ZAKŁADY SPORTOWE
Paragwaj – Otwarto oferty zakładów sportowych dla nowego posiadacza licencji
By James - 1 listopada 2022 r
The National Gaming Commission (Conajzar) has opened the bids as part of the call for Public Tender No. 01/2022, which will grant a license for sports betting for the next five years.
O Warunki Przetargu wystąpiło w sumie sześć firm, ale tylko trzy złożyły swoje oferty. Uroczyste otwarcie ofert odbyło się w siedzibie Conajzar.
The three companies that submitted bids are Daruma Sam S.A. (Apostala); the consortium B-Gaming Sucursal Paraguay and Gambling S.A. and a company owned by Luis Carlos Alder Benítez (under the name Playtech), whose legal representative is former Foreign Minister Rubén Melgarejo Lanzoni.
The bidding companies were also permitted to verbally present their case as to why they should be permitted to be the sole sportsbetting operator and criticise the bids put forward by their competitors.
Jeśli chodzi o oferty ekonomiczne, Daruma Sam SA oferowała kanon na poziomie 22%, konsorcjum BGaming – Gambling SA 27%, a Playtech 23%.
Directors of current license holder Daruma Sam S.A defended their track record saying: “We formally presented our proposal, we are sure that it meets all the requirements, based on the experience obtained in these five years and our knowledge of the market, we opted for a realistic, coherent offer, instead of reckless figures that later in practice are unfeasible.”
The financial part of the tender is only one aspect of the process as experience in the area will also be taken into account.
Lokalna firma Daruma Sam otrzymała wyłączne prawo do oferowania zakładów sportowych przed ostatnimi FIFA World Cup przez pięć lat. We wrześniu Conajzar otworzył nabór do Przetargu Publicznego nr 01/2022 otwierając postępowanie na kolejne pięć.
Sports betting is permitted under Paraguay’s gaming laws which pochodzą z 1997 roku. Sports betting used to be limited to a single location attached to a racetrack. The expansion began in 2015 after CONAJZAR announced that a sport betting tender would be launched in the near future as the board began to look at opening up the market. Since then sports betting in Paraguay has proven niezwykle kontrowersyjny.
