The acquisition was finalized after the Golden Matrix board and shareholders approved the purchase at a special meeting last month. Leadership at the gaming technology company says they believe the acquisition will create a synergy between both businesses and lead to two dynamic casino and sports betting platforms that enjoy a global presence in 17 countries across four continents.
MeridianBet enjoyed successful growth in 2023, and its recent full-year results showed increased revenue of 24% in a year-on-year comparison.
