Scatters Club Streamers Awards 2025: The Show You Can’t Miss
Alright, gaming fam, buckle up — because the biggest and wildest streamer showdown of the year is about to drop! On February 27, 2025, the Scatters Club Streamers Awards is going live, bringing together the funniest, craziest, and most legendary content creators, fans, and gaming pros for a night of pure streaming madness. If you haven’t already circled the date in bright neon ink, now’s your cue!
And in case you’re new here, let’s get one thing straight — Scatters Club Streamers Awards is the first-ever online awards show dedicated to the streaming community in gambling. This isn’t just about who wins — it’s about celebrating everyone who makes this world thrive. That’s why this year’s theme is loud and clear: Award FOR Everyone.
More Than Just an Awards Show
This event isn’t about fancy speeches and slow music. It’s for the community, by the community, and the numbers tell the story better than we ever could. A jaw-dropping 3,730 nominations poured in, leading to an intense battle among 643 contenders before we finally narrowed it down to 50 finalists. Fans showed up in force, smashing that vote button 5,750 times to push their favorites forward. And let’s not forget categories that got everyone talking — 1,854 entries for “Most Hilarious Reaction to a Win” and 326 stream queens fighting for the Best Female Streamer title — because nothing beats a good over-the-top celebration.
But beyond the numbers, this event is about the people — 60 behind-the-scenes masterminds who built this show from the ground up, the 9 tireless moderators who kept everything fair, and of course, the one and only Mauro Craia, who landed the dream job as the official stream-watcher (yes, it’s a real job, and yes, we’re all jealous).
Competitions That Keep the Energy High
While the awards are the heart of the event, there’s plenty of action to go around. Some of the most epic rivalries are playing out across categories like Most Hilarious Reaction to a Win, Most Bright Reaction to a Lose and Best Streamer Collaboration — because when two streamers team up, the results are always legendary.
But the competitions aren’t just for streamers. If you’ve ever submitted a nomination and it was accepted, you’re already in the running for a slice of the $10,000 prize pool, because that’s exactly what’s at stake in the Wheel of Fortune. This electrifying moment will see lucky participants take their shot at spinning the wheel, where every prize.
Making Streaming Dreams Come True
This year, we’re not just recognizing streamers — we’re making dreams happen. Through the Dreams Come True initiative, we asked streamers to share their boldest ambitions, whether it’s launching an insane new content series, upgrading their setup to pro levels, or bringing a game-changing idea to life. Now, the top submissions are in, and it’s up to the fans to decide which dreams will become reality.
On February 27, we’ll reveal the winners live, making at least three of these dreams come true. These aren’t just minor upgrades — we’re talking about major transformations that could change the way these streamers create, entertain, and grow their communities. Whether it’s building the ultimate streaming studio, kickstarting a groundbreaking content format, or unlocking opportunities that once felt out of reach, this is about making the impossible possible.
Get Rewarded Just for Watching
If you thought this was just about the streamers, think again. We’re making sure that everyone who tunes in has a chance to win — and yes, that means you! This year, we’re introducing the Bingo Game, adding an extra layer of excitement to the show.
Throughout the stream, 12 to 13 numbers will appear — hidden in dialogue, graphics, and those blink-and-you-miss-it moments. Spot them, write them down, and once you collect four in a row, type “Bingo!” in the chat. The first to do so wins cold, hard cash. We’ll have 1 winner — each scoring $500. It’s simple, fast, and pure adrenaline.
This Is Your Show — Don’t Miss It
Scatters Club Streamers Awards isn’t just another event—it’s a celebration of everyone who makes the streaming world what it is. Whether you’re a die-hard fan, a rising streamer, or just someone who loves the thrill of gaming, you’re part of this, and we want you there.
So, are you in? Whether it’s for the epic showdowns, the chaotic surprises, or the prizes that could land in your lap, Scatters Club Streamers Awards 2025 is THE event to watch.
February 27, 2025 – Don’t just write it down. Set a reminder. Cancel your plans. Order snacks. Get HYPED.
The countdown is ON!
Because remember — this is the Award FOR Everyone.

Africa
QTech Games wins Best Innovation of the Year at the 2025 SBWA+ Eventus Awards

Emerging-markets aggregator scoops prestigious prize at key West African summit in Ghana
QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for all emerging markets, has won the “Best Innovation” award at the Annual Sports Betting West Africa (SBWA+) 2025 Summit in Ghana, fending off strong competition from other leading lights.
Innovation of the Year celebrates the company that has pioneered innovative solutions tailored for the West African igaming industry over the past 12 months – and QTech Games again superseded and surpassed an array of proven performers in this category, notably Blask, ComplyGuard, PopOK and Sumsub, with the successful launch and rollout of QTech Hybrid.
These SBWA+ Eventus Awards always recognise excellence and advancements in the West African igaming and sports betting sector. And this year was no different, celebrating a plethora of pioneers from outstanding operators, through progressive technological innovators and regulatory leaders, and on to distributors with the requisite scope and localised expertise to reliably ensure the provision of the most engaging and varied content for the planet’s second-most populous continent.
These are some of the most consequential categories of igaming activity, denoting progressive domains that are shaping the industry’s future across Africa. And the SBWA+ judges found that QTech Games had outperformed its shortlisted rivals in this competitive arena for the judging period of 2025.
QTech Games’ CEO, Philip Doftvik, said: “We’re thrilled to have walked off with another notable award for the best innovation in West Africa. Being shortlisted in such good company was already a result, but victory provides the real validation, particularly after running a great campaign across recent summits in Africa.
“We know our QTech Hybrid solution works wherever our clients set their scene on the map. In Africa, for our pilot partners, it’s already delivered an agile retail solution that can be transferred to your phone, so that the customer can continue playing after leaving the premises or retail point. Encouragingly, it’s already attracting many early adopters and plaudits, especially in Africa and Spanish-speaking territories in Central and South America.
“This win is testimony to our diligent team at QTech Games, and to the constantly growing group of innovative suppliers that our platform represents. It’s a truly collaborative effort. We’ve made our name as the go-to distributor for emerging markets and we remain committed to rolling out high-quality content that drives revenue for our worldwide partners across Africa and beyond.”
