We are Betinvest: The talent behind the technology
Speaking ahead of ICE 2020, Betinvest COO Max Dubossarsky outlined the company’s plan to launch We are Betinvest, a project which sheds light on the teams of people behind the brand.
What has inspired Betinvest to share the stories of its team members and their many different areas of specialization?
For over 20 years of working in the industry, we have always found that our most valued resource is our team. It is thanks to their professionalism and talent that new products and solutions are created, and different ways to promote our services are developed. It is our employees who are changing the industry with their day-to-day work. And the result of their hard work is reflected in the high market value of our product, the reputation of the company, and the loyalty of our clients. Our team is the main driving force behind the business.
Because we are striving to develop the industry as a whole, we have decided to speak openly about the internal workings of our business. And so, the aim of our project We are Betinvest is to introduce you to the different departments within the company, in terms of the professional and personal qualities of our employees alike. We believe that this will broaden understanding of the complex internal processes of our business: at what stage of a project are different teams involved, what issues do they deal with, and what is their overall contribution? With this project, we hope to raise awareness of all the job descriptions in the gambling industry amongst our followers on social media and show them that Betinvest is all of us, and each and every one of us.
Where can we follow these stories and how will you share them? Can you tell us which department will be first up?
The We are Betinvest project will be launched in February, straight after ICE London, and can be followed on our official Facebook and LinkedIn profiles. Every team of specialists will be featured in the publication series, starting with an introduction to the team at the very heart of our sports betting business: the traders. We hope that readers will find this interesting and informative.
Follow us on social media and give us your feedback. We’d love to hear from you!
How important is it that companies hire candidates who are the right fit for the team?
Of course, it’s very important that everyone fits in, and does what they do best and what they’re passionate about. So, as well as having a thorough selection process, we do our best not to lose our professionals when they decide they want a change of direction: we help them do so within the company. Each of our employees is able to develop not just within their own job role, but also to change specializations and departments.
In terms of recruitment, let’s take as an example our team of traders. We have a special training program and system of career progression within the company for new employees. But from the outset, potential traders must have a good working knowledge of maths and the theory of probability, and they need to enjoy sport and have a deep understanding of certain sports in particular. When part of an experienced team, all of this knowledge will be transformed into a professional skillset. But in this line of work, a love of sport is a real necessity.
Each and every one of our employees is valued, not just as professionals in their area and as individuals, but as members of the team. That’s why it’s also important to us that new employees become part of the Betinvest family, share our values and corporate culture, and stay with us for as long as possible.
What does Betinvest do to cultivate a productive environment to allow its talented specialists to thrive?
A large part of our lives is spent at work, and we understand the importance of corporate culture, and an office environment that facilitates productive work and recreation. I also mentioned earlier that we always listen to our team’s wishes to learn and develop, and we provide opportunities for them to fulfil their potential in a variety of projects within the company. This has a direct effect on satisfaction levels.
Studies have shown that people are more productive at work and take their work more seriously if they get on well with their colleagues. We facilitate this by organizing team building events – both for department teams and interdepartmental. Friendly relations within a company break down barriers, increase efficiency, and make our time at work more enjoyable.
An important part of the work carried out by our HR department is the professional development of our team. So, as well as employee benefits which include insurance and access to a gym, we offer our employees extra training through professional courses, workshops, and training sessions.
And, of course, we make sure the office has everything it needs so that it is both a comfortable working environment and well suited for recreational time.
Can you define the Betinvest culture in less than 140 characters? How does this translate to a top-quality product and service for clients?
We place great importance on values such as flexibility, openness, innovation, and professionalism.
This is reflected in and defines our products and services. With our experience in the industry and the range of sports betting solutions we offer, we are a single entry point into the gaming industry for our clients.

Vegangster Gives Operators Real-Time Jackpot Control and a New Revenue Stream with Sharedluck’s JackpotX
Platform provider Vegangster has completed the integration of JackpotX, a flexible jackpot engine developed by Sharedluck, giving operators a new way to run scalable jackpot campaigns across brands and game catalogues. The integration focuses on player-contribution jackpots, creating an additional revenue stream for operators.
