Evolution to Undertake DigiWheel

Evolution, a forward-thinking provider of live casino games, has acquired DigiWheel, an excellent developer of HD spinning gaming wheels. This transaction will represent an all-cash deal with an up-front consideration of EUR 1 million. In addition, the provider will compensate an earn-out fee, based on DigiWheel’s EBITDA within the last three years. The deal will be sealed by the end of 2021 and subject to closing conditions.

The agreement will further boost Evolution’s position in the market via its latest partner’s exclusive and inventive digital solutions fused into Evolution’s live casino releases and game shows. The brand’s catalog already consists of wheel-based titles such as Dream Catcher, Crazy Time, and more.

DigiWheel will perform its activities as an independent brand within the Evolution Group alongside other companies such as NetEnt, Red Tiger, Ezugi, and Big Time Gaming. It will provide additional diversity to the supplier’s product offering for online and land-based brands.

The DigiWheel product is a unique solution, featuring a 360-degree, rotating HD wheel that can work as a live game. At the same time, the spinning wheel features an HD screen, that has the possibility to run any money wheel or prize wheel game such as Evolution’s game show wheel content.

Reacting to the newest announcement, CEO at Evolution Group, Martin Carlesund said:

“We are always looking out for interesting technology and have been impressed by what DigiWheel have developed. I am delighted we have reached this agreement. DigiWheel is an excellent fit with Evolution’s product offering.

DigiWheel’s CEO, John Purcell, notes that the latest milestone provides the team with a great deal of satisfaction. The team has made tremendous efforts over the nine years to deliver an excellent product with unique features and maximum innovation. The newest deal will see its unique products and technology distributed via Evolution and introduced to a wider audience of operators and users.
