Scout Gaming extends agreement with Kaizen Gaming – being the first operator to launch a Daily Fantasy Sports product in the Greek market, Kaizen Gaming, the recently renamed group behind the brands Stoiximan and Betano, has reaffirmed its long-term successful use of Scout Gaming products.

The parties have entered into a new agreement which will replace the one entered in May 2018. As a direct consequence of the good results enjoyed by Kaizen Gaming from the use of Scout Gaming’s DFS product in the Greek market under its flagship brand Stoiximan.gr, the parties have decided to extend the collaboration, taking a long-term strategic and mutually beneficial view to the partnership, focusing on launch of new products in Greece as well as expand the partnership into other markets. The agreement also includes certain unique rights given to Kaizen Gaming for the use of Scout Gaming’s products under a certain time frame.

The new agreement will enable Kaizen Gaming to launch all additional games currently found in Scout Gaming’s product portfolio, including Player Performance Odds and Player Matchups, as well as expand into additional markets through its international brand, Betano. Further on, the parties will together aim at bringing to life new products by either finding new applications to existing products or creation of innovative new games.

“We are honored to strengthen our partnership with one of Europe’s fastest emerging GameTech companies. Kaizen has been quick to spot and act on the positive trend enjoyed by the European DFS market and the results have been amazing. We are looking forward to supporting their growth with our products. Being able to forge a strong long-lasting partnership with an exceptional business such as Kaizen Gaming is the best proof one can get to the quality of our products and the team behind it” comments Joakim Renman, CCO of Scout Gaming.

“Scout Gaming shares the same values of continuous improvement and our collaboration grows hand in hand through innovative products and services. Providing an optimum experience to those who trust us is a key objective for our customer centric approach and collaboration with Scout Gaming is proven to be instrumental on this one. It has been a pleasure to work with the team at Scout Gaming and the level of the quality of its service has truly stood out as one of the best in the business. We are confident that launching of additional products delivered by Scout Gaming will enhance our product offering and deliver more value to our business.” commented Chris Tzalavras, Head of Commercial at Stoiximan on Kaizen Gaming.
