3 Oaks Gaming, a distributor of iGaming content, has announced a strategic partnership with Betclic, marking its official entry into the Portuguese iGaming market.
Through this collaboration, Betclic.pt users will gain access to a range of popular slot titles from 3 Oaks Gaming, including Aztec Fire, Grab the Gold, and More Magic Apple. This partnership introduces fresh content to one of Portugal’s leading online gaming platforms.
Betclic made history in 2016 as the first operator to secure a Portuguese online betting licence and continues to hold a prominent position in the country’s iGaming landscape. The online gaming market in Portugal is expected to see significant growth, with projections indicating that by 2029, the user base could exceed 800,000, contributing to market revenue estimates of €969.40 million, according to Statista.
The integration of 3 Oaks Gaming’s content with Betclic is facilitated through IGT PlayDigital. This platform provides operators with access to a broad range of content providers, along with robust player engagement and loyalty tools, all via a single integration.
As part of its expansion efforts, 3 Oaks Gaming ensured that 40 of its titles met the regulatory requirements established by the Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos Turismo de Portugal (SRIJ) earlier this year.
This partnership is a key step in 3 Oaks Gaming’s global expansion strategy, reflecting its ongoing efforts to enter regulated markets and deliver its diverse portfolio to a wider international audience.
Yuriy Muratov, Chief Commercial Officer at 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “We are thrilled to partner with Betclic, a recognised leader in Portugal’s online gaming sector. This collaboration aligns seamlessly with our growth strategy, allowing us to expand our reach into one of Europe’s key regulated markets thanks to IGT PlayDigital’s platform.”
Marc Burroughes, Senior Director of Aggregation at IGT PlayDigital, commented: “IGT Play Digital Aggregation are proud to make this partnership happen and at the same time contribute to 3 Oaks Gaming’s market expansion in Portugal.”
