While West Africa might not be known as a hotbed for online casinos, the West African CFA franc is actually the currency of eight independent states in West Africa: Niger, Senegal, Benin, Togo, Burkina Faso, Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, and Guinea-Bissau.
Between them, these eight countries have a population of over 100 million people and a combined GDP of more than $125 billion. So while the area might not be awash with online casino players in the same way Europe is, there is still a considerable market to serve.
The CFA Franc will be the currency of choice for those playing online casinos from this area.
