Realex Payments announced today that they have added Boylesports to its
growing portfolio. The deal involves Realex Payments providing payment

Payment processing is key to our business and we see Realex Payments as a
long term partner, who will support our ambitious growth plans by
delivering best of breed technology and service.’’
Commenting on the deal, Realex Payments Founder and CEO Colm Lyon said
“The gaming sector has experienced considerable growth over the past
decade and as a result operators now seek a partnership approach when
implementing a payments solution. The experience we have gained over the
past ten years in this sector has enabled Realex Payments to implement a
solution for Boylesports that is a perfect example of this kind of
collaborative approach working.”
Boylesports is Ireland’s largest independent bookmaker and one of the
fastest growing brands in the betting industry today. Boylesports
offers an award winning online betting service which includes not only a

Realex Payments has gained considerable expertise in the gaming sector,
having worked with a number for large gaming companies over the past ten
years. The Company announced deals with a number of key players in the
sector earlier this year, including 32Red and Cryptologic.
Realex Payments recently celebrated a decade in business and just
recently announced that its subsidiary company, Carapay, was awarded a
Payments Institution licence. Carapay is the first company to be awarded
the licence under the Payment Service Directive, and is an online
payment account or payment instrument. Carapay will launch in early
2011.
