Gamanza Engage is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Grupo Jer, one of the most prominent business groups in Colombia and a respected operator in multiple regulated iGaming markets across Latin America. This new collaboration marks a significant milestone in Gamanza Engage’s mission to become the leading provider of player engagement solutions in the region.

Grupo Jer operates from Colombia, a jurisdiction widely recognized for its maturity, regulatory standards, and strong player protection framework. The country was the first in Latin America to establish a fully regulated online gaming market, and its regulatory leadership continues to shape the region’s evolution. For Gamanza Engage, partnering with an enterprise that thrives in this environment is a clear endorsement of the company’s reliability, compliance standards, and product excellence.

As part of the deal, Grupo Jer will integrate Gamanza Engage’s full suite of engagement products, including loyalty, gamification, mini-games and tournaments. This unified platform will allow the operator to deliver deeply personalized and interactive player experiences across their brands, while simultaneously gaining the operational benefits of automation, segmentation, and real-time data.

Grupo Jer is part of a large-scale conglomerate with a diversified portfolio of operations and strong presence across Central and South America.

“At Grupo Jer, we’re always looking to innovate and deliver outstanding experiences to our customers. After reviewing several alternatives, we selected Gamanza Engage because of the flexibility of their suite, the quality of their gamification tools, and the alignment with our long-term vision for player engagement”

Laura Esparza, Commercial Director for Grupo Jer
