Oddin.gg, one of the industry’s most preferred providers of esports odds feeds, risk management and iFrame solutions, is happy to announce its new cooperation with CBV (Center of Betting Vietnam).

Oddin.gg will provide its iFrame solution to CBV, the sole holder of an esports gambling license as granted by the local authorities in Vietnam, and therefore the first and only legal esports operator in the country for the foreseeable future. This marks the new era for South East Asia as Vietnam will become one of the very few countries where esports betting will be legally allowed. Given the population of 96 million, smartphone penetration of 45% and the fact that 70% of the population has access to the internet, it is no surprise there are already 5 million esports enthusiasts in the country. The esports scene is poised to explode in the upcoming years.

CBV operates under the auspices of AVRCIPL (Association of Research and Consultancy on Policies and Law for Investment in Vietnam). AVRCIPL is responsible for connecting state agencies and private sector corporations, helping the latter to overcome policy and legal challenges for investment activities in Vietnam.

Bang Dang, spokesperson for CBV noted on the new collaboration: “Selecting the best and most reliable solution on the market was crucial for our aim to build the market from the ground up. Out of all the providers we have reviewed, Oddin.gg stood out with their comprehensive end-to-end iFrame solution that was fast to implement and provides us the level of control we were looking for. At the same time we can fully rely on Oddin.gg’s expertise and their guidance in the esports betting waters that are new to us. Given their leading uptime and number of live markets, we are certain we offer our bettors the best esports betting experience there is. We believe we have made the right choice and we are looking forward to the fruitful partnership for the years to come.

Marek Suchar, Managing Director and co-founder of Oddin.gg commented on the new partnership:

“We at Oddin.gg have reached another milestone! Esports in South East Asia has been mainstream for quite some time, where the status of esports pros is comparable to the status of other athletes. Yet, the legal environment for betting has been challenging, leaving opportunities for unregulated space to flourish. Through the partnership with CBV, we aspire to bring to Vietnam highly engaging esports betting alternative that will be regulatory-complaint and guarantee a high level of security for bettors. We hope we can set the right example and precedent for the other countries to follow in the upcoming years.

Oddin.gg is a world-leading B2B provider of iFrame solutions, esports odds feeds and risk management. It delivers the most engaging esports betting experience with industry-leading uptime and number of live markets. Oddin.gg maximizes its partners’ profitability as well by combining state-of-the-art technology, machine learning algorithms and advanced data science. The company features a team with more than 50 years of combined experience in esports and betting, and has successfully done business with the most complex global platforms. Recently, their application for a gaming license was officially accepted by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement.

Saigon-based CBV (Center of Betting Vietnam) is the first legal esports operator in Vietnam and holder of a provisional gambling license in the country. As esports betting in Southeast Asia is booming, CBV is strategically positioned to capitalize on the presented opportunities by putting, under one roof, the most experienced gambling and iGaming teams in the region.

Agilysys Inc., a leading global provider of hospitality technology solutions, announced that Winford Resort & Casino Manila Philippines, has deployed Agilysys InfoGenesis POS to centralize food and beverage operations across 11 venues and integrate in real time with their Total Rewards System (TRS).

Located in Manila’s historic San Lazaro Tourism and Business Park, the 22-story integrated resort features 128 rooms and suites, multiple dining outlets, premium entertainment facilities and a full casino operation. To support this high-volume environment, Winford transitioned from legacy POS systems requiring manual processes to a fully automated platform aligned with the technology standards of Newport World Resorts.

With InfoGenesis POS, dining transactions now connect directly real time to guest loyalty and reward data through seamless TRS integration, improving transaction speed, billing accuracy and operational efficiency while delivering a more streamlined experience for guests and staff.

Since the deployment, Winford staff have noted the intuitive nature of the new system. Key benefits identified during training and initial use include:

• Intuitive Workflows: The system is easy for staff to navigate, significantly reducing training time and minimizing order errors.

• Integrated Rewards: Real-time synchronization with TRS eliminates manual workarounds, allowing guests to earn and redeem rewards effortlessly across the property.

Arman Reyes, Assistant Director of IT at Winford Resort & Casino, said: “Agilysys InfoGenesis POS stood out as the ideal choice for Winford Manila because of its flexibility, seamless integration with our systems, and real-time data insights. We wanted to replace our legacy software with a truly modern solution that is intuitive for our team, scalable for our operations, and agile enough to consistently deliver exceptional guest experiences. InfoGenesis empowers us to achieve greater efficiency and mobility across our property, helping us serve our guests better every day.”

Tony Marshall, Vice President & Managing Director for Agilysys Asia Pacific, said: “We are proud that Winford Resort & Casino Manila chose Agilysys InfoGenesis POS to be the backbone of their dining and retail transactions. InfoGenesis is designed specifically for complex, high-volume environments like Winford, ensuring exceptional performance even during peak times. By integrating POS with the resort’s loyalty ecosystem, the property is now able to deliver a more seamless and rewarding guest experience. This partnership underscores our commitment to providing cutting-edge solutions that drive efficiency and elevate the guest experience in the Asia-Pacific region.”

The implementation of InfoGenesis POS reinforces Winford Resort & Casino’s commitment to investing in best-in-class technology to maintain its position as a leading integrated resort destination and establishes a strong foundation for the future innovation and growth.
