Altenar to Attend Gaming AFRIKA Summit 2026 Offering Solutions to Africa’s Regulatory, Payment, and Growth Challenges

(AsiaGameHub) –   Top sportsbook platform provider Altenar is set to participate in the Gaming AFRIKA Summit 2026, which will be held in Nairobi, Kenya, from May 4 to 6.

Kenya stands out as one of Africa’s most vibrant betting markets—industry revenues surpassed $100 million in 2024, and forecasts suggest they will hit around $831 million in 2025.

Across the broader African region, the betting industry is expected to reach $17.63 billion by 2025, highlighting its position as a fast-growing market.

Even with this growth, operators in African markets encounter multiple structural obstacles. These include fragmented and changing regulatory systems, heavy tax burdens, payment restrictions despite the prevalence of mobile money, and the requirement for extensive localization to cater to diverse audiences.

Other challenges include inconsistent infrastructure, differing degrees of digital readiness, and fierce competition in mobile-first settings. These elements complicate scalability, compliance, and keeping players engaged over the long term.

Altenar will be at the summit to assist operators in addressing these challenges. Boasting global expertise, the company already grasps the operational and technical requirements needed to thrive across Africa and has a history of helping operators realize their goals and translate them into growth.

Yiannis Mamfredas, Head of Platform Account Managers at Altenar, said:

Flexibility is central to our approach. African markets require solutions that can quickly adjust to regulatory shifts, local payment systems, and changing player behaviors. We already know the key challenges operators face in the region—from compliance and taxes to localization and player retention. Our sportsbook platform is built to directly tackle these issues through modular design, advanced risk management tools, and smooth integration with local providers. This flexibility enables our partners to scale effectively, enhance performance, and deliver customized user experiences that drive sustainable growth in highly competitive markets.
