(AsiaGameHub) - Celina Guedes, EGT's Regional Director for Brazil, talks about the firm's strategic objectives for SiGMA South America 2026 and the prospects within Brazil's developing regulatory landscape this year. Exclusive interview.- Over a year since Brazil's gaming market officially launched, companies operating in the country are now seeking to solidify their market position and expand their footprint in a growingly competitive sector. Achieving this depends on establishing strategic alliances and guaranteeing long-term scalability. Prior to SiGMA South America, a key regional event, Focus Gaming News interviewed Celina Guedes, EGT's Brazil regional director, regarding the company's approach in this changing environment, Brazil's expansion prospects, and the opportunities arising in both digital and physical gaming sectors. What does EGT expect from SiGMA South America? What are your main goals for the event? SiGMA South America has established itself as a leading conference for Latin America's gaming sector, and for EGT, it offers a strategic opportunity to reaffirm our enduring dedication to the region. Brazil is quickly establishing itself as a globally significant regulated gaming market. As the new regulatory structure materializes, the nation is transitioning into a fresh era of organized and sustainable industry expansion. Our primary objective at SiGMA South America is to reinforce strategic collaborations with operators, platforms, and industry players shaping this new regulated landscape. We also view the event as a chance to showcase EGT's technology and content offerings, encompassing solutions that serve the digital sector and potential future land-based ventures, such as VLT operations, contingent on market development. For our team, the conference centers on fostering enduring partnerships and establishing EGT as a dependable ally for operators aiming to expand in Brazil and throughout Latin America. How do you intend to surprise visitors at the expo? Do you plan to introduce new products this year? At SiGMA South America, attendees will get to explore the breadth of EGT's international collection and discover why our solutions consistently deliver strong results across various markets. Our emphasis extends beyond merely displaying games to illustrating the solidity of EGT's ecosystem—integrating captivating gameplay mechanics, robust mathematical frameworks, and dependable technology infrastructure.

We persistently broaden and modify our product range to align with the demands of regional operators and players, consistently prioritizing performance, scalability, and lasting value. What development opportunities do you identify in the Brazilian market for 2026? Brazil is approaching a pivotal juncture for the gaming sector. As regulatory progress continues, the nation holds the potential to emerge as one of the world's biggest regulated gaming markets. For 2026, we anticipate opportunities materializing across various segments. The digital market will keep growing swiftly, propelled by widespread mobile usage and robust player involvement. Simultaneously, conversations regarding physical gaming prospects—including potential VLT rollouts in specific venues—could enlarge the ecosystem in upcoming years. Brazilian gamers are notably engaged and receptive to entertainment offerings that blend compelling visual design, user-friendly gameplay, and consistent performance. Firms that grasp these patterns and can tailor their content to local tastes will be favorably situated for expansion.

(AsiaGameHub) - Mika Kuismanen, CEO of the Finnish Trade Association for Online Gambling, discussed Finland’s transition from a state-run monopoly to a regulated licensing system with Focus Gaming News. Exclusive interview.- As Finland prepares to dismantle its long-standing gambling monopoly, the nation is on the brink of a major regulatory shift within the European gaming sector. Moving to a licensing framework represents more than just a structural change; it is a vital reaction to falling channelisation rates and the rising influence of offshore, unlicensed operators. In this context, Focus Gaming News interviewed Mika Kuismanen, CEO of the Finnish Trade Association for Online Gambling, to evaluate the impact of this widely anticipated reform. Finland is currently undergoing a process that will surely serve as a milestone: the conclusion of the gambling monopoly and the launch of an open online market. What are your initial thoughts on this transition? Do you believe the timing is appropriate, or is it overdue? Shifting from a total monopoly to a licensing model is undoubtedly a positive step for