Jackpot hits on Book of Mega Moolah with leading operator Betway

Games Global, a leading supplier of online gaming content, has announced that a remarkable €13.5 million was won by a Betway player on Christmas Eve.

The festive surprise, won with a €20 bet, highlights the immense potential for excitement and rewards that the supplier’s jackpot brings to players.

With Book of Mega Moolah™ only being live with operators for three months, it has quickly gained traction as a must-play jackpot slot thanks to its captivating combination of the timeless Mega Moolah™ experience and the classic ‘Book of’ formula.

The game’s popularity is further solidified by this eight-figure win, making it a standout title in Games Global’s diverse jackpot portfolio.

The win marks the eighth-largest online slots prize in history, following a substantial legacy of multimillion-euro wins awarded across Games Global’s wider progressive jackpot offering. This latest Mega Moolah™ win came within just days of a €38.4 million* prize paid out by WowPot!™, another Games Global jackpot, which was the largest ever amount awarded on an online slot.

Mega Moolah™’s success in providing substantial wins and engaging gameplay underscores Betway’s commitment to delivering top-notch entertainment to its players.

This isn’t the first time the prominent operator has seen an eight-figure Mega Moolah™ sum strike on its casino, with one Betway player based in the UK scooping a €17.8 million* prize on the classic Mega Moolah™ slot back in October 2015.

Games Global’s long-established network continues to lead the way in the progressive jackpot space, paying out many of the industry’s largest sums in history and hitting more frequently than any other progressive jackpot offering, with a win struck every 10 seconds on average in 2023.

Andy Booth, Chief Product Officer at Games Global, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to learn of this latest winning experience in conjunction with Betway and on Christmas Eve, no less. We would like to extend our congratulations to the winner and look forward to making more winners throughout 2024 and beyond.”

Anthony Werkman, CEO of Betway Group, said: “Having previously held a Guinness World Record for the ‘Largest payout in an online slot machine game’, we at Betway are thrilled to have seen another customer take home a staggering multimillion-euro jackpot prize, again won on Mega Moolah™, one of our most popular titles.

“As a leading casino operator, we are committed to bringing fresh and exciting titles to our platform in conjunction with Games Global, ensuring our players have a plethora of versatile gaming options and an ever-evolving gaming experience. All of us at Betway wish our warmest congratulations to the lucky customer!”

For prizes greater than $600, Jackpot.com securely delivers the ticket to the winning player to collect their winnings from the Arizona Lottery.

Blockchain’s growing influence

ClickOut Media casts its sports betting predictions for 2025

Published

clickout-media-casts-its-sports-betting-predictions-for-2025

As the sports betting industry continues to evolve, the year 2025 is poised to usher in a wave of innovation, technology and strategic growth. Advancements in technology and data analytics are reshaping the way bettors engage with their favourite sports.

ClickOut Media, the established multi-channel marketing company whose expertise cover multiple niches including the betting sphere, takes a closer look at what the new year holds for sports betting predictions and how players, operators and regulators can prepare for the upcoming changes.

Rise of AI-powered predictions

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has already made its mark on sports betting, and in 2025, its ever-present role is set to expand. At the heart of AI’s influence lies its predictive analytics. Machine learning algorithms are becoming more sophisticated, capable of analysing vast data sets to predict outcomes with greater accuracy. Considering variables such as player performance, team dynamics, historical data and even weather conditions, these systems are providing bettors with increased real-time, data-driven insights. For operators, integrating AI into their platforms will be a game-changer, ensuring that the personalised approach guarantees users recommendations that align with their preference and risk appetite, transforming every bet into a bespoke experience.

Expansion of micro-betting

Micro-betting, the ability to place bets on specific moments within a game, will also see its presence within the landscape grow over the next 12 months. This will be particularly true in markets such as the US where sports betting is maturing as a product. With the proliferation of 5G and faster internet speeds, real-time micro-betting is becoming increasingly seamless which aligns directly with younger bettors who favour a dynamic and engaging betting experience. AI again makes its mark within this forecasted shift, with an ever-growing number of analytics platforms using the phenomenon to provide real-time data and predictions, allowing bettors to make informed decisions as games are unfolding.

Emergence of esports

When we think of sports betting, traditional sports like football, basketball and horse racing usually dominate the conversation. However, esports is no longer a niche market, rather a mainstream betting category with its influence set to experience a continued upward trajectory in 2025. Millennials and Gen Z, the digital natives, are leading the charge in esports betting with both groups not just watching esports, but actively participating, placing bets and engaging in fantasy leagues. According to a 2023 report by the Esports Integrity Commission, more than 70% of esports bettors are under 35. As more betting options emerge, driven by technological innovations like AI, mobile apps and cryptocurrency, sportsbooks are likely to expand their esports betting options to cater for a vast tech-savvy, youthful audience.

Blockchain’s growing influence

Originally created for the financial sector and trading of digital currencies, blockchain has been growing its reach in recent years with the sports betting sphere a market of particular interest that is set to make considerable strides in 2025. Sports betting has always been surrounded by a layer of controversy and risk of corruption. Blockchain technology has the potential to revolutionise the industry by offering greater transparency, security and fairness to players. Smart contracts, which automate payouts based on match results, are expected to gain steady adoption. A greater number of betting platforms will continue to also accept cryptocurrencies, putting more trust in the hands of bettors with no sharing of personal data required like bank account numbers or credit card details. User safety will also be strengthened through the reduction of data breaches and identity thefts that are linked to standard payment channels.

The sports betting industry in 2025 is set to be more dynamic, data-driven and user-centric than ever before. With innovations like AI, blockchain and micro-betting leading the charge, both operators and bettors will benefit from a more engaging and transparent ecosystem. For operators looking to stay ahead, focusing on technology, user experience and responsible gambling will be key to success. ClickOut Media, in its role as a global marketing and content company, remains committed to providing invaluable insight and coverage on the evolving and exciting developments as 2025 unfolds.
