Gala Coral extends deal with Inspired to include mobile

UK online and land gambling firm Gala Coral has confirmed that it has extended its licensing provision for virtual sports betting to its mobile offering following an agreement with Inspired Group.

The extension develops the business relationship between the two British companies beyond the seven channels covered by the original licensing agreement for both online and retail shop delivery of over 3,000 international sports events a day, embracing a wide variety of sports.

Steve Rogers, an Inspired Group executive, said: “Inspired has led the industry charge for virtual sports on mobile, which is a huge area of growth for operators. We are committed to lead, advise and maximize the mobile opportunity – some of our customers are already reporting that their virtual income on mobile is over-taking their virtual income on desktop.”

Commenting that his company is ahead of the competition when it comes to mobile, Keith O’Loughlin of Coral Sport said: “Our deal with Inspired means that we will have the best sports channels available to our customers, in shop, online and now on their mobiles, allowing them to move seamlessly from one platform to the next – all with our single wallet.”

Inspired also provides Gala Coral with multichannel mobile content, via Virgo, its Remote Gaming Server product.
