QTech Games upgrades video-poker and card game catalogue with Speedy Tomatoes

Leading distributor further enhances its top-quality platform with new games from emerging force in video poker solutions

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for all emerging markets, has announced its latest provider partnership with Speedy Tomatoes, allowing its platform clients access to another multifaceted video-poker and card-game catalogue.

Speedy Tomatoes is an emerging force in video-poker solutions, bringing much-needed innovation and novelty to the non-slots gaming vertical with an aim to attract and captivate new audiences by offering new playing experiences via premium video poker and other well-known card games.

At the heart of such innovation is its Powerpoker™ collection—featuring a modern take on classic video poker. These games will now provide QTech partners with streamlined gameplay via unique features which deliver an unparalleled mobile gaming experience. Familiar titles, like Jacks Or Better, or Deuces Better are now imbued with PowerPoker, features like Swap-A-Card or Side Bet, which elevate the gameplay and online dwell-time for both new and seasoned players.

Speedy Tomatoes focuses on card games that are easy to learn and fun to play, with rewarding paytables which are now underpinned by this disruptive PowerPoker functionality. Through intuitive game flow and time-on-device design, a new era of familiar card games has now also been optimized for mobile portrait to drive higher engagement.

As a result, Speedy Tomatoes is reimagining this gaming vertical so it can reclaim its former glories. Proven to have a positive impact on activity, retention and bottom-line, these omnichannel variants deliver benefits across any number of KPIs – particularly as reliable cross-selling techniques and user-engagement have become ever more elusive in the tightening grip of industry regulation.

As the defining aggregator for growth markets, QTech’s platform boasts the broadest gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, with native mobile apps, powerful reporting and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language support. The combined mission of Speedy Tomatoes and QTech Games is to create resourcing efficiencies for global operators by providing them with the flexible card-game software solutions necessary for complementing a successful online casino offering with the improved engagement and retention metrics of poker and other card games.

Incorporating this ever-evolving production line emphasizes QTech Games’ diverse range of gaming options, providing a definitive one-stop shop, which has quickly become the “go-to” solution for international operators across developing territories.

Asko Heiskanen, CEO & Founder at Speedy Tomatoes, said: “Speedy Tomatoes Entertainment is a dynamic game studio on a mission to rejuvenate the online video poker and wider card-game scene. With a focus on creating simplified, feature-rich games, we will exceed player expectations and raise the bar in this domain.

“Video poker is enjoying a resurgence and this offering with its PowerPoker variants is taking this igaming vertical to the next level, priming players for a new level of engagement. This deal with QTech Games naturally broadens Speedy Tomatoes’ geographic footprint, targeting emerging markets from Africa to Asia and Latin America, thereby creating new sources of revenue. It’s a thrill to see that our titles are now riding on the back of the top aggregator for emerging markets.”

QTech Games CEO, Philip Doftvik, said: “We can’t wait to see how this new breed of card game performs across a range of untapped markets which, in most cases, break new ground for Speedy Tomatoes. They appeal to high-value player segments — players who also care about skill, control, and strategy, and who historically represent the deepest pockets in online gambling. Rewarding payout structures and decision-making moments result in high retention, strong average bets and solid business to operators.

“This multi-faceted portfolio will help any platform partner ensure a complete brand experience that players enjoy and return to, driving deeper engagement and reliable revenue opportunities. These games now all form part of the progressive portfolio made available to QTech Games, our partners, and the culturally varied proclivities of their players across a swathe of greenfield territories.”
