Under the agreement, eight of BetSoft's Slots3 games will be offered on Mr Green's Web site throughout the month.

"Slots3 represents the next evolution in the slot gaming market; true 3-D, cinematic slots which makes for a perfect pairing with the creative next generation site Mr Green operates," said Aliya Alpiyeva, BetSoft’s director of marketing, in a prepared statement.

DEPATURE CONFIRMED Neovia Financial, the online payments provider, has confirmed that Ronald D. Martin, 45, the group's president and chief executive, will officially step down on May 31.

In March, Neovia said Mr. Martin would be departing due to "family reasons" after three intense years as the company leader.

Dale P. Johnson, 63, will assume executive responsibility for the company until a new chief executive is appointed, Neovia said.

Additionally, Neovia said that Dan Starr, executive vice president, and Doug Terry, chief financial officer, will assist Mr. Johnson in day-to-day executive management in addition to their existing roles.

LAUNCHING On Tuesday Pacific Lottery Corporation, Vietnam's online lottery provider, announced that it will be involved in the production and marketing of a televised version of the Hanoi Lottery Draw.

The Calgary company said the Vietnamese Lottery authorities have requested the group's marketing personnel to exclusively assist in the development, launching and ongoing production of this new 30-minute prime-time show airing on state-run television.

Pacific Lottery expects that this nightly TV show will significantly increase its national marketing efforts of Vietnam’s only state-authorized online lottery program, it said in a statement.
