DigiPlus Secures South African Gaming Licenses in Major Global Expansion Move

DigiPlus Interactive Corp., a leading digital entertainment platform, has obtained regulatory approval to operate in South Africa, marking a significant milestone in its international growth strategy.

In a recent disclosure, the company announced it received three licenses from the Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board (WCGRB): a national manufacturer license, a bookmaker license, and a bookmaker premises license. These approvals enable DigiPlus to conduct comprehensive gaming operations in the South African market.

Western Cape is South Africa's largest online gaming hub, accounting for approximately 31% of national revenues in 2025, supported by robust digital infrastructure.

The South African gaming market generated an estimated $4.9 billion in revenues in 2025, positioning it as an attractive destination for international operators like DigiPlus. This expansion follows the company's entry into Brazil, where it aims to launch full commercial operations in the first half of 2026.

Led by tycoon Eusebio Tanco, DigiPlus continues to pursue strategic opportunities in emerging markets, leveraging its digital platform to capitalize on growing global demand for online entertainment services.