several reasons. Currently, the monopoly holder’s market share in competitive sectors is alarmingly low, dropping below 30 per cent. This leads to substantial losses in state tax revenue and issues regarding the oversight of gambling within Finland. Finland has essentially been a ‘wild west’ regarding gambling, and this reform serves to regulate our system rather than liberalise it. Regrettably, this reform is at least a decade late. A sharp decline in channelisation has been evident for quite some time, but the political resolve to end the monopoly was previously absent. “Finland is really a ‘wild west’ when it comes to gambling and the reform regulates our system, not liberalises it.” Mika Kuismanen, CEO of the Finnish Trade Association for Online Gambling. Strictly regulated markets are often criticised by those who fear that overly restrictive rules drive players toward unlicensed operators. How do you perceive this risk in the Finnish context? The Gambling Law enacted last December offers a solid foundation for building a responsible market in Finland. The legislation provides operators with sufficient motivation to seek a Finnish licence. My primary concern lies in how the supervisory body will function. If it focuses almost exclusively on overseeing the licensed sector—similar to the Swedish model—without dedicating resources to curbing the black market, there is a significant risk that unlicensed operators will gain market share. We require a regulator that will proactively guide the market. What role will the Finnish Trade Association for Online Gambling occupy in this new ecosystem, and how will it adapt as the market matures? The Rahapeliala played a key role in shaping the upcoming gambling legislation, thanks to the professionalism and active engagement of its member companies. Our advocacy efforts will continue, as political risk remains a constant factor, as seen in other jurisdictions. This is evident in the frequent, often irrational, legislative threats to impose further restrictions on the gambling sector. The industry will remain an active participant now and in the future, engaging in dialogue with regulatory authorities and government bodies, while representing the sector in media and industry-related forums. Which elements of the new regulatory framework require further refinement before the 2027 launch? The Gambling Act does not require, nor should it undergo, changes before the market opens on July 1, 2027. As mentioned, the law is balanced for all stakeholders. What remains to be clarified are the technical requirements for operators, such as the protocols for reporting gaming events to the regulator. Additionally, discussions regarding how the authority will issue guidance on advertising and marketing have yet to take place. The licensing process for Finnish online gambling has recently commenced. What has been the initial reaction from operators preparing for the July 2027 deadline? Operators are showing great enthusiasm for the Finnish market. We have seen a surprisingly high volume of inquiries and requests for guidance, especially given that Finland is not a particularly large market. I anticipate a significant number of licence applications; at the time of this writing, the Police Board has already received 24 applications, despite there being well over a year until the market officially opens. Looking ahead, what is your outlook for the industry’s future in Finland? I am cautiously optimistic. The law provides a strong opportunity for the industry to develop in Finland. However, it is important to note that the sector faces pressure from multiple sides. Political demand for regulation is intense, and some politicians fail to grasp that irrational regulation only fuels the black market. The upcoming election cycle (2027-2031) is critical; if hasty, ill-conceived changes are made to the law without empirical justification, the industry risks a negative trajectory. “The law provides a good opportunity for the development of the industry in Finland.” Mika Kuismanen, CEO of the Finnish Trade Association for Online Gambling. Do you believe a harmonised set of rules across European gambling markets is realistic, and would that genuinely simplify things for operators? That is an excellent question, and it is a topic that receives far too little consideration. I subscribe to the view that European-level regulation would be beneficial, particularly in preventing or hindering the operations of unlicensed companies. This would be especially valuable regarding issues like payment processing and IP blocking. It would also mitigate the risk of individual nations acting as free-riders.

