SIS (Sports Information Services), the leading multi-channel supplier of 24/7 live betting services, has launched its new South African 24/7 Live Betting Channel with sportsbook operator Marshalls World of Sport.

The new 24/7 Live Betting Channel, a tailored solution for the South African market, includes a range of SIS’s market-leading numbers betting products, such as the established, ever popular twice-daily 49’s draw, as well as a new regular 39’s draw – created to provide even more betting opportunities for 49’s customers.

The South African channel also consists of premium greyhound racing, with up to 38,000 events – depending on province – as well as horse racing from around the globe, to ensure profitable short-form content is available throughout the day.

The broad content-based 24/7 service has been delivered to Marshalls as a full end-to-end solution, featuring live streamed pictures, data, commentary, on-screen graphics with betting prompts and a range of markets and prices including SIS Trading Services, which provides betting operators with the most comprehensive range of markets and pricing for live racing covering the entire betting lifecycle of a race.

SIS’s new 24/7 Live Betting Channel is now live within Marshalls’s retail outlets across South Africa, as well as its online operation, and the tailored channel demonstrates SIS’s commitment to provide localised and bespoke products to its operator partners globally, ensuring that bettors worldwide are provided with relevant betting content that meets their needs wherever they are, and at times suited to them.

Joe Andrews, Digital Sales Manager at SIS, said: “It’s an exciting step for us to be partnering with Marshalls to deliver our new South African 24/7 Live Betting Channel, which has been tailored for the South African market and now features our revamped 49’s offering.

“Numbers betting is hugely popular in South Africa, where there is a strong affinity to the 49’s brand, and Marshalls’s customers will enjoy the refreshed 49’s draws and new products that are now on offer. Alongside horse and greyhound racing, Marshalls has a comprehensive live betting channel that will help drive customer engagement across all hours of the day.”

Jeremy Marshall, Owner of Marshalls World of Sport, said: “We have been hugely impressed with SIS’s new 24/7 Live Betting Channel since launching it to our customers and it will no doubt help us to increase engagement and provide incremental revenues.

“Having access to a bespoke channel specifically tailored for the South African market is of huge value to us as a company, with this partnership proving that SIS understands local market needs and requirements perfectly, wherever you are in the world.”

SOFTSWISS, a global tech provider with over 15 years of iGaming expertise, proudly announces the launch of its major South African project with Mzansibet. It marks the first project in the country to utilise both the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook and the SOFTSWISS Casino Platform.

According to the recently released South Africa: iGaming Market Overview 2025 by SOFTSWISS, the country’s iGaming sector is growing at an impressive annual rate of 20–25%, driven by increasing mobile penetration. In line with this trend and evolving player needs, SOFTSWISS strongly focuses on mobile optimisation across its platforms, enabling seamless and enjoyable gaming experiences for Mzansibet players.

The launch in South Africa, ensuring full compliance with local technical standards, required meticulous preparation. SOFTSWISS products – including its sports betting software and online casino platform – underwent rigorous certification with Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), one of the most reputable and globally recognised independent testing laboratories in the iGaming industry. Following this process, the solutions were officially approved for local operation by the Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board – a respected and influential regulator in the region – affirming the high quality and compliance of SOFTSWISS software.

Max Trafimovich, International Non-Executive Director at SOFTSWISS, shares: “Mzansibet entered the market with a bold ambition to become a top-tier brand – and we are not only proud to support that vision from day one, but also well-equipped to ensure its sustainable growth. Leveraging our global and local expertise, we provide the technical, business, and service tools necessary for a smooth launch and scalable development. This is made possible thanks to our robust and stable architecture with 99.999% uptime and a flexible platform ecosystem. In addition, the brand launched a nationwide TV advertising campaign and has already attracted tens of thousands of players across the country – a powerful testament to its growing presence and trust.”

In addition to backend certification, the SOFTSWISS team invested heavily in frontend localisation to align with the partner’s vision and market requirements. The Mzansibet project has been fully adapted to meet South African player behaviour and betting patterns.
