Confut USA and BetExpo join forces to provide a unique experience, bringing together speakers and professionals from the global football and iGaming industries in a single event, which will take place on June 11th and 12th, at the Hilton Miami Downtown.

Over the course of two days, participants will have the opportunity to explore topics such as sports betting, market trends, technological innovations and business opportunities.

Arthur Lobo, CEO of Confut, commented on the partnership: “The partnership with BetExpo represents a strategic merger of two industries that go hand in hand: football and iGaming. This move not only expands the diversity of content at the event, but also creates an ecosystem that is conducive to generating business between companies in the betting sector, clubs, leagues and other stakeholders. In addition, it promotes fundamental discussions on regulation, technology integration and best practices in the market.”

In addition, Pedrão Bet, CEO of BetExpo, also stated how positive the union of the two events will be:

“The partnership between BetExpo and Confut represents a strategic union of great impact, combining expertise, innovation and joining two sectors that are rapidly expanding in the global market.”

For brands looking to activate their business in these two markets, Confut USA and BetExpo offer exclusive business opportunities and experiences.

Winlandia.com, the online casino brand with a distinctly Nordic feel, has made its debut in Canada as it continues to expand its reach into international markets.

Winlandia is celebrating ten years of Nordic excellence and is now available for Canadian players, with its website available in both English and French.

Canadian players will get a real sense of Finnish Sisu when they sign up to Winlandia for the first time with a generous welcome bonus that is up for grabs.

When it comes to depositing, Winlandia has a well-stocked cashier including Visa, Mastercard, MuchBetter, Paysafecard, Payz, AstroPay and of course, Interac.

Players can expect instant deposits and fast withdrawals, so they get their winnings without delay.

The cool Nordic vibes extend to the online casino lobby where players can explore a vast portfolio of more than 9,000 slot, table, instant win, bingo, Slingo, arcade and live dealer titles.

Just some of the providers available include Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Microgaming, Red Tiger, Play’n GO, Blueprint Gaming, IGT, Scientific Games, Nolimit City and Evolution Gaming.

Winlandia players will be able to benefit from its Personalization Platform that was implemented at the beginning of last year. This means players will get individual game recommendations based on real-time data, a bit like Netflix but for casino games, not movies.

Canadian players can also enjoy some of the most generous promotions in the market, including Daily Picks which sees free spins and other bonuses added to their account each day.

They can also take part in thrilling slot tournaments and go head-to-head with other players and where if they place high on the leaderboard, there are big prizes to be won.

Winlandia is powered by SkillOnNet and has quickly emerged as a top online casino brand in competitive markets such as Finland, Denmark and the UK.

The team behind the site is confident that Canadian players will be drawn to its comprehensive offering and unique Nordic flavour.

Winlandia has extended its collaboration with its premium affiliate partner, Gambling.com, as their exclusive launch partner for the Canadian market. Via their site assets like Gambling.com/ca, players will get an exclusive offer of 100% up to $5,000 + 150 Free spins on Big Bass Bonanza.

Christoffer Grönlund, Head of Acquisitions & PR at Winlandia, said: “Players in Canada can now enjoy an authentic Nordic online casino experience that includes thousands of casino games from the biggest providers offered alongside generous bonuses and promotions. 

“Despite being an international brand, localisation is very important to us and that’s why we implemented the payment method Interac to our cashier and ensure we have the most popular game providers for the Canadian market in our game lobby. 

“Canada is a big market and one that we are incredibly excited to enter this market together with our Premium Affiliate Partner Gambling.com/ca. We truly believe that their high volume of quality traffic of players will enjoy what we have to offer at Winlandia.” 

Gary Connelly, Senior Key Account Manager at Gambling.com Group, added: “I’m excited to welcome Winlandia Casino  as they prepare for their Canadian launch. 

“With 10 years of Nordic excellence and trust, a standout design, and an impressive portfolio of over 9,000+ games, Winlandia is well-positioned for success in this market. Following strong results in the UK, I look forward to a successful partnership in Canada, where their fresh player base offers great conversion potential.”
