The top distributor for emerging markets bolsters its cross-vertical spread with high-quality esports

QTech Games, the leading distributor for Asia and all emerging markets, has announced its latest key supplier deal with EsportsConstruct, boosting its premium esports offering across a definitive one-stop shop for igaming.

This new partnership makes EsportsConstruct’s full portfolio available to QTech Games clients and their players in developing territories. These stunning video-game events, leagues and championships include: eFootball (courtesy of EA’s hugely popular FIFA 2020), eBasketball (featuring NBA 2K20), eTennis (Tennis World Tour), and the iconic adventure beat ’em up Mortal Kombat.

The fragmented global calendar for live sports has accelerated the rise of esports as a popular betting medium, as worldwide operators pivot the attentions and enthusiasms of their players to relatable esports content which fosters a familiar environment in which casino players, sports bettors and gamers are all happy to participate.

Accordingly, QTech Games and EsportsConstruct have collaborated to optimise the esports experience for traditional bettors with a raft of recognisable titles whose format and betting markets scale in synergy with the head-to-head competition of ball sports or big fights. As a result, QTech’s pioneering platform is helping esports leverage the current moment to truly establish itself as an enduring vertical rather than a short-term spike in revenues.

This ever-evolving production line underscores QTech Games’ diverse domain of gaming verticals, while the partnership also grows EsportsConstruct’s global footprint, opening up margin markets from Asia and Eastern Europe to Latin America, and driving new revenues.

QTech Games CCO, Ulf Norder, said: “It’s rewarding to team up with EsportsConstruct, whose brand shares our own core values around premium content and innovation. Whatever the state of play, the QTech platform is committed to identifying player demand and delivering it, via a game lobby whose machine learning techniques speak straight to wide-ranging markets and varied player preference.

“Esports, virtuals and Augmented Reality represent the next frontier for igaming – and this period of adaptation is now fast-tracking that process for esports which is here to stay. QTech are again leading the way forward in growth markets with an array of breakthrough deals.”

Dan Gibas, CCO of EsportsConstruct, said: “As part of the wider entertainment industry, operators are learning to adapt their offerings to accommodate changing appetites.

“As strategies shift, our esports portfolio is winning the day, realising the vertical’s potential by either engaging dormant sports audiences or cross-selling casino players with an organic diversion of attention. QTech Games’ expansive platform was naturally the perfect vehicle with which to distribute our content across emerging markets, particularly on mobile.”

Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.

The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.

The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.

Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.

“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.

“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”

Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
