Planet Sport expands coverage into Canada with French Canadian services
Sports media specialist firm is helping operators, suppliers, and affiliates localise content in the fast-growing Canadian market in Ontario and beyond
Planet Sport, the B2C, and B2B sports media specialist has launched a localized content service for the Canadian market including offering French Canadian translation services as part of efforts to support operators, suppliers, and affiliates looking to leverage the huge potential of the table in Canada.
Planet Sport’s localization and translation services cover all operator, supplier and affiliate needs including the translation of static content. This includes responsible gambling messaging, deposit and withdrawal options, and licensing and explainer guides such as how to bet on sports, casino, and virtual offerings.
Planet Sport now also produces SEO-rich, localized snippets for each sport offered by operators or affiliates such as “We are your home of football betting”, “Tips & odds in Canada” and “Bet now for a $500 sports bonus on your first deposit. Sign up today!”
In addition, operators and affiliates can access SEO-rich news content tailored to the French-Canadian market which again can boost search engine rankings and ensure the operator or affiliate positions itself as the leading destination for sports fans in the market.
All content is tailored to a French-Canadian audience with unique betting terms expertly translated by human translators who are specialists in sports betting and casino, and who are also fluent in the French spoken in Canada.
Planet Sport has launched French Canadian owing to customer demand. Since Ontario opened its doors to legal online gambling back in April, Planet Sport has been inundated with requests from operators, suppliers and affiliates wishing to localise their content.
With more than half a million French Canadian speakers in Ontario and many more in neighboring Quebec, carefully language-localized products and services are considered essential by potential clients.
Andrew Morgan, Head of International Betting Content at Planet Sport, said: “Canada is set to become one of the largest betting markets in the world, especially following the launch of Ontario. But to succeed in such a competitive market, operators, suppliers, and affiliates must carefully localize their offerings.
“Given the prevalence of the French-Canadian language across the country, with more than seven million speakers, translating content accurately and with a real human touch is an absolute must.
“French Canadian is a great addition to our growing translation bureau. We look forward to working with operators, suppliers, and affiliates to help them maximize the huge potential Canada has to offer.”

Merkur Gaming is going to participate in Belgrade Future Gaming 2025. On May 27 and 28, the German gaming giant will showcase its innovative and attractive product portfolio for the Balkan gaming market at the Belgrade Fair, Hall 4, Booth C1.
“Although regulatory conditions in the Balkans – as in many other parts of the world – have evolved in an extremely challenging manner over the past few years, the region remains one of our most important markets. Our continued presence at trade fairs like Belgrade Future Gaming, despite these challenging regulatory conditions, underscores our confidence and optimism regarding the future of gaming in the Balkans,” said Athanasios “Sakis” Isaakidis, Chief Executive International at Merkur Gaming.
To cater to the specific preferences of customers and players in the region, Merkur Gaming is bringing a tailored portfolio to the Serbian capital. Among the highlights is the company’s proven multi-game package, Merkur Prime, which impresses with a modern menu interface and an enhanced player experience. Merkur Prime also features additional game titles, new harmonised sound effects and optimised win animations, delivering an even more immersive gaming experience. Another standout attraction on the exhibition floor will be the Game Ring platform by Reel Time Gaming, which enjoys immense popularity across the Balkans. The latest version of this multi-game platform will be showcased on the Mod Ex cabinet, featuring Reel Time Gaming’s newest and most popular titles.
As in almost every other gaming market worldwide, Linked Progressive Jackpot systems are extremely popular in the Balkans. A true highlight this year: Clash Link. This system stands out primarily due to its unique jackpot mechanics and the exceptionally high frequency of diverse features, delivering an extra dose of thrill to players while keeping the action level at its peak almost continuously. Equally set to make waves is Link Overdrive. This innovative Linked Progressive Jackpot system promises a first-class gaming experience, featuring the ever-popular Hold ‘n Spin mechanic, enticing free spins with additional reels and the spectacular Big Reel feature. Already well-known yet just as captivating as the latest additions to the portfolio is the popular Five Jackpot Respin feature. It transports players into vast and opulent pyramids, immersing them in the mysteries of ancient Egypt as they chase extraordinary winnings.
“The anticipation for Belgrade Future Gaming is immense. A significant number of our Eastern European customers will be in attendance, giving them the opportunity to experience our modern, high-quality product portfolio firsthand. Engaging in direct and personal exchanges with our partners during the show is a truly valuable experience for us and our business, year after year,” said Borivoje Rajšić, Sales Director at Merkur Gaming Serbia.
