Entain Launches Global Innovation Hub, Ennovate

Entain, the leading global sports betting, gaming and interactive entertainment operator, is to launch a global innovation hub, Ennovate, with a first lab to open in London. Ennovate will invest up to £100 million in innovation projects, start-up investments and collaborations with UK, European and global partners, with £40 million specifically earmarked for innovation investment in the UK.
Ennovate supports Entain’s ambition to be a global leader in interactive entertainment, providing great products and moments of excitement for customers. As media, entertainment and gaming converge, customers expect richer experiences, with greater variety of content, immersive experiences, personalisation and social interaction which increase their enjoyment and engagement.
First technology companies working with Ennovate include Verizon, BT, and Theta Labs, all looking to develop ground-breaking experiences for customers in gaming and interactive entertainment. Not-for-profit organisations are also collaborating with Ennovate, using technology for innovations which bring societal and environmental benefit. All external partners will collaborate with Entain’s own tech team and use the Ennovate Hub to conceive, develop, experiment and bring their innovations to life.
“We want to lead the way with new, exciting products and experiences for customers and use our cutting-edge technology to pioneer innovations in sport, gaming and interactive entertainment for the metaverse,” Jette Nygaard-Andersen, Chief Executive of Entain, said.
“We also want to use our position as a global technology leader to help drive innovation more widely. Working with partners around the globe, Ennovate will demonstrate how Entain’s industry-leading technology can both revolutionise experiences for consumers and deliver real benefits to society,” she added.
Ennovate’s first dedicated innovation lab will be located in Charterhouse Square, Farringdon, at the heart of London’s entrepreneurial tech community, close to the UK headquarters of TikTok and Snapchat. It will host members of Entain’s innovation technology team, working alongside its commercial and not-for-profit partners.
Opening this spring, the location is being fitted out with cutting-edge technology, to create a unique environment for building and trialling new entertainment experiences. These will include developing new entertainment products for the metaverse, a virtual reality space where people will be able to interact in a computer-generated environment.
The centrepiece of this and future Ennovate labs will be an Experience Zone, enabling customers, investors, partners and employees to try out new immersive experiences in sport, gaming and interactive entertainment.
“Our goal is to bring the most exciting experiences in immersive sport, gaming and interactive entertainment to life as the metaverse takes shape. Working with partners we believe we can achieve great things faster, both for customers and to apply these technologies and skills to benefit wider society,” Sandeep Tiku, Chief Operating Officer at Entain, said.

Creedroomz Introduces Cashout Blackjack

Creedroomz has launched Cashout Blackjack, a new version of its popular Live Blackjack game designed to redefine player engagement. This major update features a groundbreaking Side Bet Gamble mechanic, a completely redesigned UI and other key enhancements that deliver a new standard of excitement.
The Side Bet Gamble is an industry-first feature that gives players total control over their side bet winnings. Unlike traditional bonus rounds that are passive or tied to specific game events, this optional decision occurs only for players who have won a side bet, right at the end of the round after the last dealer card has been dealt. Players are given a choice: Gamble their winnings for a chance to double their payout, or Skip and keep their original amount. This high-stakes, real-time decision point transforms every win into an exhilarating risk-reward moment.
Cashout Blackjack also includes a suite of powerful updates:
Sleek New UI: A fully redesigned interface built for seamless usability on all devices.
Rebalanced Side Bets: Payouts have been rebalanced to make side bets more compelling and rewarding.
Auto-stand applied on hard / non-splitable scores of 17, 18, 19 and 20.
The new Cashout Blackjack, complete with the Side Bet Gamble feature, is now available to all Creedroomz partners. This launch underscores Creedroomz’s strategic vision to provide partners with groundbreaking tools that ensure they remain at the forefront of the competitive iGaming market.

Onlyplay Releases Gold Oktoberfest Video Slot

Onlyplay has released its latest game Gold Oktoberfest! This vibrant video slot takes you straight into the heart of the world’s most joyful celebration, where laughter fills the air, the smell of grilled sausages drifts through the crowd and every corner glitters with the promise of unexpected treasures. From the very first spin you are no longer just a player – you are a guest of honour at the grand Oktoberfest, with reels that shine like freshly polished beer mugs and symbols that dance with colour and flavour.
The reels are alive with frothy mugs of beer, golden pretzels, hunter hats with bright feathers, shining hops and bursting wursts, each symbol bringing a little more of that irresistible Bavarian charm to your screen. The mascot himself, a cheerful fellow in traditional costume with a hearty laugh and a stein in his hand, welcomes you into the game with warmth and good fortune, reminding you that this is not just a slot – this is a festival of joy, risk and reward. Every spin feels like another toast, another clink of mugs, another chance to step closer to the treasure hidden beneath the foam.
As the game unfolds, the atmosphere grows more intense. You feel the adrenaline rush with every coin that lands, the suspense when the reels slow down, the electricity of risk turning into triumph when the screen lights up with a jackpot win. Mini, Major or even Grand – each prize feels like the ultimate cheer from the crowd, a standing ovation of golden confetti and roaring applause. And when the bonus round begins, it’s like the music swells, the lights grow brighter and the party rises to a whole new level, carrying you on a wave of excitement that never seems to end.

StatRankings Launches with Aim to Deliver Faster, Cleaner, and Smarter Sports Data Experience

StatRankings, the ultimate data hub for sports fans, bettors, and fantasy players, announced the launch of its new website. Designed for speed, simplicity, and privacy, StatRankings helps users make smarter decisions by removing the clutter of outdated, stat sites. With more than 500 NFL data points organized on dedicated, ad-free pages, fans can instantly find the data they need to help set fantasy lineups or put together a betting slip without endless tables, pop-ups, or dashboards getting in the way.
“The sports stats industry has been stuck in the past for too long. These sites supposedly designed for bettors, fantasy players, and media are archaic, cumbersome, and confusing. We are committed to keeping the experience of finding stats as smooth and easy as possible, without all the noise. We want StatRankings to represent a new standard in how sports data can be delivered,” said Kevin Adams, Founder of StatRankings and fantasy sports industry veteran.
In addition to the launch of its website, StatRankings created a partnership with One Week Season, a premium DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports) subscription service that offers content, tools, and community. StatRankings data will be used across shows and articles found on One Week Season’s site for the duration of the NFL season.
“One Week Season is all about teaching people the ‘how’ when it comes to becoming a better DFS player. StatRankings helps us in that mission by making sharper and deeper data more accessible and doing so in a manner that has previously been awkward and downright clumsy. By incorporating StatRankings into our content, we’re able to offer the most optimized insights to our users for their success,” said One Week Season’s CEO Jordan Tohline.
