Gaming Innovation Group powers Betway launch in Portugal

Gaming Innovation Group (GiG) has gone live with its second operator partner in Portugal after providing its iGaming platform and sportsbook solution to Betway.

Following an agreement last April, the deal marks the second deployment of GiG’s Sportnco platform with Betway after France.

“I’m proud of the close partnership we’ve developed with Betway, and the product that we’ve helped build with the team for the Portuguese regulated market,” said GiG chief business officer Andrew Cochrane. “Betway are a leading tier 1 operator, and this launch helps affirm our growing position as a market leader in the B2B industry.

“This is a very exciting time to be a part of GiG, as we continue to invest in our product and technology capabilities to underpin further Tier 1 client wins and provide existing clients with ever more compelling product features.”

Betway CEO Anthony Werkman added: “As part of our ambitious growth strategy for Portugal in 2024, this GiG platform will help play a role in expediting our objectives to elevate the sports betting experience for existing Betway customers in Portugal and appealing to new ones.

This agreement will also allow our teams to work in synergy to reach our shared goals and aspirations within the country.”

Shares in Gaming Innovation Group Inc (OSL:GIG) were trading 2.51 per cent lower at NOK29.10 per share in Oslo earlier Wednesday, while shares in Betway parent Super Group Ltd (NYSE:SGHC) closed 4.29 per cent lower at $2.68 in New York Tuesday.
