GoldenRace, líder mundial en deportes virtuales y soluciones de apuestas, y Spinmatic, innovador desarrollador de juegos de casino de alta calidad, celebran cinco años de una exitosa asociación con Playlogiq, una de sus colaboraciones más duraderas.
Desde el 7 de enero de 2021, GoldenRace y Spinmatic han trabajado codo con codo con el equipo de Playlogiq para ofrecer experiencias de juego de primer nivel en todo el mundo. Han sido más de cinco años de objetivos compartidos, sinergia técnica y, lo más importante, resultados inmejorables.
Esta asociación ha sido un motor fundamental para el crecimiento en el continente africano. Al aprovechar la sólida plataforma de Playlogiq y el contenido líder en el sector de GoldenRace y Spinmatic, han logrado proporcionar a los operadores una ventaja competitiva que conecta con los jugadores locales.
Aunque el alcance del acuerdo es amplio, se ha obtenido un éxito excepcional en África Oriental, donde el interés por contenidos de apuestas de alta calidad y ritmo trepidante sigue disparándose. Al centrarnos en las ofertas online y móviles, las compañías han llegado al corazón del mercado africano moderno de las apuestas, donde la accesibilidad y el rendimiento son las claves para alcanzar altos volúmenes de tráfico.
“Nuestra colaboración con Playlogiq siempre ha sido algo más que una simple transacción comercial; se trata de una relación muy sólida y productiva entre dos empresas que comparten el afán por la excelencia. Al ofrecer nuestra gama completa de verticales, Playlogiq ha demostrado ser un socio fundamental en nuestra misión de dominar los mercados clave de África”.
Martin Wachter, director ejecutivo y fundador de GoldenRace.
Uno de los aspectos más destacados de esta colaboración es el compromiso de Playlogiq con la innovación: siempre se encuentran entre los primeros en integrar e implementar los últimos lanzamientos de GoldenRace y Spinmatic, lo que garantiza que sus operadores tengan acceso a una oferta variada y emocionante.
“Trabajar con GoldenRace y Spinmatic desde 2021 nos ha permitido ofrecer constantemente a nuestros operadores el contenido más atractivo del mercado. El tráfico que observamos, especialmente a través de los canales móviles y online, es una prueba de la calidad de los juegos. Hemos visto cómo Spinmatic se ha convertido, con diferencia, en nuestra línea de productos más exitosa, con la serie Sizzling Blaze generando una increíble participación en todos los ámbitos”.
Baha Yahya, director ejecutivo de Playlogiq.
La línea de productos Spinmatic se ha erigido como la campeona indiscutible de esta asociación. Es, con diferencia, la línea de productos más exitosa que se ofrece a Playlogiq.
Aunque los slots de Spinmatic lideran actualmente la oferta, los deportes virtuales de GoldenRace siguen siendo un pilar fundamental de la oferta de Playlogiq. Proporcionan una fuente de ingresos constante y fiable, y son especialmente apreciados por los entusiastas de las apuestas deportivas.
Lo que hace que esta colaboración sea realmente especial no es solo el GGR o las estadísticas de tráfico, sino la sólida relación entre las empresas, las cuales hablan el mismo idioma en lo que respecta a la calidad y a una visión común sobre el futuro del igaming.
