Agreement with recently established NG Gaming will see imminent launch in the growing Latin American sports betting market

Kambi Group plc, the leading global sports betting supplier, has signed an agreement to provide its premium technology and services to a newly developed sports betting brand in Latin America backed by an experienced private equity firm.

The multi-year partnership will see Kambi support the launch of Olimpo.bet, an online sportsbook owned by NG Gaming, which is a recent addition to one of the leading corporate groups in Latin America.

The Olimpo.bet brand aims to operate in the Latin American region, initially targeting Peru due to its growing market, and will further strengthen Kambi’s position in a region where it already has an established presence in Colombia and Argentina.

Kristian Nylén, CEO and Co-founder, Kambi, said: “This is an important strategic partnership for Kambi as we continue to expand our footprint in Latin America’s growing sports betting market.

“The ambition shown by NG Gaming to be among the leaders in sports betting matches our own, and we are excited at the prospect of Olimpo.bet going live in time for the Copa América.”

An NG Gaming spokesperson said: “We are delighted to partner with Kambi to launch our new disruptive brand. It quickly became clear Kambi was the only partner we could trust to support us with our ambitious time-to-market strategy and future expansion across the South American continent.

“Furthermore, Kambi’s flexible technology, alongside its proven risk management and price differentiation capabilities, will give Olimpo.bet a platform on which to outcompete the market.”

Incentive Games, a leading B2B games provider, is proud to announce that it has been awarded an Ontario Gaming License by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), effective today. This achievement enables the company to offer its portfolio of real-money games to licensed operators and players across the province.

The license underscores the Incentive Games’ commitment to meeting the highest standards of compliance, security, and operational excellence. The rigorous application process demands robust security protocols and comprehensive responsible gaming measures and affirms the company’s readiness to enter one of Canada’s most dynamic iGaming markets.

The North American market is a strategic focus for Incentive Games, and this milestone follows closely on the heels of the company receiving its Provisional Michigan gaming licence from the Michigan Gaming Control Board earlier this month.

Incentive Games will distribute its real-money gaming content in Ontario through Incentive Studios, the company’s dedicated Real-Money Gaming division, ensuring a focused and tailored approach to the market.

“Ontario represents a huge opportunity for us, and securing this license is a proud moment for the whole team,” said John Gordon, Chief Executive Officer at Incentive Games. “It reinforces our dedication to meeting the highest standards while delivering compelling real-money content.