(AsiaGameHub) - Bill 403 puts forward a prohibition on gambling advertisements, other new restrictions, and a levy to support treatment programs. Panama.- The National Assembly has voted to pass a bill imposing new gambling restrictions in Panama. Sponsored by deputies Raúl Pineda and Crispiano Adames, Bill 403 now needs only final approval from President José Raúl Mulino Quintero to become law. Designed to enhance protection for vulnerable groups against gambling-related harm, the legislation will impose a 10 percent levy on the revenues of online gambling operators. Funds from the levy will go to the Institute of Mental Health (INSAM) to support the creation of treatment programs and the setup of a specialized gambling addiction center in Panama. As noted by Focus Gaming News Latinoamérica, the legislation will also ban gambling ads in traditional media, social media, and sports, and forbid the use of celebrities or influencers to promote gambling. It will also mandate that online platforms use biometric identification to keep minors from accessing gambling services. Additionally, payment methods will be limited to lower the risk of debt and unregulated spending. Oversight of the new rules will be handled by the Gaming Control Board (JCJ), which will have tools to monitor compliance in real time. Violations could lead to fines of up to 10 percent of an operator’s revenue, license suspensions, or criminal charges. Educational efforts are also included in the bill, with plans to roll out awareness programs in schools across the country. Panama’s action follows Brazil’s increase in its gambling tax rate and Colombia’s announcement of a new gambling consumption tax. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) - This system will automatically deny access to military personnel who appear on the designated list. Ukraine.- According to reports, Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation and Ministry of Defence are developing a system designed to stop military personnel from accessing gambling websites. PlayCity, the country’s new state-run gambling regulator, will roll out the system, which will oblige platform operators to cross-verify all users against a list of serving military staff. Operators are already required to screen all gamblers against a registry of people who are banned from gambling. Moving forward, they will also have to run checks against the list of military personnel, and block access for any user who matches an entry on the list. Officials have stressed that operators will not be told if an individual is serving in the military; the system will only indicate if access restrictions are applicable, without revealing personal details. In an official post published on Facebook, the Ministry of Digital Transformation said: “We are continuing our structured efforts to combat gambling addiction. Our core objective is to protect service members and their families from the risks and negative impacts of problem gambling. To deliver this, we are working alongside the Ministry of Defence to create a mechanism that will limit the participation of defenders in gambling activities while martial law remains in place”. This new measure follows 2024 legislation passed in Ukraine to ban online gambling for all members of the country’s armed forces. The ban was initially prompted by a petition launched by a serving soldier, who cited multiple cases where service members spent their entire salaries on gambling, were forced to take out loans, fell into crippling debt, and even faced temptation to pawn military equipment to cover their losses. PlayCity launched its operations last year, taking over from the previous gambling regulator KRAIL. The body announced that it had blocked over 2,500 unlicensed online casino platforms throughout 2025. This article is provided by a third-party.

Press release.- Soft2Bet has been nominated in three categories at SBC Awards Europe, showcasing the robustness of its platform, gamification, and product innovation throughout major European markets. This recognition follows a year of impressive financial results and sustained momentum across the company.

Furthermore, MEGA Clawee, a nostalgic claw-machine game re-envisioned for online play and part of the MEGA suite, has also been nominated for Industry Innovation of the Year. Performance across Europe continues to validate Soft2Bet’s strategy. The company previously reported a substantial increase in EBITDA and growth in sportsbook revenue over a 12-month period, alongside a significant uplift for its brands throughout the year. Collectively, these results underscore the strength of Soft2Bet’s performance-first B2B model, which integrates product innovation, MEGA-powered gamification, localization, and compliance to foster sustainable growth in saturated, highly competitive markets. The Platform Provider of the Year nomination reflects the strength of Soft2Bet’s core platform, which integrates player account management, payments, CRM and segmentation, bonus and loyalty tools, risk controls, and gamification into a unified stack. Built on a mobile-first foundation and a single centralized backend, it provides operators with the speed and flexibility to launch quickly, adapt to local market demands, and scale across casino and sportsbook with enhanced control. On the gamification front, MEGA Clawee introduces a remote-controlled claw machine into the online experience, combining skill-based gameplay with instant prizes, which creates an effective retention loop. Harrison Barrett, VP of Business Development at Soft2Bet, commented: “Being nominated in three categories at SBC Awards Europe is a strong affirmation of our ongoing development. Our objective is to provide operators with a high-performing platform, impactful local execution, and product experiences that encourage player loyalty. MEGA is fundamental to this, helping to convert engagement into stronger retention and long-term value.” For Soft2Bet, this shortlisting represents another significant achievement during a period of strong commercial progress, product expansion, and industry recognition, as the company continues to assist operators in launching, localizing, and scaling through platform technology and engagement products designed for enduring growth.

