Betting franchise in the DRC: how to become a Woobet partner

Many operators search for a "betting franchise" or ask how to start a sportsbook or a betting company in Africa. Woobet has no standard franchise package with a public price list. It offers licensed access to the Congolese market in two variants. Woobet Betting Solutions states that it holds an official gaming licence in the DRC (sports betting, casino online and offline, lotto); proof is provided in the data room.

The partner receives regulated market access plus Woobet's own platform and POS infrastructure. Woobet's participation is based on measured gaming revenue (GGR), not on self-reporting, and both sides see the same live figures. This route suits an operator who wants a fast, turnkey start. In industry terms, this is close to a white label sportsbook: the partner operates on Woobet's platform and POS, under Woobet's licence. The details are set out in the data room.

The partner keeps its own platform, and Woobet provides the licensed market access. Oversight rests on a real-time settlement feed and audit rights, without changing your technical set-up. For operators already running a sportsbook, this is the closer match to a turnkey sportsbook solution on the licence side.

1. NDA: the confidentiality agreement protects both sides and unlocks the data room.
2. Data room: proof of licence, platform detail and full commercial terms.
3. LOI: a letter of intent with a deposit confirms mutual commitment ahead of legal review.
4. Onboarding: after legal review, technical set-up, regulatory interface and go-live.

Any next step is subject to due diligence and independent legal review under DRC and OHADA law.

Woobet has operated in the DRC itself, with its own retail network, its own POS system and a network of local agents. It presents this field experience as the complement to regulated access: Woobet brings access and operating experience, the partner brings reach. Details are shared in the data room. Woobet does not publish a number of outlets, revenues or any return promise here.

The market is large but poorly measured. According to Finance Minister Doudou Fwamba, as reported by iGaming Business on 12 January 2026, operators were estimated to have generated close to USD 1.7bn a year (a third-party estimate, not a Woobet figure). For the economic background see why invest in the DRC; for the legal framework gambling law in the DRC; for the company itself what is Woobet.
