Irish Bookmakers Shut Their Doors Again to Wait for Further Government Guidelines
Irish bookmakers have closed their doors once again and waiting for further guidance for reopening from the government.
Bookies opened their doors on June 15 after months in lockdown due to the coronavirus. However, they have closed their door once again due to the specification that bookies should not reopen until June 29.
The companies say they are waiting for the go ahead from the government before they reopen again.
A Ladbrokes spokesperson said: “I can confirm that we have not opened our Ladbrokes shops in Republic of Ireland today whilst we seek clarity from the Government on the recently updated guidance.”
A Paddy Power spokesperson said: “Paddy Power shops opened yesterday, in line with other bookies in Ireland, following the Government guidelines on re-opening of retail outlets.
“All our shops have detailed operational protocols in place in all shops to ensure that social distancing and other public health requirements are met in full in the interests of colleagues and customers.
“During yesterday, we became aware of a Government specification that bookies should open on June 29th.
“Hence, we took the decision to close our shops from this morning until we have the green light to go ahead.”

New Slotegrator solution offers fastest time to market in iGaming
Slotegrator’s One-Click Casino, a preconfigured, ready-to-run iGaming business solution, now offers the fastest time to market in iGaming, with new projects ready to launch in as little as five business days*. The company will demo the new solution at stand S44 at iGB L!VE on July 1-2.
Slotegrator’s One-Click Casino, a preconfigured turnkey online casino platform, is now the fastest solution available to operators looking to start an iGaming project. One-Click Casino cuts the launch timeline for new projects to as short as five business days* with the use of backoffice presets. A demo of the new solution will be available at iGB L!VE on July 1-2, at the company’s stand, S44.
New operators choose turnkey solutions in order to accelerate their launch; however, the client is still responsible for configuring many aspects of the platform. The new One-Click Casino shortens the timeline even further with preconfigured projects featuring unique frontends based on player preferences in different markets and regions, making for a faster and more cost-effective launch.
One-Click Casino has presets for bonus systems, payment service providers, anti-fraud triggers, game content, and more, though the frontend is still customizable. The launch timeframe assumes the operator is already licensed. License acquisition can extend the timeline, but Slotegrator also offers license acquisition services.
“One-Click Casino removes many of the barriers that operators face when starting a new online casino,” says Maksym Shtun, product owner at Slotegrator. “Speed and flexibility are everything in iGaming. By preconfiguring so much of the backend, we’ve made it faster and easier than ever for new operators to start their project.”
An extensive launch timeline can sink a project, as every day that passes without generating revenue is a drain on investment. Operators can easily spend substantial sums before the first bet has even been placed, due to the costs associated with license acquisition, platform setup, developing a team, and integrating games and payment systems.
One-Click Casino has four types of available bonuses, with thumbnails, amounts, and wagering, as well as a Wheel of Fortune and cashback, including preset percentage and activation triggers. Multi-level loyalty programs are also available, as well as game categorization, such as new, top, and bonus-eligible games.
The solution’s preconfigured anti-fraud system includes behavior and IP analysis, as well as automatic multi-accounting checks at registration. Bonus preconfigurations include bonus group limits based on player profiles, mandatory verification before bonuses are awarded.
As an added bonus, the solution includes a preconfigured Telegram bot, to run an alternate frontend through the popular encrypted messenger app.
One-Click Casino is ideal for entrepreneurs who are looking to launch a new iGaming project but are put off by the costs, technical complexity, and launch timeline, such as operators of crypto or Web3 projects who’ve built a community but need a way to monetize it.
*Final timeline depends on client’s technical readiness, chosen market of operation, and licensing status.

Altenar to Showcase UK-Focused Sportsbook Solutions at iGB L!VE London 2026
Leading sportsbook provider Altenar will attend iGB L!VE London 2026 to meet with industry stakeholders and discuss the challenges and opportunities shaping one of the world’s most mature and competitive regulated gambling jurisdictions.
According to the latest data published by the UK Gambling Commission, online real-event betting generated £530 million in Gross Gambling Yield (GGY) during Q4 2025, underlining the scale of the UK’s regulated sports betting sector and the ongoing demand for high-performance sportsbook products.
Against this backdrop, operators are under increasing pressure to differentiate their offering, maximise player lifetime value, and remain fully compliant with evolving regulatory requirements.
Altenar’s sportsbook is designed to address these challenges through flexible technology, advanced trading capabilities, localisation tools, and a comprehensive suite of engagement and retention features.
The platform enables operators to launch and scale efficiently while delivering tailored betting experiences that resonate with UK audiences.
Giannis Papakonstantinou, Account Management Director at Altenar, said:
“The challenge in the UK is no longer simply entering the market. Operators need to acquire players efficiently, retain them for longer, and remain fully compliant in an increasingly demanding regulatory environment. Our role is to provide the technology, flexibility, and operational expertise that help partners achieve exactly that.
“Every operator faces different challenges, whether that’s managing multiple brands, improving sportsbook engagement, or creating stronger connections between casino and sports betting. At Altenar, we work closely with our partners to deliver solutions that support sustainable growth and long-term success.”
Altenar recently published a case study with L&L Europe, a UK-focused multi-brand operator, demonstrating how a scalable sportsbook strategy helped support rapid growth across its portfolio.
Altenar’s sales, account management, and senior leadership teams will be available at the expo. Attendees are invited to book a meeting with the Altenar team and visit stand P65 to discuss how operators can strengthen their position in today’s highly competitive UK market.

franchise and introduces the Wild Fusion multiplier tower.

tokens and wilds are collected in separate pots during base play and can randomly activate one of two bonuses. Landing three bonus symbols triggers a bonus game where players choose between the Gold Blitz Fortune Tower

. In the Wild Fusion Fortune Tower
, cash values convert to multipliers of up to 20x, applying to wins containing wilds.
