GTECH G2, the supplier of interactive software for online gambling applications, has issued a press statement which states that the French bookmaker EuroSportBet, which has integrated the company’s sports betting platform MarginMaker, can now allow its players to place bets on horse races.

GTECH G2 stated that EuroSportBet was developed jointly and that the public application programming interfaces of the MarginMaker platform were used in order to create a version of EuroSportBet, which since June has allowed players to place bets on a host of sports including rugby, football and tennis.

“We very much look forward to helping EuroSportBet and its British counterpart EuroSportBetUK preserve their cutting-edge offerings in Great Britain and in France,” said the vice-president of sport betting for GTECH G2. “We are extremely thrilled by MarginMaker’s ability to take bets across many channels and integrate so seamlessly with a host of products.”

One of the few horse racing operators in France
GTECH G2 is a subsidiary of GTECH Corporation, the online gambling services company which is based in the United States. The company declared that the owner of EuroSportBet and its British counterpart, SPS SA, was ‘one of the first companies which was able to obtain a licence following the deregulation of the French online gambling market’ and remains ‘one of only a few operators who has obtained a licence for fixed-odds bets on sports’.

Frederic Tardieu, the programme manager for EuroSportBet, had the following to say about the cooperation between the two companies: “The team in charge of sports betting at GTECH G2 provided enormous support during the integration of the new PMC tote system on our MarginMaker platform, from the early stages of the integration to the finalisation of the changes.”

“We are now one of the few French legal online gambling operators who can offer their players sports betting, poker and betting on horse races.”
