“We are deliberately not pursuing an aggressive expansion agenda in the early months,” he explains. “We want to prioritise integration and consolidating our existing positions first, and only look at new market entry once we are confident the operational foundations are in place.”

Some analysts have questioned whether this deal marks the beginning of an M&A spree for GiG as it looks to re-enter the B2C space.

But that isn’t the case according to Richards: “We are not signalling plans to re-enter B2C elsewhere; Africa is a distinct case: a high-growth, underpenetrated region where owning a local operator makes strategic sense in a way it may not elsewhere.”

What is Phoenix?

Getting started with sports betting in Nigeria is straightforward, but a little preparation goes a long way. The first step is choosing a licensed platform that operates legally in the country and offers the sports you care about most.

Once you have picked a platform, create an account with a valid phone number and email address. Most Nigerian operators require you to verify your identity before you can withdraw winnings, so keep your details accurate from the start.

Depositing money is usually instant. Nigerian bettors can fund their accounts through bank transfer, card, USSD or popular mobile money options. Always deposit only what you can afford to lose.
