Evolution Gaming, leading provider of Live Casino solutions, has announced that it has secured its National Manufacturer licence from the Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board (WCGRB). This means that Evolution now has approval to deliver its products and that of its recently acquired subsidiary, Ezugi, to all licensed gaming operators in South Africa.

Martin Carlesund, Group CEO at Evolution, said: “We are delighted to have received this licence and look forward to opening up our world-leading live dealer games portfolio to operators and players in South Africa. Thanks in large part to the great experience already gained in this market by our Ezugi subsidiary, we are entering a really exciting new vertical in this region. Our world-leading live dealer solutions, and new live event betting solutions too, will be available not only on desktop, tablet and smartphone but also in retail betting shops.”

Kfir Kugler, CEO and founder of Ezugi, commented: “There is long-term potential in the regulated South African market to deliver Evolution-powered live dealer games and fixed odds solutions to operators and to bring players the most entertaining live games and live Game Show games available in the world, alongside exciting new betting products.”
