KIRON LAUNCHES AFRICAN EXPANSION WITH NEW LOTTO CHANNEL, UK NUMBERS
Kiron Interactive has launched UK Numbers, a lotto draw TV channel designed specifically for African markets which is set to bring huge opportunities for both operators and players.
The established provider has rolled out its all-new, bespoke 24/7 channel which delivers a select mix of market-leading numbers products across the continent.
A world-class, fixed odds, lotto draw channel, UK Numbers features a mix of formats with two distinct products that are expected to make a significant market impact in Africa.
The 49’s live draw will be broadcast twice daily, presented by a team of energetic and well-loved presenters. Globally popular for over 25 years, 49’s presents the chance to land big wins from small stakes with the pick of six balls from a 49-ball format.
Offering the perfect solution to the high demand for such content, 49’s is accompanied by the newer, higher frequency and high-margin 39’s product, which features a draw of fewer numbers every three minutes, 24/7 carefully designed to maximise betting opportunities.
Just like in other international markets, there has been a significant surge in the popularity of low-stakes, high-turnover gaming in Africa. UK Numbers is well-positioned to leverage this growing demand by offering a format that aligns with players’ preferences and actively caters to their needs.
Thanks to Kiron’s extensive local knowledge, its network of partners and established name among African operators and players, UK Numbers and its two draws are set to make their mark among the continent’s diverse markets.
Kiron Co-CEO, Steven Spartinos said: “The launch of our new channel brings exciting news for lottery enthusiasts in Africa. It provides them with the perfect opportunity to win substantial prizes with minimal investments, catering to their preferences.
“With the 49’s draw taking place twice daily and the introduction of the brand new 39’s product occurring every three minutes, players now have an even wider range of options and greater chances of success across various market demographics.
“We have witnessed the tremendous impact that the right 24/7 numbers products can have in other markets, and we are confident that our new channel will replicate that success.”
Organisers say the annual community race drew more than 3,500 spectators, with Botswana Gambling Authority and the Ministry of Sport and Arts involved.
PopOK Gaming has sponsored Botswana’s annual TT Cup Challenge Horse Racing Event, backing the community race as it drew what organisers described as its biggest crowd to date.
The company said this year’s TT Cup Challenge attracted more than 3,500 spectators from neighbouring villages. The event is positioned as a community sports fixture celebrating Botswana’s horse racing tradition.
PopOK Gaming said it worked alongside long-standing partners including the Botswana Gambling Authority and the Ministry of Sport and Arts, and with TT Cup founder Mr. Tymon and other sponsors, to support delivery of the event.
The company also used the event for stakeholder engagement, saying its team met with Mr. Kemorwale, CEO of the Botswana Gambling Authority, and the Hon. Minister of Sport and Arts, Jacob Kelebeng. PopOK Gaming said discussions covered the future of Botswana’s gaming sector, industry development, and opportunities for collaboration.
PopOK Gaming said the sponsorship forms part of its wider strategy to build partnerships in regulated markets while supporting community engagement and responsible industry development.

SpringbokCasino.co.za has launched a July promotion offering players 25 free spins on SpinLogic slot title Seahorse Surge, using coupon code MINIONS. The operator said the offer is valid throughout July on its South Africa-facing site.
The campaign is positioned around a “Minions in the Wild – Nature’s Greatest Helpers” theme, timed to coincide with the release window of a new Minions film. SpringbokCasino’s creative frames the promotion through five animal “archetypes” — meerkats, hyenas, dassies, warthogs and elephants — as analogies for different styles of play.
“Every ecosystem needs its helpers, and every winning session needs the right mix of patience, timing, and a little bit of glorious chaos,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino. “This July, we celebrate South Africa’s wildest ‘Minions’—and give our players 25 free spins to cause some fun trouble of their own.”
SpringbokCasino described Seahorse Surge as featuring “cascading wins and rising multipliers.”
