An Island e-gaming company is closing its doors tomorrow (Thursday) after 15 years, with the loss of 11 jobs.
Betinternet, based in Nelson Street in Douglas, says it’s closing its fixed-odds betting and games business to focus on its activities in the American market.
Betinternet has vowed to repay all outstanding client balances.
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly says despite the closure, the sector is still growing:
