PhilWeb Corp. has entered into a partnership with Travellers International Hotel Group Inc. to support online gaming operations linked to Newport World Resorts, marking its third such agreement in recent weeks as the company expands its business-to-business (B2B) operations.
In a disclosure to the Philippine Stock Exchange on Monday, April 6th, PhilWeb said it will provide platform technology, system support, gaming content integration, marketing, and operational services for Newport World Resorts’ GSA online gaming platform, NWPRPlay. The agreement remains subject to regulatory approvals.
The platform operates under a Gaming System Administrator (GSA) framework accredited by Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp.(PAGCOR), positioning PhilWeb as a technology and services provider within the regulated online gaming sector.
PhilWeb said the partnership forms part of its strategy to expand its B2B segment. ‘The engagement forms part of the Company’s ongoing initiatives to expand its B2B platform and content initiatives within the regulated online gaming sector,’ it said in the filing. The company added that it ‘will provide platform technology, system support, gaming content integration, marketing and operational services.’
Travellers International, which operates Newport World Resorts in Newport City, Pasay, manages an integrated resort complex comprising hotels, gaming facilities, retail outlets, and entertainment venues.
The agreement is expected to support PhilWeb’s efforts to broaden its platform and content offerings while building recurring revenue streams through service-based operations. The company has been pursuing a shift toward a more scalable model centered on technology and backend support services.
The latest deal adds to a series of recent partnerships secured by PhilWeb as it seeks to strengthen its presence in the Philippines’ regulated online gaming market.
