates in the Caribbean and South America, will integrate Inspired’s V-Play Plug & Play (VPP) product solution across its interactive channels through online platforms and its virtual sports to retail venues throughout the Caribbean.
VPP includes multiple custom sports variants for CAGE customers, including virtual cricket, which Inspired will be introducing for the first time as part of its VPP solution given the popularity of the sport in the Caribbean.
Robert L Johnson, Majority Owner of the CAGE Companies, stated: “We are thrilled to be able to offer Inspired’s leading virtual sports to our customer base in the Caribbean, providing an engaging betting experience and further complementing our sports betting business.
“With Inspired’s virtuals, and cricket in particular, our customers’ favorite sports seasons don’t have to end and our retailers can enjoy the financial benefits of the extended season.”
Brooks Pierce, President and COO of Inspired, said: “The CAGE Companies have established themselves as the Caribbean’s premier gaming route operator and Robert L Johnson is a true visionary. We are looking forward to working with them and extending our partnership to deploy our leading content into the market.
“Our virtuals have proven popular in Europe, Asia, Africa and North America and we see the Caribbean as an opportunity to showcase the strength of our overall offerings.”
Robert B Washington, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of the CAGE Companies, added: “We look forward to starting up our virtual sports operations in a number of Caribbean countries where CAGE Sports has existing licenses or management agreements during the late first quarter/early second quarter 2021.
“We are also excited about partnering with Inspired in creating new ‘Caribbean Legends of Cricket’ virtual sports games which we believe will create customer excitement in the Caribbean community and beyond.”
