This follows LulaBet’s successful launch in South Africa, as The Unit continues to build its reputation across the globe

28th June 2023 – The Unit, the leader in nearshore product development and marketing for sports betting and igaming, is continuing in its role as marketing services supplier for LulaBet following the operator’s successful launch in South Africa.

LulaBet launched last September after The Unit came on board, bringing extensive experience of providing strategic marketing expertise gained across several years in sports betting and casino. The Unit has provided this service to LulaBet with a particular focus on paid search and paid social.

Based in Cape Town, LulaBet was set up by an experienced team of industry experts and has rapidly become one of the leading online sports betting and casino operators in South Africa, combining customer insight and technology to provide a rewarding and engaging experience.

Through this partnership, The Unit has showcased its ability to provide its world-class services in geographic locations across the world, launching and growing paid search and paid social marketing channels for a start-up in the sports betting space.

The Unit’s experienced industry professionals provide expertise for each partner’s marketing roadmap. From strategic marketing to budgets and planning, The Unit can help partners launch their sportsbook/casino into new markets or improve marketing channels that are currently underperforming.

The marketing team is made up of consultants with strong practical backgrounds, having worked on the operator side for many years, which means they understand the issues partners face both on a strategic and day-to-day level.

After assisting with LulaBet’s launch and identifying the strengths of a start-up business, The Unit will work with LulaBet on further plans to expand in the South African market, with a second wave of growth expected as more product features are added by the LulaBet team.

Paddy Casey, Co-Founder at The Unit, said: “I am delighted to continue working with LulaBet following an enjoyable and successful first year of our partnership. LulaBet has proved it can gain cut-through in the South African market in a short space of time, and the experience brought into the project from both sides has led to a fruitful collaboration. I am excited to see how our marketing expertise can help them take their brand to the next level.

“We have built our reputation globally since launching five years ago, and our success in helping grow a start-up like LulaBet is further proof of how we can help businesses across several jurisdictions. I look forward to providing our services in more markets as we continue to showcase our abilities.”

Iain Gutteridge, Managing Director at LulaBet, said: “We wanted to work with an agency who had extensive sports betting experience. We chose The Unit because the team there has experience from the operator side which made our communication with them fast and direct. We are a team of experienced betting professionals who operate at a fast pace, so The Unit were a great fit with our culture.”

Calvia added: “Launching a brand like Jogabets isn’t just about going live — it’s about getting the fundamentals right from day one. The early performance and positive feedback from the Jogabets team confirm that when product, technology, and delivery are fully aligned, even complex migrations feel seamless.

Springbok Casino Presents “Wild Galaxy Month” with 25 Free Spins on Prosperity Pots

This May, SpringbokCasino.co.za celebrates Star Wars Day with Wild Galaxy Month, a cosmic new feature reimagining the savanna’s creatures as space-faring legends. May the 4th be with you and your 25 Free Spins on Prosperity Pots slot, available all month.

In Wild Galaxy Month, Springbok Casino compares five famous character types from the classic space-opera world to South African animals that carry the same energy in the bush. From bold young lions to wise old tortoises, each one brings its own style to survival—and the same is true for smart slot play. Knowing when to take a risk like a lion, when to wait like a leopard, or when to play the long game like a tortoise can make all the difference between a quick spin and a legendary win!

Lucky Skywalker and the young lion Yedi – Destiny favours the brave, but instinct separates the hero from the herd.

Dark Spots the leopard and the power of the hunt – True power is silent, focused, and impossible to read until it strikes.

Han So-low the meerkat and the art of looking confident – Confidence is half the battle—the other half is knowing when to duck.

Princess Lay-a the springbok and grace under pressure – Elegance under fire is a weapon sharper than any blaster.

Yodust the tortoise and the wisdom of slow power – Patience wins the longest war. The strongest moves are the slowest.

“Out here in the wild, legends don’t begin with dramatic music and perfect timing. They begin with instinct, chaos, close calls, and a little bit of luck. This May, we’re giving our players all four—plus 25 free spins on Prosperity Pots. May the wild be with you,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino.

Prosperity Pots: Lucky Coins from RTG transports players to a vibrant, golden-hued world of oriental charm, featuring 25 paylines, Wilds, Scatters and a random Lucky Coin Feature that unlocks multipliers or instant cash prizes.
