Online / Land-based Sports Betting

ESL is also emerging as a major provider of online sports betting services and software in the Asia-Pacific region.

ESL manages proprietary sportsbook sites, Leaguebets.com and MegaSportsWorld.com, and owns extensive hardware infrastructure for hosting multiple sportsbooks.

ESL’s partnership with Laverock von Schoultz (LVS) has allowed it to merge its Asian focussed sportsbook software with one of Europe’s leading sportsbook providers.

Its relationship with several of the largest international sportsbooks has allowed ESL to offer competitive pricing, extensive hedging facilities and the ability to offer an array of unique sports.

In partnership with Philippine firm, Orient Capital Ventures and with LVS, ESL has developed a fully-integrated and licensed sportsbook operation in the Philippines ­ MegaSportsWorld. From its head office in Manila, Philippines, the company has started offering sports betting facilities in several key locations in Metro Manila and will soon offer the same services across the country.

MegaSportsWorld’s working relationship with PAGCOR, the Philippine Government’s gaming authority, ensures that sports enthusiasts in the Philippines have trusted and well-regulated outlets through which to wager, whilst at all times ensuring that ‘responsible gaming’ guidelines are adhered to.

ESL expects to roll out additional betting shops in several Asian countries in 2008.
