Stake launches Peru casino and sportsbook website

Online casino and sportsbook Stake is furthering its expansion into LatAm by launching stake.pe after being awarded a Peru licence.

The move marks Stake as one of the first such companies to secure a licence under Peru’s newly established regulatory framework.

“We are delighted to bring Stake to Peru, a country that has a lot of potential for digital growth, which has been evident in recent years,” said Diana Otalora, general manager, Latin America at Stake. “This shows our ambition to provide world-class entertainment to Peruvian customers and to expand our reach in LatAm.”

Alongside the online launch, Stake has hired a local country manager in Peru: Jennyfer Escobar, who joins the team alongside a suite of senior women leading the LatAm strategy for Stake.

Escobar brings a wealth of knowledge to the gaming sector in Peru, having worked in the industry for nine years, leading one of the country’s top brands. Her deep understanding of the market, combined with a strategic vision, will be crucial to navigating the new regulatory landscape.

“I am thrilled to join team Stake and help to guide efforts in Peru,” said Escobar. “The Peruvian market has significant growth potential and we look forward to engaging even further with the region. I’m excited to continue contributing to the dynamic world of gaming in Peru and to drive innovation in this evolving industry.”
