Fintech company OKTO has entered into a partnership with Inspired Entertainment to expand the network of gaming machines in the UK leisure sector that accept the OKTO app for mobile cashless payments.

Responding to increasing demand for a cashless ecosystem, the fintech provider will offer its fully licensed OKTO.WALLET electronic money payment platform on Inspired gaming machines across UK Pubs, delivering an enhanced payment experience.

The OKTO app includes a secure Know Your Customer (KYC) process along with age verification and also provides facilities for consumers to enable transaction limits and time-out breaks.

Meeting all the niche demands of the leisure and gaming sectors and their users, the OKTO.WALLET platform allows pubgoers to move funds instantly across the entire payment ecosystem via the open and interconnected OKTO mobile app that can be used in all touchpoints of the venue and beyond through the OKTO Prepaid Mastercard linked to the users’ OKTO wallet account.

The solution will be launched with Inspired’s key Pub retail partners in September and will be available on Inspired’s latest range of Category C gaming products.

Simon Dorsen, Director of Gaming at OKTO, said: “Inspired is a major supplier to the UK Pub and Gaming sector and this collaboration along with other recently announced partners in the sector, strengthens OKTO’s position as the go to mobile payments app for consumers and operators in the leisure sector.

Digital payments for F&B sales are surging in pubs due to the pandemic accelerating changing habits, and now OKTO enables pubs to extend and satisfy their customers’ desire for digital payments also at the gaming machines.

Our easy-to-use solution allows players to go simply to a gaming machine, press a button to use OKTO, and deposit funds to start playing. And it is the same in the cashout; they get the winnings back to the OKTO wallet in real-time. Alongside, we can also onboard pubs as merchants, if OKTO users can spend some money on food and drink in the pub, they simply can, and they can also split the bill with their friends or send and receive money from their friends using simply the OKTO app.”

Peter Davies, Managing Director of the Leisure business at Inspired, said: “From our initial introduction to OKTO we were extremely impressed by the breadth of knowledge and experience of cashless payment solutions demonstrated by the OKTO team. Their understanding and practical knowledge of the gaming sector in particular have allowed them to develop a mobile payment solution that fits perfectly into our product offer.

In particular the focus on player protection and social responsibility stood out, together with the simplicity of the solution itself. We are delighted to be working in close collaboration with OKTO and are looking forward to rolling the solution out in conjunction with our customers and offering machine players a safe, secure and feature rich alternative to cash.”

Reflex Gaming, the UK’s largest independently owned omni-channel game supplier, is heading deep into the wilderness this August with the launch of Power Pack, a fiercely fun wolf-themed slot powered by Yggdrasil and designed to lead the pack across all verticals.

Power Pack invites players to follow the howls through the forest in search of big wins and even bigger thrills. With a 6×4 reel setup, 32 paylines, and the chance to win up to 10,000x, this game blends nature, tension and teeth into one unforgettable adventure.

Wins land from the left-most reel, with three or more identical symbols triggering a payout – but it’s the layered features that really bring the bite.

Players can trigger Free Spins by landing Moon symbols on reels 2–5 with one or more Power Pack symbols on reel 1 and/or 6. The Moons award Free Spins, and multiple Power Pack symbols multiply the total. Each Power Pack symbol boosts a persistent win multiplier up to x44. The feature can retrigger and includes chances to hit Cash Link or Wolf Run bonuses.

In the Cash Link feature, land a cash link symbol on reels 2–5 with a Power Pack symbol on reel 1 and/or 6 to trigger this hold and spin feature. Coin Prizes lock in, and respins reset with each new coin or power pack symbol. When finished, all coin prizes are awarded for every Power Pack symbol in view. Fill the central grid to land the MEGA pot.

Finally, there’s the Wolf Run Modifier, this randomly triggered bonus adds stacked Wilds to one or more reels during any spin. The background shifts to a moonlit forest as the wolves summon full-reel Wilds, boosting win potential. It can hit during base game or Free Spins for sudden, dramatic payouts.

Built for players who like their games wild and full of bite, Power Pack rewards symbol matches from the left-most reel and ramps up the excitement with layered bonus features that keep every spin fresh.

Mat Ingram, CPO at Reflex Gaming, said:  “With Power Pack, we’ve tapped into something raw and compelling – the primal excitement of being part of the pack. The theme, the pacing, the visuals – they all come together to create a game that’s both instinctive and rewarding. We’re proud to be launching this title through Yggdrasil and can’t wait to see players embrace the hunt.”

Leading sportsbook supplier BETBY has further grown its proprietary esports feed, Betby Games, with the addition of three new e-sim titles: eBoxing, eVolleyball, and the world’s first-ever virtual version of Kabaddi, eKabaddi. With this release, the Betby Games portfolio now features 22 titles, continuing to set the standard in high-frequency, localised betting content.

The newly launched titles reinforce BETBY’s strategy of diversifying its esports feed across both mainstream and niche sporting verticals, offering tailored content for specific regions while maintaining global appeal.

eKabaddi represents a historic industry first: a fully simulated and exclusive title made for fans of the sport, with a special focus on Asia. Launching in sync with the upcoming Season 12 of the Indian Pro Kabaddi League, this new addition features two tournaments: the Indian Pro League and a World Cup. With over 7,500 monthly matches, two 5-minute halves per game, and a unique real-sport integration, eKabaddi offers operators a powerful way to maintain 24/7 fan engagement and retention, even between real-world fixtures.

eBoxing brings iconic fighters to the virtual ring — from modern-day stars like Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk to true legends such as Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, and the Klitschko brothers — creating matchups never possible in real life, but now made reality through Betby Games. The title features fast-paced matchups across Light Heavyweight and Heavyweight tournaments, with each fight limited to a single 2-minute round and pre-match betting available on over 20,000 monthly events, making it perfectly suited for short-session engagement and high-intensity action.

eVolleyball launches with four tournaments showcasing national teams in a one-set-to-25-points format. Drawing from the South American Championship and CEV EuroVolley (for both men and women), each match lasts approximately 10 minutes. The title is expected to generate 15,000 events per month, adding variety to the Betby Games lineup.

Kirill Nekrasov, Head of Sportsbook Product at BETBY, commented: “We’re heading into the new sports season at full speed and pushing the Betby Games portfolio to new heights. Each of the new titles is unique and important for the market, we’re filling the live content gap across all directions. The launch of eKabaddi shows that for the Betby Games team, nothing is impossible.”

BETBY’s proprietary Betby Games ecosystem now includes 22 titles, 80+ tournaments, 8,000+ betting markets, and supports over 400,000 monthly matches, providing operators with an unparalleled selection of fast, flexible, and scalable esports content.
