Playmaker Capital Inc., the digital sports media company that delivers authentic content experiences through its portfolio of sports media and technology brands, has announced the acquisition of Varsky Sports and the associated partnership with renowned Argentinian sports journalist Juan Pablo Varsky.

Varsky, now a global “Playmaker Ambassador”, has an unrivaled professional track record in Latin American sports media with more than 30 years of experience working with some of the most recognized print, television, radio, and digital outlets across the region, as well as with CNN Español in the U.S. His resumé includes coverage of thousands of soccer matches, seven FIFA Football World Cups, Olympic Games, European Cup/UEFA Champions League finals, as well as multiple South American tournaments.

Playmaker has acquired the rights to the social accounts @VarskySports on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, which have a cumulative global audience of more than two million followers. @VarskySports is one of the most influential digital sports content accounts in South America, followed by hundreds of athletes, head coaches, national federations, and journalists. A key element of the agreement will see Varsky publish a weekly opinion column on Bolavip.com, accessible to more than 20 million unique Spanish-speaking soccer fans who visit the site each month.

“I am very happy and proud to join the Playmaker family. We are at the right time to work together and I am sure that we will be making many more exciting announcements in the months and years to come,” commented Juan Pablo Varsky. “In my role as a Playmaker Ambassador, we will help take Bolavip.com to even greater heights, and solidify ourselves as the number one resource for soccer information in Latin America and with the US Hispanic market. This is the beginning of a long and fruitful relationship.”

“We warmly welcome Juan Pablo to Playmaker and Futbol Sites”, commented Nahuel Pan, COO of Futbol Sites. “Juan Pablo is a highly respected and well-recognized professional in the Latin American sports media market. Being able to add him to our group, and the audiences he has access to through @VarskySports, is a major milestone in the history of our company”.

ThrillTech secures regulatory approvals to launch jackpots in Latam

 

Peru and Brazil to provide launchpad for Latam expansion as ThrillTech strengthens presence in emerging regulated markets

ThrillTech, the B2B jackpot specialist, has taken a significant step forward in its international growth strategy after securing a B2B licence in Peru and regulatory certification in Brazil.

The approvals clear the path for ThrillTech to launch its proprietary player-funded jackpot solutions in Latin America for the first time, bringing its flagship ThrillPots product to one of the world’s most exciting and emerging regions for iGaming.

Latin America has become a focal point for operators in recent years, with Brazil’s market liberalisation and Peru’s structured regulatory framework, as set out by the country’s ministry of foreign trade and tourism (MINCETUR), providing fertile ground for innovative engagement tools.

By working tirelessly to secure entry into both countries, ThrillTech is positioning itself to support operators with compliant, performance-driven jackpot mechanics that can drive revenue and enhance retention.

Peter Mares, CTO and co-founder of ThrillTech, said: “Expanding into Latin America is a milestone moment for us. The region is bursting with opportunity, but it also demands solutions that are flexible, transparent, and built to scale. With a licence in Peru and certification in Brazil, we are ready to deliver the same measurable revenue impact to operators in Latam that we’ve already proven in Europe.

ThrillTech’s products are designed to provide operators with new revenue streams through side-bet jackpots, while also offering real-time engagement mechanics via cash-only rewards.

Already integrated with multiple tier-one operators in Europe, ThrillTech is now primed to replicate that success in Latam by delivering regulator-approved solutions to local operators.
