SG Digital Partners with Lightning Box

SG Digital ha signed a deal with Australian slot developer Lightning Box under which SG will provide Lightning Box content to online casino operators in North America.

Sydney, Australia-based online slot developer Lightning Box has agreed to supply its content to online operators in North America via an expanded deal with SG Digital.

The Sydney-based supplier’s popular games will go live in New Jersey in an initial rollout early in 2019.

Among the titles that will be made available to mobile and desktop players will be Jackaroo Jack, Respin Rhino, Astro Cat and the forthcoming Stellar Jackpot Silver Lion.

“This partnership with SG Digital will allow us to build on our already strong U.S. land-based footprint with new exposure to players in online casino, both in New Jersey and up into Canada,” said Peter Causley, managing director and co-founder of Lightning Box.

“This will kick-start a mutually beneficial commercial relationship in the coming months as we expand on our content provision. It will also hopefully provide the springboard for further rollouts as and when more U.S. states regulate. SG Digital is perfectly positioned to help us expand our market presence in North America.”

Dylan Slaney, senior vice president, gaming for SG Digital, added, “Lightning Box’s gaming content is a proven performer for us in online casino in Europe, and we look forward to working together with them in North America as well.

“This deal is a great reflection on the global opportunities we can offer to our content partners. Adding their fresh, quality games will help us provide our customers with more varied content to entertain and engage their online customers.”

Earlier this year, Lightning Box cemented its position in online social casino in the U.S. by signing an agreement with Penn Interactive. They are also integrated with social pioneers High 5 Gaming, and are present in the U.S. land-based casino market through partnerships with slot-makers Incredible Technologies and Everi Holdings.
