Scientific Games Joint Venture Kicks Off National Sports Betting Program In Turkey, One Of World's Largest Sports MarketsReading Time: 3 minutes

 

Company’s Sports Solution Focused on Maximizing Sales and Profits Returned to the Turkish Government

Scientific Games Corporation announced that its joint venture has successfully launched the exclusive national sports betting program in Turkey, one of the world’s largest state-sponsored fixed odds sports betting markets. The Company also announced earlier this week that it was selected to provide its world-leading products and technology for the Turkish National Lottery in the nation of more than 80 million.

With focus on maximizing sales and profits returned to the Turkish government, Scientific Games’ full turnkey sports betting solution is now live across its exclusive retail sports operation and through the companies licensed to provide interactive sports betting. The Company’s world-leading central gaming systems technology launched with nearly 5,000 WAVE™ retail betting terminals and six virtual live betting sites licensed to provide interactive sports betting. The retail and digital sports betting solutions are fully traded by Scientific Games through its OpenSports™ managed trading services.

The joint venture, named Şans Girişim, was awarded the 10-year exclusive sports betting IDDAA concession in Turkey in March 2019. Along with Scientific Games, the lead partner in the joint venture is Şans Dijital, an affiliate of Demirören Holding, which is one of Turkey’s largest companies with significant business interests in energy, real estate and media.

Barry Cottle, Scientific Games CEO, said, “The excitement surrounding our joint venture’s win of the 10-year sports betting concession in Turkey, followed by a successful launch on schedule is everything we have been working toward the last several years. Leveraging the unique combined strength of our  Lottery and Digital teams, we have developed a market-leading, fully-integrated sports betting solution, and we are honored to be selected by Şans Dijital and the Government of Turkey to maximize profits through our sports betting program in one of the world’s largest markets.”

Demirören Holding previously commented that after evaluating many of the leading companies in the global sports betting industry, it selected Scientific Games as its joint venture partner based on Scientific Games’ proven track record in driving sales and profits for state-sponsored sports betting, and the Company’s advanced, technology-based sports solution and risk management services.

Sinan Oktay, Board Member of Şans Dijital, said, “We are celebrating the national launch of our retail and interactive sports betting program in Turkey. Our teams have collaborated very well on this important project. We value Scientific Games’ commitment to maximizing returns to the Turkish government, and we look forward to our long-term partnership with one of the world’s best gaming entertainment companies.”

Scientific Games is an operator or supplier in 35 sports betting markets, and provided the first full-scale sports betting offering in the U.S. in Delaware following the U.S. Supreme Court’s PASPA ruling. This success was followed by contracts to provide sports betting solutions in Indiana, Iowa, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.  The Company is the first associate member of the Global Lottery Monitoring System (GLMS), an organization that protects the integrity of sports competition and sports betting worldwide. Scientific Games is one the first suppliers to receive certification from the World Lottery Association as a responsible gaming supplier.

Reading Time: 2 minutes

SPAYZ.io, a global payment service provider has expanded its payment network to four new countries across Asia, Africa and the Middle East, with new payment integrations in Turkey, Egypt, South Africa, and Tanzania.

Merchants in Turkey can access Havale bank for pay-in and payout transactions. In Egypt and Tanzania, SPAYZ.io has introduced Mobile Money solutions, supporting the growing demand for mobile-first financial services. Finally, in South Africa, the company has rolled out EFT bank transfer capabilities, providing a reliable and widely adopted payment method for local and international merchants.

Looking to Q4 2025, SPAYZ.io will be launching services in the United Arab Emirates and Singapore. In the UAE, merchants will soon be able to utilize bank transfer options for both pay-in and payout transactions, supporting the region’s dynamic and digitally driven economy. In Singapore, SPAYZ.io will offer PayNow for pay-ins and bank transfers for payouts, aligning with the country’s advanced financial infrastructure and consumer preferences for fast, secure digital payments.

SPAYZ.io will be exhibiting at SIGMA Rome to discuss its current and future payment solutions, including these new launches, as it plans for a host of new announcements in the coming months. Partners, merchants, and industry leaders can visit Booth 6007 at Fiera di Roma from 3rd to 6th November 2025, to find out more and discuss opportunities for collaboration.

Tatjana Meluskane, Chief Commercial Officer, commented: “We’re not just watching the rise of digital payments in Africa, we’re proudly  helping to shape it. These are still cash driven economies, where the potential of digitalisation and online payments has not been realised.

“At SPAYZ.io, our mission is to bridge that gap with infrastructure that’s not only fast and secure, but trusted. What we’re seeing now is a tipping point – mobile-first ecosystems, agent networks, and real-time bank rails are converging to redefine the payments sector. We look forward to discussing with our partners at SIGMA Rome.”

Cubeia, a Sweden-based iGaming software solutions provider, has unveiled the latest addition to its Originals Studio, Turbo Crash – a fast-paced, adrenaline-fuelled game designed to test players’ instincts.

Turbo Crash challenges players to make the ultimate risk-versus-reward decisions in search of astronomical returns. Players place their bets and watch the multiplier soar higher and higher – but timing is everything. It’s possible to cash out at any moment with a single click and every round can be verified for total transparency and trust thanks to its Provably Fair design.

Turbo Crash continues Cubeia’s Originals Studio mission to create operator-first, fully brandable games inspired by its Operator-Up philosophy – built from the ground up around what operators and their players need.

Cubeia’s investment in gamification and community-driven features is reflected in its latest release with challenges, achievements, and duels all available to bring players closer together.

A very successful first year for Cubeia Originals has validated this approach, and with Turbo Crash, the company is setting the pace for what an Originals experience can become as it scales the portfolio further.

Cubeia’s Head of Sales, Caroline Björkman, said: “Launching Turbo Crash as we approach our first anniversary is the perfect way to celebrate how well Originals Studio has established itself in the market. In less than a year, we’ve launched ten distinctive titles – from Mines and Crash to Turbo Crash – and built a portfolio that operators can rely on and players genuinely enjoy.”
