Affiliate marketing on the rise in Latin America

They are passionate, they are fanatic and they love gaming – this is Latin America in a nutshell.

Due to recent developments, the Latin American iGaming-market has received a growing interest of late. With Colombia becoming the first country to approve a regulated online-gaming market in 2016, the latest trends indicate that more countries will follow. Market leading games developer NetEnt recently signed a customer agreement with Caliente, Mexico’s largest online casino in their regulated market. This is yet another huge step towards more doors opening for both operators and affiliates alike.

Experts believe that it will not take long before more Latin American authorities realize the benefits of the added tax income and job opportunities that a regulated online gaming market will provide.

Thanks to great advancements in technology, Latin American gamers have quickly developed a huge interest for online gaming. The surge in the use of smartphones, especially among young people, means that online gaming operators now have a strong advantage over land-based casinos.

The Latin American region has a population of over 600 million people and online operators are constantly finding new ways to tap into this market. Some of Europe’s biggest operators have already made their presence known, especially in countries like Mexico, Colombia and even Brazil.

As the number of operators increase, affiliate marketers have more brands to advertise. The number of affiliate marketers around Latin America are still relatively few and this means that there’s plenty of room for new affiliates to stake their claim.

This is why Scandinavian affiliate network Matching Visions have their sights set on conquering Latin America in 2018. Mexican international Jimena Gamboa Baragaño, was recently added to the Matching Visions team and they are now preparing to travel West and start building relationships with the Latin American affiliate crowd.

With so many countries being potentially just months away from regulation, this is the perfect time for affiliates to educate themselves in this market, Jimena adds. CEO and CO-founder Dennis Dyhr-Hansen, added that the timing couldn’t be better, especially with the upcoming football World Cup this summer.

Matching Visions Operations Manager, Andreas Lilja went on to say that trust is the key to any affiliate relationship, especially in the iGaming sphere. Hence, our initial aim will be to simply establish contact with affiliates and operators alike.

Lately, Matching Visions have been keeping busy with developing and running a Latin American affiliate site of their own, http://onlinecasinoguia.com/, aimed at educating players about the best brands in the region.

Will 2018 be the year where iGaming in Europe and Latin America come together? Only time will tell!

iGB Affiliate announce One Hundred Shoreditch as new HQ Hotel

The organising team responsible for iGB Affiliate has announced One Hundred Shoreditch as its new HQ Hotel for February’s event (6-9 February, ExCeL London).

Located in a prominent position on fashionable Shoreditch High Street, One Hundred Shoreditch is an acclaimed independent 258 room hotel offering a choice of places to eat and drink including Seed Library, an attractive rooftop bar and terrace offering panoramic views of the London skyline, a coffee shop, and the Lobby Bar which hosts a curated programme of weekly DJs alongside £10 cocktails. The venue offers five meeting and event spaces including the floor-to-ceiling glass One Hundred Room.

Announcing the new HQ Hotel, iGB Affiliate’s Naomi Barton said: “We were looking for a hotel close to ExCeL and that would connect with the unique personality of the Affiliate community.

“I have to say that One Hundred Shoreditch could have been designed with affiliates in mind! It’s as sassy as hell with great facilities, a roof top bar with amazing views of East London and it’s situated in the social heart of the vibrant East End. The bedrooms and suites provide headspace and calm in contrast to the energy of the ultra-cool hotel bars.

“I am confident One Hundred Shoreditch will resonate with show attendees – it will allow guests to socialise, network and hang out together, continuing the unique iGB Affiliate experience. We have secured 150 rooms which will be allocated on a first come, first served basis, so book now and don’t miss out on the chance to be with your peers and friends!”

She added: “The 2024 edition of iGB Affiliate will be the last held in London prior to our relocation to Barcelona the following year. As a consequence, there will be an iGB Affiliate ‘Farewell to London’ party like no other and we will be celebrating alongside our sister show ICE to ensure that we deliver something exceptional. The farewell party, iGB Affiliate Awards and our new Hotel HQ are all part of the social and networking opportunities which are pivotal to the show experience and make iGB Affiliate so special”.

As the ONLY exhibition that’s focused purely on igaming affiliation every connection made at show is going to lead somewhere. In terms of content the Pulse Stage will focus on future markets, future tech and future opportunities.
