Gamesys

The Gamesys Group was founded in 2001 by a small team of eight former Gameplay employees who had been working at the then recently defunct Gameplay Wimbledon office. After nine months of development, Jackpotjoy, their flagship soft-gaming product, was officially launched in April 2002 and the annual pay out of winning bets now exceeds £75 million, equating to 3 winners per second. Since Jackpotjoy's launch, Gamesys has published over 250 white labeled versions of the site for partners such as Lycos, Tiscali, Ryanair and Orange.
