GTECH G2 and Stan James have announced that they have worked together to certify the i-gaming and sports betting service provider's Margin Maker World Till system for its launch in South Africa.

The two organisations have worked together to have the GTECH G2 till system certified for operating in Western Province, South Africa, and have launched with five shops in Cape Town and plans for further openings over the course of 2012, with the potential for 100 shops across the estate.

Mark Tipping, managing director of Stan James Betting, commented: "South Africa is the latest venture in our overall business development plans. Working with GTECH G2 and the Margin Maker system ensures that wherever we are in the world, we have a market leading operating system, which allows us to offer our customers a great betting experience."

World Till is a retail cash betting solution that is deployed across the world, including in Spain, Romania and Venezuela. Working with Stan James will help GTECH G2 to increase its global footprint.
