BETER, the award-winning supplier of fast-betting content, data, and odds across esports and sports, has expanded its footprint in Latin America through a new partnership with leading Colombian operator Wplay.

As part of the agreement, Wplay will roll out BETER’s exclusive ESportsBattle tournaments, with eFootball and eBasketball set to be the first titles introduced to its players.

The deal strengthens Wplay’s offering by enabling the operator to deliver fast-paced betting experiences that are increasingly in demand among Colombian players, while also helping it stand out in a competitive market.

BETER’s ESportsBattle tournaments feature nearly 500,000 events annually, spanning eFootball, eBasketball, eHockey, and eTennis. Each match offers up to 50 betting markets, with an average operator margin exceeding 7.5%.

Chuck Robinson, CRO at BETER, said: “Latin America is a strategically important market for BETER, and one where we have already made significant strides. This partnership with Wplay in Colombia builds on that progress and further strengthens our position as a must-have provider in the region.

“Wplay is exactly the kind of partner we look for — reputable, trustworthy, and innovative. It understands that player preferences are evolving and that fast-betting content is no longer a nice-to-have, but a must-have for operators looking to engage the next generation of bettors.

“The fact that we are able to strike partnerships with such high-calibre operators is a testament to the quality of our products and solutions, particularly when it comes to integrity and fairness.”

Julio Tamayo from Wplay added: “When it comes to fast-betting content, BETER is the clear market leader, which is why we’ve gone all out to bring its ESportsBattle tournaments to our players.

“One of the standout qualities of BETER’s content is its strong focus on integrity, with a dedicated team ensuring strict adherence to fair play and transparency. This gives us a high level of confidence in offering its content to our players.

“This is an excellent partnership for Wplay, allowing us to further differentiate our offering while providing players with the most in-demand fast-betting experiences.”

The mid-core RPG is set to launch on platforms including the Amazon Appstore, Samsung Galaxy Store, Samsung Instant Play, Xiaomi GetApps, Epic Games Store, and ONE store during Q2 2026.

We don’t just handle updates and marketing; we provide the full infrastructure and services to ensure a game performs at its peak on every platform.”

Flexion lets us expand into those spaces without the typical upfront costs or effort. It is a low-risk way to quickly grow our revenue and player base while Flexion handles the messy technical work.”

Flexion manages the full process of bringing games to alternative distribution channels, offering a combination of proprietary technology and operational services. On average, the company delivers more than 10% in additional revenue for its partners, with a portfolio that includes 35 top-grossing titles, four of which rank in the global top 10.

Its service offering includes full integration and platform management, tailored marketing strategies, technical support with rapid updates, and access to curated store placements. As developers increasingly seek higher margins and diversified revenue streams, Flexion’s model allows studios to unlock additional income without the typical operational burden.

Hero Wars: Alliance is a free-to-play mobile strategy RPG set in the fantasy world of Dominion, where players collect and upgrade heroes, build team synergies, and compete across campaign missions, PvP arenas, and large-scale guild wars.
