Greentube – Capecod Solutions Deal
In a move that will significantly bolster its presence within Italy, Greentube will integrate Capecod Solutions’ products into its in-house development department.
More importantly, the acquisition will give the developer the resources to produce a strong lineup of localized games that will captivate Italian iGaming players.
Capecod Solution has supplied Novomatic Italia with some of its top-performing titles for the past four years. Now under Greentube, the said game development firm will be playing an equally important role in expanding the geographical reach of Novomatic’s Interactive unit.
Apart from upgrading Greentube’s game development capabilities, the acquisition of Capecod falls in line with Novomatic’s omnichannel strategy.
Capecod, the newest addition to NovoElsy’s game portfolio, will also share its game development capabilities to Novomatic Italia’s land-based clients in the AWP segment. Also part of its new role is to oversee the provision of Novomatic Italia’s conversions of AWP titles to operators in the country, ensuring a nonstop stream of new games for both online and AWP customers.

Michael Bauer, CFO/CGO at Greentube, explained: “This acquisition ticks all the boxes, strengthening our hand in Italy across both online and land-based sectors.

Markus Buechele, CEO of Novomatic Italia, commented: “It is an honour to be able to bring all of the know-how and experience gained in recent years through working with the renowned software house Capecod to the whole Novomatic AG Group.
