EveryMatrix accelerates LatAm growth with Peru market accreditation
EveryMatrix will imminently launch a series of new customers in Peru following regulatory accreditation from the country’s Ministry of Foreign Trade & Tourism (Mincetur).
The tier-1 iGaming technology provider excels in delivering compliant solutions within regulated and emerging markets and is one of the first to be accredited in the country enabling its customers to gain early market share.
Regulatory approval will also further expand its reach across the rapidly growing Latin America market with several new customers due to launch in Peru in the coming months.
EveryMatrix is live in several LatAm markets and is significantly accelerating its regulated growth across the region with a dedicated office opening later this year.
LatAm customers have access to its entire range of proven, modular revenue-generating technology products. This includes online casino and sportsbook platforms, player account management and sports and esports odds/data feeds.
EveryMatrix clients can also select from affiliate management and optimisation software and services, gamification, bonus and loyalty features, localised content and aggregation and bespoke safer gambling tools.
Mincetur has projected that approximately Sol3.8 billion (€1bn) in bets was placed in 2022 with online gaming and sports betting estimated to produce Sol162m (€40.6m) a year for the state.
Bobby Longhurst, Group Chief Commercial Officer, EveryMatrix said: “We’re delighted to be among the first technology providers to be given accreditation so we can instantly power our customers to gain valuable, early market share.
“This is a vital step in further increasing our footprint in LatAm, both as Peru and the wider region continue to regulate. We see huge opportunities across all our product areas including turnkey partnerships that involve multiple EveryMatrix products and services coming together to launch or relaunch operator offerings.
“We’ve proven we can deliver large-scale tier-1 technology projects in Europe and are excited at the prospect of replicating this success in Latin America.
“It’s no secret the LatAm market is gathering speed and we’re determined to be at the forefront of that growth in the months and years ahead.”

Leading gaming law and regulation conference Regulating the Game has announced the newly appointed CEO of Entain Australia and New Zealand as its first Featured Speaker for its March 2026 event in Sydney.
The conference is scheduled to take place from 9 to 11 March 2026 at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth.
Andrew Vouris, who was appointed CEO of Entain Australia and New Zealand in August, brings almost two decades of leadership experience in wagering, operations and innovation at some of Australia’s largest wagering operators.
His career spans senior leadership roles in Tabcorp’s multi-billion dollar wagering and media business, heading global operations of a pioneering esports and wagering platform, and partnering with private equity to build early-stage ventures in esports. Across these roles he has been deeply engaged in navigating complex regulatory and compliance challenges.
Since stepping into the CEO role at Entain Australia and New Zealand, Vouris has outlined his desire to embed a culture of “win, but not at all costs”, to return to the basics of selling bets and to lead innovation while ensuring customers are protected.
“I am grateful for the opportunity to speak at Regulating the Game 2026, which provides a unique global platform for advancing dialogue between regulators, industry and thought leaders,” Vouris said.
“At a time when public expectations and regulatory demands are at an all-time high, I look forward to sharing Entain’s vision for balancing sustainable growth, compliance leadership, and customer protection.”

Arizona Department of Gaming Issues Cease-and-Desists on “Phoenix Dream Home Sweepstakes”
The Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG) issued cease-and-desist orders to Raffall, a company based in the UK, and to an Arizona resident using the platform to promote the “Phoenix Dream Home Sweepstakes,” currently advertised online and through a separate website, winthisazhome.com, which is marketing the chance to “Win a Luxury $1.3M Arizona Mountainside Home”.
According to the Department’s investigation, the promotion required participants to purchase entries for a prize to be awarded and promised either a home transfer or a cash payout, depending on sales volume. The investigation further determined that the organizers intended to profit from ticket sales. Based on these findings, the Department alleges the activity constitutes an illegal gambling operation under Arizona law.
As part of the enforcement action, Raffall has been directed to remove all gambling-related drawings or giveaways targeting Arizona residents, and the Arizona resident has also been ordered to cease promoting or conducting any unlawful gambling activity.
“Illegal gambling can take many forms and it does not matter if it is labeled a sweepstakes, raffle, giveaway, or drawing. Unregulated operations put Arizonans at risk because there is no oversight, and therefore no accountability or safeguards in place. The Department will continue to take enforcement action to protect consumers, and we urge the public to learn what is legal before participating in or hosting any gambling activity,” said Jackie Johnson, Director of the Arizona Department of Gaming.
