Online gaming supplier will be adding products in Buenos Aires city, province.

Microgaming on Monday said several of its customers in the Buenos Aires city and province have secured licenses to offer a full range of online gambling products.

Microgaming noted it was among the first gaming suppliers to enter the Buenos Aires city and province as the two markets opened on December 9.

The Isle of Man-based company said in a statement it is “strengthening its commitment to Latin America,” as it expects more operators it serves will go live in the months ahead.

“We now are set to provide our customers with access to a diverse range of the most popular casino games via a market-compliant solution,” the online content aggregator said.

Microgaming said it initially will provide 49 games to both markets through its aggregation platform, including well-known online slots Immortal Romance, Thunderstruck II and Break Da Bank Again, as well as top-performing recent releases.

Alongside exclusive Microgaming content, customers will gain access to a wide range of popular partner content, the company added.

Microgaming already has an established presence in LATAM, having expanded its portfolio and having forged relationships with customers operating in the region in recent years. Since first entering the Colombian market in 2018, the company said it has continued to focus on regulated markets across LATAM and now has its sights on other newly regulating Argentinian provinces.

“With safer gambling and fair play at our core, we are proud to welcome the new regulations in both the city and province of Buenos Aires,” Hayley Da Silva, head of markets at Microgaming, said in a statement. “We have supported our customers closely with the licensing process in preparation for the markets opening, and we are excited to see them push off from the starting blocks.”

Microgaming says it supplies online gaming operators in markets across the world with access to a portfolio of content from its network of exclusive independent studios, along with top-performing partner games via its aggregation platform. Creator of online casino software in 1994, and home to online slots such as Immortal Romance, Thunderstruck II and Book of Oz, Microgaming offers a branded range that includes Game of Thrones, Jurassic World, and Lara Croft Temples and Tombs.
