Gaming Realms Enters South Africa via Hollywoodbets

Gaming Realms has burst onto the South African iGaming scene through a powerhouse partnership with top operator Hollywoodbets. Powered by an integration with Light & Wonder, the supplier’s hit Slingo portfolio is now live for Hollywoodbets players. Standouts include Slingo Lucky Larry’s Lobstermania, Slingo Friends, and Slingo Xxxtreme—perfect blends of slots and bingo thrills.

This debut marks Gaming Realms’ first step into Africa. Already thriving in over 30 regulated markets, the company eyes aggressive 2026 expansion, with the continent as a prime target.

“Adding new regulated markets is key to solidifying our spot as a top supplier of fresh, captivating content,” said Gareth Scott, Gaming Realms’ chief commercial officer. “Teaming up with a heavyweight like Hollywoodbets in South Africa sends a clear message. We’re all-in on Africa—it’s packed with potential and fresh audiences to win over.”

Hollywoodbets’ head of product, Wayde Dorkin, echoed the hype: “Gaming Realms delivers something truly one-of-a-kind, and we’re thrilled to pioneer Slingo and their full portfolio for South African players. Their games hook a broad crowd by mixing slot excitement with smart strategy—and early feedback from our customers proves it resonates big time.”

This launch could signal a boom for Slingo-style games in emerging markets. Stay tuned for more on Gaming Realms’ African push!