(AsiaGameHub) - Allwyn states that it has fulfilled the Gambling Commission's requirements as set out in its enabling agreement. UK.- Allwyn reports that it has now injected over £450m into modernising the UK National Lottery since assuming control from Camelot in February 2024. The firm characterises its overhaul under the fourth lottery licence as the most significant transformation of the lottery since its launch in 1994. The Gambling Commission initiated an investigation last year concerning delays in Allwyn’s modernisation of the lottery after several deadlines were missed. Although the findings have not yet been released, Allwyn indicates that the investment milestone demonstrates that the requirements for Fully Implemented Commencement (‘FIC’) outlined in the Enabling Agreement have been met. The National Lottery experienced multiple outages during this period. In August, Allwyn briefly halted operations to facilitate the replacement of lottery terminals across more than 40,000 retail locations. In January, the website and mobile apps were inaccessible for 24 hours during a digital system update designed to implement a new user interface and enhanced player safety protocols, including mandatory deposit and spending caps, hourly automatic logouts, and responsible gambling alerts for instant win games. From a financial perspective, Allwyn’s first full year leading the National Lottery resulted in a 3.5 per cent increase in sales to £8.1bn in 2025. Digital channels generated £4.1bn of this revenue, narrowly exceeding retail sales for the first time. Approximately 12 million players participated digitally. Funds raised for good causes in 2025 amounted to £1.7bn, averaging £33m per week. Allwyn has set a goal of reaching £60m per week by the expiration of its licence in 2034. Andria Vidler, CEO of Allwyn UK, stated: “Allwyn is dedicated to bringing back the magic to The National Lottery and driving sustainable growth. We consider the stewardship of this unique British institution to be both a privilege and a duty we treat with the utmost seriousness. “We are thrilled to be delivering growth for The National Lottery while successfully finalising the largest international lottery upgrade in history. This is a highly promising time for The National Lottery and its participants, as these essential upgrades enable us to introduce new games and products, allowing us to raise record sums for Good Causes.” This month, Allwyn UK appointed Katie Harbron as its new Director of Games. Her mandate is to foster innovation within The National Lottery’s game portfolio. The company also launched an internal creative and content production studio named Studio 59, a reference to the number of balls in the main lotto game. Allwyn stated that the creation of the new studio is in response to a “swift evolution in the marketing and media landscape, with rising demand for timely, relevant, and culturally aware content across digital platforms”. By enhancing its in-house capabilities, the company aims to expedite content production and streamline operational workflows. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) - Play’n GO has introduced Hope Unleashed Fortune Rises, a new slot game rooted in the Pandora myth. The title includes a Magic Circle mechanic and marble-inspired visuals. Press release: Play’n GO has unveiled Hope Unleashed Fortune Rises, a myth-rich tale of temptation and consequence, where a forbidden lock clicks open and the room shifts instantly. Certain artefacts are meant to be appreciated from afar. This isn’t one of them. Hope Unleashed Fortune Rises focuses on an ancient box with a troublesome aura—ornate, demanding, and silently sure you’ll reach for it. Pandora sits at the story’s heart with the confidence of someone who never needed permission, guiding players through a changing mosaic of symbols that flicker like half-remembered warnings and incomplete promises. Instead of relying solely on spectacle, the game embraces an ongoing push and pull between restraint and curiosity. Sealed moments can crowd the reels, refusing to reveal their true nature until the very last second. When the Magic Circle surfaces, the tone shifts again—a pulse of inevitability suggesting the box has its own agenda. Through it all, stray Souls cling on, hinting something escaped long ago and another thing stayed behind for a reason. Visually, Hope Unleashed Fortune Rises frames the myth in marble halls and midnight-blue shadows, then cuts through it with a neon glow that makes the setting feel newly dangerous. Pandora’s presence is ever-watchful, while artefacts glint like contraband from a forbidden vault. The box itself remains the quiet centrepiece: a challenge, a dare, and a mirror held to the player’s curiosity. Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Pandora’s myth endures because it’s human—the need to know, the cost of knowing, and the stubborn spark that survives the fallout. Hope Unleashed Fortune Rises turns that tension into a story players can feel from the first moment.” This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) - In preparation for SiGMA South America 2026, Steven Valentine, the Chief Commercial Officer of Comtrade Gaming, discussed the firm's expansion into Brazil and its advancements in artificial intelligence with Focus Gaming News. Exclusive interview.