With the absence of real, live sport to bet on due to the global COVID-19 lockdown, digital sports betting is taking the world by storm! The popularity can also be rooted to the massive growth of interactive sports games such as FIFA by EA Sports, and PRO Evolution by KONAMI. Sports betting operators are always on a mission to improve their product offering to customers, and digital sports betting seems to be the key to a diverse and exciting sportsbook product.

Digital sports betting has the potential to contribute big!
As it quickly becomes the next best thing in gaming and entertainment, digital sports betting is also a potentially massive contributor to the overall revenue generated by the industry. To demonstrate this potential, Casey Research cite that when Greece introduced digital sports betting in 2017, the opening twelve months saw betting consumers in the country stake a total of $600 million. Now for a population of only 11 million people, one can only imagine what the world is in-store!

JIKA Sports brings world class digital sports betting to South Africa!
Powered by KIRON Gaming, JIKA Sports has launched its product offering of Digital Soccer and Digital Horse Racing to the South African market.

The realism of the games grab attention from the start! The games are even covered by an enthusiastic real-life commentator who certainly adds to the thrill and excitement of the event.

JIKA Soccer
