(Nasdaq: NGMS) (“NeoGames” or the “Company”), a technology-driven provider of end-to-end iLottery and iGaming solutions, announced today that its subsidiary Pariplay has expanded in South Africa following a key strategic partnership with SunBet.
The agreement will see the tier-one African operator supplied with certified content from both the proprietary Wizard Games brand, as well as 3rd party content from the Fusion platform.

Tsachi Maimon, President at NeoGames, said: “Sun International is one of the most well-known casino brands in the African continent, offering incredible land-based as well as online play – through SunBet – for its customers.
“We’re delighted to partner with them to bring not only Fusion aggregation content but also home-grown Wizard Games products to further elevate their players’ array of choice on an interesting and fast-growing regulated market.”
