Poker News – Plc, a leading global online payment provider, has been found suitable by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE) to offer payment and risk management solutions to New Jersey licensed providers of Internet gaming.
Optimal Payments is the parent company of Neteller, which has a long history with the world of online poker. Neteller served as the most popular e-wallet option for poker players in the U.S. before the company was forced to leave the country by the Department of Justice post-UIGEA.
Six years later, the Optimal Payments is making its long-awaited return to the U.S. The company has already partnered Caesars Interactive Entertainment, Inc. and Bally Technologies to provide payment solutions and related services.
“We are excited to be an approved vendor in New Jersey and we look forward to leveraging our vast experience and expertise to help facilitate online payments for our partners in New Jersey,” said Joel Leonoff, President and CEO of Optimal Payments.
