1xBet has reinforced its position in the Nigerian market by obtaining a license extension, allowing it to continue operating until 2024. This authorization, issued by the National Lottery Regulatory Commission, strengthens 1xBet’s dedication to its Nigerian collaborations, which commenced in 2018 with prominent entities such as the Nigeria Football Federation, the Super Eagles (Nigeria’s national football team), and the Nigerian Premier League. This action aligns with 1xBet’s wider African growth plan, demonstrated by their alliances with the Confederation of African Football and teams like Barcelona, in addition to their presence in other African nations like Ghana, Senegal, and others. It is important to mention, however, that 1xBet has encountered scrutiny, notably in 2019 when their association with Tottenham Hotspur was terminated prematurely due to inquiries into their worldwide activities. At present, their online platform remains unavailable within the UK.
