Gamebookers.com has a new Owner: Trident Gaming

Trident Gaming, a supplier of sports betting services, has recently announced the acquisition of gamebookers.com, a European online sports gambling supplier, which was established in June 2000.

After buying BetBug, a U.S.-facing peer-to-peer sports gambling exchange the previous month, this purchase makes Trident the only company in the world, having a regulatory compliant online betting platform for both the European and U.S. industries.

The acquisition of gamebookers.com was financed with 20 million pounds Sterling of exchangeable debt and over 9.3 million shares in Trident Gaming. The debt was set up by Advicorp and Seymour Pierce.

"BetBug has found the only legal way it can offer online sports gambling in the United States," declared John O'Malia, CEO of Trident Gaming. "And now with the purchase of gamebookers, and its hugely successful sports book together with three active European gaming licenses, the directors think that Trident is exclusively well-positioned for international achievement.

"Trident is also planning to offer its sports gambling platforms so other top-tier international online casino and poker groups can legally present sports betting across the United States and Europe," declared O'Malia.

"Due to the fact that we have found a legal way to provide players with gambling and betting options, we expect to build on our current licensee base and rapidly expand our white label partnerships with major online gaming providers."

Talking about a white label partnership, Trident would offer all the back-end technical assistance and preservation, but the customer-facing front-end would carry the licensee's design and branding, complimenting their present contributions.
