UBET enhances games portfolio by introducing e-soccer

Maltco Lotteries announced the launch of E-Soccer betting, enriching its UBET sportsbook with one of the world’s fastest growing virtual spectator sports.

E-Soccer will be available across Maltco Lotteries’ retail network, offering top-notch responsible entertainment.

The announcement comes shortly after the re-opening of the National Lottery operator network, following the shut down due to COVID-19.

Through UBET’s E-Soccer, Maltco Lotteries will offer players the opportunity to bet on some of the world’s most popular electronic football leagues of FIFA20, powered by Sportradar. E-Soccer is a groundbreaking sport, in which authentic players and their respective teams compete for top prizes, at the world’s major sports tournaments.

“Maltco Lotteries is always seeking to innovate and differentiate its offering by introducing new games in Malta. Intralot has been instrumental in our company’s wide modernisation, by providing us with next-generation solutions,” said Vasileios Kasiotakis, Maltco Lotteries’ CEO.

“As pioneers of betting in Malta and having established UBET as a leading and trusted brand, it was only natural for Maltco Lotteries to take the next step and expand its sports offering, with electronic leagues. Our aim is to offer E-Soccer players a comprehensive betting option, which features a simple participation method, and responsibly enhance their player experience.”

Intralot Group CEO, Chris Dimitriadis said: “We are proud to see Maltco Lotteries at the forefront of retail transformation, elevating the digital experience of players. Intralot has built upon a broad portfolio of next generation solutions and operational expertise across verticals, that enable lottery and gaming operators to forge new opportunities in unprecedented times and drive growth.”

E-Soccer betting is available daily from Maltco Lotteries’ fully operational POS network, which has implemented social distancing measures, offering a safe environment. Players can choose this environment, among a vast portfolio of entertaining games, specifically designed to comply with responsible gaming principles.
