Deal includes the full suite of Global Bet’s omnichannel premium virtual sports

Global Bet Virtual Sports is now live with the tier-one operator Supabets through Intelligent Gaming as part of Supabets Gaming Group’s effort to exploit the region’s fledgling market.

The company has struck a deal for Global Bet to distribute its premium virtual sports products into South Africa. Discussing its goals, Global Bet’s CEO, Daniel Grabher, said: “The aim of the agreement is to replicate the success we have achieved in other major African markets across the continent. The South African gaming market, known for its strict regulations, has a massive potential and is yet to be fully exploited. I’m very confident that our success story will continue in this key market, not least because we teamed up with the right strategic local partner.”

The deal includes the full suite of Global Bet’s omnichannel premium virtual sports and also the brand-new PRO Series of games with features such as instant play that will change the South African gaming ecosystem for years to come.

Commenting on the agreement, Intelligent Gaming CEO, Marc Plaxton-Harrison, said: “Combining our distribution channels within existing operations with the best virtual sports product on the market was a fantastic decision for us. Considering the current boom of virtual sports globally, we anticipate a big revenue growth and a long and successful working partnership.”
