WMS Gaming, a manuacturer of slot machines for land-based casinos, is apparently preparing to expand its interests to include online casinos. According to a report by Casino City Times, the Illinois company has posted ads seeking employees with experience in online gambling operations.
The ads include positions for affiliate manager, creative designer, payments director and risk analyst. The listings specify that the operation will be a UK Internet gaming company, and job positions will be based in London.
WMS has long been a premier manufacturer of hardware for land casinos around the globe. Movement toward online operations may be an attempt to redefine its business to include the potential overshadowing of land gambling by Internet casinos.
WMS may be following the path being set by Harrah's Entertainment, the land-based gaming giant which has begun offshore online casino operations in anticipation of eventual opening of the US market. While neither Harrah's nor WMS has shown any indication of accepting US residents as customers, each may seek an advantageous position when the market conditions change.
Pressure continues to build in the US Congress to regulate online gambling and protect individual rights to choose Internet casino gambling. Several bills have been introduced to oversee and tax online casinos, and both practical and philosophical reasons for regulating the industry are gainging support.
