Alfabet, Rivalo latest Colombia online gambling licensees

Colombia has two new locally licensed online gambling operators, bringing its total number of online licensees to 14.

On Thursday, Colombia’s Cojuegos gambling regulatory body announced the issuing of its 13th and 14th online gaming licenses to Alfabet SAS and Teclino SAS, who will operate online via the Betalfa.co and Rivalo.co domains, respectively. Each of the licenses is valid for an initial three-year term.

Alfabet is a domestic firm based in the city of Cali, but that’s about all the information that can be publicly gleaned about the new licensee. The company’s website currently displays a ‘coming soon’ message, complete with dummy text that literally reads “authorized and regulated by dummy text.”

Teclino is a subsidiary of Curacao-licensed online gambling operator Matchserv Solutions, which also operates internationally via its Rivalo.com and Rivalo188.com sites. Like Alfabet, Teclino’s Colombian site is equally not ready for prime time, containing only a message that ‘good things make you wait.’
