High Roller Technologies has teamed up with Playtech to enter the regulated online gaming market in Ontario, Canada.
The partnership will see Playtech provide the technology to power High Roller’s platform in Ontario, where the company plans to launch its flagship online casino brand HighRoller.com in the second half of 2025.
“Collaborating with Playtech in Ontario is an exciting step for High Roller as we continue to grow and evolve,” said High Roller Technologies chief executive Ben Clemes. “Playtech’s well-established technology will be instrumental to our mission of providing a world-class entertainment experience for our players.”
High Roller announced the submission of its Ontario license application last week, which Clemes described as an important milestone in the company’s journey.
“Ontario is missing an elegant brand like High Roller,” he said. “We’re excited to roll out the red carpet for our new customers, and we’re looking forward to showcasing our tremendous product.”
Sergey Harutyunyan, chief revenue officer at Playtech, commented: “We are delighted to partner with High Roller as they expand into Ontario.
“Playtech’s technology is designed to support operators in regulated markets, and we look forward to working together to provide High Roller’s players with safe, innovative, and engaging gaming experiences.”
Ontario’s regulated online betting and gaming market had total wagers (excl. promos) of CA$82.7 billion in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025. Revenue for the year amounted to $3.2 billion, comprised of $2.4 billion in online gaming revenue, $724 million in online betting revenue, and $66 million from online poker.
