Casino Guru and Mindway AI Announce Partnership and Launch Risk Assessment Campaign for Players

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

On the occasion of the Problem Gambling Awareness Month held every March, Casino Guru and Mindway AI partner again to launch a special campaign for Casino Guru web visitors aimed at assessing the riskiness of their play.

Until the end of the month, a special widget along with a dedicated casino card will be placed on Casino Guru’s website to invite visitors to play a simple card game which will have their gambling style assessed. Gamalyze, the award-winning creation of Mindway AI, will deliver a detailed analysis of one’s gambling style based on their behavior during the game, offering players a personalized report that includes specifically tailored recommendations.

The campaign comes as yet another result of the joint effort of both companies: to prevent problem gambling and strengthen the importance of responsible play. To maximize the potential reach, Casino Guru’s newsletter was used to increase exposure to the self-test.

The duo launched a similar campaign for the European Safer Gambling Week back in 2022, during which more than 1,500 players decided to put their gambling style to the test. This time, the companies decided to go a step further and sign a partnership agreement for closer cooperation.  The aim of the partnership is to make safer gambling tools more accessible to players, as well as raise awareness and support their interest in this very important topic.

Šimon Vincze, Casino Guru’s Sustainable and Safer Gambling Lead, commented on the new partnership: “I’m really happy that we managed to turn this idea into reality again. It’s very difficult to make players who come to our website primarily to have fun aware of the principles of responsible gambling. Thankfully, Gamalyze brings elements of gambling and gamification together and, thanks to the inherent nature of humans to be curious, creates a very useful tool for player protection.”

Rasmus Kjaergaard, Mindway AI’s CEO, also gave his opinion on the campaign: “We are proud to partner with the team at Casino Guru on this important initiative. Safer gambling is something that should be considered for all players, not just those who we perceive to be at risk or vulnerable. Tools such as Gamalyze are instrumental in normalizing these conversations and demonstrating our commitment to enabling operators to enhance player protection.” 

The duo hopes to reach as many visitors as possible, hopefully nudging them towards a more mindful approach to gambling in the process. By making players aware of their gambling style and any problem gambling tendencies that might cause them unwanted trouble later on, both companies are continuously contributing to a safer and more sustainable online gambling industry.

The wait is over! The 2025 edition of BiS SiGMA Americas is already underway and promises to be historic, accompanying a moment of intense transformation and consolidation of the iGaming scene in Brazil.

For this reason, the largest betting event in Latin America is ready to welcome and meet the demands of the national and international community. This year, the organization decided to expand the physical space by 50%, from 20 thousand square meters to 32 thousand square meters distributed in 5 halls of the Transamerica Expo Center, in São Paulo.

In addition to the trade fair and conferences with more than 300 prestigious experts from around the world, BiS SiGMA Americas offers a diverse program, including award ceremonies, exclusive networking dinners, a poker tournament, an electrifying night with MMA fights and a grand closing party.

Expectation of record attendance

In addition to the categories that have always been present at the event, such as Online Betting Operators, Software and Technology Providers, Affiliates and Digital Marketing, Payment Methods and Financial Solutions, this edition draws attention to the presence of new technology companies that add value and provide innovative resources for the industry.

This means that the betting market is evolving, with new branches emerging to strengthen the ecosystem. KYC (Know Your Customer) companies, Consulting and Compliance, Information and Database Management, AdTechs and Digital Advertising Networks are making their presence felt with solutions to ensure security, regulatory compliance and more efficient growth strategies.

Furthermore, the recent regulation of sports betting and online gaming in Brazil represents a milestone for the market. BiS SiGMA Americas therefore serves as a platform for experts, regulators and industry leaders to assess the challenges and opportunities of this time of adaptation, as well as explore global trends that may impact the local industry.

Given this, the event organizers predict that the 2025 edition will reach a record number of attendees and participating brands. The estimate is that more than 18,000 people will pass through the Transamérica Expo Center by Thursday (10).

Global B2B iGaming content provider secures first Canadian market entry following the successful submission and approval of its gaming-related supplier application

Playnetic, the in-demand global B2B iGaming content provider known for its quality games, reliable delivery and outstanding customer service, has announced the approval of its gaming-related supplier application by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO).

With the AGCO licensing process being recognised in the industry for its rigorous standards and thorough due diligence, the new certification confirms Playnetic was able to meet the high levels of integrity and regulatory compliance needed to legally distribute its content within the province.

As a result of the approval, Playnetic has now secured its first Canadian market entry and will be able to provide its library of innovative games to licensed operators in the Ontario region – with this starting point paving the way for further expansion into other regulated provinces in future.

Given signs of change emerging within the Canadian market and Alberta making progress toward a regulated online model – likely drawing from Ontario’s framework – this license positions Playnetic strongly to expand its footprint in the country and further solidifies the company’s ambitious growth plans.

In the meantime, Playnetic has already begun making groundwork with key operators in the Ontario region and is looking forward to going live with some exciting brands over the coming months. The company will also be attending SBC’s Canadian Gaming Summit from June 17-19, where both existing and new potential partners alike are welcome to stop by and meet the team.

Dan Phillips, Chief Executive Officer at Playnetic, said: “Acquiring AGCO approval for our gaming-related supplier application is undoubtedly a big step for Playnetic. The new license not only secures our first Canadian market entry, but also reaffirms Playnetic’s position as a trusted provider in iGaming and underlines our commitment to compliance and operational excellence.”

Julian Borg-Barthet, Chief Commercial Officer at Playnetic, said: “We’re very excited to now be in a position to offer our library of innovative gaming content in Ontario, and the groundwork to do that with some of the region’s biggest licensed operators is already underway. Over time, we’re confident this license will also help us expand further into current markets and emerging regulated provinces, such as Alberta.”
