Pollard Banknote Limited announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to purchase 100% of the business of Clarence J. Venne LLC (Venne), a leading manufacturer of bingo markers utilised primarily in the charitable gaming bingo market.

For over 60 years, Clarence J. Venne LLC has manufactured the world’s finest and most innovative line of bingo markers (also known as dabbers or daubers). Venne’s products are sold in every bingo market throughout North America, as well as in 23 foreign countries. The founder and namesake of the company, the inventor of the bingo dauber, instilled a culture of company pride, product innovation and customer-first principles that have endured throughout the last six decades since Venne’s founding in 1962.

“We are very excited about bringing the Venne team into our organization and believe it will be a great combination with our existing charitable games group. The bingo market is an important component of charitable gaming, and providing an expanded product offering to existing and new customers is a critical element of our strategic plan. We believe the Venne team brings valuable years of expertise and superior bingo products to the Pollard Charitable Games Group. Venne will be a key addition in helping us remain a leader in this space and we are honoured they have chosen to join us,” John Pollard, Co‐Chief Executive Officer of Pollard Banknote, said.

Steven Fingold, EVP of Charitable Gaming at Pollard Banknote, said: “Venne has long been the industry leader in bingo daubers and we’re thrilled to have them join our charitable games group. With their expertise and deep understanding of the bingo market, together we’ll be able to provide attractive options to distributors and retail customers to expand and grow their bingo operations. This acquisition further illustrates Pollard Banknote’s ongoing dedication to the charitable gaming market and our commitment to expanding our leadership role through both organic growth and acquisitions.”

Jeff Fischer, owner of Venne, said: “We could not be happier to join one of the leading suppliers in the charitable gaming space. Our organizations share a similar culture and focus on innovation, and I look forward to seeing Pollard’s team expand Venne’s business as it continues to provide excellent products and solutions for charitable organizations.”

ICONIC21 has rolled out three limited-edition Football Cup-branded casino games and launched its first network tournament, ICONIC Showdown Football Cup, running from 9th of July to 19th of July.

The new titles are Football Cup Roulette, Football Cup Blackjack 360, and Football Cup Gravity Blackjack. ICONIC21 said the releases showcase different customisation approaches, including green screen production for the roulette environment and an updated visual rebrand for its RNG blackjack table.

For Football Cup Gravity Blackjack, ICONIC21 said it used its latest LED technology and applied the Gravity Series multiplier mechanic, with a custom felt, a football gate, and bespoke 3D-printed decorations.

Alongside the three new games, ICONIC21 pointed to its previously launched slot Soccer World Championship, plus The Kickoff and Top Card, which it said received football-season branding and UI/UX updates.

The ICONIC Showdown Football Cup tournament covers 11 games in total and is positioned around the quarter finals, semi-finals and final period. ICONIC21 said 1,000 winners will share a €50,000 prize pool, and operators can enroll via their account manager or by contacting the company directly.

Edvardas Sadovskis, Chief Product Officer at ICONIC21, said:

“What I’m most proud of with this project is the turnaround. We built three fully branded, technically distinct games, enhanced existing ones with promotional branding, and launched our first-ever network tournament around them, all timed to coincide with peak player interest and traffic.

That kind of speed doesn’t happen by accident, it reflects how this team works. ICONIC Showdown is a meaningful first step for us as a provider, and launching it during the Football Cup, with this much energy around the game, feels like the right way to do it. We’re genuinely excited to see how the leaderboard shapes up and even more excited for the finals.”
