This move enables FDJ to round out our presence in the online gaming market, in line with our strategy focusing on growth and ongoing innovation, based on a business model that combines performance and responsibility to keep gaming fun.”

FDJ’s range will be expanded to include all online poker formats approved by the French National Gambling Authority (ANJ). Players will be able to choose between a variety of poker formats including Sit & Go, Jackpot Sit & Go, cash games and multi-table tournaments. This range will also soon be available via other channels such as dedicated poker applications, downloadable software and the ParionsSport en ligne website.
