Mr. Clucas also described PokerStars as one of the most popular gaming brands that featured massive player base, which would be great for the gaming solutions provided by Quickfire.

Mr. Clucal further shared that the company would continue to work in a close relationship with PokerStars and the brand’s online casino as they were willing to expand their games portfolio through the Quickfire platform.
At the beginning of February 2017, Microgaming revealed that it had inked a major partnership agreement with PokerStars via its Quickfire platform. At the close of the integration, PokerStars’ customers will be available to reach some of the premium Microgaming casino games, such as Mega Moolah, Thunderstruck II, Break Da Bank Again, Immortal Romance, Ariana, etc. The number of exclusive games to be added to the PokerStars Casino’s offering is to increase over the following months.

Under the deal between the two companies, PokerStars received access to the largest number of progressive jackpot game network in the world, as well as to the most extensive gaming portfolio, which also includes branded titles.
The deal was also confirmed by the Director of PokerStars Casino Operations at PokerStars, Bo Wanghammar, who explained that everyone at the brand’s team were very happy with the fact their players could now access some of the best games available in the online casino industry. According to him, the deal would result in further enhancing the brand’s already existing product offering.
He also added that the partnership agreement between PokerStars Casino and Microgaming would help Amaya Inc.’s brand with the chance to offer the best online gaming experience to its customers. Mr. Wanghammar provided further details about the future plans of PokerStars, unveiling the brand’s intentions to expand its Microgaming offering soon.
