GLMS Issues its 2021 Q1 Monitoring & Intelligence Report

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Global Lottery Monitoring System (GLMS) has published its Q1 2021 report, identifying Europe as the continent most responsible for suspicious betting alerts.

Overall, 323 alerts were recorded during the first quarter of 2021, with Europe the only continent demonstrating triple figures, accounting for 160 suspicious betting activity warnings.

Asia followed with 66, with South America close behind at 58, whilst North America, Africa and Oceania generated 14, eight and seven warnings respectively. A further 10 alerts were classified as “international”.

Of the 160 European alerts, football was the sport with the most suspicious wagers, reporting a total of 94 warnings, whilst basketball accounted for 30. Ice hockey, esports, tennis and volleyball and handball also witnessed suspicious betting activity.

In contrast, esports saw extensive illicit betting in Asia, with 24 alerts generated for this sector – the same number of warnings generated by football across the continent, whilst basketball also reported the second-highest activity levels at 17.

The statistics demonstrate a noticeable difference from those uncovered by the International Betting Integrity Association’s (IBIA) 2020 report, largely due to the significance of tennis in the latter’s findings.

Of the 270 cases reported by the IBIA – a 48% increase on the 2019 figure – tennis accounted for 98 alerts, with 39 handled by the International Tennis Integrity Association (ITIA).

In total, football dominated the total number of alerts sent to GLMS members at 196 in Q1 2021, followed by basketball at 56, esports at 40 and ice hockey at 15, whilst volleyball and handball generated only one each.

“As sports events globally are starting up again, as seen with March Madness in the US, we believe our lottery sports customers are going to have a great 2021,” Jennifer Welshons, Senior Vice President of Marketing of GLMS member organisation Scientific Games, said.

“We are already experiencing record weeks in Delaware in the US and in Turkey, and we are thrilled to support this with one of the most advanced sports betting platforms in the industry.

“We believe that modernization is the clear path to protecting lottery funding for the vital programs and good causes they support.”

Additionally, the organisation outlined that 188 of the 323 alerts were classified as “green alerts”, relating to factors such as team-related news, wrong starting prices, member information and situations in which a one person or entity owned a sports club and its sponsor.

A further 67 yellow alerts were reported, generated by unexplainable odds changes, tournament structure and rumours of match fixing from news outlets, betting forums and social media.

Finally, of the 323 alerts, 13 were red alerts – warnings supported by rumours of match fixing from a named source as well as unexplainable odds changes, betfair volume and tournament structure.

“The past year has presented exceptional challenges which have had a profound impact across the industry,” Edward Peace, Managing Director of Sporting Solutions, said.

“Our response has been guided by a commitment to do the right thing for our people and partners, reflecting a set of company values that long pre-dates the COVID-19 pandemic.“

“We worked hard on event and competition integrity, both internally and with external providers, to ensure new content that filled the COVID-19 void was is in line with our high standards.”

1spin4win calls on the iGaming community to support children’s healthcare in Kenya

1spin4win-calls-on-the-igaming-community-to-support-children’s-healthcare-in-kenya

1spin4win, an established slot provider, announces a charitable initiative supporting children facing cancer and CNS-related conditions in Kenya, while inviting the wider iGaming community to join the cause.

At 1spin4win, creating impact goes beyond the iGaming industry. With its new social initiative, the company aims to support children in need while encouraging the industry to come together around a meaningful cause.

To support this mission, the game provider is launching United for Impact — a charitable initiative dedicated to helping children with cancer and CNS-related conditions in Kenya. Through the campaign, 1spin4win invites partners and the wider iGaming community to join the initiative and contribute to collective change.

Limited access to specialized healthcare creates barriers for families seeking timely medical help for children with complex health conditions like cancer and CNS-related disorders. According to estimates, the country records around 3,000 new childhood cancer cases each year. However, the true number may be higher due to frequent misdiagnosis and the absence of a comprehensive national pediatric cancer registry. 

This often contributes to delayed treatment and poorer outcomes for children. While survival rates for childhood cancer exceed 80% in many developed countries, in Kenya, only around 20% of children survive. Late diagnosis, limited access to specialized care, and treatment abandonment caused by financial barriers remain among the key factors behind this disparity.

As part of the United for Impact initiative, 1spin4win will support Gertrude’s Children’s Hospital Foundation, the charitable arm of one of Kenya’s most established pediatric hospitals. Founded in 2010, the foundation works to expand access to quality healthcare for vulnerable and underserved children nationwide. Backed by a network of 18 medical centers serving over 400,000 patients annually, the organization provides treatment, specialized care, and outreach help for families in need.

The decision to support healthcare in Kenya reflects 1spin4win’s growing presence in African markets. As the studio continues to expand across the continent, it has built relationships with local iGaming brands, partners, and communities. In addition, the team has recently attended the iGaming AFRIKA Summit 2026, further strengthening its ties with the region.

