Stake has been welcomed to the regulated gaming market in Peru after securing a casino and sportsbook licence from the nation’s gaming authority.
The cryptocurrency casino operator will enter its latest territory with a new hire after appointing Jennyfer Escobar to the role of Country Manager in Peru.
Stake will launch its online casino and sports betting platform in Peru with Escobar’s leadership, leveraging her expertise in the nation’s gaming sector – having worked in the industry for nine years.
“I am thrilled to join team Stake and help to guide efforts in Peru,” said Escobar. “The Peruvian market has significant growth potential and we look forward to engaging even further with the region. I’m excited to continue contributing to the dynamic world of gaming in Peru and to drive innovation in this evolving industry.”
Peru has attracted a whole host of igaming companies since opening a regulated market in February 2024. Stake has become the latest online casino firm to tap into the Latin American nation’s growing audience for gambling, following the likes of SkillOnNet, Playson and SYNOT Games.
“We are delighted to bring Stake to Peru, a country that has a lot of potential for digital growth, which has been evident in recent years,” said Diana Otalora, General Manager, Latin America at Stake. “This shows our ambition to provide world-class entertainment to Peruvian customers and to expand our reach in LatAm.”
