Signing a three-year deal with Gaming Media Group Limited, the owner of The Poker Channel, CryptoLogic has announced that together they will be developing software for a new online casino room.  Gaming Media Group Limited is also the owner of Poker Heaven, a major European poker room.  The agreement was made through CryptoLogic’s subsidiary company WagerLogic Limited.  The games will be offered in five different languages, should be available internationally later this year, and will be the sole provider of the software for the duration of the contract.

CrytopLogic’s President and CEO Brian Hadfield has stated that they planned on taking the company to the ‘next level of online gaming’ and they feel that plan is being executed well with the new contract.  "Gaming Media Group's commitment to promote the games through advertising means new profile for CryptoLogic products that takes them to new people and new places."

Gaming Media Group Limited has had major success with its Poker Channel who recently announced that it was launching in the Netherlands.  It is currently broadcasting in 16 different European markets.  The channel offers more than 600 hours of premium programming and 65% of their regular viewers visit their affiliated gaming site every day.  Poker Channel Europe offers on-demand programming for their viewers.  Poker Heaven, the online poker room, is one of the most well-known brands in Europe and it has a player base that stretches across Europe.  It is advertised both online and on television.

Gaming Media Group’s CEP Crispin Nieboer stated that the agreement with CryptoLogic will offer their company unique, branded games that will work well with the television advertising and interactive television gaming services they are getting ready to offer their viewers.  They are determined to offer their players the best online casino games possible and hope that it will drive the growth of their bottom line.

Gaming Media Group will be joining other major online operators that are already using CryptoLogic developed software.  They will join William Hill Casino, InterCasino, and 888 Casino as patrons of CryptoLogic and both companies are looking forward to the ‘unbeatable experience’ players around the world will be getting by the partnership.   

CryptoLogic also entered into a similar agreement with Sky Betting and Gaming, a part of BSkyB Group plc.  WagerLogic Ltd. is once again involved with this contract and the e-gaming leader’s top non-downloadable casino games will be available in 2009 on SkyVegas.com.
