Kindred Sportsbook Platform Goes Live in Estonia
Kindred has officially launched its Kindred Sportsbook Platform (KSP) in the regulated market of Estonia.
KSP’s Estonia entry is part of the operator’s goal to develop new proprietary solutions and have full end-to-end control over its products, limiting the dependency on external suppliers.
During the sportsbook’s first week of operations in the Baltic country, players were given tailored profit boosts and other rewards tied to local teams and events, such as the EuroBasket game and an exhibition tennis event – both held at the Tallinn Unibet Arena.
KSP is built with an optimal player experience in mind, boasting features like BetBuilder and easy platform migration to mitigate customer disruption.
Additionally, the solution introduces dynamic cash-out and tenancy-based odds adjustments that complement local initiatives and brands, which will help Kindred scale KSP across all other available markets.
“As we celebrate this achievement, we remain focused on the journey ahead. Together, we are building a market-leading sportsbook that embodies Kindred’s values of innovation, responsibility, and excellence,” the company explained.
“The launch of KSP in Estonia is more than just a technological milestone; it’s a testament to what we can achieve when we innovate with purpose. We’re excited to continue delivering a world-class sports betting experience to our customers, one market at a time.”

Peru’s Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur) reported that, a little more than a year after having implemented the law that regulates the online sector, it has been able to reduce by 40% the offer of illegal games in digital platforms and applications.
In a public statement, the Executive portfolio in charge of regulating gambling also highlighted that, thanks to the inspection work, 15% of the illegal websites “have left the Peruvian market” and that “payment methods providers and financial entities have been contacted to block services to unauthorized operators”.
Based on this, Mincetur highlighted that “Peru has managed to position itself as a regional referent in the integral regulation of gambling” and that, through the normative framework, it was possible to “protect the consumer, guarantee transparency in the operations and promote the formal and sustainable economic development”.
The Ministry highlighted that with the implementation of Law No 31557, which regulates sports betting and online games, “the country became the third country in Latin America to establish clear regulations for this activity”.
“Since its entry into force in February 2024, 60 technological platforms have been authorized and 280 linked service providers have been registered, as well as the accreditation of nine international certification laboratories,” Mincetur said.
In this regard, the Ministry stated that “this regulation has made it possible to formalize the digital sector, promoting an environment of trust for both operators and users.” At the same time, it has allowed “new investment opportunities, boosting the digitalization of entertainment and strengthening the country’s tax collection”.

Leading sportsbook provider unveils major terminal update with over-the-air functionality, dual screen features and customisable operator tools
Altenar has rolled out a significant rebuild of its self-service betting terminal, introducing a suite of new features aimed at improving operational performance, stability and delivering a cutting-edge user experience.
The new version of the terminal software features innovative dual touchscreens with bidirectional functionality, seamless QR code payments via mobile app, integrated vouchers, and live streaming capabilities – turning the terminal into a modern entertainment hub for users.
Operators can now benefit from a robust middleware layer equipped with a comprehensive suite of ready-to-use features, enabling faster deployment and smoother updates even at the terminal level. The introduction of over-the-air (OTA) updates supports rapid rollouts across geographies, ensuring continuity of service and minimal disruption.
A standout aspect of the new terminal is its high level of customisation. Operators can configure dynamic user flows, adjust operating hours, and define terminal modes on a local or global level. Promotional content can also be tailored to specific regions or campaigns through content on secondary screens. Hardware integrations, including printers, bill acceptors, and coin handlers, are also supported natively, further enhancing the system’s flexibility.
The terminal’s evolution is part of Altenar’s wider retail strategy, which focuses on delivering an omnichannel experience by integrating with Altenar’s native mobile app and online sportsbook products. As a result, players can engage seamlessly across multiple touchpoints, from retail to digital, with increased revenue generation for operators.
Isidoros Siderakis, Head of Special Projects at Altenar, said: “This upgrade marks a pivotal moment in our retail strategy. By combining cutting-edge technology with deep customisation, we are delivering a terminal solution that not only meets today’s expectations but anticipates tomorrow’s demands.
“From over-the-air updates to immersive user experiences, we are giving operators the tools to run smarter, faster, and more engaging betting environments.”
Altenar will showcase its enhanced terminal at SBC Summit Americas 2025 from May 13–15. Attendees can visit the stand or book a demo to explore the terminal’s new capabilities first-hand here.
