Argentina is regulating online gambling on a province by province basis, with expectations of licenses to be awarded to Grupo Slots for Buenos Aires City, anticipated to be the largest market within Argentina, in the later part of 2020 which will be followed by the online launch. H2GC estimates the Total Gambling market in Argentina to be worth EUR 352M, however only 7% is currently done online therefore as an emerging market there is significant growth potential in the interactive space as the market adapts to online gambling, driven by regulation and growth of digital penetration. GiG is well placed to capture this market growth with a leading partner in Grupo Slots who already have a regulated online presence with Jugadon.com. 

Grupo Slots has the vision to be the best entertainment and leisure option in the markets it serves and is a customer centric organisation with a focus on responsibility gambling therefore GiG is partnering with not only one of the largest land based operators in the market but one that aligns to its own values and product offering. 

Richard Brown CEO of GiG “I am extremely excited to partner with and onboard Grupo Slots, we see a great potential in the regulated environments within Argentina as that market is in the early transformation from offline to online gambling, and to partner with one of the largest and premier land based operators in the market is great opportunity to showcase our product in the LATAM market while delivering the platform for online gambling transformation for Grupo Slots” 

Juan Ignacio Torres General Manager of Grupo Slots “We are extremely pleased to have reached this agreement with a company like GIG, an international company with extensive experience, which demonstrates a high level of seriousness and excellence in the field of online gaming. On our part, we also contribute 35 years of experience, innovation, infrastructure and knowledge of the Argentine gambling market, currently being one of the few operators with online gaming presence (www.jugadon.com). This agreement complements us and gives us a tool of quality and excellence to continue growing in this market with so much future potential”  

It is anticipated that the license application will be granted in Q4 of 2020 with go live shortly afterwards therefore GiG expects a positive contribution from 2021 onwards.
