First Look Games platform will increase visibility and connect Kalamba to over 20 million casino players

B2B casino games supplier Kalamba Games has partnered with leading affiliate platform First Look Games. The deal will ramp up the distribution of game information and increase visibility with affiliate outreach on its rich portfolio of game content.
First Look Games is the ultimate platform for game studios to connect with iGaming affiliates with its community collectively boasting over 20 million casino players around the world. It gives publishers in the affiliate space access to accurate game information, assets and content approved for use direct from the studios.
Kalamba Games says the partnership will help it leverage its affiliate efforts in the most efficient way possible, increasing exposure for new titles, such as the newly released Rumble Ratz MegawaysTM and forthcoming titles, Fruitmax Caslinez and Machina Reloaded MegawaysTM.
The partnership will give Kalamba access to the innovative First Look platform, which already has direct access to more than 800 approved affiliates.
Kalamba Games was formed in 2016 with a mission to disrupt the igaming market through a powerful combination of innovative content and promotional tools. Today, it is more than just a leading development studio. It has become a technology provider and distributor via its own BullsEye RGS, offering distribution and promo tools with a focus on regulated markets.
Gareth Dando, Kalamba Games marketing director, said: “As we continue expanding, having targeted control of what we communicate to the affiliate ecosystem is crucial for us, and First Look Games is the platform to deliver that. It manages the heavy lifting of affiliate outreach while adding a comprehensive and responsible way to promote games to players. From our point of view, this takes affiliate marketing to the next level and there’s nothing else in the industry that can do that.”
Tom Galanis, managing director at First Look Games, said: “We’re delighted that Kalamba Games has chosen First Look Games. It’s an established brand with an exciting pipeline. We look forward to helping support them maximize their potential with more exposure via the industry’s most comprehensive affiliate marketing hub.”

Independent evaluation highlights impact of Ygam’s parent programme

An independent evaluation has provided compelling evidence that Ygam’s work is effectively equipping families with the tools and knowledge to safeguard children from gaming and gambling harms.
The evaluation report, conducted by Sherbert Research, examined Ygam’s programme tailored for parents and carers, which includes online workshops, resources, and the Family Hub website.
The evaluation, assessed against Ygam’s comprehensive Theory of Change, found ‘strong evidence across all groups’ of increased understanding of gaming and gambling harms and their impact on behaviour change and the wellbeing of children and young people. It also highlighted that parents regard Ygam as a trusted source of support and information on these subjects.
After attending a Ygam workshop, parents expressed a deeper understanding of their role in supporting children and young people on these issues. The workshops were credited with reducing stigma around gaming and gambling harms and encouraging greater engagement from families. Many parents reported proactively understanding the risks and feeling empowered to start conversations with their children about gaming and gambling, putting boundaries in place before harm occurs.
While parents and professionals are increasingly aware of the risks associated with gaming, fewer recognise children’s potential exposure to gambling and gambling-like features, along with the related harms. The report reinforces that Ygam’s work plays a vital role in closing this critical knowledge gap through awareness raising, offering effective safeguarding tools, and providing the guidance and support required to create a safer digital home environment.
The programme was also commended for shifting perceptions around video gaming and microtransactions. They described taking immediate proactive steps such as adjusting screen time, understanding app spending, and setting clearer rules around their child’s online habits.
One parent who took part in the evaluation said: “After the session, I checked my son’s gaming account and realised he had spent over £200 on in-game purchases. We talked about it, and I’ve now set up parental controls.”
The high quality and standard of Ygam’s educational content was also praised by parents, with many describing it as ‘one of the best’ workshops they had attended for addressing a topical and complex issue, and for delivering accessible knowledge that supports real-life action.
Another parent said: ” A friend mentioned Ygam after I shared concerns about my son’s gaming habits. She had been on the course and said it had really helped her understand how to manage screen time”.
Claire Patel, Programme Lead for the Parents and Carers programme at Ygam, said: “We welcome the findings of this evaluation, which highlight the widespread and meaningful difference our programme is making for families. Parents and carers know their children better than anyone, and they have a crucial role to play – but they consistently tell us they often feel under-informed in today’s fast-moving digital world. We remain committed to listening to families and providing the information and tools they need to promote healthy habits and safeguard their children from potential harms.”
The evaluation was informed by interviews and video diaries from parents, foster carers, and professionals who attended Ygam workshops between 2023 and 2024.
All recommendations for improvement will be incorporated into the ongoing review and development of Ygam’s programmes to ensure they remain as effective and impactful as possible.

GR8 Tech Launched the Champion’s Playbook for High-Performance iGaming Brands

When ESPN Bet crashed during 26% of March Madness game time, it proved what heavyweight operators already know: that level of downtime is unthinkable—and expensive. When you’re processing millions of bets during a single event, every second of uptime and every millisecond of speed directly impact your bottom line.
That’s why GR8 Tech created the Champion’s Playbook for High Performance—distilling lessons from processing billions of bets per year into a tactical guide for operators who refuse to accept ‘good enough.’
Inside the guide, operators will discover:
- Three pillars of high performance: the non-negotiable standards for uptime, speed, and scalability that separate champions from contenders—plus the specific benchmarks that matter.
- From heavyweight performance to champion experiences: how to transform solid infrastructure into engaging, personalized player experiences while protecting margins from churn and fraud.
- A hard-hitting due diligence checklist: ready-made questions to evaluate your current provider or efficiently eliminate unsuitable candidates from your shortlist.
“After hundreds of conversations with operators, I know exactly what’s broken in the industry. The checklist cuts through the sales pitch to the questions that actually matter. Use it on any provider, including GR8 Tech. The answers will separate the real heavyweights from the pretenders,” says Yevhen Krazhan, CSO at GR8 Tech.
Why this matters now
The iGaming landscape demands excellence. Players expect 24/7 availability, lightning-fast responses, and experiences that feel built just for them. Meanwhile, 70% of businesses struggle with poor data quality, and mobile users abandon sites that take longer than 3 seconds to load. In this environment, technical mediocrity isn’t just disappointing—it’s expensive.
Ready to perform like a true iGaming heavyweight?
Download the Champion’s Playbook and start building your path to high-performance dominance.
