Sportingwin Signs Sponsorship Deal with Sepsi FC
Sportingwin has signed a sponsorship deal with Romanian Cup holders, Sepsi FC.
Sportingwin is laser-focused on Eastern European markets and last year became the fifth operator to launch in Bulgaria and is already generating more than €1m YTD. Romania is the next step in its market roadmap with other jurisdictions in the pipeline. This new deal forms part of a far-reaching marketing campaign that will be rolled out across the country.
Led by a team of industry veterans and sports betting specialists, the ultimate goal of Sportingwin is to dominate Eastern European sports betting markets.
Mark Chakravarti, Investment Director at Sportingwin, said: “From day one, we have made it clear that we see huge potential in regulated markets across Eastern Europe and already our brand is well recognised by players across the region.
“With our Romania licence in hand, we can now get ready to make our move in the market where again we see massive potential for our brand and the sports betting experience that we offer to players. This is a stand-out experience that will allow us to quickly gain market share.
“Competition is stiff, especially with the likes of Unibet and Superbet already live and engaging players, but we believe our offering is a cut above the rest and that with the right strategy, we will be able to match the revenues we are achieving in Bulgaria within the first year.
“Partnerships with the likes of Sepsi FC will really help towards not just hitting that target but surpassing it.”

Thailand Postpones Parliamentary Debate on Casino Bill

A parliamentary debate on Thailand’s Entertainment Complex Bill that had been planned to take place on Wednesday has been postponed until the next session amid rising anti-casino sentiment and concerns the bill is being rushed through.
Thai PM Paetongtarn Shinawatra confirmed that the government would instead focus in the meantime on more pressing matters such as the aftermath of the recent earthquake and how to deal with the impact of the US tariffs.
Passage of the Entertainment Complex Bill has been coming under increasing scrutiny in recent weeks with anti-gambling advocates stating protests and a group of senators voicing their opposition to the speed with which the bill was seemingly making its way through parliament.
That’s despite the addition of a clause requiring locals to hold at least THB50 million (US$1.5 million) in their bank accounts to gain entry to Thailand’s legal casinos – a clause experts say would essentially force international operators to ditch their Thailand casino bids.

BETER Makes U.S. Debut with vendor registration in New Jersey

BETER, the award-winning provider of fast betting content, data, and live streaming, has obtained vendor registration from the Division of Gaming Enforcement (DGE), the regulatory authority in the U.S. state of New Jersey.
This marks BETER’s first regulatory approval in the United States, enabling the company to deliver its real-time data and live streams to licensed operators in New Jersey—empowering them to offer players non-stop, fast-paced betting experiences.
The first product approved by the New Jersey DGE is BETER’s flagship Setka Cup table tennis tournaments, which are already live on the New Jersey domain of tier-one sportsbook bet365, also operating in multiple U.S. states.
BETER arranges over 11,000 Setka Cup matches per month across over 16 arenas worldwide, offering 30+ betting markets per event. All contests are monitored 24/7 by BETER’s in-house integrity team, which is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of fair play and transparency.
In total, the provider organizes more than 46,000 fast betting events monthly across esports and sports disciplines. Its portfolio features ESportsBattle tournaments, which include popular titles such as eFootball, eBasketball, and eHockey, alongside classic sports like basketball, tennis, and table tennis. Additional disciplines are scheduled for release later in 2025.
BETER also provides an Esports Odds Feed which delivers market-leading odds for more than 450 tournaments globally with 40,000+ pre-match and live events each year. Odds are calculated using official data and are compiled by a team of expert traders.
Gal Ehrlich, CEO of BETER, said: “This is a milestone moment for the BETER team, as we see tremendous potential for our fast betting products and solutions in New Jersey and across the U.S.
“We’ve already built a strong reputation as a go-to provider in key markets from Latin America to Europe, and that trust has been instrumental in securing the approvals needed for our U.S. launch.
“Setka Cup has cultivated a loyal following worldwide, and we’re thrilled to introduce it to bettors in New Jersey—and in other U.S. states where we plan to go live in the coming months.”
Valeriia Tarchynska, Chief Legal Officer at BETER, added: “Securing our first U.S. approval marks a significant legal and operational achievement for BETER. Our legal team, in close collaboration with our trusted partner, the law firm Blank Rome, worked tirelessly with the New Jersey DGE to bring this to life.
“But we are not stopping there. We are accelerating efforts to certify our ESportsBattle product for the New Jersey market, while actively pursuing licenses in all U.S. states where gambling is permitted—the key ones, as of today, being Colorado, Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania.”
