TVBET Is Now Available via Satellite
The leading software provider of versatile TV games, TVBET, has added a new product vertical to their solutions that solves the problem of distributing live games to regions with poor Internet connections. TVBET Satellite solutions now make it feasible to provide land-based customers with top-notch content for gaming audiences.
The TVBET team offers its customizable solutions for operators worldwide, including web, mobile and retail platforms. The new offering TVBET Satellite is aimed at land-based casinos and betting shops and will be especially relevant for regions where the Internet connection is feeble. The access via satellite is a breakthrough for both the provider and land-based. This solution will diversify the client’s game portfolio and engage offline card and lottery fans with its uniqueness, beautiful high-quality picture, and a new option for making bets.
A standard piece of connection equipment and a decoder are the basic requirements for receiving a satellite signal by a land-based point. TVBET fully accompanies the connection process and will also advise in detail the exact needs if difficulties suddenly arise.
How Does It work?
Players of the betting shops can come and place bets on TVBET games’ outcomes in communication with the cashier. The cashier has the standard software offered by TVBET installed on the PC. The satellite provides fast signal transmission and maintains picture quality, so games are functioned in real-time. Players can watch the game and place bets here and now, without signal delays, ensuring fair play and winnings.
Thanks to the afore-mentioned solution, TVBET has currently launched games such as 7Bet and WheelBet in rotation on one screen. Land-based bookmakers can now add any other TVBET game or launch separate channels with specific settings that they need upon request. So this service is adaptive, and details can be customized. Several partners are already using the solution by TVBET.
Which Regions May Already Take Advantage of the Service?
At the moment, TVBET Satellite covers the following regions: Mauritania, Mali, Niger, Chad, Kenya, Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, Cameroon, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo, Ghana, Gabon, Senegal, Guinea, Côte D’Ivoire, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Central African Republic, Tanzania, Algeria, Libya, Sudan, Ethiopia, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Botswana, Mozambique, and South Africa. Satellite coverage can be expanded to other continents and regions upon request.
Subsequently, TVBET via satellite solves the problem of feeble Internet connection and attracts many more players, not only online but offline as well. Moreover, the solution can be adapted to the region and specific needs of the bookmaker or casino. This solution is a significant development that will supplement the games’ range of betting shops and improve their performance.

In his role, Jeacocks will drive growth for Altenar in South Africa, where it already offers its tailored premium data providers, localised sports offering and mobile app aimed at players in the mobile-first market.
John Quaye, CFO at Altenar, said: “We are delighted to welcome Brendon to the team as he builds our on-the-ground presence in South Africa. His expertise in the market will undoubtedly help us achieve strong growth in our first year as a licensed provider in the country.
“He is well-positioned to forge partnerships and help us tailor our product to meet the region’s growing demand for localised sports betting solutions.”
Brendon Jeacocks, Regional Director at Altenar, said: “I’m pleased to be joining Altenar at such an exciting time for the company’s ambitions in Africa. I’m currently based in Cape Town and will serve as the local point of contact for our operations here.
“I look forward to helping to develop Altenar’s presence in South Africa and connecting with the rest of the industry.”
