Boylesports has taken its first steps in the transition from print-to-digital with the launch of its first digitally-led betting shop in Louth, Ireland. The shop in Drogheda becomes Boylesports first to roll out the new interactive Racing Post Digital Betting Shop Display (BSD). The refit saw the shop expand floor space and install numerous new screens and SSBTs. While, impressively, the store now includes 10 interactive screens showcasing Racing Post horseracing and greyhound data.

The Racing Post BSD has been a mainstay for bookmakers since its launch more than 20 years ago and the new screens showcase the same great content in an interactive format. With the new touchscreens, Boylesports customers are able to compare the detailed form for horses side by side.

Boylesports customers can also avail of Racing Post coverage from South Africa, UAE and Hong Kong, while the screens also showcase full virtual racing cards. For more casual racing customers, the new interactive touchscreens display key Racing Post content, including Verdicts and Spotlights so customers can make informed betting decisions.

At the launch of the digital display, Boylesports, Head of Retail Marketing, Michael Simpkin discussed what a step forward the digital-first shop was for the business.

He said “We’re absolutely delighted with how the shop looks and we’re sure our customers will be just as thrilled when they step in store. This was our very first shop in the Republic of Ireland so it’s rather apt and a proud moment that it is now our very first digital shop in Ireland.  We’ve transformed the shop into a digital-led store with a huge advancement in technology throughout. This includes the installation of 10 new 50’’ screens showcasing Racing Post content from around the world”.

Simpkin went on to discuss how important  it was that Racing Post was included in the tech transition.“The Racing Post Betting Shop Display has been on every Boylesports wall across Ireland for as long as our shops have been open. It’s a key cog in the horseracing betting decision. We know how vital it is for our customers to see Racing Post content available in our shops and we’re delighted with how it turned out. Their rich content is just as good on the new screens as it is in the paper and of course, even clearer in large-screen format.  I’m really looking forward to introducing customers to it over the coming weeks.”

Alan Pepperell, Retail Director of Racing Post, expressed his excitement at the continued roll-out of the Racing Post Digital Betting Shop Display.

“The past few years have seen a shift in focus for the overall retail landscape as more and more stores move to a more tech-led approach. We know the newspaper has wallpapered betting shops across the UK and Ireland for over 20 years but we’re excited about our new interactive screens. Michael and the team at Boylesports have been great and the new store is state of the art, we’re excited for Boylesports customers to avail of Racing Post content in the best way possible.’’

On the advancing tech behind the Racing Post display, he added:  “The tech in the displays is second to none and we’re committed to going above and beyond to give customers more content than ever before. Being able to give full form, and verdicts on all UK and Irish racing as well as international racing, greyhound and virtuals in-store, at the touch of a button means punters are armed with the best information to help make their selection.”

RubyPlay’s US Playbook – Turning compliance into a growth engine

Published

After securing entry into its second US state, and with a third firmly in sight, RubyPlay is sharpening its compliance strategy to balance speed with precision. Amanda Slonzon, VP of Compliance and Regulatory Strategy, explains how the company’s US Playbook is helping to turn regulation into a growth engine, from leveraging New Jersey as a benchmark, to preparing for Pennsylvania’s unique challenges, and building trust-based relationships with regulators and partners across the industry.

When people think about compliance in the US iGaming industry, they often imagine it as the handbrake that slows expansion and stifles innovation. For me, it is the opposite as compliance sits in the driver’s seat. It is not simply a support function but a product in itself that enables us to grow faster, enter new markets with confidence and strengthen our relationships across the industry.

The US online casino market is both highly promising and highly fragmented. Only seven states currently regulate iGaming and each has its own framework. Navigating this landscape requires a deep understanding of both the common threads between states and the subtle differences that can make or break a market entry.

This is why we have developed a US Playbook at RubyPlay, which is a detailed, in-house framework for understanding and applying state-by-state requirements in a way that is tailored to our products and infrastructure. With it, our compliance and regulatory specialists break down each regulation, interpret it in the context of our business, and share that knowledge across the company.

 

Market comparisons

New Jersey will always be the starting point for most operators and suppliers entering the US. It was the pioneer of state-level regulation and, in many ways, still sets the standard for others to follow. Meeting New Jersey’s requirements ensures a company is well-prepared for other states, many of which recognise its certifications. Delaware, for example, places direct reliance on New Jersey approvals, a pragmatic approach that can streamline entry for those already licensed in the Garden state. But even with these efficiencies, each state demands its own level of preparation and adaptation.

Regulators in the US take compliance very seriously and ensure that every technical aspect of a business meets their requirements. Unlike some EU markets, where providers may not need a B2B license, every US state requires B2B licensing through a thorough, state-specific process. While major shifts are rare, when they occur they can significantly impact the industry. Right now, sweepstakes is the most talked-about development, and with New Jersey’s Governor having recently signed the ban into law, we are seeing a wave of prohibition that will have a major impact across the industry. Our role is to remain attentive, follow changes daily, and ensure we stay as compliant as we intend to be.

Every state also has its own technical standards, licensing requirements, tax structures, and approaches to product approval. For example, Pennsylvania applies the highest tax rate on operators in the country yet remains one of the most attractive among operators. It also has a deeply ingrained gaming culture and a large, active player base. Entering a state like Pennsylvania, which is a key target for RubyPlay in 2026, is not just about passing compliance checks but more about understanding the regulator’s expectations, the market’s economic realities and the cultural context of its players.

 

Fostering close relationships

One of the most important aspects of operating in the US is the strength of relationships with key stakeholders across the entire ecosystem. I have always believed that a strong relationship with the regulator is just as critical as meeting their requirements on paper. We work to ensure that regulators see us as partners who bring solutions, not problems. We communicate openly and demonstrate that we take their rules as seriously as they do. The same process applies to how we work alongside our industry partners. From platform providers or operator customer, we approach every partnership as a collaborative effort to succeed together.

Culture plays a vital role in how we approach regulation. Compliance is considered a technical discipline, but ultimately it is powered by people who care about getting processes and frameworks robust. I am proud to lead a team that is collaborative and solution-oriented. One of my proudest moments recently came during a recruitment process where I was speaking with a candidate for a role within our compliance team. She told me she had been following RubyPlay closely and was so impressed by our company culture, the pride we take in our work and the way we treat our people, that she was willing to relocate to another country just to join the team. It is a real story that speaks to the environment we have built.

Regulation in the US is not going to advance overnight. The state-by-state approach will remain and evolve, and new product categories will emerge that challenge existing frameworks. My perspective is that the companies who thrive will be the ones who embrace this complexity, invest in understanding it deeply, and treat compliance as a strategic asset rather than an operational hurdle.

The US Playbook we have developed is our way of making that happen. It is an ever-evolving strategy that keeps us compliant, competitive and ready for whatever comes next.
