The Ukrainian Commission for Regulation of Gambling and Lotteries (CRGL) revoked the license previously issued to an owner of the 1xBet brand in the country — Tvoja Bettingova Companija LLC. 

In her recent interview with the Ukrainian media agency “Ukrinform”, Olena Vodolazhko, a temporary head of the Commission said that they had initiated a process to verify the authenticity of the documents provided by the aforementioned LLC and after getting confirmation from the investigators, a decision was immediately made to revoke the license.

CT Interactive has teamed up with Latvian online casino brands synottip.lv and joker.lv to confirm the company’s position in the country’s regulated territory.

In partnership with both brands, CT will offer 10 games on its sites that meet the needs of the market, with slots such as 40 Treasures and Duck of Luck.

The expansion in Latvia follows a busy 2022 for CT. Three partnerships have been formed to accelerate growth in Europe and Latin America through Solbet, SignorBet and Bonanza.club.

Speaking of CT’s European advances, the company announced that the new part of its gaming complex has been certified by the Malta Gaming Authority.

The provider has partnered with TotoGaming in an attempt to build on the success of recent deals such as the Latvian Joker, SynotTip, OlyBet and Octavian Lab.

Through this partnership, CT Interactive will add its game offering to over 190 games on the TotoGaming platform.

Genius Sports is launching a new product called In-Play MultiBet ahead of the FIFA World Cup that will take place this year in Qatar, giving sports fans a new way to interact with the game and increase the level of excitement and engagement during the competition.

In-Play MultiBet allows football fans to place their bets after the start of a match, giving them the option to bet on a multitude of events while the game is in progress.

The new product will be launched in time for the upcoming FIFA World Cup and will be based on the highest quality real-time odds based on artificial intelligence and verified by the Genius Sports Live Trading service.

Pariplay has been gaining momentum since the start of October, having integrated a lineup of arcade games by Kalamba into the development program of its Ignite studio.

A key incentive for Kalamba is to expand its presence in the regulated global market by choosing a portfolio distributed through the Pariplay affiliate network. This will allow to offer games like Phat Cats Megaways to a roster of Pariplay’s partners, completing Kalamba’s growth strategy establishing itself in markets such as the UK, Greece, Romania, Portugal, Italy and the US.

BGaming, an online casino development studio, received a class II license from the Romanian National Gambling Authority

The certification will allow the provider to offer more than 90 games in the country. The list will include popular games such as Wild Cash, Wild Cashx9999 and the Elvis Frog series, as well as the brand’s exclusive games for Romanian operators.

Earlier this year, BGaming announced that it had implemented all the technical improvements required by the German market regulator and began offering its gaming content to local operators and partners. Last month, the company also signed an agreement with online operator Solbet to expand in Latin America.
