2013 - NetPlay TV Acquires Vernons

NetPlay popular Game Show on TV in 2013 featuring one of Vernons sister brand JackPot247

In November, Sportech sells off Vernons.com to UK-based live TV gaming specialist NetPlay TV for £3 million, handing out the entire brand, its customer database of 367,000 players and other gaming assets. Additionally, the company agrees to contribute £0.1m towards the restructuring and integration costs of NetPlay. Three major reasons catalyse this acquisition: Vernons fame as an established revenue generator in the online casino sphere, which makes it a lucrative business prospect, its operations on the same software platform as NetPlay, which is conducive to a smoother acquisition, and the operations of both parties in Guernsey, which makes running the business easier for NetPlay. It turns out to be a symbiosis like never before where NetPlay plans to monetize the reputation of an epic brand and Vernons, on the other hand, looks forward to leveraging resources to establish and maintain a secure position in the market.
