Atucha Strategic Advisory (ASA) was appointed to lead the commercial development of RTG Slots in Latin America on 20 October 2026. ASA will work with RTG’s regional team on market certification, deals with operators and platforms, and a “hero title programme” to prioritise the games that perform best with Latin American players.
Scope and included countries
The partnership will place Mexico as the initial focus, followed by Argentina, Colombia and Peru. Brazil is on hold until its regulatory status becomes clear.
RTG reach and alliance objectives
RTG Slots said it will use the alliance to accelerate growth in regulated markets, citing its licences from the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) and the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) and its experience in more than 40 regulated and emerging markets. The supplier stated its portfolio exceeds 250 titles, it releases approximately 24 new drops a year and it works with more than 100 operators globally.
Operational plan
ASA will support certification processes and close commercial deals with operators and platforms. Ramiro Atucha, founder of Atucha Strategic Advisory, said:
"RTG Slots has something most studios entering Latin America do not have: games that have already been played at scale, for years, in markets where nothing protects a title except its own performance. Our job is to bring that catalogue to regulated markets here under the RTG Slots name and in the right order. We are not starting from zero; the team in São Paulo has already done real work. We are here to turn that into certified content, live with the operators that matter." — Ramiro Atucha
Jo Purvis, Chief Commercial Officer at RTG Slots, said:
"Latin America is a priority for us and we wanted a partner who has done this from the supplier side, not just advised on it. Working with ASA alongside our own regional team lets us move faster on certifications and partnerships while we keep doing what we do best, which is games." — Jo Purvis
For certification and compliance matters, the collaboration will connect commercial execution with regulatory processes in each market. The title programme is also expected to prioritise the most proven releases in the region.
