SportPesa add new games with an Incentive deal
Games Provider integrates two titles with sports betting giant to help the operator drive
player acquisition and retention in Africa.
Incentive Games, the provider of engaging sports betting games, has joined forces with operator giant SportPesa to deliver a suite of Pay to Play titles that will help the sports betting brand service their clients that still use feature phones and appreciate efficient bandwidth usage.
Under the deal, Incentive Games will integrate its V-League and Penalty Kick titles into the operator’s platform. The former is a virtual football game with seasons that run all day every day with virtual matches open for bets every two minutes.
Penalty Kick is a virtual sports title where players must correctly predict where they think the ball will go and then decide how much they want to bet on their placement. The low-volatility, instant win format has been designed to appeal to sports fans looking for immediate returns.
All of Incentive’s titles use lightweight animation so that they can run seamlessly on all smartphones, including Opera Mini Extreme, while also delivering the suspense and excitement that ensure players come back for more time and again.
V-League and Penalty Kick will be made available to SportPesa players in markets globally.
John Gordon, CEO of Incentive Games, said: “We are extremely proud that our content is now available across the globe and as a result we can work more strategically to identify the key partners that will help drive our business forward. SportPesa fall into this category and we are looking forward to working closely with them.”
Adam Beighton, Director at SportPesa, said: “We are always looking for products that add value to our already large selection of games. These games cater to an online player segment that is often overlooked. We were particularly impressed by how the games have been developed to be seamless on smartphone devices that run on Opera Mini, a popular operating system in core markets such as Africa and Latin America. We look forward to seeing players engage with these games for the first time.”
