BetVictor to Rebrand and Redesign Online Casino
The online casino BetVictor just announced it was redesigning and rebranding their website to improve site usability. The new design will be more intuitive and easier to use than it is now. It is easy to use now, but not visually dynamic.
This is exciting news for UK online gamers because BetVictor has always been a major player for them and for many gamblers living in other countries.
In January, BetVictor made important changes in its staffing mix. They hired five new people. They and their new positions are:
Germon Knopp started as Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Emma Tomkins was appointed Head of Casino and Poker. Tomkins has previously worked for other large online casinos, including 888 and bwin.party. Kris Marshall was hired as Head of BI and Analytics. She has previously worked for Gala Coral and 32Red. Nyna Solanka has a lot of legal experience, and now is Head of Legal. Shane Stafford was hired as the new Head of Brand and Creative. He was mostly recently Creative Director for Paddy Power. Sarah Wood was promoted from within to Head of Compliance. She started her career with Gala Interactive.
BetVictor’s CEO, Andreas Meinrad, said 2015 was an excellent year for the online casino and he expected 2016 to be even better with the addition of this new talent.
Unlike most online casinos, BetVictor has a long history. In 1946 William Chandler started a bookmaking business. He passed it on to his son, and from there it went to his son, Victor Chandler. In 1998 he moved it Gibraltar to avoid gambling taxes in the United Kingdom. It’s been called Victor Chandler International Limited and VC Bet, but the most recent name change was in May 2014 when the new owner Michael Tabor changed it to BetVictor. The company initially offered online sports betting, then expanded into the casino and poker. It is a member of the Gibraltar Betting and Gaming Association. It is licensed in Great Britain by the Gambling Commission.
They offer casinos gaming, bingo, a mobile gaming platform and a lottery. You can use either the online Flash version of their software or the downloadable package, which provides a more realistic, intense gaming experience.
BetVictor offers a welcome bonus to new players. When you make your first deposit, they match it 200 percent up to 200 pounds or euros or Canadian dollars. That is, if you deposit 100 pounds or euros or Canadian dollars, they match it 200 percent, adding 200 to your balance, for a total of 300 in your account balance to play with. Plus, you get 15 free spins.
