SoftSwiss expands to the African continent
SoftSwiss is excited to announce its official expansion into the African continent. As the company continues extending its global presence, this month SoftSwiss received a license for Nigeria. This is another great milestone for SoftSwiss in entering new regulated markets.
Nigeria is the largest country in Africa, with 200 million inhabitants, whilst also being a gambling country with an extremely developed regulation for sports betting and lotteries. Furthermore, it is also one of the most competitive and fast-developing markets in gambling in Africa. The size of the population and exponentially growing internet exposure create the right conditions for online gambling companies to operate in.
It has to be noted, the African region as a whole is more focused on sports betting rather than online casinos. Now after the official launch of the SoftSwiss Sportsbook, the company is ready to build up its presence in this exciting new region.
Ivan Montik, Founder of SoftSwiss commented on this event: “Entering the Nigerian market marks an exceptional turning point for SoftSwiss, as we’re expanding our global presence to a brand new continent. Nigeria is considered one of the most fast-paced iGaming markets in terms of growth and we cannot wait to begin providing our services there. Nigeria is a great achievement for us and we’re planning on moving even further into other regulated markets” .

Bede Gaming’s Latest Sunbet Expansion Delivers iGaming Platform to Namibia
Launch adds sports, slots and live casino, with integrations including Kambi and Evolution.
Sunbet, the digital gaming arm of Sun International, has launched in Namibia using an “internationally configurable” platform supplied by Bede Gaming. The rollout marks Sunbet’s latest African market expansion with the technology partner.
Bede said the Namibia deployment mirrors Sunbet’s other African markets, covering sports, slots and live casino. The platform includes integrations with Kambi, Evolution, Habenero and Pariplay.
Operationally, Bede said Sunbet will also use its partnership with Xtremepush to access CRM tooling aimed at supporting acquisition and retention.
Bede and Sunbet have worked together since 2017. Bede said that after slot regulation changed in South Africa in 2022, Sunbet expanded its digital product line-up, followed by a Botswana launch in 2024. Bede cited H2 2025 Botswana results of 189% growth in registrations, 239% growth in unique players, and increases of 370% in total wagering and 350% in Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR).
Kirsty Stewart, Chief Legal & Client Success Officer at Bede, said: “It’s been wonderful to continue fostering our ongoing partnership with Sunbet, including the delivery of their two global expansions over these last couple of years. There’s a lot to be proud of within this customer relationship, and we’re looking forward to building on the outstanding performance we’ve witnessed so far. I’m eager to continue offering a strong foundation, exceptional service and powerful integration suite for Sun’s future growth.”
Simon Gregory, Chief Executive Officer at Sunbet, said: “Sun International is a well respected and trusted brand in Africa, so Sunbet’s intention was always to leverage this good will by expanding into other African markets. We experienced significant success after our debut in Botswana, so rolling out Sunbet to the Namibian market was the natural next step for us, especially given that Namibia is one of South Africa’s strongest trading partners.
“We are equally confident that with Bede, we have the right partner to achieve our regional expansion strategy. Their platform offers the digital flexibility and stability we need to efficiently enter new markets while living up to Sunbet’s promise to deliver a high-quality experience for players.
“We look forward to building a strong presence in Namibia and bringing the same trusted Sunbet experience that customers have come to expect across our other markets.”
