Its new Senior Vice President of Interactive Gaming &amp; Sports, <strong>Matthew Cullen<\/strong>, will drive the efforts to bring online casino gaming and sports betting to Pennsylvanians.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMatthew is joining the Parx Casino team at a very exciting time for our company. With online gaming and sports betting on the near horizon, Parx Casino is perfectly positioned to offer our guests the absolute best gaming and entertainment experience anywhere in the region,\u201d said Chief Technology Officer John Dixon in a press release.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMatthew\u2019s unique professional pedigree of online gaming, corporate development, marketing, product and business strategy, and digital technology, makes him an ideal person to lead our expanding business footprint.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Cullen brings 25 years of experience in online gaming and digital media to Parx. Previously, he served as CEO of <strong>San Manuel Digital<\/strong>, President of RocketPlay now <strong>PlayAGS<\/strong> (AGS), and Vice President of US New Ventures <strong>Paddy Power Betfair<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"parx_partnering_with_gan_to_launch_online_gambling\">Parx partnering with GAN to launch online gambling<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Earlier this week, GAN confirmed an expansion to its partnership with Parx Casino. Greenwood Gaming filed a petition with the <strong>Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board<\/strong> (PGCB) naming <strong>GAN<\/strong> as their online gaming platform.<\/p>\n<p>The is not the first time, Parx and GAN worked together. In March 2015, Parx launched freeplay gaming on GAN\u2019s platform. The social gaming site will remain available once real-money iGaming launches.<\/p>\n<p>One of the benefits of the Parx \u2013 GAN relationship is the ability to<strong> link<\/strong> the land-based casino\u2019s reward program with a player\u2019s online account.<\/p>\n<p>GAN\u2019s US-patented technology is attractive to players. They can<strong> earn rewards<\/strong> both online and on-property and redeem them for cash online or special offers on site. This type of differentiation between online casinos is very important in what is expected to be a<strong> crowded<\/strong> Pennsylvania online gambling market.<\/p>\n<p>GAN has 15 years experience in providing real-money and simulated-gaming software services to the internet gaming industry. Most recently, it partnered with <strong>Ocean Resort Casino<\/strong> to\u00a0launch of its new online casino in <strong>New Jersey<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>John Dixon<\/strong>, CTO of Greenwood Entertainment &amp; Racing, Inc commented to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/press-release\/gan-to-launch-parx-casino-internet-gaming-in-pennsylvania-2018-07-16\">MarketWatch<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cGAN has demonstrated its Regulated Gaming capability in New Jersey and the merits of integrating with a casino management system. Parx Casino will have the opportunity to launch Regulated Gaming in Pennsylvania later this year, subject to the regulatory approval of the PGCB.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><span id=\"9_pa_casinos_apply_for_regulated_gaming_licenses\">9 PA casinos apply for regulated gaming licenses<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The initial round of the application process offered a discounted license fees of <strong>$10 million<\/strong> for casinos seeking to provide online slots, online table games, and online poker. Nine of Pennsylvania\u2019s 13 casinos took advantage of the discount:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Parx<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Stadium Casino<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Mount Airy<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sands Bethlehem<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Hollywood Casino<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Valley Forge<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Harrah\u2019s Philadelphia<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Rivers Casino<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugarhouse Casino<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The four remaining casinos can pay $4 million for individual licenses in each of the three categories. Those casinos are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Meadows Casino<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Mohegan Sun Pocono<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Presque Isle Downs<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Lady Luck Nemacolin<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The first to market in the Pennsylvania regulated gaming industry is vital to becoming a leader in the space. Parx is taking all the steps it needs to ensure it is<strong> ready to launch on day on<\/strong>e. Partnering with GAN and bringing top talent on board gives the casino a good head start.<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo by\u00a0zaidi razak\u00a0\/\u00a0Shutterstock.com<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The post Parx Casino Already Staffing Up For Online Gaming Launch appeared first on Play Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parx Casino is moving forward at full speed to launch regulated PA online gaming.
