Success depends on understanding people

Building trust through localisation: how Wazdan connects with Latin American operators

As the Latin American iGaming market continues to grow, one thing has become clear: success depends on understanding people. Behind every new regulation or platform launch are players with their own habits, preferences and stories. To connect with them, developers need more than good technology. They need to listen, adapt and build trust with the local partners who know these audiences best. For Wazdan, trust begins with localisation.

The company has never believed in simply translating games or importing strategies from Europe. Instead, it focuses on creating genuine partnerships with operators who understand their markets inside out. These partnerships are based on collaboration, shared goals and a commitment to giving players the best possible experience.

Wazdan believes that localisation means more than language or currency settings. It means shaping every part of the game to match the way people play. The team considers everything from device preferences to connection speeds, adapting experiences so they feel natural in any environment.

In regions where mobile gaming dominates, for example, Wazdan’s Extremely Light series consists of titles that are fast, smooth and perfectly optimised for smaller screens. Where connectivity is less consistent, it reduces loading times and keeps interfaces simple, so players can enjoy uninterrupted gameplay.

Local operators play a huge role in this process. They know their players better than anyone, and Wazdan values their insight. Working closely together allows the studio to fine-tune features, jackpots and volatility settings so they feel right for local audiences.

Cultural understanding is another essential part of the process. Wazdan recognises that imagery and storytelling carry different meanings across cultures, so its design team carefully crafts each experience to reflect local traditions without leaning on clichés.

Zoning in on Mighty Wild™: Panther and Mighty Wild™: Jaguar, both titles draw inspiration from Latin American wildlife, creating a strong emotional connection with players through authentic visual and thematic cues.

This approach is especially visible in Bumba Meu Boi Coin™, a title shaped around one of Brazil’s most iconic cultural celebrations. The game brings the colours, rhythm and symbolism of the Bumba Meu Boi festival into an engaging mechanic-driven experience.

By blending culturally rooted themes with engineered gameplay precision, the title resonates deeply with Brazilian players and showcases Wazdan’s commitment to meaningful localisation.

In the end, Wazdan’s goal is not just to enter Latin America but to belong to it. The studio’s success comes from listening, learning and working side by side with the people who make the market thrive. Localisation, for Wazdan, is not a checklist. It is an attitude.

By putting people first and treating every partnership as a long-term collaboration, the company continues to grow across Latin America in a way that feels authentic, sustainable and connected.
