The Partnership will provide a bridge to those leaving the Forces through professional skills, industry education and technical vocational training. As part of the agreement those who leave the Forces and join FTG will then become eligible to join Rubik Talent’s Academy for Sales or Technology. Through this Partnership, the organisations aim to develop meaningful skills, support positive mental health and inclusion in the workplace.    

Robin MacDonald, Rubik Talent Co-Founder said:-    “We are thrilled to be partnering with the Forces Transition Group to offer career opportunities to Veterans through our Academy. High growth, tech-based industries like iGaming, Payments and FinTech are all suffering from a lack of talent. This Partnership will provide access to highly skilled, dedicated professionals who are serious about their careers and supporting the industries we serve. On the flip side, ex-services men and women will have the opportunity to take the next meaningful step in their journey”

John Stephenson, Forces Transition Group Founder said:- “It is with great pleasure that The Forces Transition Group (FTG) welcome a top-quality organisation in Rubik Talent to our fantastic audience of service leavers, veterans, and spouses. The legacy we must provide for the future is to create an Exit Strategy for every single person that serves their country and for their families.

“The FTG are delighted to include and provide opportunities in Gaming/IT/Recruitment/Sales across the UK to a cohort of brilliant individuals who have skills that are untouched and not understood through their partnership with Rubik Talent.

“The IT world as we all know is huge but the potential of service people in this arena is uptapped and being missed. Sixty percent of those who work with the FTG have a technical background, aligning them perfectly to these great opportunities. It is imperative that we provide an easy and clear path from the military to business.

Say hello to LazyBar, Allset Partners’ brand-new online casino brand. Launched only 2 months ago and already available in five major gaming locations in Europe, namely Spain, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Poland, LazyBar is already off to a flying start. 

“Our sights are set high and we have ambitious plans for the future. Our goal now, however, is to see LazyBar get to €1,000,000 in GGR by the end of 2024. We also plan to keep growing our list of European GEOs.” — Allset Partners

A peek at LazyBar: 9500+ popular games from over 70 game providers

Traffic to LazyBar comes mainly through media buying teams using Facebook, SEO, email campaigns and PPC. 

The Allset Partners team have extensive experience in attracting iGaming traffic which is why creating their own brand seemed like the obvious and logical next step. As a white label online casino solution provider having launched several popular online casinos, Extendy was their primary choice. Launching an online casino brand includes managing all the extensive, major operational processes such as licensing, integrating game providers and payment solutions, as well as integrating all the necessary online casino infrastructures such as a CRM system, player support and VIP player support programs.

When it came to scaling LazyBar, the first step was to attract organic traffic and build a pool of players able to generate profit. Extendy’s CBDO, Ayvar Gabidullin explains that casinos created on the Extendy platform usually experience payouts within 5-6 months.

“When we launched our partner, Allset Partners, we initially determined a list of five countries to which all the traffic would go. However, seeing just how keen and active Allset were, we saw it best to roll out further GEOs. It was then that they really began to perform. The team is already showing results in Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Poland.

Overall, launching LazyBar in such a short time is a huge achievement for both teams. I am confident that at this rate, Allset Partners will not only achieve their goals by the end of the year, but will surpass them by a significant margin.”

Super Group (SGHC) Limited, the parent company of Betway, a leading online sports betting and gaming business, and Spin, the multi-brand online casino, announced third quarter 2024 unaudited consolidated financial results.

Neal Menashe, Chief Executive Officer of Super Group, said: “We achieved our strongest third quarter ever, highlighting the phenomenal progress we are making as a business. There is still tremendous potential as we experience super growth across our global casino brands, and particularly in Africa which we have scaled to be our largest region for the second quarter running. Given our continued strong performance and robust balance sheet, we are exploring ways to return excess cash to shareholders, and intend to discuss with the board a possible further special dividend before the end of the year.”

Alinda van Wyk, Chief Financial Officer of Super Group, said: “This quarter was our best ex-US third quarter ever, achieving total revenue of €395 million and Adjusted EBITDA of €95 million. We are focusing on consistent growth in our key markets, while striving to maximize operational and marketing cost efficiencies across the group, which resulted in a margin of 24% for the second quarter in a row – well ahead of our long-term target of 20%. Following the strong performance of the business over the first three quarters and an early look at a strong October, we are increasing our ex-US Adjusted EBITDA full-year 2024 guidance to be greater than €345 million.”

Financial Highlights:

Revenue increased by 13% to €402.9 million for the third quarter of 2024 (constant currency: 15% to €410.9 million) from €356.9 million in the same period of the prior year, driven by growth from the Africa, Europe and North America (predominantly Canada) markets partially offset by declines from the Middle East and Asia-Pacific markets.

Profit for the period was €8.5 million for the third quarter of 2024. Profit for the period of €10.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 included a non-cash charge of €14.2 million related to the change in fair value of option liability.

Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP measure, increased by 60% to €83.9 million for the third quarter of 2024 compared to €52.5 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Monthly Active Customers increased by 17% to 4.7 million during the third quarter of 2024 from 4.0 million in the third quarter of 2023.

Cash and cash equivalents was €296.6 million at September 30, 2024, up from €241.9 million at December 31, 2023. This net increase during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was the result of:

Inflows from operating activities amounting to €159.1 million;

Outflows from investing activities of €59.2 million. This was mainly as a result of further investment in tangible and intangible assets of €63.6 million, predominantly due to the capitalization of expenditure on software, issuance of a loan to Apricot Investments Limited of €10.0 million, deferred consideration paid of €2.5 million relating to the 15 Marketing Limited acquisition and cash paid of €2.0 million for an investment in associate. These outflows were offset in part by €9.2 million of consideration received from the sale of the B2B division of DGC, as well as €9.2 million resulting from receipts of interest and repayment of loans receivable;

Outflows from financing activities of €51.9 million, mainly due to dividends paid of €46.1 million and lease payments of €5.7 million; and

A gain of €6.7 million as a result of foreign currency fluctuations on foreign cash balances held over this period.
