“It’s great for raising our profile, of course, but more importantly it’s fantastic recognition for the expertise, hard work and talent of our team.
“We’re thrilled to again be nominated in categories relating to cryptocurrency as this is a highly skilled specialism in which we have led the way for some time. It’s great to receive this continued recognition.
“However, we are particularly proud to be shortlisted for in the customer service category, as our dedication to our clients underpins our philosophy and approach to work.
“The nominations are also further acknowledgment that the Isle of Man is at the epicentre of some of the most exciting and forward thinking industry trends as we continue to lead the way globally on crypto, blockchain and igaming. “We are looking forward to the ceremony and are up against some tough competition but hopefully we can come back with another award to add to our success in 2019.”

The integration of Zoom Soccer is facilitated by Logifuture’s existing collaboration with Aristocrat Interactive. Through Aristocrat’s digital gaming platform, Logifuture is bringing its sophisticated products to millions of players across emerging markets, including Africa, Eastern Europe, Latin America and Central America.
Niccolo Cassettari, Chief Business Development Officer at Logifuture, said : “We’re thrilled that sports fans in Mexico will now be able to experience Zoom Soccer, our 24/7 feed of virtual leagues built for sportsbook users. Offering both pre-match and in-play betting, it delivers an experience that closely mirrors real football, keeping users always engaged.
