Betway Provides Solar Powered Kiosks to 10 Fintech Point of Sale Operators in Lagos
Nigeria’s premium online and gaming brand, Betway, is making a significant impact on the lives of entrepreneurs and small business owners in Lagos. The brand has announced its support for 10 Fintech point of sale (POS) operators in the city with solar powered kiosks to aid their businesses. This is part of the company’s commitment to support small businesses and entrepreneurs in Nigeria.
Understanding the pain that these POS operators go through daily due to the power situation in the country and their lean business capital that makes acquiring a power-generating setup a difficult necessity for most of them, the solar-powered kiosks are equipped with a solar panel and inverter to ensure that the Fintech POS operators have access to reliable and efficient power supply. This will enable them to conduct their transactions with ease and provide an enhanced customer experience. The kiosks are also weatherproof and can withstand harsh environmental conditions, making them suitable for use in any location.
Betway has been at the forefront of supporting communities, small businesses, and entrepreneurs in Nigeria. In 2022, the company supported flood-ravaged communities in Bayelsa state with a donation of ₦5,000,000 in food supplies and daily needs products, the distribution of which was coordinated by the Bayelsa State Emergency Management Agency in conjunction with the National Emergency Management Agency. The brand’s CSR initiatives have made a significant impact on the lives of people in these communities.
Otunba Kunle Olamuyiwa, Chief Operations Officer for Betway in Nigeria, said: “We are committed to supporting small businesses and entrepreneurs in Nigeria. Our focus is on empowering these businesses to thrive and contribute to the growth of the economy. The solar-powered kiosks will help these Fintech POS operators to operate more efficiently and serve their customers better.”
Otunba Olamuyiwa further said that many of the POS operators do not have good enough kiosks or shops to do their businesses with lots of them operating under umbrellas and being at the mercy of the weather. He noted that for the beneficiaries of the kiosks, this will be a great upliftment and their businesses will surely thrive better than before.
The Fintech POS operators who have received the solar-powered kiosks expressed their gratitude to Betway for the support. They noted that the kiosks have improved their businesses and enabled them to provide better services to their customers. They also commended the betting company for its commitment to supporting small businesses in Nigeria.
Larry, one of the beneficiaries and a Polytechnic graduate who went into the POS business because he could not secure employment after graduating from the higher institution, said: “I am still in shock, and I have not yet fully realised the fact that I now have a state-of-the-art kiosk to do my business. I saw the video requesting that any POS operator in Lagos who is in need of one should indicate so on Betway’s Twitter handle, and I immediately took the step of faith and asked my friends to support me so I could be selected. I am indeed grateful to Betway for this support.”
Dotun Adepegba, Marketing Manager for Betway in Nigeria said that this initiative is in line with Betway’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts to support the development of small businesses in Nigeria. According to him, the company is committed to making a positive impact in the lives of people in the communities where they operate.
“We did not stop at giving the beneficiaries kiosks to enhance their businesses, we also ensured that they passed through a short financial training program that will allow them run their businesses profitably,” he said.

The Unit, a leader in product design and development for sports betting and iGaming, has announced plans to open a new office in Gibraltar, further expanding its international footprint.
The new location, which will open in Q1 2026, will complement existing offices in Ireland, Moldova, and the U.S., reflecting The Unit’s continuing growth and commitment to supporting its clients across multiple regions.
The Gibraltar office will serve as a regional base for product strategy, management, and design, as well as a hub for commercial engagement with both new and existing partners.
Gibraltar is one of the world’s most established gaming jurisdictions and home to a significant number of global sportsbook and casino operators. Strategically, the move coalesces many convenient synergies and economies of scale for The Unit, since it already serves multiple clients in Gibraltar, while the wider local talent pool will provide an ideal base from which to generate further growth. The Unit’s presence in the Territory will organically strengthen its partnerships and enable greater collaboration with clients across Europe.
Paddy Casey, Co-Founder of The Unit, said: “We’ve experienced exceptional growth over the past two years, and our expansion into Gibraltar is a natural next step. Establishing a dedicated office here allows us to be closer to many of our key partners, build deeper relationships within the local ecosystem, and attract some of the best talent in the business.

Reading Time: < 1 minute
NEOWIZ and Kangwon Land, Inc. signed a new Slot Software Development Agreement, with NEOWIZ’s subsidiary Massive Gaming(MVG) supporting co-development under the partnership.
The agreement marks the next stage in the long-standing partnership between NEOWIZ and Kangwon Land, which began in August 2021.
The initial collaboration mainly focused on resource supply and functional division, but the new agreement expands NEOWIZ’s and MVG’s roles to jointly lead software development using Kangwon Land’s platform and infrastructure. The partners aim to accelerate innovation and strengthen their global competitiveness in the slot gaming market.
Having been formally signed by NEOWIZ and Kangwon Land, the new agreement establishes a development framework in which NEOWIZ and MVG jointly lead the software development process, while Kangwon Land focuses on hardware manufacturing and casino deployment.
This structure enables the three companies to build a tightly connected and efficient co-development ecosystem.
According to the agreement, Kangwon Land will own the offline slot machine software, while NEOWIZ and MVG will hold the intellectual property (IP) rights for the online slot game version.
“We are delighted to take our partnership with Kangwon Land to the next level, built on the deep trust we have established since 2021,” said George Cho, CEO & Director of MVG. “Through our integrated development partnership, we aim to introduce innovative slot content that will be recognised in the global market.”
Since their first collaboration agreement in 2021, NEOWIZ, MVG, and Kangwon Land have continuously expanded their partnership.
In 2022, NEOWIZ and MVG provided graphic and sound resources from their online slot title Shen Shou Wan Fu to Kangwon Land, which officially launched the game as a physical slot machine at its casino in 2024.
