Intertops World’s First Online Sportsbook Joins Cake Network
The Cake Network, one of the industry's leading online poker networks, is very pleased to announce that longtime industry leader Intertops has become their newest network addition - adding to an already impressive selection of world class partners.
Intertops brings fourteen years of online gaming experience to the Cake Network and holds the distinction of being the first company to ever accept an online sports bet.
"We are extremely excited to be joining the Cake Network," stated Michl Posch, the marketing director of Intertops. "Their solid partnership approach and provision of an industry-leading rewards program will help us bring the best possible online poker experience to our sports bettors, casino and poker players."
This newest partnership, when coupled with the network's aggressive expansion into Europe and Asia, has created a vibrant environment where poker enthusiasts from around the globe can come together to play the games they want, at the stakes they are looking for, at any time of the day. The Cake Network has been able to successfully collaborate with many renowned operators including: Doyle's Room, The Greek, Power Poker, Red Star Poker and Sports Interaction. More exciting partner additions are expected in 2010 due in part to the Cake Network's recently announced letter of intent for licensing approval from the Malta Lotteries and Gaming Authority in addition to the Cake Network's continued flexibility and commitment to work with partners in finding unique solutions that benefit all parties.
"Having such a pioneering and respected sportsbook choose the Cake Network for its poker solution is a real honor," stated Andrew Turner Director of Marketing for the Cake Network. "We are excited about providing Intertops players with access to our industry-leading rewards programs and exclusive promotions."
Cake Network caters to a select group of partners; ones that uphold its company values and require a more tailored service rather than a standard "off the shelf" solution. Whether partners are looking to add poker to an existing site or upgrade their current poker offering, the Cake Network positions them to succeed by providing a wide range of customizable services and solutions. Partner success is ensured by the Cake Network's flexibility, liquidity and integrity. Cake's philosophy towards partnership is simple: offer world class solutions to world class partners.
