Emerging-markets leader expands its content portfolio in twin-strike integration from two key branches of the revered supplier
QTech Games, the number-one games distributor across all emerging markets, has continued to build the strong momentum in its premium pipeline, thanks to its latest twin-strike partnership with Playtech Casino, an emerging icasino force from the world’s largest online gaming technology supplier, and Playtech Live, its sought-after live-dealer offering.
Integrating more award-winning casino content from one of the most revered and respected online gaming software providers adds yet more muscle to QTech Games’ burgeoning platform, which is taking the widest range of online games to emerging territories with established names, such as Evolution and Yggdrasil, sitting alongside the industry’s most exciting up-and-coming providers.
An initial Playtech Casino slots integration was enhanced in swift succession this week by a subsequent integration from Playtech Live, which is raising the bar for an immersive RNG and live experience in the increasingly popular live-dealer vertical.
The live-dealer domain continues to gather momentum for a worldwide fanbase. And Playtech Live’s authentic digital table games are accelerating this trend, creating a real land-based-casino experience online, with traditional titles now sitting alongside an array of regional favourites. Accordingly, these games now all form part of the progressive portfolio made available to QTech Games, its partners and the culturally-varied proclivities of their players.
Playtech’s gaming suite has been optimised for mobile, a cornerstone of QTech’s RNG model, which is founded on its fully-owned and customised technical platform, affording games providers and operators the fastest integration available. Through this leading platform, which has sealed its definitive status as a global gaming one-stop shop, clients enjoy the best performance and customer support available, localised to every region across both developing and more mature markets.
The deal organically deepens Playtech’s international footprint worldwide.

Clarion secure €2.4 million hotel discounts for visitors attending Barcelona editions of ICE and iGB Affiliate
Clarion Gaming has negotiated a cumulative Barcelona hotel discount of up to €2.4 million on behalf of the industry during January’s ICE and iGB Affiliate shows, the first editions to be held in the Catalan City.
The rates, which are delivering an average saving of 34% per night compared to what’s available by going direct, have been secured as part of the landmark relocation of ICE and iGB Affiliate.
Clarion Gaming Managing Director, Stuart Hunter confirmed the value of being able to access competitively priced accommodation. He said: “From the outset of the competitive bid process to host the world leading b2b shows which began March 2023 a non-negotiable requirement for the city/venue bids was the availability of comfortable overnight accommodation at significantly discounted rates and across key price points.
“Part of the Barcelona bid was a guarantee that we could secure a minimum of 40,000 hotel nights each year at the lowest rates possible for the duration of the five-year tenancy. This has been delivered with the rooms only available via BNetwork, the official accommodation partner that we have appointed.”
He added: “The feedback that we are receiving anecdotally from the industry and confirmed by the booking data is that attendees are making their arrangements earlier and are alsoscheduling their trips to arrive in Barcelona on the weekend preceding the show opening.
“To a large extent visitors are treating their annual pilgrimage to ICE/iGB Affiliate as a City Break and we are planning a suite of Clarion Gaming curated hospitality offerings to deliver a blended ‘work, rest and play’ experience.”
“We will be launching ‘The Road to Barcelona’ guide which will talk through the best ways for visitors to attend ICE/iGB Affiliate and enjoy their time in the historic city.
“We are being told by the market that exhibitors more so than at any time in the past will be using the global platform provided by ICE/iGB Affiliate to launch their game-changing new products and innovations to what promises to be the biggest gathering of gambling professionals in history.”
