PLAY’N GO ONE OF FIRST SLOT SUPPLIERS CERTIFIED IN BUENOS AIRES

Slots provider Play’n GO can now access a substantial new Latin American market, after securing accreditation from the Buenos Aires gambling regulator (LOTBA) in Argentina. 

With a metropolitan population of around 17 million people, Buenos Aires represents a potentially major new market for the company, which is one of the first slot suppliers to received LOTBA accreditation. 

Commenting on the news, Sissel Weitzhandler, chief risk and compliance officer at Play’n GO said: “Our strategy remains to engage in every regulated jurisdiction with diligence and care.The speed at which Argentina is re-regulating is very positive and we are looking forward to supporting our partners as they enter this newly regulated and exciting marketplace.”

While Cristian Acuna, head of sales in Latin America, added: “We know that the eyes of the Latin American region will be watching Buenos Aires closely, but we are confident our wide and varied portfolio of content will resonate strongly with players.”

While there’s no denying that the whole re-regulation process in Argentina is more fragmented and chaotic than most would like, and there’s already been a tax bombshell, Buenos Aires, and other Argentine cities and provinces, represent considerable market potential. After all, the population of Buenos Aires (urban + metro areas) alone is roughly equivalent to that of Sweden and Serbia combined!
