Premier Bet has become AS Monaco’s first official regional partner in Africa, enabling the Monegasque club, which also has regional partners in Russia and Asia, to strengthen its international presence. Through this collaboration, Premier Bet, which will benefit from visibility in Africa via the virtual LED technology of the Stade Louis-II during AS Monaco’s Ligue 1 matches Uber Eats, is strengthening its ambition to become the first operator in the iGaming sector in Africa within the next five years.
A common history between AS Monaco and Africa
Today, Premier Bet trades in eighteen markets, has millions of customers across its online platforms and strong plans for extending its presence into other African markets. It’s leading payment technology infrastructure ensures 120+ payment integration points whilst the support of a 2,500+ strong retail footprint and 90,000 kiosks gives it incomparable presence and credibility.
AS Monaco has long been a champion of giving young African footballers the dream of playing in one of Europe’s elite leagues and developing them into future stars of the game. From the early days of giving Ballon d’or winner George Weah his break in Europe to their current star, Krépin Diatta, Monaco, like Premier Bet, are firmly invested in Africa.