- With Brazil's regulated igaming market transitioning from potential to reality, the emphasis throughout Latin America is quickly moving toward operational performance, regulatory compliance, and enduring sustainability. Against this backdrop, Comtrade Gaming is establishing itself as more than just a new entrant, with the goal of assisting operators in managing the intricacies of an active regulatory system. During SiGMA South America 2026, Focus Gaming News interviewed Steven Valentine, chief commercial officer, regarding the practical challenges of Brazil's new regulatory system, the expanding significance of AI in managing players, and the ways multi-platform approaches are transforming the competitive landscape in the region. SiGMA South America 2026 occurs at a pivotal time for regulated market growth in Latin America. What are Comtrade Gaming’s primary goals for this year's event, and how would you describe the evolution of your role in the Brazilian market since regulations were implemented? SiGMA South America is happening at a critical juncture as Brazil's market has moved from a theoretical opportunity to practical implementation. At Comtrade Gaming, our priority is on expansion — we are already operational, certified, and providing support to operators within the regulated framework. The discussion now centers on efficiency, adherence to rules, and sustained reliability. Our role has logically progressed from initial market penetration to aiding operators in refining their operations and expanding within a fully regulated environment. “SiGMA South America comes at a key moment where Brazil has shifted from opportunity to execution.” Steven Valentine, chief commercial officer at Comtrade Gaming. Following the achievement of GLI certification and the integration of Brazilian clients, what are the most significant operational or technical difficulties operators are currently encountering, and how does your platform assist them in managing this new regulatory framework? The primary difficulty is not achieving certification, but rather functioning daily within a dynamic and changing regulatory structure. Operators are managing obligations for real-time reporting, local system integrations, and ensuring consistent performance as regulatory demands keep evolving. Our platform is built to manage this complexity. We employ a modular approach that enables operators to adjust swiftly, and we act as a collaborative partner in understanding regulation, not merely as a technology supplier. Your company has made significant investments in AI-powered tools for analyzing player behavior and making predictions. How are these solutions advancing in 2026, and what concrete benefits are they delivering for player lifetime value and operator efficiency? AI is now fundamental to how operators manage the balance between expansion and oversight. Our current emphasis is on predictive tools that work in real-time — assessing a player's value, risk of leaving, and behavioral trends while they are still engaged. The outcomes are measurable: enhanced player lifetime value, more effective bonus allocation, improved profit management, and more robust tools for promoting responsible gambling. Brazil's licensing model, which allows for multiple brands, has fostered intense competition. What is your outlook on the multi-platform trend for 2026, and what qualities make Comtrade Gaming a durable partner instead of a temporary fix? Brazil's multi-brand framework is fostering a market that is both more competitive and advanced. Operators are more frequently turning to multi-platform tactics to distinguish their offerings and maintain adaptability. Comtrade Gaming's function is to provide that adaptability — facilitating integration, growth capacity, and ongoing development. This is what establishes us as a strategic ally, not a temporary provider. “Operators are increasingly adopting multi-platform strategies to differentiate and stay flexible.” Steven Valentine, chief commercial officer at Comtrade Gaming. You have repeatedly stressed the value of having a local presence, such as assembling a technical team that speaks Portuguese. How has this commitment to localizing your operations resulted in a stronger market position and improved client loyalty in the region? I consider it an essential requirement rather than a simple advantage; forming substantial partnerships is not feasible without a team that can communicate in the local language. Looking forward to the coming 12–18 months, what key achievements, be they in partnerships, product development, or regional growth, will characterize Comtrade Gaming’s subsequent growth stage in the Americas? In the next 12–18 months, our attention is on effective implementation and manageable growth. This involves enlarging our presence in Brazil, maintaining our investment in AI and product development, and pursuing careful expansion in other Latin American markets as their regulatory landscapes mature. The goal is straightforward: to cement our status as a reliable, long-term partner within regulated markets. This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) - A German researcher alleges that material exposing unlawful conduct was discovered following a hack of the MGA. Germany.