The North American Sportsbook Expansion Draws Bettors, Operators And Providers To New Thrill Betting… Or Does It?

The North American Sportsbook Expansion Draws Bettors, Operators And Providers To New Thrill Betting… Or Does It?

 

With the growing demand for online gambling, and most importantly, sports betting in the US, it’s no wonder that the likes of sportsbook software provider, Altenar, are receiving vast interest in the North American market.

Given the success that Altenar has achieved in the LatAm market, the growth of sports betting traversing the continent is no shock to experts in the iGaming industry.

The online gambling market is seeing great success within its American industry and with greater access and legalisation of sports betting throughout the country Altenar would be interested in entering the market, as most software providers would be and given the climate was right.

Given the recent ignition of a sports betting new wave, the addition and fast-application of Esports is growing in the region, so much so, that operators in the market are currently having to compete heavily for bettor attention and this is creating an interestingly bullish market.

According to reports illustrated by Bloomberg, current operators in the states are offering risk-free bets that have spurred-on and curated a market where bettors are looking for ‘the next edge’ in sports betting. The worry is that many bettors will eventually site-surf for the best odds, deals and risk-free bets they can find, and eradicate the traditional and term-defining aspect of sports betting and that’s the essence of gambling.

Though, in large, industry professionals believe those promotions will help bring new-generation customers to the sports betting market and so far, it appears to have worked in a mass of states as demonstrated by the map below.

 

What Could Altenar’s Software Do To Address Site-Surfing Bettors?

With the move to online gambling in full-swing, as of 2018, in North America the desire to keep bettors on your website is growing in line with the popularity of iGaming. Countless punters will log on to a site and are drawn to the content they love, sports betting.

If Altenar was able to operate within the region their sports betting software would be the perfect fit for North American operators.

For this reason Altenar’s sportsbook software could be the answer American operators are looking for because it reduces the need for bettors to site-surf and this is thanks to Altenar’s flexible and stable software.

With having access to several data providers, risk management systems and a customisable front-layer, operators are able to tailor their content and sports betting experience to the niche requirements and likes of their customers.

Amongst these reasons, Altenar has become popular within Latin America, because the content they display can be changed through a manual-aspect backend and is available via mobile, desktop and terminal should the region require it.

This flexibility entrenches Altenar’s software and in creating a bespoke experience for operators and customers alike, Altenar is able to create return clientele, who are happy and satisfied with the state-of-the-art content and service they receive.

If you’re looking to understand the scope of the North American market, you can contact Altenar today to request a demo or simply for a chat.

The team behind the sportsbook software provider have an abundance of industry expertise and experience behind them, and this has created thousands of happy customers around the world.

FBM® adds a new hero to its slots collection with Hippo’s Lock™ launch in Mexico

FBM® adds a new hero to its slots collection with Hippo’s Lock™ launch in Mexico

 

Time to power up your spins and collect big wins with Hippo’s Lock™ in Mexico. The new slot adventure launched by FBM® has Super Hippo as a hero, delivering entertaining gaming sessions with the Lock Feature, the Power Spins and Extra Spins accumulators. The game is available to play on the Auria, Galaxy II and Shadow III casino cabinets and is set for a fast expansion in the Mexican gaming market.

Hippo’s Lock is the latest slot title developed by FBM and brings a new theme with a charismatic hero, equipped with gadgets and special powers which will attract and engage slot players in Mexico.

The 30-lines game works with 15 independent reels, and the main action happens around the central position with Super Hippo’s intervention. The purple hippo guides the game narrative, taking players on an exciting gaming journey with non-stop action, suspense, and compelling animations.

 

The “X” effect of Power Spins joins the lucrative Extra Spins

Every time Super Hippo lands on the central reel, he bites the lock symbols and creates the chance to open the bonus mode with Power Spins, Extra Spins or the two accumulators combined.

When the Hippo’s Lock bonus starts with one accumulator, players guarantee five free spins. This number increases to ten free rounds if Super Hippo triggers Power Spins and Extra Spins at the same time. Each one of the accumulators has a special power:

  • Extra Spins – Super Hippo uses its backpack to shoot lasers, increasing the number of free spins displayed in the counter.
  • Power Spins – Super Hippo multiplies all coins, bags, Mini and Minor jackpots by 2, 3 or 5, leading players to a significant prize.

Super Hippo remains in the central position during all bonus rounds, and the special powers of the accumulators activated may repeat several times until the bonus rounds are over.

