UK based payment processor Optimal Payments has been selected as the financial gateway for Caesars Interactive and their online poker venture.
In preparation for the launch of virtual poker in Nevada, Caesars has chosen the Isle of Man based company to handle their deposits, withdrawals and all fraud management measures related to these processes.
Optimal Payments are the owners of NETeller, NetBanx and Net+ and will now become one of the major players in the start of what could be the re-emergence of the US online poker market.
Commenting on the partnership, Optimal's CEO Joel Leonoff said:
"This is a groundbreaking deal for Optimal Payments and demonstrates our ability to provide real value to globally renowned, land-based gaming operators and their leading brands, as the first step in our strategy to capitalize on the regulated U.S. market."
