Betby, an innovative sports betting provider, has expanded its footprint in Latin America by going live with the Fun88 brand in a new long-term partnership.

One of Asia’s leading betting and gaming sites, earlier this year Fun88 solidified its ties with Premier League football club Newcastle United as the club’s official Asian betting partner for the 2023/2024 season and beyond.

Fun88 carried out a thorough search for a sportsbook partner that would provide it with the level of freedom required for the operator to innovate and develop unique sports betting experiences in the LatAm landscape.

With a proven track record, Betby’s cutting-edge and flexible technology, coupled with official data feeds and advanced suite of APIs will enable the brand to achieve its differentiation goals. The operator will also be able to leverage its access to the Betby.Games AI-generated content module and feed to drive its growth strategy in the region through unique content.

Betby anticipates that this partnership will contribute substantial satisfactions for both parties in alignment with the regulatory updates stemming from the highly dynamic Latin American region.

Chris Nikolopoulos, COO at Betby, expressed optimism about the partnership, stating: “Fun88 has established itself as a leading brand in the Asian market. With an experienced leadership team, and an ambitious growth strategy, Fun88 has all the ingredients Betby looks for in an operator.

A spokesperson at Fun88 said: “We are excited about our partnership with Betby and look forward to bringing our passion and expertise for sports and betting to the Latin-American market. The overall quality and flexibility of Betby along with their dedicated team support makes us confident in this collaboration.”

At the Peru Gaming Show in June, strategic partners Merkur Gaming and Spintec entered a new chapter in their partnership in Latin America. The two companies signed a distribution agreement for Colombia and Peru, marking an important milestone in their collaboration. Their united presence at the show highlighted the strength of this alliance, which continues to deliver considerable advantages to their already winning cooperation across the region.

Spintec’s debut appearance this year was a highlight of Merkur Gaming stand at Jockey Plaza in Lima. The Slovenian specialist in Electronic Table Games (ETGs) featured an impressive range of products that combined innovation, reliability, and performance.  Their Karma and Charisma product lines were the big showstoppers with their unbeatable combination of innovation and reliability. These products are gaining traction and popularity all over the world for a very good reason: they are fully engaging and attractive to look at, while also being extremely dependable.

And the quality of Spintec’s portfolio is already delivering measurable results in the region. The renowned research company Eilers & Krejcik recognized Spintec as the top-performing ETG supplier in South America in their April 2025 Latin America Game Performance Report. This achievement propels the partnership in Peru and Colombia even further. It not only underlines the seamless integration of Merkur’s powerful regional presence with Spintec’s technological leadership in ETGs but also serves as a testament to the importance of companies’ growing strategic alliance.

“ETGs are a valuable and strategic addition to Merkur’s already robust product portfolio,” said Dominik Raasch, Management Board Member, Merkur Games. “Our partnership with Spintec is built on a shared vision of delivering excellence, innovation, and value to our customers. The joint market presence we are creating in Latin America is only the beginning.”