Valiantsina Dubavets, Head of Marketing at 1spin4win, shared, “The iGaming industry is growing rapidly — new markets are emerging, major events are bringing people together, and a strong professional community continues to take shape. At a time like this, we believe it is especially important to direct some of that collective attention toward real social challenges. At 1spin4win, we see it as our responsibility to use our platform to contribute to initiatives that matter beyond the industry.”

Dr. Doreen Karimi, Oncology Doctor at Gertrude’s Children Hospital, commented, “By partnering with the Gertrude’s Hospital Foundation, your contribution goes directly toward breaking down the structural and financial walls that stand between a sick child and a healthy future. This includes covering complex procedures, training frontline health workers in remote counties, equipping specialized infrastructure, and supporting vulnerable families to prevent them from falling into poverty.”

The United for Impact campaign will become part of a broader series of activities aimed at connecting the iGaming community around charity causes and encouraging a culture of responsible business within the industry.

FairGambling Launches Crypto Casino Review and Analytics Platform With Provably Fair Tools and Extra Rewards

Published

fairgambling-launches-crypto-casino-review-and-analytics-platform-with-provably-fair-tools-and-extra-rewards

New York, USA, June 5th, 2026, PlayNewswire

FairGambling, a new transparency and rewards platform for crypto casino players and Bitcoin gamblers, today announced its public launch. The platform combines on-chain analytics, provably fair verification tools, independent crypto casino reviews, live bonus code feeds, and an extra rewards program offering up to 30% rakeback across 40+ major crypto casino operators including Stake, Roobet, Shuffle, BC.Game, Gamdom, Bitcasino, 1win, Winna, Thrill and Duel, with much more to come.

FairGambling launches into a market that processed over $80 billion in crypto casino deposit volume last year. The platform’s analytics layer already tracks $45 billion+ of that flow in real time across the operators it covers. Despite the market’s scale, players still have limited tools to verify fairness, compare operators, or independently assess where their money is going.

Built as a Utility Layer, Not Another Affiliate Site

“Most casino review sites today are just rankings and sign-up bonuses,” said Seb, Co-Founder of FairGambling. “We wanted to build something different. A place where players can actually see what’s happening on-chain, verify their own bets, compare casinos based on data instead of marketing, and earn real rewards on top. All for free, with no obligations. That’s the gap we’re filling, and what’s live today is just the start of what we’re building.”

The platform brings together several player-first tools in one place:

  • On-chain crypto casino analytics, tracking real-time deposit volume, market share, unique depositors, and hot wallet activity across 50+ operators
  • Provably fair verifier for independently checking game outcomes from Stake, Roobet, Shuffle and other major operators
  • Independent crypto casino reviews and ratings scored across 10 weighted categories including fairness, financial transparency, KYC and licensing, compliance, and customer support
  • Live bonus code feed aggregating active promotions from supported operators
  • Bonus calculator and Stake stats calculator for analyzing personal betting history and rakeback value
  • Blackjack trainer for practicing basic strategy
  • Extra rakeback rewards program offering up to 30% on supported crypto casinos

Data-Driven Casino Comparison

Unlike traditional affiliate sites that rank casinos based on commercial agreements, FairGambling’s ratings are built from a weighted rubric covering analytics, fairness, financial transparency, bonus structure, compliance, and security. Each operator profile includes deposit volumes, hot wallet visibility, license details, no-KYC policies, bonus testing results showing how much players actually receive back in rewards when wagering a given amount, and side-by-side comparisons against other operators on the same metrics.

The analytics section is open to all visitors and shows live on-chain flows, allowing players to see which operators are processing real volume versus those with thin activity. This is a data point traditionally only available to industry insiders.

Community Reviews and Earning Crypto

FairGambling places verified player reviews at the center of its review system. Verified users can earn crypto rewards for eligible contributions, and the platform requires casino activity verification (such as VIP tier or wager history) before reviews are approved, which is intended to filter out the fake reviews common to other online gambling review sites.

“Trust in this space is broken,” Seb added. “We’re not going to fix that overnight, but giving players the data, the tools, and the rewards to actually engage critically with the operators they use, that’s the foundation. Everything else builds on that.”

The platform helps players find the best crypto casinos based on data, verify game fairness, and earn extra rakeback on top of what casinos already offer. FairGambling is now live and available worldwide, subject to local laws and eligibility requirements.

About FairGambling

FairGambling is a crypto casino transparency and rewards platform that helps players make more informed decisions across major Bitcoin and crypto gambling operators. The platform combines on-chain casino analytics, independent crypto casino reviews and ratings, provably fair verification tools, live bonus code feeds, player stats tools, a blackjack trainer, and an extra rewards program offering up to 30% extra rakeback. FairGambling currently covers 50+ crypto casino operators and has tracked $45 billion+ in historical deposit volume, with more added regularly.

For more information, users can visit FairGambling.com.

Responsible gambling notice: FairGambling is not a casino and does not accept bets or process gambling transactions. The platform provides analytics, reviews, verification tools, and rewards related to third-party crypto casino operators. FairGambling is intended for users aged 18+ or the legal gambling age in their jurisdiction. Gambling involves risk and can be addictive. Please play responsibly and follow all applicable local laws.
