staff; over 5 million transactions processed daily; around 7 billion
page views served weekly; licenses in Gibraltar (sport betting), Italy
(sports betting), United States (wagering), Australia (sports betting),
Malta (casino); official betting partner of Manchester United, FC
Barcelona and Ascot Racecourse; listed on the London Stock Exchange.
Their online casino is owned and operated by Malta

subsidiary Betfair Casino Limited and the software that they have chosen
for their live games is Playtech's European dealer platform.
