MiFinity and CashtoCode announce payments partnership
CashtoCode, the instant cash payment service for online merchants, and Mifinity, the secure iGaming ewallet, today announced a new global payments partnership. MiFinity users can now top up their iGaming accounts at more than 150,000 physical locations worldwide using the CashtoCode cash deposit network, as well as using CashtoCode’s new online evoucher product.
This is the first time that MiFinity customers will be able to make payments with cash, which many customers prefer for privacy, security and self-control reasons. For CashtoCode, the partnership with MiFinity puts its service inside one of the fastest growing iGaming eWallets. Meanwhile, MiFinity chose to partner with CashtoCode for its global reach, with more than 150,000 retail locations across Europe and international markets such as Africa and Australia. Its evoucher solution is also extremely popular in regions where iGaming customers cannot easily make payments such as LATAM and Asia – where they can be redeemed instantly online like any traditional retail voucher code.
The two companies are also a good match on important issues such as security. MiFinity is highly regarded in the global iGaming community for secure virtual payment processing, and it set a high bar on security standards when searching for a cash deposit partner. In CashtoCode, it found a service designed to eliminate fraud and money laundering concerns through a unique closed-loop cash payment system. Its cash deposit codes cannot be transferred by users, meaning they are far more secure and lower risk for iGaming operators.
“CashtoCode has grown remarkably over the last 12 months, and working now with MiFinity will ensure even more iGaming customers will access our range of cash and online payment services,” said CashtoCode CEO, Jens Bader. “Cash remains the most widely used and widely accepted form of payment around the world, and all leading iGaming operators are considering the best ways of adding cash to their payment portfolios. By working with brands like MiFinity, we hope to become the number one cash deposit method of choice for all operators in the years ahead.”
“We wanted to add a cash deposit option for our users and CashtoCode was immediately identified as the best fit for our needs,” said MiFinity CEO Paul Kavanagh. “We are known in the iGaming industry for safe, secure and smart payment services, and it was important that any new payment partner fulfilled the same criteria. The CashtoCode service is proven to be extremely popular and effective, and we see it as a unique value proposition in the market. I’m confident that we can build a successful and sustainable partnership with the team, that will benefit our customers and operators alike.”

Gamblers Connect names Gali Hartuv as seventh 2026 Contributors Program voice
The Playa strategic advisor will publish on VIP operations, segmentation and retention, starting with an anonymous VIP Operations Survey 2026.
Gamblers Connect has confirmed Gali Hartuv, Strategic Advisor at The Playa, as the seventh voice to join its 2026 Contributors Program.
The independent B2B iGaming media platform said the programme will reveal one senior industry voice per month throughout 2026, with contributors publishing under the Gamblers Connect Contributor Editorial Code.
Gamblers Connect said Hartuv has more than 15 years’ experience in VIP management, including designing and optimising VIP programmes across more than 50 operator brands, and training “hundreds of professionals” now working in VIP roles across the industry.
Hartuv will publish across four areas: building VIP programmes that drive long-term value; AI-powered VIP identification and player segmentation; hyper-personalisation and retention strategy; and scaling VIP operations across different markets and cultures. His first contribution is a VIP Operations Survey 2026, an anonymous survey intended to benchmark how VIP teams work across iGaming operators, including portfolio sizing, tools, qualification thresholds, workflow standards and where time is spent during the week.
Partnerships and Operations Lead, Luka Dimitrijevic, said: “VIP management is where a great deal of an operator’s value is won or lost, and very few people can speak to it with Gali’s depth. He has spent his career turning high value player relationships into a discipline rather than guesswork, and he is refreshingly candid about what works and what does not. Through the Contributors Program he will share practical insight on VIP strategy, retention, and the smart use of AI, with content grounded in real results rather than recycled best practices.”
