Penn National selects IGT and their PlayDigital platform as its partner for Pennsylvania online gambling. The company is hoping to launch in the state during the first quarter of next year.

The Penn Online Entertainment division has signed a five-year deal by which its brand HollywoodCasino.com will be powered by PlayDigital’s full suite of digital gaming products, including the platform, and services.

The fact that Penn National selects IGT digital gaming platform, PlayCommand, will enable their online gaming for Pennsylvania-based customers via HollywoodCasino.com. Penn National will also leverage IGT’s PlayCasino, PlayBingo and PlayPoker online solutions.

IGT’s latest win comes after it was recently appointed to power FanDuel’s platform in New Jersey.

Enrico Drago, senior vice-president for PlayDigital at IGT, said: “The newly regulated Pennsylvania online gaming market presents an exciting opportunity for IGT to extend the success of our PlayCommand platform and PlayCasino to Penn National as it expands the scope of its entertainment offering.”