JackpotX provides more granular control than traditional jackpot tools. Operators can configure several jackpot tiers, define custom triggers, and adjust campaign parameters in real time without downtime. This makes it easier to launch targeted campaigns quickly and align jackpots with specific retention or promotional objectives.
With the integration, Vegangster clients can manage jackpots directly inside their existing back office. Campaigns can be linked to selected brands, game groups, or specific player cohorts, with real-time performance insights available through Sharedluck’s dashboards. This helps teams monitor engagement, track contribution levels, and optimise campaigns while they are Running.
For players, jackpot values update in real time across all touchpoints, including lobby displays, game interfaces, and promotional banners, creating visible momentum as prizes grow. This transparency drives catalogue exploration and extends session time, giving operators a practical tool for supporting both short-term promotional bursts and longer-term engagement Strategies.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, said:
“Jackpots remain one of the clearest levers for engagement in online casinos. Sharedluck built an engine that offers operators the level of precision and flexibility they expect from modern tools. With JackpotX inside Vegangster, teams can run customised jackpot campaigns at the speed their operations require.”
The partnership brings Sharedluck’s jackpot engine directly into Vegangster’s ecosystem, giving operators a straightforward way to deploy contribution-based jackpots and track performance through real-time analytics.
Chris Scicluna, Co-Founder at Sharedluck, said:
“We are excited to bring JackpotX to Vegangster operators. In successful campaigns, we have seen higher retention, longer session times, stronger conversion from casual to regular play, and clear uplift in VIP-focused promotions. We look forward to seeing Vegangster clients achieve similar results.”
The integration is now available for all Vegangster operators. Existing clients can enable JackpotX through their account manager, with configuration handled inside the Vegangster back office and supported by Sharedluck’s analytics dashboards. New operators can access the module during onboarding as part of their standard setup process.
Operators can get a closer look at JackpotX at ICE Barcelona, Fira Barcelona Gran Via, 19–21 January 2026, with live demos available at stand 1E20.

Games Global and Fortune Factory Studios wrap up 2025 with supercharged sequel Gold Blitz Express™
Games Global and its exclusive studio partner, Fortune Factory Studios, have launched a high-voltage finale to 2025 with Gold Blitz Express
, the latest iteration of its dynamic franchise.
Building on the proven popular foundations of its predecessors, Gold Blitz Express retains the titular cash collect mechanic and bonus choice, but amps up the sequel with a brand-new Blitz Express feature and deeper bonus progression.
The Blitz Express mechanic is activated when a train symbol lands on reel six on any spin. A train steams across the reels pulling up to 20 carts, with each awarding a cash prize or one of four fixed jackpots, the total value of which is collected and awarded.
The studio has also elevated Gold Blitz spins with the introduction of an Accumulation Trail, which collects each Blitz symbol that hits. Every third collected awards additional spins and an increasing multiplier, with up to 14 spins and a 5x maximum multiplier, surging win potential.
Supplementing the action further is the integration of Games Global’s Rising Rewards jackpot, where every coin boosts the prize pot up to 200x, which can be randomly paid out.
The Gold Blitz series continues to define industry trends from a player control perspective. In addition to the bonus choice and bonus buy options, a Win Booster doubles the likelihood of activating features, while Bonus Recharge offers an opportunity to purchase an extra spin following feature completion.
Gold Blitz Express represents the latest evolution of one of the industry’s most diverse, battle-tested game franchises, spotlighting Fortune Factory Studios’ continued commitment to creating products that perform.
Alexander Monsma, Team Manager, Game Sales at Games Global, said: “2025 marks the fourth consecutive year that we have unveiled a Gold Blitz game toward the end of December – it is the perfect way to ring in the new year.
“Gold Blitz Express is the most feature-rich upgrade to date, electrifying the environment with even more variety and potential.”
David Reynolds, Director of Games Strategy & Partner Management at Games Global, added: “The Gold Blitz brand remains one of the strongest franchises in our portfolio, and Gold Blitz Express builds on that success by extending the series with genuine depth. The introduction of new elements, such as the Blitz Express feature, feels like a natural evolution of the brand.
“It’s a fitting way to close out 2025, with the continued performance of the series reflecting Fortune Factory’s ability to create games with lasting appeal and sustained engagement. We can’t wait to showcase our upcoming lineup within this franchise and more as we enter 2026.”
