Salsa to present award-winning tech solutions for Latam’s regulated markets at SBC Summit Latinoamérica
Salsa Technology is heading to SBC Summit Latinoamérica where it will be available to present its solutions that are already active and producing results in the regulated Brazilian market. The special event is being held between October 29th and October 31st at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and is a must for those companies seeking to expand their reach in the region.
An integral part of Salsa’s LatAm-focused solutions is the innovative Salsa Omni (PAM) platform, certified by GLI. With its robust and comprehensive back office, it provides an unmatched level of autonomy for operators in the market. Customisable, flexible, and scalable, Salsa’s PAM has been shaped by years of experience in Brazil and Latin America to establish it as the leading iGaming platform for regulated markets in Latam, particularly in Brazil. Salsa was one of the few companies to successfully complete all tests of its platform with Cogel (Coordination of Lotteries of the Ministry of Finance).
Peru will also be a key topic as Salsa and other industry players have been developing strategies to expand into the country with the certifications required by the regulator, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR). Peru’s gaming market is projected to grow at an annual rate (CAGR) of 9% from 2023 to 2031.
Salsa Technology Founder Peter Nolte, commented: “Our Salsa Omni platform is GLI certified and features a tier-one portfolio of solutions, including the integration with First – Best in Sports. It also includes seamless access to a huge selection of games via the Salsa Gator that continues to be enhanced in adherence to regulatory demands. We’ve been Brazil-ready for years and we were one of the initial platforms to launch in the country with NossaBet in Paraná, while also the first to offer games within the country’s most stringent regulations.”
