Paysafe to broaden payment options for Parx Interactive in US

P

ayments platform Paysafe has partnered with Parx Interactive, a Pennsylvania-based gaming company owned by Greenwood Gaming and Entertainment. This is the first phase of a multi-state partnership, where the Parx Interactive-powered Play Gun Lake online casino and sportsbook for Michigan plug into Paysafe for access to all its payment solutions, whether traditional or alternative.

Play Gun Lake, which is powered by Parx Interactive in alliance with Michigan-based Gun Lake Casino property, offers real-money iGaming options, both for wagers on video slots and casino table games, and also for U.S. and international sports. 

Players who prefer traditional payment methods such as credit or debit cards can now make a contactless and secure online deposit to wager, with the transaction processed by Paysafe payment gateway. Those who prefer to use a digital wallet can select Skrill to make the deposit. Cash-focused players will be able to wager using Paysafe’s paysafecard eCash solution. 

The integration also provides access to other alternative payment methods in the industry. 

Players can also withdraw their winnings, as payouts can be transferred into their bank accounts using their Skrill account, where funds are transferred in real time, or via ACH. 

According to the company´s press release, Gregory Kirstein, Vice President of Business Development for iGaming at Paysafe commented on this new integration with Parx Interactive. 

“We’re strongly focused on providing Parx Interactive’s players with the payment methods that suit their specific preferences and ensuring a frictionless experience for depositing and payouts. Through our comprehensive approach to payments, we look forward to helping Parx Interactive maximize customer acquisition and retention as well as revenue growth in Michigan and other states”. 

Matthew Cullen, Senior Vice President of Interactive at Parx Interactive, also spoke about this new alliance with Paysafe.

“Offering Paysafe’s top payment product through an integration with the Playtech platform will strengthen our offering in Michigan and result in a great user experience, to which we are highly committed. These partnerships are key for Parx Interactive’s national success, and we couldn’t be more excited to roll-out this partnership with Paysafe so close to the time we also launch our sports-betting product”.
