SOFTSWISS Extends South African Footprint with PantherBet Launch

SOFTSWISS, a global tech leader in iGaming solutions, announces its partnership with PantherBet, a new brand powered by the award-winning SOFTSWISS Sportsbook and SOFTSWISS Casino Platform. This marks another milestone for the software provider in South Africa, affirming its commitment to supporting ambitious, locally licensed operators.

The National Gambling Board (NGB) recently announced that South Africa recorded a gambling turnover of EUR 75.47 billion (R1.5 trillion) during the 2024/25 financial year, up from around EUR 55.3 billion (R1.1 trillion) in 2023/24. This year-on-year increase reflects continued expansion in regulated gambling activity, particularly within licensed betting channels, and underscores the scale and commercial relevance of the South African market.

Against this backdrop, PantherBet launched in September with a clear ambition: to become one of South Africa’s leading premium destinations offering responsible, innovative, market-leading entertainment. The operator’s approach centres on modern design, intuitive user experience, and a strong commitment to building long-term trust with players. By partnering with SOFTSWISS, PantherBet is leveraging technology that has already been tested in multiple regulated markets, including Europe, LatAm, and Africa.
