Altenar releases new Ganagol tool as key differentiator for LatAm markets
![Altenar releases new Ganagol tool as key differentiator for LatAm markets](https://gamingamericas.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/ganagol.jpg)
Altenar, the leading sportsbook and iGaming software supplier, has upgraded its compelling betting tools offering with the introduction of a new Ganagol game.
The latest addition to Altenar’s software is an alternative form of sports betting which boosts engagement and brand loyalty for operators. Rather than betting on individual events, Ganagol allows players to pay an entry fee for the chance to predict the outcome of a series of events for prizes.
By using the new tool, which is also known as Toto in some parts of the world, players can predict the result of a series of football fixtures, with a clean sweep of correct outcomes winning a large prize, while a specific number of results lands them smaller rewards.
Altenar’s operator partners will also be able to choose the format of the game, including match results or correct scores, to meet their needs, as well as customising the payout structure to allow for weekly prizes or rollover jackpots.
A percentage of the entry fee can be added to the category payments, meaning the prize pot increases in line with the number of participants, adding a sense of anticipation as the potential winnings rise. To add further interest, players can also predict the range of goals scored in the same set of fixtures.
This new release serves as a significant differentiator for operators with an eye on global expansion, with the product particularly popular in LatAm.
Dinos Doxiadis, Sportsbook Product Development Manager at Altenar, said: “This is an uplift of a product that has had great adoption in LatAm.
“The new functionalities give our operators more options to increase user engagement, retention and acquisition. We believe that it is by far the most sophisticated tool of its kind across the industry.”