- The Malta Gaming Authority has dismissed allegations of criminal activity made by a researcher who says she infiltrated its systems. In a Friday (March 20) statement, the MGA labelled the hack as “unacceptable and incompatible with lawful engagement with public institutions and established governance frameworks,” also dismissing the unspecified claims as “unsubstantiated”. The regulator had previously released a statement acknowledging a security breach in one of its systems. Without giving specifics, it confirmed it had activated internal response protocols for an incident it was handling “with the utmost seriousness”. A German security researcher subsequently took credit for breaching the gambling regulator's systems. Lilith Wittmann, who identifies as an ethical hacker, stated on social media that she accessed records including operator compliance files and player data, along with material she alleges connects the MGA to organized crime within Malta's gambling sector. On Twitter, she posted: “Yes, we will expose the organised crime enablement schemes you created while presenting yourselves as a ‘legitimate public service’.” She further cautioned that any law enforcement action in Malta would “trigger the immediate release of my entire archive of igaming-related data“. “I am certain that the information obtained is so valuable for the public discourse that obtaining it will one day, in the not-too-distant future, be seen as a justified necessity,” she added. Dear Malta Gaming Authority,Yes, I hacked you, and the data obtained has been shared with media partners, authorities,….And yes, we will expose the organized crime enablement schemes you created while presenting yourselves as a “legitimate public service”. pic.twitter.com/Z7EqRnNbCk— Lilith Wittmann (@LilithWittmann) March 20, 2026 The MGA stated in its Friday response: “The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is aware of public statements made by an individual claiming responsibility for unauthorised access to one of the Authority’s systems and making a series of allegations and threats in that context. The MGA condemns any unauthorised access to its systems and any extraction, handling or dissemination of data obtained through such activity. Such conduct is unacceptable and incompatible with lawful engagement with public institutions and established governance frameworks. “The Authority operates within a robust legal and regulatory framework and carries out its statutory functions with integrity, independence and accountability. Allegations made in the context of unauthorised system access are unsubstantiated and do not undermine the MGA’s role as a regulator committed to transparency, due process and the rule of law. “For more than two decades, the MGA has operated within established legal and governance frameworks, and will continue to do so. Ensuring that the Authority’s work, and the industry it regulates, operate with integrity and accountability is paramount.” This article is provided by a third-party.

(AsiaGameHub) - This proposed change would hold individual employees of gambling operators accountable for violations related to anti-money laundering (AML) or know-your-customer (KYC) regulations. The Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission (GSC) in the UK has initiated a consultation period for the proposed Gambling Legislation (Amendment) Bill 2025. These reforms aim to increase the responsibility placed on individuals within gambling operations, potentially leading to direct personal fines for managers and key personnel who fail to adhere to anti-money laundering (AML) or know-your-customer (KYC) requirements. The initiative seeks to expand the scope of civil penalties to encompass employees, not just licensed operators. Sanctions could be applied in cases where breaches occur due to "consent, connivance, or simple negligence." This new framework will subject gaming operators' directors, compliance officers, and senior executives to greater scrutiny, as their day-to-day decisions significantly influence anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing measures. The regulator is soliciting feedback from the industry before finalizing these amendments. Submissions will be accepted until May 25, and an online question-and-answer session is scheduled to provide stakeholders with an opportunity to voice concerns and discuss the implications of personal liability. These developments follow a £200,000 fine imposed by the GSC on Shelgeyr Limited, the owner of Maverick Games, in February. The fine was a result of identified significant deficiencies in customer due diligence, enhanced due diligence, and account monitoring. Officials indicated that these shortcomings pointed to systemic issues rather than isolated errors, underscoring the necessity for more robust compliance mechanisms. Concurrently, the GSC has intensified its assessment of money laundering risks within the Isle of Man's gambling sector. Its most recent National Risk Assessment highlights persistent concerns regarding Southeast Asian criminal networks, in addition to other global challenges. The regulator has determined that the Isle of Man's gambling industry as a whole now presents a "medium high" risk for money laundering, an increase from "medium" five years ago. Online gambling has been categorized similarly. This report comes after the GSC's assessment last year, which classified gambling as a medium-low risk for terrorist financing in its inaugural standalone Terrorist Financing National Risk Assessment (TFNRA).
