Compodis, a Dutch-based components distributor, is excited to announce that they have entered a strategic non-exclusive partnership relationship with Compodis, a Dutch-based components distributorTransAct Technologies. The partnership relationship will see the companies dedicate joint marketing and salessales and marketing efforts to better support customers across Europe.

During a difficult time for the electronics component industry, TransAct has managed to rapidly ramp the production up to pre-pandemic levels to meet the unprecedented demand we are seeing today as the gaming industry springs back to life. The partnership with Compodis will help support their efforts by considerably boosting their sales network in Europe.

The TransAct products will complement Compodis’ components portfolio and create an opportunity for them to offer even more comprehensive, high-quality bundles to their clients. As they are also extremely flexible, they will be able stock and supply small-volume, short lead time orders for clients across Europe. They will offer the full range of TransAct gaming printers: Epic Edge, Epic 950, Epic Edge TT and the Epic 888 Roll printer.

Compodis are a one-stop solution provider in the segment of components with a wide network of customers with whom they have formed strong and strategic relationships. They were founded in 2020 by industry veterans Harry Tholenaars and Goran Sovilj. The company has seen amazing growth during a very short but difficult time for the gaming industry. This is a testament not only to Goran’s and Harry’s determination and dedication, but also to their vast knowledge and industry networking potential.

“You often build partnerships on reputation and what you hope a sales partner can offer. Having seen Compodis operate and having worked with both Goran Sovilj and Harry Tholenaars for several years, we already have a huge amount of respect for what they have achieved, what they are currently building, and the growth they are delivering. So, the opportunity to work with them both again at Compodis was an easy decision and an exciting prospect,” says Rob Denham, VP EMEA sales for TransAct. “We are thrilled by the prospect of working with this new dynamic company and help both companies grow together.”

“We are extremely excited to enter this cooperation with a partner that shares our vision of providing high quality products and best-in-class customer service,” says Goran Sovilj, Sales Director at Compodis. “TransAct’s best known award-winning TITO printers and its new Epic 888 Roll printer help us further expand our offering to OEM manufacturers in the gaming and sports-betting segments, as well as casino operators.”

  • Creatopy’s new Live Data feature connects creative assets to real-time data streams, enabling brands to deliver ads that update automatically based on live variables such as odds, pricing, availability or performance metrics
  • iGaming customers experience up to a 20% uplift in first-time depositors in the first 3 months of their campaign
  • Superbet is the latest company to adopt this new feature
  • Initial Live Data release also popular among travel, finance, retail and entertainment sectors
  • This news also follows a series of senior leadership appointments, including: Maikao Grare (CFO), Thibault Imbert (Chief Product & Growth Officer) and Ovidiu Gavril (CTO)
AI-powered ad campaign platform Creatopy has launched Live Data, a new feature that connects creative assets to real-time data streams.
An industry-first solution, it has already demonstrated significant results for the iGaming industry with an increase of up to 20% in first-time depositors observed over a 3-month period.
Live Data enables brands to deliver dynamic online ads that automatically update based on live variables such as odds, pricing, availability or performance metrics. There is no need for manual intervention. Once a design template has been created, the published ad can be updated automatically based on the parameters set. For iGaming companies, this can be a specific game or an entire competition; the tool can also dynamically display stocks and casino games based on current trends and performance.
The new solution offers several key advantages for advertisers, including:
  • Personalisation: allowing for ad delivery that precisely aligns with real-time audience interests, shifting market conditions or changes in available inventory.
  • Real-time performance: displaying up-to-the-minute prices, availability or exclusive offers, which in turn create a sense of urgency and significantly boost conversion rates.
  • Transparent metrics: showcasing verifiable, live information directly within the ad creative – this fosters greater trust and authenticity with consumers.
Superbet, an international gambling company, has become the latest to adopt Creatopy’s tech.
While the initial release focuses on the iGaming and gambling industry, Live Data offers a wide range of applications across various sectors, including Travel with live pricing for flights and hotels; finance with real-time stock movements or FX rates; and entertainment with live streaming stats and event availability.
Tammy Nam, CEO at Creatopy, said: “With Live Data, we’re making ads truly real-time. While static ads have their benefits, they can’t capture live market changes. Live Data changes that. By displaying real-time updates, marketers can expand the lifespan of their campaigns, ensuring that as circumstances change, the ads reflect the most current data and messaging. This isn’t about personalization someday but about delivering the right message, informed by the latest data, at the exact moment that matters most. This continued relevance is a key driver behind the 20% increase in first-time deposits that we’re witnessing with our iGaming customers.”
The launch follows a series of appointments to the company’s senior executive team, including Maikao Grare as the new Chief Financial Officer, Thibault Imbert as Chief Product and Growth Officer, and Ovidiu Gavril as Chief Technology Officer.
With over 15 years of experience in product management and growth at leading technology companies including Picsart, Adobe and GitHub, Imbert is responsible for overseeing product strategy, development and execution, as well as leading the company’s growth initiatives to expand its market reach and impact.
Grare brings over 20 years of experience scaling high-growth startups and is helping to accelerate the company’s momentum, shape long-term strategy, and support international expansion. Most recently, Grare served as Vice President of FP&A and Strategic Finance at MasterClass, and SVP of Finance at Picsart before that. Grare has also held top finance roles at Bolt Threads, Rdio and Skype.
Gavril brings a wealth of tech leadership experience from prominent tech companies, including Raft, Picsart, Trilogy, Jive Software, Crossover for Work, Optivia and Wave Motion Labs. Gavril’s appointment signals Creatopy’s strong commitment to accelerating its technological advancements with AI at its center. As CTO, Gavril will lead the company’s engineering and technology strategy, drive innovation, and expand the platform’s capabilities to further empower marketers with sophisticated AI-driven tools.

The Michigan Gaming Control Board has issued cease-and-desist orders to five illegal online gambling operators—BoVegas Casino, BUSR, Cherry Gold Casino, Lucky Legends and Wager Attack Casino—after discovering they were targeting Michigan residents without proper licenses. These operators are violating Michigan’s Lawful Internet Gaming Act, the Michigan Gaming Control and Revenue Act, and the Michigan Penal Code. The MGCB’s investigations found that these sites have been accepting wagers and deposits from Michigan residents on sports events, slots, blackjack and other casino games—all without the oversight and safeguards required by law. Players using these platforms face unreliable payouts, unfair gaming practices and have no legal recourse in case of disputes.
