The Polish company GAMIVO is constantly improving its platform while coming up with more and more original promotions for its users. This time, gift cards worth 10 euros and additional bonuses in the game World of Warships are waiting for players. The promotion is aimed at novice World of Warship fans because in order to receive the prize, you need to create a new account and win 10 random battles in the game.

GAMIVO has achieved numerous highly successful collaborative promotions with major brands including Coca-Cola, PayPal, Żabka, and the aforementioned Wargaming. The fruitful outcomes from these three partnerships have prompted the companies to prepare for another joint venture, building upon their past triumphs.

The new action organized by GAMIVO and Wargaming launched on July 24 and will run until August 31, 2023. It is aimed at players from across the European Union who have not yet had the opportunity to play World of Warships. The prizes include a €10 gift card for shopping at GAMIVO and additional bonuses in the game itself. To win these, you need to achieve your first 10 victories in random battles, unlocking the “Amateur” achievement.

Last year, GAMIVO, alongside brands such as Hewlett-Packard, Cooler Master, Displate, Windscribe, and Discord Nitro, was a partner in a treasure hunt organized by Wargaming. At the time, the most successful players could also win a gift card for purchases on the GAMIVO platform. The treasure hunt turned out to be very popular with gamers.

The joint promotional activities are very stimulating for the further growth of the GAMIVO platform. The company has already made it possible to buy games with points from the Coca-Cola app (in Croatia and Slovenia) and regularly cooperates with Żabka on a similar basis. The company’s list of partners also includes game developers. In addition to the aforementioned Wargaming, this segment is represented by Plarium, for example.

“Developers of games or gaming hardware are, of course, natural partners for us. They know the market and its needs well, which makes it easier for us to cooperate with them. This is why our collaboration with Wargaming thrives, as we persistently discover innovative methods to provide players with exciting promotions. However, we try to think outside the box and look for partnerships outside the gaming industry, such as Coca-Cola, Żabka, or PayPal”, explains Paweł Zemka, CRO of GAMIVO.

GAMIVO already has 5 million registered users, most of whom are from Europe and North America. Thanks to the high quality of service and continuous development, the number of people using the platform is growing steadily. The company has had a financially excellent, record year and continues to strive for further growth. Revenues totaled more than PLN 44.2 million in 2022, an increase of 11 percent year-on-year. GMV indicator (turnover) also increased, amounting to PLN 232 million, up 15 percent year-on-year. Most notable, however, is the net profit of nearly PLN 7.1 million, up 115 percent year-on-year.

Stake, the world’s largest online casino, today announced the launch of Stake Engine — a next-generation Remote Gaming Server (RGS) built to give developers the tools, infrastructure, and audience they need to succeed on their terms.

Backed by the technology behind 300 billion bets and a global community of over 20 million players, Stake Engine offers an instant path to revenue with full end-to-end game development tools and the most developer-friendly commercial model in iGaming: 10% GGR (Gross Gaming Revenue), paid monthly.

Whether you’re an indie creator or a full-scale studio, Stake Engine offers everything you need to build, deploy, and grow games on your terms.

Studios are already winning.
Over the past 12 months, games built on Stake Engine have generated $3.31 billion in turnover. In the most recent quarter, three titles ranked among Stake’s top 50 games by total bets: Massive Studio’s Jawsome at #17, Serpentina at #23, and Twist’s Samurai Dogs Unleashed at #25.

Who can build?
Any developer. From math devs and indie studios to full-stack teams, if you can design and deliver engaging games, you’re welcome here.

What can you build?
Anything your imagination allows. Slots, wheel mechanics, card-based logic, original IP, Stake Engine has no templates, no restrictions, and no gatekeeping. If it plays well and meets our standards, you can build it, launch it, and own it.

Why build on Stake Engine?
Stake Engine gives developers everything they need to launch faster, without the barriers that slow down traditional game development.

No need to build your own infrastructure, negotiate publisher deals, or spend months integrating with legacy Remote Gaming Servers (RGS). With Stake Engine, you can go from idea to live game in days.

Stake handles the infrastructure, distribution, and visibility, so you can focus on what matters: building great games. There’s no pitching, no storefront politics, and no delays.

Behind the scenes, Stake Engine powers everything with a full front-end SDK, integrated math engine, balancing toolkit, and real-time analytics dashboard — putting real performance data at your fingertips.

And once your game goes live, you get paid monthly, with 10% GGR royalties and zero lockups.

  • Stake Engine is built by developers, for developers. Created by the engineers behind some of iGaming’s top studios, it is focused on speed, control, and fixing everything broken about legacy game launch processes.

  • Stake also handles all positioning, marketing, and growth — giving developers full visibility and freeing them to focus purely on building great games.

Brais Pena, Chief Strategy Officer at Easygo, the technology powerhouse behind Stake, said: “Stake Engine is built for creators, with speed, freedom, and scale baked in.”

“Stake Engine is more than just infrastructure, it’s a launchpad for the next generation of iGaming creators. We’ve taken everything we’ve learned building the world’s most popular online casino and packaged it into a platform that removes barriers, unlocks creativity, and delivers scale from day one.”

PENN Entertainment Inc. announced plans for an expected $180–$200 million project to relocate its Ameristar Casino Hotel Council Bluffs (Ameristar) riverboat casino operations to a new, state-of-the-art land-based property to be rebranded as Hollywood Casino Council Bluffs (Hollywood Council Bluffs). The proposal is approved by the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission in conjunction with a 15-year extension of Ameristar’s partnership with the nonprofit Qualified Sponsoring Organization (QSO) Iowa West Racing Association. All commercial operators in Iowa are required to have an operating agreement with a QSO licensed to conduct gaming operations.

Under the proposed plan, the new Hollywood Council Bluffs is expected to include roughly 125,000 square feet of new development with approximately 58,000 square feet of gaming space. The new facility will complement the existing ESPN BET sportsbook, 160-room hotel and dining options in the landside portion of the current infrastructure. The existing riverboat, which presently offers gaming spread out over three levels, will be vacated upon opening of the new property.

“We are pleased to add another landside relocation to our pipeline of development projects. This project will enhance the quality and efficiency of our Council Bluffs location and significantly improve the property’s competitive positioning in the greater Omaha market. PENN’s diversified portfolio of casino properties is core to our omni-channel approach to entertainment, which combines our best-in-class retail operations and a database of more than 32 million PENN Play members with our robust interactive and media footprint. We thank the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission for their approval today and are grateful for the continued collaboration with our partners at the Iowa West Racing Association,” said Todd George, Executive Vice President of Operations for PENN.

“We are thrilled with the exciting development plans for the new Hollywood Casino Council Bluffs. For nearly thirty years, the Ameristar riverboat has been providing not only dining and entertainment, but thousands of jobs and millions of dollars in support of our community. PENN’s commitment to reinvesting in Council Bluffs is laudable and we are grateful for our ongoing partnership,” said Brenda Mainwaring, President & CEO of the Iowa West Racing Association.

Construction of the new facility is expected to take approximately 18-24 months following the design and permitting approval process. The Company is entitled to obtain financing for the project from Gaming and Leisure Properties Inc. (GLPI) of up to $150 million at a 7.10% cap rate, which may be structured at PENN’s option as either rent or a 5-year term loan that is pre-payable at any time without penalty.
