Stan James prepares to launch in South Africa
Bookmaker partners with GTECH G2 to use its Margin Maker World Till sportsbook operating system.
Stan James has signed an agreement with GTECH G2 to use its Margin Maker World Till system for the bookmaker’s retail launch in South Africa.
World Till is GTECH G2’s retail cash betting solution designed for use in markets where, according to the supplier, a simple, cost effective and secure solution is required. It supports fixed odds, pools and spreadbetting on any sports, across all channels and all business models, and has been deployed across the world in countries such as Spain, Romania and Venezuela.
The two organisations today said they had worked together to have the system certified to operate in Western Province, South Africa. Stan James will initially launch it in five shops in Cape Town with plans for further openings over the course of this year and the potential for 100 shops across the estate.
Mark Tipping, managing director of Stan James Betting said: “South Africa is the latest venture in our overall business development plans. Working with GTECH G2 and the Margin Maker system ensures that wherever we are in the world, we have a market leading operating system, which allows us to offer our customers a great betting experience.”
Paul Mears, GTECH G2 vice president of sports betting said: “For GTECH G2, working with clients like Stan James across the globe is a fantastic opportunity for us to increase our global footprint.”
