Konami Gaming’s real-money iGaming offering has gone live in Italy for the first time through Lottomatica Group’s Betflag brand.
Betflag becomes the first operator in the country to offer slots from the newly established Konami Online Interactive division, including titles such as All Aboard, China Shores, and Lotus Land.
“The Italian launch of Konami Online Interactive with Betflag is a milestone moment, further highlighting Betflag’s longtime market leadership and innovation,” said Konami Gaming vice president of iGaming & international gaming operations Eduardo Aching, a Gaming Intelligence Hot 50 of 2026 honouree. “Betflag players in Italy are among Europe’s first to experience online entertainment that we aim to deliver to many more regulated iGaming markets worldwide.”
Laviero Saganeiti, casino business developer at Betflag, said: “Service and entertainment stand at the forefront of Betflag’s popular success, which we are excited to expand to even greater heights with Italy’s debut premiere of Konami real-money online slots.
“The depth, variety, and global prominence of the game content available with Konami Online Interactive will serve our online players for years to come.”
