Nuvei Corporation, tomorrow’s payment platform, announces today that it is extending its partnership with Novibet, a leading European sports betting and online casino operator, to accept payments as it expands globally.

Building on a successful partnership delivering card processing solutions in countries such as Greece, Italy, and Ireland, Novibet is now also offering its players the option to deposit seamlessly and securely using Apple Pay for the first time via its single point of integration with Nuvei. Players will be able to request payouts to Apple Pay as well. Apple Pay’s convenient checkout user experience makes it an attractive deposit option, in particular for returning players that want to upload funds through the quickest possible method.

Novibet is rapidly expanding its customer base across Europe, with accelerated growth in countries across the continent. The operator is also expected to launch in more markets internationally including the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, starting later this year.

Nuvei’s strong heritage supporting gaming companies to expand geographically through its intimate knowledge of local customers and regulations, and a fully customizable cashier to adapt to each market, means it is the payments partner of choice for leading operators when considering how to grow internationally.

Philip Fayer, CEO & Chair of Nuvei commented: “Providing players with the most relevant payments experiences and the ability to grow internationally is at the heart of what Nuvei brings to gaming. Enabling Novibet to add Apple Pay to our card processing solution is a great example of this. Seamless deposits and payouts have been growing in significance for the industry for some time and this trend will only continue.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with Novibet and are very excited about growing together globally this year.”

Konstantinos Andris, COO of Novibet added: “Novibet is one of the most innovative GameTech brands, operating in Europe and soon to launch in America. Adding Apple Pay to our payment options is another example of this. Enabling players to use all the relevant payment methods is critical to maintaining our industry-leading player experience.

“And it is easy to see why Apple Pay is growing in popularity as a payment method. The ease and security of the checkout process is valuable to our players, which is why we are excited that our partnership with Nuvei means that we can offer this in an equally convenient and safe manner.”

With this announcement Nuvei continues to demonstrate why it is the global leader for online payments. Nuvei enables businesses to accept over 550 local and alternative payment methods including Instant Bank Transfer, digital wallets and real-time bank transfers via a fully customizable checkout to suit local consumers across the globe, and has deep regulatory knowledge to support operators as they enter new markets.

The past month marked a pivotal moment in NASCAR’s push toward innovation as NASCAR and nVenue worked to deliver a new way to watch the race. Using nVenue’s in-race betting product to focus on head-to-head matchups, nVenue’s real-time predictive probabilities for each matchup were integrated into the race broadcast.

NASCAR and nVenue have worked together since 2023 and recently reached a multi-year agreement to extend their partnership. As a data partner, nVenue has built a live betting product that allows fans to bet on hundreds of markets during races. nVenue worked with NASCAR to build out live head-to-head markets for each matchup of the In-Season Challenge.

nVenue integrated its proprietary artificial intelligence and machine learning platform for live sports with the In-Season Challenge broadcasts. The integration kicked off during the opening race of the In-Season Challenge and continued throughout the Challenge, delivering a new level of real-time insight directly into the broadcast experience.

At the same time, fans across the world were able to place bets in real-time on head-to-head driver matchups, stage winners, and dozens of new in-race markets, marking a historic first for the sport.

Behind the scenes, nVenue’s commitment to execution was on full display. Co-Founder and Chief Sports Officer, Bruce Sears, was in the production control room for the opening race, working hand-in-hand with multiple teams and resources required to bring the integration to the air.

“nVenue has been a fantastic data partner. One of the great things about nVenue’s partnership is in addition to the live betting product it has built, nVenue has the ability to turn odds into probabilities that can be shown on live broadcasts to further promote fan engagement. This lined up well with the format of the In-Season Challenge, allowing us to provide fans with a way to follow the live probabilities of each matchup throughout every lap of the race,” said Joe Solosky, NASCAR, Managing Director, Sports Betting.

“nVenue’s real-time predictive probabilities came to life during live NASCAR racing to provide a richer experience of the sport, for fans watching, betting, or both. The nVenue platform meets the incredibly demanding speed and precision required for motorsports, but also sets a new standard for fan engagement and in-race betting. It’s a testament to our team’s unparalleled expertise in bringing such complex, data-driven innovation to market at scale. Innovation has only just begun, and we are excited to continue this work with leagues, media, and sports betting to bring these worlds together for the best experiences in live sports,” said Sears.

With broadcast, betting, and data now converging on race day, this collaboration between NASCAR and nVenue is signaling the future of how fans engage with the sport, one lap at a time.
