DigiPlus Interactive Corp. has appointed global advisory firm Teneo as its strategic advisor as the Philippine digital gaming operator expands into Brazil and South Africa and seeks entry into New Zealand.

Teneo will provide senior counsel to help DigiPlus assess overseas opportunities and risks, navigate different business environments and make strategic decisions, the company said on Monday.

Financial terms and the duration of the engagement were not disclosed.

The appointment comes less than two weeks after DigiPlus’ board approved the filing of an expression of interest for an online gaming license in New Zealand, which would become its third overseas market.

New Zealand’s new regulatory framework provides for up to 15 online casino licenses, with the market scheduled to open on December 1st, 2026.

DigiPlus already holds a federal license covering online gaming and fixed-odds betting in Brazil. The company initially launched the GamePlus brand in September 2025 before pausing operations and subsequently entering the market under its established BingoPlus brand.

In July, DigiPlus joined the Brazilian Institute of Responsible Gaming, whose members include several major licensed betting operators.15

The company also secured three licenses from South Africa’s Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board in April: a National Manufacturer License, a Bookmaker License and a Bookmaker Premises License. The approvals followed applications filed in September 2025.

DigiPlus established DigiPlus Global Pte. Ltd. in Singapore in 2025 to serve as a hub for international partnerships, talent recruitment and corporate operations.

The company operates BingoPlus, ArenaPlus and GameZone in the Philippines.
