SIS (Sports Information Services) has agreed to supply RETAbet Group with its esports betting product, SIS Competitive Gaming, in South America.

The new deal sees Esoccer and Ebasketball head-to-head esports events added to RETAbet’s offerings, as its customers can now watch and wager on live, 24/7 head-to-head competitive gaming events between gamers on NBA2K and FIFA and within RETAbet shops and bars.

“This extension is another important landmark in a region of great potential,” commented Angel Calderon, Head of Sales (LatAm and Iberia) at SIS.

“The popularity of esports is growing consistently among fans and bettors here, and we’re now able to provide our superior market-leading solution to engage with that community.

“Our offering is perfectly placed to complement the short-form, always-on experience that RETAbet customers have with our Live Betting Channels, so we’re confident the reception is going to be strong.”

SIS Competitive Gaming solution provides live streamed pictures, commentary, on-screen graphics with betting triggers, and data, plus pre-match and in-play markets for over 150,000 live events a year.

The new agreement between SIS and RETAbet follows the launch of SIS’ 24/7 Live Horse and Greyhound Channels with the operator earlier this year.

“We’re delighted to build on the fantastic partnership we already have with SIS through which we’ve already seen an increase in betting traffic, so to add the opportunity to replicate that through its Competitive Gaming products is a real boost,” added Igor Extremo, Chief Operating Officer at RETAbet Group.

“The comprehensive and bespoke nature of what we can now offer across Esoccer and Ebasketball is a substantial evolution in an area that continues to gain in popularity and will undoubtedly have a positive effect on revenues and margin.”
