On September 21, a new sponsorship agreement between a company in the online gaming sector and a world-class football team was announced. On this occasion, it has been confirmed that 22BET will be the official Paris Saint-Germain betting house in Africa.
We must emphasize that in the official press release they explain that PSG has the implementation of Digital Overlay technology available to the sponsor, which allows segmenting the advertisements shown on the stadium's LED screens, based on the television audiences of every region of the world, a feature that will undoubtedly be very useful in evading bans on gaming advertising where necessary.
Next, we share the official press release of this new sponsorship agreement:
African operator 22BET has inked a new sponsorship agreement with Paris Saint-Germain, which will see the betting company become the club’s first Official African Betting Partner.
Hampus Lofkvist, Sportradar’s Director, Global Sponsorship Sales, said:

We look forward to supporting 22BET leverage this opportunity and achieve growth throughout a continent that has a deep passion for football.”
Under the terms of the agreement, 22BET will benefit from the implementation of Digital Overlay technology at the Parc des Princes – which uses geo-localised adverts on LED screens around the pitch by adapting messages to the broadcaster’s audience.
