Twain Sport, the ‘game-changing’ live sport vertical from BetGames and Hybrid Sports League, has officially gone live in the Canadian province of Ontario.

Available in both soccer (T-Kick) and basketball formats (T-Basket), Twain Sport sees professional athletes compete in daily one-on-one challenges, with non-stop 60-second matches available every two minutes throughout the day.

The live sport vertical received approval to enter Ontario from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) in February, marking Twain Sport’s debut in North America.

Subsequently, BetGames CEO Andreas Koeberl told SBC Americas that there were “big plans with over 10 partners lined up to launch Twain Sport during Q1 and early Q2”.

The plan has now come to fruition with Betano, Kaizen Gaming’s sports betting operator, launching Twain Sport in Ontario to strengthen its existing Canadian presence.

“We’re hugely ambitious with Twain Sport – it’s a product like no other and offers an incredible opportunity for operators,” said Koeberl. “This is reflected in the interest we’ve attracted since launch and leading, major names like Kaizen Gaming are rightly choosing it to boost their brands.

“Kaizen’s presence across several key markets globally offers us a fantastic platform to push on and continue to nurture Twain Sport’s incredible popularity and potential.”

In total, BetGames’ Twain Sport is now live with more than 60 operators across Europe, Africa and the Americas – having also recently debuted in Brazil via Betano – with a further 20 contracts currently under negotiation.

Christos Mavridis, Head of Live Casino at Kaizen Gaming, added: “Our partnership with BetGames’ Twain Sport highlights our commitment to offering a special online gaming experience to our customers. The games offered are high-frequency, fast, and exciting in a thoroughly modern package.”
