Along with Matrix Partners, WI Harper Group announced a $4 million round of funding Monday for SNS Plus, which brings the total funding for the gaming company to $12.5 million.

"Understanding the cultural differences in all of our markets, and constantly striving to meet the demands of our players is an exceptional advantage for SNS Plus," Along Chang, CEO of SNS Plus, said in a statement.?"We have achieved great growth due to execution of our business strategy and the implementation of our capital markets strategy.
