Evolution Group, a leader in B2B casino solutions, has announced the extension of its partnership with FanDuel Casino in the United States market. This renewed agreement ensures Evolution remains FanDuel’s exclusive provider of core live dealer casino games for another three years, marking the second extension since the collaboration began in 2020.
FanDuel players will continue to enjoy access to a comprehensive suite of Evolution and Ezugi live casino games, alongside a range of high-performing slots from NetEnt, Red Tiger, Big Time Gaming, and Nolimit City. These offerings solidify FanDuel’s position as a top-tier online casino operator with the largest portfolio of exclusive live dealer tables in the U.S.
Jacob Claesson, CEO of Evolution North America, expressed his enthusiasm for the extended collaboration. “We are thrilled to extend our successful partnership with FanDuel, providing players with the very best in online casino entertainment. FanDuel’s trust in Evolution highlights our shared commitment to growing the live casino market and creating a truly immersive experience for players across North America,” Claesson stated.
Strengthening a Proven Partnership
The Evolution-FanDuel collaboration initially launched in 2020 with the integration of live dealer games into the FanDuel Casino platform. Since then, the partnership has grown, with FanDuel maintaining a market-leading position in the live casino segment.
Asaf Noifeld, Managing Director of FanDuel Casino, emphasized the importance of this extension for the company’s strategy. “Expanding our partnership with Evolution for Live Casino and RNG games enables us to consistently provide a top-tier experience to our customers. We look forward to our continued growth in the Live Casino sector,” Noifeld said.
This announcement aligns with Flutter Entertainment’s Q3 earnings report, where executives revealed that FanDuel Casino had achieved a 25% gaming revenue market share during the quarter, reflecting the brand’s success in the competitive U.S. iGaming space.
Evolution’s Continued U.S. Expansion
Beyond its partnership with FanDuel, Evolution has established itself as a key player in the U.S. iGaming market. The company collaborates with other major operators, including BetMGM, Rush Street Interactive, and Caesars, and has made significant moves in 2024 to strengthen its position.
In addition to the FanDuel renewal, Evolution announced a deal to acquire Las Vegas-based Galaxy Gaming, aiming to expand its influence in the U.S. casino market. Moreover, the company launched Nolimit City slot games simultaneously across six U.S. states, showcasing its commitment to delivering innovative gaming experiences nationwide.
As Evolution continues to grow, it is also addressing legal challenges. A recent court ruling indicates that the company’s lawsuit against Light & Wonder will proceed. Filed in June, the lawsuit accuses Light & Wonder of infringing on Evolution’s intellectual property related to its Lightning Roulette product.
