Newport World Resorts is giving its online platform a serious upgrade—but don’t confuse this with a flashy new app drop. According to its parent company, Alliance Global Group Inc., the goal here isn’t to launch something new, but to level up the current digital experience in a big way.
This move comes as online gaming continues to boom in the Philippines, now making up around half of the country’s casino revenue. With the digital market projected to hit ₱200 billion (roughly $3.45 billion USD), Newport clearly wants a bigger slice of that action.
In a recent statement to the Philippine Stock Exchange, Alliance Global clarified the buzz. While some reports hinted at a new app launch, the company set the record straight: they’re not rolling out new software—they’re enhancing and unifying the systems they already have. The aim is to deliver smoother performance and meet the growing expectations of online players.
This upgrade isn’t just about keeping up—it’s about staying ahead. Newport’s refreshed platform is expected to positively impact the gaming revenue of both Travellers International Hotel Group Inc. and Alliance Global, showing just how important digital gaming has become to the company’s broader strategy.
For those unfamiliar, Newport World Resorts is right across from NAIA Terminal 3 in Manila and holds the title of the Philippines’ first integrated resort. It houses seven top-tier hotels and offers everything from gaming and entertainment to high-end dining and retail. And it’s not just about fun—Newport also champions responsible gaming, with dedicated programs that support player well-being.
In short, Newport isn’t just riding the digital wave—it’s fine-tuning its surfboard to make sure it glides smoothly. As online gaming takes center stage, this upgrade shows they’re serious about staying competitive in both tech and hospitality.