 

A kit of jackpots and gadgets to achieve big wins!

The bonus ignited by the Lock feature concentrates Super Hippo’s main powers. However, the game character has more tricks and resources to captivate and involve players:

  • Jackpots – Hippo’s Lock offers access to four jackpot levels – Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand – through the vault symbol, which may appear on the reels during the main game or bonus rounds.
  • Rewind – What if a gadget could change the symbols on the reels and lead players to bigger wins? That is the magic of the Rewind Feature activated by Super Hippo using its bracelet.
  • Luck Has Arrived – Super Hippo announces a special flight on the screen with a message and takes off anticipating a lucrative game round for the player.

 

A slot game compatible with several casino cabinets and layouts!

Hippo’s Lock combines a fascinating game mechanic with an appealing feature set exhibited by an intriguing character through cutting-edge graphics, animations, and sound effects. This blend captures the interest of first-time players, delivering enjoyable gaming sessions that encourage them to return for more.

Hippo’s Lock reinforces the Lock product line FBM debuted this year with the Croc’s Lock theme launch. This new game title introduces a new hero, a new accumulator, and new thrills to the gaming sessions delivered by the global gaming brand’s slots portfolio.

Available on the Galaxy II, Auria and Shadow III casino cabinets, Hippo’s Lock starts its expansion journey in Mexico and intends to surpass the high expectations of local slot fans with long-lasting gaming sessions filled with prizes and adrenaline. The following plans include a global expansion having the US as the next showcase market for this FBM casino game.

BetMGM Partners with Fremantle to Launch New “The Price is Right” Game

Published

on

BetMGM and Fremantle, a world leader in creating, producing and distributing entertainment content, announced the introduction of “The Lion’s Share,” a new pricing game for “The Price is Right,” television’s longest-consecutive running game show. BetMGM, a leading iGaming and sports betting operator, will sponsor the game throughout the show’s 54th season. “The Lion’s Share” is the first custom-branded game in the show’s history and will debut Monday, Sept. 22 in the premiere episode on CBS.

“BetMGM is always looking for ways to create legendary moments. This collaboration combines the legacy of an iconic gameshow with the excitement of the BetMGM brand. The rarity of a new pricing game and the opportunity for players to win one of the largest prizes in the show’s history reflects BetMGM’s focus on bringing a world of unmatched entertainment to our players,” Matt Prevost, Chief Revenue Officer at BetMGM, said.

“The Lion’s Share” game was created as part of the partnership between BetMGM and Fremantle and is the first new pricing game to be added to the show since 2021. Contestants will have an opportunity to win up to $500,000 in cash, cars, trips, and prizes. The game begins with a challenge, where players judge if the prices of everyday items are correct. Each right answer earns them a ball, for a maximum of five. They then step into a wind tunnel chamber to collect the number of balls they’ve earned, with each ball corresponding to a particular prize, or possibly a “Lose It All” option. Contestants reveal their prizes one at a time or may stop at any point to keep what they’ve won.

“It’s an exciting moment when a new game is added. Partnering with BetMGM, a brand known for innovation in games and entertainment, is the perfect collaboration. We look forward to bringing a fresh energy to a timeless format, while honoring the iconic gameplay fans know and love,” Suzanne Lopez, COO of Fremantle, said.

In January 2025, BetMGM announced a multi-year agreement with Fremantle that secured the intellectual property rights for iconic game shows “The Price is Right” and “Family Feud” for slots, table games and non-traditional casino games. The Price is Right Big Wheel Bonus is now available exclusively at BetMGM Casino platforms. The Price is Right Fortune Pick and The Price is Right Gold Blitz Ultimate are scheduled to debut in September. Other titles scheduled during the fall include Cliff Hangers, Plinko, The Big Wheel, and Pathfinder. In addition, a “Lion’s Share” online casino game is in development with a planned 2026 release.

BetMGM’s award-winning online casino is home to over 5400 titles across North American markets and one of the largest state-by-state exclusive progressive jackpot networks. BetMGM’s jackpot network currently consists of over 25 games including popular titles such as MGM Grand Millions, Bison Fury, and 15 Lanterns. Players can earn BetMGM Rewards Points and Tier Credits by playing at BetMGM Casino. BetMGM Rewards points can be redeemed for digital bonuses, MGM Rewards Points, and Marriott Bonvoy Points.
