Grupo Veramatic

What Grupo Veramatic does

Grupo Veramatic is a privately held Spanish entertainment technology group founded in 1986 in Vera, Almería, and headquartered operationally in Melilla. It operates four interrelated business lines under the JOKERBET brand: (1) a network of more than 250 physical gaming halls (Salones de Juego) across Andalucía, Región de Murcia, Castilla-La Mancha, Comunidad Valenciana, and Melilla, serving over 9,000 customers daily with slot machines, multi-player machines, roulette, and third-party sports-betting terminals from Codere, Sportium, Apuestas de Murcia, and Versus; (2) Jokerbet.es, an online sports betting and casino platform offering Create Your Bet functionality, 40+ roulette tables, 9+ blackjack tables, hundreds of online slots, and the first Spanish interconnected progressive jackpot system that is independent of slot providers; (3) a hospitality slot-machine rental business placing 2,000+ Type B machines in bars and restaurants under a zero-upfront, 50/50 revenue-share arrangement with full installation, maintenance, and regulatory compliance handled by the operator; and (4) JOKERCASH, a proprietary payment bridge enabling ATM cash deposits and withdrawals that interoperate between physical halls and online accounts.

The group is structured as a federation of nine wholly-owned regional operating subsidiaries (Veramatic SL, Automáticos Salobreña SL, Verajoker SL, Verajuegos SL, Recreativos Hispajuegos SL, Veramatic Andalucía Occidental SL, Ilorcitana del Recreativo SL, Jumad SL, and Melmatic SL) that hold the autonomous-community-level gaming operator licenses required under Spanish regulation, plus VERAMATIC ONLINE, S.A. as the digital-operating entity. General management sits with Jorge Juan Justicia as Director General. Revenue is generated transactionally from player stakes across physical halls, online wagers, and the operator's share of hospitality-machine play; the hospitality channel is billed monthly.

Differentiating technology assets include the Bizum payment integration (first Spanish online betting platform to adopt it), the proprietary JOKERCASH payment rail, the interconnected progressive jackpot pool, and multi-station gaming machines capable of serving 3+ simultaneous players. The group is GDPR-compliant under EU regulation. No external institutional investors, funding rounds, M&A activity, or public listing are disclosed in available material.
