Keno has begun operations in Colombia. It will be offered throughout the country and will contribute approximately COP $500 billion to the subsidized health system over the next five years according to estimates released by regulatory body Coljuegos.

“We are making history in the industry: for the first time in a long time, Colombians will be able to have a new game that, in addition to contributing to health, will award million-dollar prizes to bettors,” said Marco Emilio Hincapié, president of Coljuegos.

Keno will be offered by four different operators and can be purchased at more than 26,000 sales terminals across all 32 departments of the country.
