Galaxy Gaming, the US-based developer and distributor of casino table games and solutions, has reached an agreement with John Wicks, who created Perfect Pairs. As per the agreement, inked through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Progressive Games Partners, Galaxy Gaming will become the exclusively provider of Perfect Pairs live gaming progressive jackpot on land-based table games in the United Kingdom.

The deal is significant because Perfect Pairs and Galaxy Gaming’s own 21+3 are the most sought-after Blackjack side bets in both the land-based casinos and iGaming space in the UK. This new partnership will further boost the company’s prominence in this niche.

Gavin Wright, Galaxy Gaming’s Europe Sales Consultant, said: “I’m absolutely delighted about our progressive jackpot opportunity with Perfect Pairs.  This agreement builds on the expertise and value that Galaxy Gaming brings as the table game authority to casino operators and their customers across both our land-based and online iGaming channels. With Perfect Pairs and 21+3, we now have the two most-played Blackjack side bets in our progressive portfolio which can be delivered as a ‘Dual Progressive’ on the same Blackjack table, creating a totally unique and market-leading solution. As we have seen with the limited occupancies of some floors in the States, having multiple and unique betting opportunities for the players is paramount. There has never been a more important time to review what is being offered on your gaming floor.”

Customers of leading Brazilian gaming tech company, EstrelaBet, are set to enjoy more innovative and entertaining betting experiences for the world’s top football competitions after the operator today announced an extensive partnership with sports data and AI leader Stats Perform.

The multi-year agreement for Stats Perform’s ‘Bet LiveStreams’ content and technology provide EstrelaBet customers the ability to watch and bet on nearly 20,000+ premium men’s and women’s professional football matches a year, across 80 global competitions, providing round-the-clock, year-round exciting betting action.

It includes some the most popular football competitions played globally, featuring some of Brazilian football’s top talent, including Spain’s LaLiga, the English Football League (EFL) and Carabao Cup, multiple Concacaf competitions and internationals, and wide coverage of South American competitions in Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Mexico, as well as prominent leagues played in Asia.

EstrelaBet will also offer innovative player and team stats betting markets powered by detailed live Opta data, thrilling bettors with every shot, foul, and tackle.  Altenar, an accredited Opta for Betting partner, will create and settle unique markets for more than 90 global competitions and 11,000+ games a year – a growing number, due to huge demand from operators and bettors globally.  These significant product upgrades solidify EstrelaBet’s leading position within the regulated Brazilian betting market and prime it to achieve its ambitious growth targets.

Fellipe Fraga, CBO (Chief Business Officer) at EstrelaBet, said, “These are two major upgrades for EstrelaBet. Firstly, it’s vital for customer trust for us to build stats betting experiences with the same consistently-collected football data used globally by the biggest professional teams, broadcasters and media, and that is Opta. Secondly, the quality and scale of Stats Perform’s premium live streaming package means our customers can quickly watch lots of the games they’re betting on, which further increases their entertainment and enjoyment from our sportsbook.”

Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, added, “Live streaming creates the ultimate trusted and entertaining in-play betting experience, and we’ve built a popular official rights portfolio, especially in football, delivered through award-winning technology. We’ve also invested heavily in expanding the range of competitions covered by our specialist Opta API for sportsbooks. These investments ensure that operators like EstrelaBet, and partners like Altenar, can create personalised, innovative, and engaging sports betting experiences. We look forward to seeing the results they achieve”.

Earlier in 2025, Bet LiveStreams was named Industry Innovation of the Year – South America at SBC Americas, and Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR Awards – an acknowledgement of the impact Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams service has on elevating in-play betting experiences in regulated betting markets.

Stats Perform’s multi-award-winning, trusted Opta data API has also established itself as the gold standard in football statistics for teams, leagues, broadcasters, live scores apps and sportsbooks, providing the critical data for products like same-game multis and player props that have become hugely popular with bettors.

“It’s impossible to overstate what Corey has meant to this Company over the last 30-plus years. He has been a constant presence, providing foundational leadership for all the key moments that have defined our history – from our acquisitions of Mirage Group and Mandalay Resort Group to our regional property openings and expansions like Springfield, National Harbor, Empire City and Borgata. More importantly, Corey helped us put all the different pieces together to create one company and one culture. As a leader and as a person, Corey understood the importance of caring for employees and treating people with respect. He will be deeply missed,” said Bill Hornbuckle, President & CEO of MGM Resorts.

Sanders is currently MGM Resorts’ Chief Operating Officer, overseeing the company’s Las Vegas and regional properties as well as multiple corporate departments, including Hospitality, Gaming, Human Resources and Strategic Initiatives. Prior to that, he served as the company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer. In his tenure with MGM Resorts, Sanders has also served as Chief Operating Officer for the company’s Core Brands, Executive Vice President of Operations for MGM MIRAGE, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer for MGM Grand Resorts, Executive Vice President and CFO for MGM Grand, Assistant Vice President of Corporate Finance and Tax Director for MGM Grand.

Innovative Technology Americas are preparing for a major gaming show in the US – G2E 2025 – which will take place on October 6-9 at the Las Vegas Venetian Expo. Global Gaming Expo (G2E) is the gambling industry trade show for discovering the latest technologies and connecting with partners. Innovative Technology (ITL), a trusted provider of bill validators and recyclers to the gaming industry, will be showing their latest devices, from booth 1830.

Commenting on ITL’s participation, Lauren Fabbri, Business Development Manager for North America said, “This is always an exciting exhibition for us and we can’t wait to show G2E visitors our latest technology. We are experiencing huge growth across North America, as well as expanding our presence in South American, so this show presents an ideal platform to network with customers and suppliers in this vibrant market. Interest in our NV200 casino grade, field-proven bill validator is rising and with its “easy to retrofit” design, we are seeing more operators upgrading their existing machines. Come to the booth and see how this unit can transform cash handling for your gaming operations.”

Lauren continued: “We will also showcase a selection of bill recyclers at the booth with varying capacities depending on your need, including the NV4000 which is ideal for redemption terminals due to its large multi-bill recycling capacity, NV22S for a compact bill recycling solution, and the Spectral Payout for mid-range mixed denomination recycling. When using any of our recyclers with the SMART Coin System we can provide the gaming industry with a complete payment solution for both bills and coins.”

Concluding Lauren said: “G2E visitors will also be able to demo our latest AI-powered age and identity verification technology too. These products can be used to help prevent underage gambling, either on-machine or at entrances to age-restricted gaming zones. The team will be happy to answer any questions and demonstrate our products on booth 1830 – see you in Las Vegas!”
