EveryMatrix JackpotEngine gains MGA approval
EveryMatrix gamification solution JackpotEngine, that provides brands with the power to add a configurable jackpot layer to any game, has received a Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) approval.
MGA approval will enable EveryMatrix to offer and integrate its innovative product to potentially hundreds of Malta-licensed brands.
JackpotEngine, integrated via EveryMatrix productivity platform CasinoEngine, is a complete Jackpot Management System that allows operators to seamlessly create, configure and control their own jackpots for any selection of games across any casino vertical and player segment significantly boosting acquisition and retention rates.
The product boosts acquisition and creates an incentive for players to remain loyal to a brand for increased retention and lifetime value. Each game round offers additional excitement with more chances to win for prolonged game sessions.
GAME ROUND AND BET SIZE UPLIFT
A comparison of game session metrics for two like-for-like EveryMatrix customers examining games before and after they were assigned to a JackpotEngine powered jackpot has shown extremely positive results, with the number of rounds per session increasing 25% and 11% and average bet amount climbing 30% and 50% respectively.
Built for regulated markets JackpotEngine offers the possibility to remain fully compliant where traditional bonusing is either limited or not an option.
Operators have complete control over the selection of games where a jackpot is offered as well as player segmentation, winning probability, seed amounts, winning cap, contribution distribution, and the split of contribution funding between operators and players, while also accessing real-time monitoring and reporting of jackpot transactions.
Stian Enger, Head of CasinoEngine, EveryMatrix, said: “The testing we’ve done in the first phase of release has shown exceptional uplift in game rounds, session times and bet size so we’re confident JackpotEngine will be a game changer.
“I’m delighted with the MGA approval and this will significantly boost the product’s roll out in the months to come.”
JackpotEngine is available to EveryMatrix operators either via CasinoEngine, or pure B2B aggregation solution SlotMatrix and its entire library of content, including 140+ integrations from 250+ game studios across multiple verticals.

Washington’s Lottery Achieves Nation’s Highest Level of Responsible Gambling Certification

Washington’s Lottery announced that it has achieved the highest level of responsible gambling certification in the country. As acknowledged by the National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG) and the North American Association of State and Provincial Lotteries (NASPL), Washington’s Lottery officially was certified for “Responsible Gambling Verification Best Practices at the Sustaining Level” in December 2024, the culmination of a process that began with certification at the Planning Level in 2019 and Implementation Level in 2021.
Washington’s Lottery is only the third state lottery in addition to Virginia and Ohio to achieve this milestone. NCPG and NASPL also recognize nine other state lotteries that have achieved a similar certification through the World Lottery Association.
“I can’t begin to express how proud I am of the work our team has done to achieve this important standard. We have a unique obligation as a state agency that sells a gambling product and need to balance the goal of raising money for important state initiatives like education with the need to acknowledge and assist the small percentage of players who may experience gambling-related distress. We take that work very seriously and weave it into all aspects of our jobs,” Kristi Weeks, Director of Legal Services for Washington’s Lottery, said.
To receive the Sustaining Level certification, Washington’s Lottery was evaluated by a team of four independent experts, who reviewed the lottery’s efforts in eight key categories related to responsible gambling: planning, employee training, retailer training, public education and awareness, product oversight, research, advertising, and resources.
“The key to our success has been the integration of responsible gambling initiatives into each and every employee’s position rather than centralizing it into only one or a few positions,” Weeks added.

Network 10 Breaches Gambling Ad Rules During Formula 1 Grand Prix Broadcast

Network Ten has been found in breach of broadcasting rules after airing gambling advertisements during the australian Formula 1 Grand Prix in March 2024.
An Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) investigation found four gambling ads were aired at prohibited times during a broadcast of the first practice round of the Grand Prix.
Under the Commercial TV Code of Practice (the Code), gambling promotions cannot be shown during broadcasts of sporting events between 5am and 8.30pm, including the five minutes before and after the event.
Authority member Carolyn Lidgerwood said the rules around gambling advertisements on TV are there to protect the community from gambling related harms.
“Broadcasters should have strict controls in place to ensure compliance with the restrictions on gambling ads during sporting events,” Ms Lidgerwood said.
Practice rounds and qualifying rounds for motorsports are subject to the same restrictions on gambling advertising as the main event itself.
This is the first breach by Network 10 of the gambling advertising rules in the Code. During the investigation, Network 10 submitted that the broadcasts occurred due to human error.
Following the ACMA’s breach finding, Network 10 voluntarily improved the planning, checks and balances it has in place for ad scheduling and has, at the ACMA’s request, agreed to review its processes to introduce additional quality controls.
Network 10 will also train staff to avoid similar issues in the future and will provide a written progress report to the ACMA.
In a separate investigation in 2024, the ACMA found that streaming service 10 Play, provided by Network 10, breached online gambling advertising rules during two live-streamed sports events.
“The ACMA will closely monitor these actions and Network Ten’s compliance with the broadcasting and online gambling advertising rules,” Ms Lidgerwood said.
