ProgressPlay takes new standalone product to Asia
ProgressPlay, renowned as one of Europe’s Top 10 Casino Tech Solutions Providers in 2024, is set to make waves in the Asian iGaming sector with its groundbreaking standalone product. Making its debut at SIGMA Asia 2024 in Manila, ProgressPlay aims to captivate attendees with its innovative offerings showcased at stand BR917.
With ProgressPlay’s new standalone product, partners are able to market all markets.
SIGMA Asia, slated to run from June 3rd to 5th at Manila’s esteemed SMX Convention Centre, has already generated immense anticipation within the industry. With a diverse array of top-tier B2B and B2C exhibitors, including ProgressPlay, the event promises to be an unrivaled gaming hub, expected to attract over 20,000 delegates.
The Asian iGaming industry is experiencing exponential growth, fueled by technological advancements and a surge in demand for online gaming experiences. With the widespread adoption of mobile devices and digital payment methods, coupled with the popularity of online gaming, the sector presents lucrative opportunities for gaming entrepreneurs seeking to establish their presence across the continent, starting with a standalone solution.
Marina Nahhas, Sales and Marketing Manager at ProgressPlay said: “We are super excited making our debut at SIGMA Asia with our latest products. Our standalone product has huge potential for local markets and the exhibition gives us an excellent opportunity to present it to a large number of potential new customers.”
ProgressPlay’s standalone licensee offering made its debut at ICE back in January, and in this arrangement ProgressPlay serves as the technology provider while partners take charge of all their own operations.
ProgressPlay’s platform has been meticulously developed over the years, boasting a team of top-notch professionals dedicated to serving regulated markets including the UK. The platform is fully equipped to meet all the diverse requirements, many of which are proprietary services developed in-house.
Notably, ProgressPlay’s platform boasts proprietary AI capabilities for safer gambling shortlisted in the EGR Awards, setting it apart in the industry. Moreover, the platform offers unparalleled flexibility, enabling operators to tailor their offerings to specific regions and regulatory requirements. Through a strategic joint venture with a reputable cashier, ProgressPlay facilitates seamless integration of various payment methods, catering to the diverse needs of its partners.
ProgressPlay CEO Itai Loewenstein said:“The biggest advantage of the standalone platform is that it enables operators to have a much wider selection of countries and regulatory territories to choose from based on the licenses they hold and the built-in proprietary cashier that is easily adapted to the relevant markets and payment processors. An additional advantage for operators is the ability to create brands under the standalone platform, which is especially helpful in generating healthy ROI in Asian markets which we will be showcasing on stand BR917 at SiGMA Asia.”

DigiPlus Officially Incorporates Singapore Hub to Power Global Growth

DigiPlus Interactive Corp, the Philippines’ leading digital entertainment company, has taken a step forward in its international growth strategy with the official incorporation of DigiPlus Global Pte Ltd in Singapore.
Fully owned by Diginvest Holdings Inc, a 100% subsidiary of DigiPlus Interactive, the newly established DigiPlus Global will serve as the company’s international hub—driving its global ambitions through strategic partnerships, talent acquisition and corporate support. The entity is formally registered under Singapore’s business activity classification for head and regional offices, acting as DigiPlus Interactive’s centralised administrative and management office.
While the Singapore entity will focus solely on regional support services, it will not operate any gaming platforms in Singapore, in full respect of the country’s regulatory framework.
“This is not just an expansion; it’s a foundational step in our growth strategy. By anchoring our international presence in Singapore—one of the world’s most advanced business ecosystems—we are accelerating DigiPlus’ transformation into a globally recognized force in digital entertainment,” said DigiPlus Interactive Chairman Eusebio Tanco.
The move enables DigiPlus to deepen its access to global expertise, strengthen cross-border collaboration and build high-value relationships in key markets. It will also accelerate the company’s ability to pioneer the next wave of digital entertainment innovations as it continues to grow its digital platforms—BingoPlus, ArenaPlus and GameZone—which already dominate the Philippine market.

Macau Govt Appoints Ng Wai Han as Director of DICJ

The Macau Government has appointed Ng Wai Han, who was serving as Director of the Public Administration and Civil Service Bureau (SAFP), as Director of the Macau Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau (DICJ).
Ng had served as head of the Public Administration Bureau since September 2023, following a three-year stint as Deputy Director.
Between 1999 and 2020, Ng rose through the ranks of the Labour Affairs Bureau (DSAL) to the position of Deputy Director.
With this appointment, the reshuffling of DICJ’s leadership team is now complete. The position of Director had remained vacant since 20 December last year, when her predecessor, Adriano Marques Ho, became Director General of the Macau Customs. Deputy Director Lio Chi Chong had been serving as Acting Director in the interim.
Lei Seak Chio, who, like Ng, previously worked at DSAL, was appointed one of DICJ’s Deputy Directors in February, replacing Peter Chui.
