Teaming up with Hollywoodbets allows Octoplay to rapidly scale in one of the most lucrative markets worldwide, while also picking an operator with a proven track record and an established audience.

Commenting on this, Octoplay CEO Ralitsa Georgieva has welcomed the opportunity to see her company expand its reach in the country, with Octoplay entering South Africa as part of an exclusive deal with Hollywoodbets.

The exclusivity period will last for a month before Octoplay begins to pursue other commercial content partnerships locally.

"South Africa is the latest in a long run of market openings for us this year, and the next ones are already underway," Georgieva noted.

"Hollywoodbets continues to bring new and fresh games to its players as its online offering grows. Octoplay’s regular release schedule adds exciting new content, so we’re thrilled to give our players the first opportunity to experience Octoplay’s games, which will be available exclusively on the Hollywoodbets platform," Hollywoodbets Head of Product Wayde Dorkin added, welcoming the opportunity to see his company expand its content library in the market.

For its part, Hollywoodbets has been looking to rapidly scale its list of available partners locally. The studio teamed up with Incentive Games and Tom Horn Gaming, both known for their distinct type of engaging and player-favorite content.
