“At BetKing, we believe in creating localised experiences that connect directly with the passions of our Nigerian players. That’s why JJ BallX is particularly important. It represents Jay Jay Okocha’s legacy in the hands of millions of Nigerians who watched him play on a global stage, and we are proud to preserve this legacy on our platform” Nengi Akinola, Head of Marketing at BetKing.
What is FootballX?
Originally launched by SmartSoft, FootballX is a dynamic crash-style game where players place bets and cash out before the ball “crashes.” The longer you stay in, the more you win — but timing is everything. It’s fast-paced, skill-based, and one of the top-performing games in SmartSoft’s portfolio. Now, with a full redesign tailored for the Nigerian market and featuring Jay Jay Okocha, JJ BallX offers an even deeper emotional connection for players.
Who is Jay Jay Okocha?
Known for his dazzling footwork, creativity, and charisma on the field, Jay Jay Okocha is a name that resonates with football fans across Africa and beyond. From mesmerizing defenders at Fenerbahçe, to becoming a fan-favorite in the Premier League, to captaining the Nigerian national team — Okocha’s career has become the stuff of legend. His character now lives inside JJ BallX, bringing his spirit into the gaming world.
Why SmartSoft?
“At SmartSoft, we believe that great entertainment comes from understanding players, not just delivering technology. We are proud to work with partners like BetKing who share our vision of localized, high-quality content that resonates with local people.
This project reflects our ongoing commitment to innovation, partnership, and player-centric design.
