BETBY is firmly focused on making a splash in Latin America and recently attended the inaugural SBC Latinoamérica Summit. COO Eva Berkova talks about the key takeaways and plans for the region in 2024.

 

From a BETBY perspective, what are some of your key takeaways from the SBC Latinoamerica Summit?

After visiting this exhibition, it has become even more evident to us that Latin America rightly deserves to be a key focus for us, and we look forward to making a concerted effort to capitalise on the excitement this market brings. We already have several big partners here, but the region is very dynamic, and we are firmly convinced that we are going the right way, putting LatAm as one of our key focuses.

At the exhibition we saw genuine interest in our product from delegates who know the workings and nuances of the LatAm landscape, and such are the opportunities in Latin America, we do not want to veer away from the territory and enhance our product portfolio to its passionate sports betting audiences.

With a wide range of operators, affiliates, regulators, and many other industry delegates in attendance, were there any key learnings that will influence your decision making for planning a long-term strategy for any expansion into the region?

For some time now we have been planning to introduce BETBY into the local market with a physical presence, and showcase the power and ingenuity of our products. After visiting the exhibition, our opinion was validated, personal connections and everyday communication are the cultural norm in this region, which really appeals to our company, and not only in business terms.

Constant communication is a key characteristic of the people of this region. Visiting the exhibition reaffirmed our belief that in order to strengthen BETBY’s position here, we need to expand our physical presence in the form of our own LatAm office with a Spanish-speaking team.

The untapped potential of the Latin America market is well-documented, what is it about the market that excites BETBY most?

The LatAm market appeals to us because of its breadth and appetite for sports. In this market, there is also a huge opportunity to promote esports. Esports in LatAm is still a niche that is not very saturated with content and offers, as there is a sustained promotion of traditional sports that are hugely loved in the region like basketball, baseball, and soccer.

The potential of the market is truly enormous, without exaggeration. With our mentality and extensive sportsbook solution, BETBY’s products and ethos weave perfectly into the local fabric – both in terms of our company values and business approach.

How do you go about setting yourself apart from other competitors who are targeting the LatAm region?
For much of the LatAm population, sport is their life, exuding passion and love for their favourite teams and individuals. Many championships and tournaments are held here on a regular basis, which are of interest to local bettors. As BETBY has its own trading department, we can offer odds and markets for these local tournaments. This is one of our many unique selling points that sets our company apart.

Esports in LatAm is becoming increasingly popular, how will your Betby.Games offering cater capitalise on this growth?

The role of esports in LatAm is not that big yet, but it certainly has the potential to be. FIFA and Valorant are generally popular here, and BETBY offers three types of FIFA content in addition to a large esports package, which also includes Valorant.

But the greatest interest is in Betby.Games – BETBY’s own product. An AI-powered sports feed with game mechanics that excludes human interference on the outrights, Betby.Games offers fully localised and customisable leagues and tournaments that includes the Libertadores Cup and South American Cup, which are of particular interest to local bettors.
