History

Kerching was originally part of Million-2-1 and took its first bet in 2007. In 2008, Million-2-1 was acquired by the IGT UK Group for an undisclosed sum.[3] As a result of that deal, Kerching gained full access to the library of IGT slots titles, which it set about developing for the mobile and online casino platforms.

In 2012 IGT Group merged its WagerWorks and Million-2-1 business into a single global division headquartered in San Francisco, California.[4] The new division served customers in regulated, legal markets globally.

In 2014, backed by private equity, the business was purchased from IGT by Kerching Gibraltar Limited. The casino switched from an exclusive IGT catalogue of games to a multi-provider game platform supplied by Nektan.[5] From there on, Nektan offered games from providers such as NetEnt, NextGen Gaming, Aristocrat and NYX Interactive, a move which only boosted its popularity among online gamers. More recently, Kerching has once again expanded its providers after partnering with providers such as Big Time Gaming, Yggdrasil, Microgaming and many more. [6]
