Interblock have established themselves as one of the leaders in luxury game manufacturing and electronic table game (ETG) development, so their deal with the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp (PAGCOR), the regulator and casino operator, in June 2015 was truly a partnership that benefited both groups. Both sides seem to agree with that assessment, as they have renewed their agreement for the next three years, according to an announcement made on May 16.

It seemed only logical to continue a relationship that has worked well for both. The original deal required Interblock to supply, install, and maintain 192 G5 Diamond play stations that included automated roulette and video baccarat stadiums. By December 2018, the number of seats increased to 204 play stations installed in the 14 casinos operated by PAGCOR.

Explained Interblock’s President of Asia Pacific, Michael Hu:

“The revenue generated from our first installations had increased strongly from month to month through our continuous performance appraisals. It is with great honor that through our partnership with Indepth and PAGCOR and their continued support of our ETG products we have been able to extend the lease agreement for another 3 years, through January of 2019. This is a win-win partnership combination.”
