Gaming Realms and Express Newspapers launch real-money gaming sites

Bear Group, the AIM-listed company's subsidiary specialising on real-money gaming, has built and will manage two new online gaming websites based around the Star Wins and Express Wins brands owned by the Express.

The owner of the Daily Express and Daily Star papers will market the new websites across their media platforms as part of a three-year deal that includes a revenue share agreement.

"It's fantastic for the group to sign a partnership deal with one of the UK's major newspaper businesses. If successful the partnership is expected to unlock a valuable source of revenue as well as potential further opportunities for collaboration," said chief executive Patrick Southon.
