Octoplay has begun its operations in South Africa and its first partnership with one of the country’s leading online operators. The partnership with Hollywoodbets allows Octoplay to retain the exclusive content in South Africa for a period of one month.
With South Africa entering within the long succession of markets opened recently, specifically Michigan where four tier-1 operators have operated concurrently, Spain which has PokerStars active, and Alberta where seven tier-1 operators have been on boarded at once. Hollywoodbets takes on the role of the launch partner in South Africa.
Ralitsa Georgieva, CEO at Octoplay, says:
Entering South Africa with a month of exclusivity through Hollywoodbets gives our games a proper introduction to players in a market we are new to. South Africa is the latest in a long run of market openings for us this year, and the next ones are already underway.
Head of Product at Hollywoodbets, Wayde Dorkin, said:
Hollywoodbets continues to bring new and fresh games to its players as its online offering grows. Octoplay’s regular release schedule adds exciting new content so we’re thrilled to give our players the first opportunity to experience Octoplay’s games, which will be available exclusively on the Hollywoodbets platform.
