Court filings detail Playtech’s success-fee payments to Black Cube over Evolution probe

Business

Court filings submitted in New Jersey on 3 November detail payments Playtech made to Black Cube for investigating Evolution, according to Evolution’s submissions. The filings describe a £500,000 fee linked to Evolution losing a gaming licence; Evolution’s claim that total payments exceeded £1.8m has not been confirmed. Playtech has defended the investigation, while Evolution disputes Black Cube’s findings.

The filings expose commercial incentives linked to an investigation that involved a gaming regulator and Evolution’s licence status.
