Oryx Gaming has put pen to paper on a full turnkey deal with Gauselmann Group umbrella brand Merkur to launch its platform and content in the Czech Republic.

The online operator will also leverage the Slovenian provider’s Player Account Management (PAM) iGaming platform in addition to operational services including fraud and data management, KYC and payments.

- Tournaments with Realtime Leaderboards

Each of which has been designed to enhance the player experience, boost online casino operator KPIs and increase player lifetime value (LTV) via a single centralized system.
