BetSIGA will replace the PlayNow platform, which the Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority has been operating for four years
The Saskatchewan Indian Gaming Authority (SIGA) has selected Bede Gaming to power its new BetSIGA online betting and gaming platform.
Set to be launched next Spring, BetSIGA will replace the existing PlayNow platform, which SIGA has operated as the province’s only legal iGaming platform since November 2022.
“BetSIGA is an important next step in SIGA’s long-term digital gaming strategy,” said SIGA president & CEO Zane Hansen. “This will be our own platform, built with a partner that shares our commitment to safe, responsible and engaging play, and it will continue to share success with revenue distributed to support First Nation communities and Saskatchewan.”
Players will be migrated to the new BetSIGA site to enjoy an enhanced digital experience, which will be customized to its Saskatchewan player base.
“This partnership extends far beyond technology implementation,” said Bede Gaming CEO Colin Cole-Johnson. “It represents a significant opportunity to combine trusted technology, deep sector expertise and true operational collaboration. SIGA has a clear and ambitious vision for the future of gaming in Saskatchewan, and we are proud to support the team in building a connected digital ecosystem that will deliver exceptional player experiences and sustainable long-term value.”
SIGA also operates seven land-based casinos throughout Saskatchewan, located in North of Carlyle, South of Saskatoon, North Battleford, Lloydminster, Swift Current, Prince Albert and Yorkton.
