GVC Welcomes Launch of YGAM’s Parent Hub
Global sports-betting and gaming group GVC Holdings has welcomed the launch of Young Gamers and Gamblers Education Trust’s (YGAM) Parent Hub, a new support portal to educate on the potential risks associated with gambling and gaming including products such as loot boxes. The hub, developed with the help of funding from GVC, has been launched to coincide with schools breaking up for summer.
YGAM is a national charity with a social purpose to inform, educate and safeguard young and vulnerable people, helping them build resilience and understand the potential harms caused by gambling and gaming.
With the launch of YGAM’s Parent Hub, the charity aims to: inform parents of ways to build their children’s resilience online and offline, creating a healthy balance and providing resources to help parents engage with their children; educate parents around gaming, in-app purchases and gambling, helping them understand the potential harms caused by online play and the blurred lines between gaming and gambling; and safeguard children through the use of online safety settings and increased awareness of how to stay safe and resilient in their environment.
YGAM’s Parent Hub will help build digital resilience and safeguard children online. In addition to providing resources which underpin informed conversations between parents and children, the hub also provides parents with a number of technical, but easily implementable measures. These include disabling pop-ups, enabling in-app and on-device parental controls, setting passwords for in-game purchases, restricting and disabling in-app purchases, and setting boundaries – for example by setting a monthly spending limit.
“YGAM is an incredible organisation and its simple, usable resources help parents have honest and open conversations with their children about gaming and gambling. We are delighted to have been able to support its vitally important educative resource hub, which launches at a crucial time, during the summer holidays. GVC’s Changing for the Bettor strategy seeks to advance society’s collective understanding of the risks of problematic gaming and gambling, and we look forward to continuing our support of YGAM’s evidence-led efforts in this area,” Grainne Hurst, GVC’s Group Director of Corporate Affairs, said.
“GVC are longstanding supporters of YGAM and we are grateful for their support of Parent Hub alongside operators Lottoland and Playtech as a cross-industry initiative. Our vision was to have an up to date, central expert resource library for parents and carers and extend our successful face-to-face directly to parents, with a fully integrated digital offer, which is phase two of this important initiative,” Lee Willows, YGAM’s Founder and Chief Executive, said.

WinSpirit Launches Alchemy of Passion: A Birthday Campaign Combining Gamification, Rewards, and Player Engagement
This summer, WinSpirit celebrates its birthday with Alchemy of Passion, a large-scale promotional campaign designed to create deeper player engagement through gamification, storytelling, and immersive rewards.
Built around the concept of discovering the legendary Elixir of Passion, the campaign transforms traditional promotional mechanics into an interactive journey. Players are invited to collect ingredients, complete quests, unlock rewards, and explore new experiences — turning every spin and action into part of a larger adventure.
Throughout the campaign, players can access multiple engagement features, including the Gift Portal, Gift Shop, Mystery Elixirs, quests, tournaments, and exclusive bonuses created specifically for the celebration.
From a product perspective, Alchemy of Passion highlights WinSpirit’s approach to developing creative promotional solutions that help operators increase player interaction, strengthen loyalty, and deliver memorable brand experiences. By combining narrative-driven mechanics with rewarding gameplay elements, the campaign provides partners with a flexible engagement tool designed to support retention and long-term player relationships.
The campaign also reflects WinSpirit’s continued investment in innovation, exploring new ways to connect entertainment, technology, and player-focused experiences within the iGaming ecosystem.
This birthday celebration is WinSpirit’s way of thanking the community that continues to shape the brand. Instead of simply marking another milestone, the company is creating new opportunities for players to interact, discover rewards, and celebrate together.
While Alchemy of Passion is already live, another major experience is being prepared behind the scenes. Soon, players and partners will get their first look at Euphoria Lab — a brand-new concept designed to bring an entirely new level of engagement.
The celebration has begun. The formula continues to evolve, and the next chapter is about to unfold.

SpringbokCasino ties July free spins to ‘Minions in the Wild’ campaign
SpringbokCasino.co.za has launched a July promotion offering players 25 free spins on SpinLogic slot title Seahorse Surge, using coupon code MINIONS. The operator said the offer is valid throughout July on its South Africa-facing site.
The campaign is positioned around a “Minions in the Wild – Nature’s Greatest Helpers” theme, timed to coincide with the release window of a new Minions film. SpringbokCasino’s creative frames the promotion through five animal “archetypes” — meerkats, hyenas, dassies, warthogs and elephants — as analogies for different styles of play.
“Every ecosystem needs its helpers, and every winning session needs the right mix of patience, timing, and a little bit of glorious chaos,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino. “This July, we celebrate South Africa’s wildest ‘Minions’—and give our players 25 free spins to cause some fun trouble of their own.”
SpringbokCasino described Seahorse Surge as featuring “cascading wins and rising multipliers.”
The press release also links to a video version of the story hosted at https://lyceum.video/casinonews/260701/260701.mp4.
