Genesis Global Casino Operator Takes Home EGR Nordic Awards 2020
Genesis Global received the EGR Nordic Pay N Play Operator of the Year award. Five of its casinos were also shortlisted in other categories, highlighting the operator’s work in the online casino sector.
The EGR Nordic Awards ceremony took place on 28 January 2020 at the Hilton Hotel in Malta. It recognizes companies for achievements and innovation in online gambling across the Nordic region. Categories included Casino Content Supplier, Customer Services Operator, Mobile Operator, Casino Platform Supplier, Casino Operator, Sports Betting Operator and Pay N Play Operator of the Year.
Other award entrants included Evolution Gaming, Playtech, Scientific Games, Leo Vegas and Mr Green, all of which received an award in Malta. Genesis Global’s Pay N Play Operator of the Year win came shortly before it launched its eleventh Pay N Play casino, Casoola.
Three of the operator’s eleven casinos stood out at the NGR Nordic Awards 2020: Spela Casino, Pelaa Casino and Kassu Casino. Each launched between 2018 and 2019. Their simple interfaces and instant-play features on mobile and desktop attracted attention in the Play N Play market.
Genesis Global’s casinos were also shortlisted in five other NGR Nordic 2020 categories, giving the company more opportunities to add to its award tally.
Genesis Global CEO Ariel Reem accepted the award on the operator’s behalf. He said he was proud of the win and that receiving the Pay N Play Operator of the Year honour felt incredible. Reem described it as an ideal start to the new decade and credited his team’s passion for the company’s success in the category.
The win was a significant achievement for Genesis Global and its casino brands. The company entered the online casino business in 2014 and established a presence at the EGR Awards over the next six years. The ceremony brings together companies competing across the online casino industry.
Casino Ideal’s coverage highlighted Genesis Global from the launch of its first online casino, Genesis Casino. At the time, the operator’s portfolio had grown to eleven casinos, with further launches anticipated over the following decade, each with its own theme.
The casinos offered more than 1,300 casino games, including video slots, virtual table games and an extensive live dealer selection. NetEnt and Evolution Gaming supplied live dealer tables. The report also said each Genesis casino had a distinct theme and held licences from the UKGC and MGA.
