After showing off their wares to operators at ICE Totally Gaming, no surprise we're seeing a rush of new license deals and extensions.
Here are a few already announced....

Having recently completed the switch to our brand new platform, this is just the latest in a series of significant improvements to the Matchbook customer experience and a further signal of our intent in 2017 and beyond.
