His goal was to see why one table in Malta operated worse than the others. 4 months ago, I signed with the CEO of Live Casino. His dream outcome: Decrease financial losses at one table. We achieved that. But not the way you think we did. Here's the exact 3-weeks framework: Before working with us, he had many winning players. - It was taking a lot of time to recover from winnings. -- Especially for a freshly launched casino operator. So in the 1st week of working, we fixed that. - We had our team study table rounds. -- We framed a better betting concept. --- The CEO agreed and changed table limits. Boom. One game rounds were fixed in the first 72 hours. But there was more to it. Next 2 weeks, we checked remaining games: - all rounds' results for each table - players betting patterns, - integrity analysis All games had one simple flaw in common. → Betting time We reduced betting time by 5 seconds. (more rounds = more revenue) It's amazing how in 3 weeks, the CEO went from: - I need to decrease financial losses at ONE table to - I grew by 35% in revenue at EVERY table with you PS. 5 weeks ago I added a 1:1 Power Hour (to consult providers and operators on Fraud). You should pick a slot with me too if you: - Stress over winning players - Want to improve game quality - Need a free advice from a certified fraud team

iGaming Industry Developments and Compliance: As someone leading the compliance at one of the world's biggest iGaming casinos, I’ve witnessed firsthand the dynamic shifts in legal and regulatory landscapes globally. The online gambling market is projected to reach an impressive $132 billion by 2027, highlighting the remarkable growth of our industry.💫 This expansion reflects the increasingly global nature of iGaming, driven by factors like smartphone usage, broader internet access, and innovative games and technologies. Interestingly, compliance and regulation, often seen as barriers, are actually paving the way for iGaming to enter markets that have traditionally resisted it. Operators in the iGaming sector now offer a variety of deposit and withdrawal options. Players can easily choose from debit and credit cards, eWallets, and even decentralised currencies. Cryptocurrency transactions are gaining popularity thanks to their transparency, security, and speed. Today’s iGaming platforms prioritise security more than ever. Reputable operators implement robust measures, including SSL certification to authenticate websites and thorough know-your-customer (KYC) processes to verify users’ identities. These practices are vital in building public trust and fostering a safer gaming environment. 💫 Operators are increasingly seeking clear and effective legislation that meets international standards. I am collaborating with various regulators worldwide to highlight the importance of developing more productive and prescriptive regulations. Our goal is to foster a safe gaming environment while eliminating unnecessary bad actors from the industry. By working together, we can ensure a healthier, more responsible landscape for all stakeholders involved. 💥

This report comes as no surprise: 🎰 Malta's gambling industry accounts for 16% of Malta's entire business economy 💸 This can be seen from two different angles. On one hand it is great that after 20 years, the iGaming industry is still thriving in Malta. On the other hand, those who are cynical might say that the country is too over-reliant on one specific industry. Having been in this industry almost right from the start, I've seen the multiple benefits that iGaming brought to Malta: mainly job creation and value added to the economy 💹 These are great benefits, but with all the fluctuations in the global iGaming market, regulatory changes and other external factors, we can only hope that relying too heavily on this sector will not be detrimental for Malta in the long-run. In total there are around 12,000 people employed in this sector here in Malta (5.3% of the entire workforce), therefore many rely on this industry to keep going strong for many years to come 💪 What do you think? 🤔 You can find the full article by Times of Malta here 👉 https://lnkd.in/de_kN358 #iGaming #iGamingMalta #Malta #Economy #Gambling #GamblingSector

An interesting conversation about match-fixing with Francesco Baranca Which region is most vulnerable to fixed matches? Which sports are the most common and easiest to fix? How can match-fixing be detected? My favorite part: "We had a lot of cases in the summer in Finland, that has a very low corruption index, but after analyzing the squad of the teams involved we can see that mostly of the players were coming from Ukraine or Brazil. So actually no one place can be considered at zero risk on match fixing, it can happen everywhere because all matches are offered. Couple of days ago we had on the same day episodes in Russia, Ukraine, Israel and Palestine, four countries involved in war and where match fixing doesn’t stop during the war."

Tournaments, as a part of User Journey in Сasino Operators, and how they are tipycally arranged.  All of them have some advantages and can be used by Operators for activities, Players engagement and overall Financial results Growth. Casino Operators can hosts 3 types of tournaments: 1) Networks - tournaments organised and financed by the game provider. Any Casino Operator that the Game Provider cooperates can take part in such a tournament. The main Feature of this type of tournament is that the conditions are not adapted to a specific market, and thats not a good story. For example, the minimum bet in a tournament may be too high for a market where people have a low income. Or some missions within a tournament is based on Turnover, that also not in a favour of low income regions. But this tournaments are easy to participate for Operators. On the early stages of Casino Operators growth or for some small regions - good thing to have! 2) Local tournaments - tournaments that Operator initiate on Operators' side, but conduct on the Game Provider's tournament tool. This type of organisation is optimal. Unfortunately, not all Game Providers have a advanced tournament tool with interesting mechanics, or the ability to customize the tournaments for a specific market. Still, this tournament type might give Casino Operators pretty good, customised approach for bringing fun to the players and engage them to play more and have cool time within the games. Getting some nice prizes and of course - promote GAMES from some specific Game providers.  This tournament type is financed in a shares between Casino Operators & Casino Game Providers. 3) Manual local tournaments. The third type of tournaments that Casino Operators often conduct. Responsibility for organising such a tournament is entirely with the Casino Operators. The teams prepare the design, Terms&Conditions, landings, etc.  These type of Tournaments if 100% for the Casino Operators cost, but allow to have as much mechanics and missions and prize pool verity as it can be.

The Hellenic Gaming Commission shed light on the phenomenon of illegal gambling in Greece in 2023. This nationwide field study involved 5,814 individuals across all 13 regions, encompassing mainland and island areas, as well as urban and rural settings. Data was collected through personal interviews using the CAPI system between January 4 and February 16, 2024. The study revealed that nearly 1 in 10 individuals in Greece had engaged in illegal gambling over the past 12 months, constituting around 10.4% of the population. On average, players spent €1,194 annually on illegal online gambling sites and €738 on illegal land-based gambling. Concerning the risks associated with illegal gambling, individuals evaluate these based on various factors highlighted in the research: - Inability to collect earnings or lack of transaction guarantee - Exposure to risky situations linked to borrowing or usury - High risk of financial loss - Absence of player protection and mechanisms to resolve disputes - Limited control over setting personal limits like deposit, loss, or time limits - Risk of fines and penalties - Lack of clear terms and conditions The study underscores the multifaceted nature of risks perceived by participants in the illegal gambling environment, emphasizing the need for awareness and preventive policy measures. I hope the survey results could be proved useful to anyone who is willing to involve on the matter. Please, feel free to ask, share and/or comment on the survey. Any contribution would be valuable for future additions and improvements.
