Microgaming Broadens its Charitable Scope to Support More Responsible Gambling Charities in 2021
Microgaming has broadened its charitable scope to support even more Responsible Gambling charities in 2021.
As Microgaming marks Safer Gambling Week 2021 alongside other industry players, the online gaming company reflects on its projects with charities on a mission to treat, minimise and prevent gambling-related harm.
Through its Microgaming PlayItForward corporate social responsibility programme, the company has widened its reach to the likes of Betknowmore UK, a leading provider of nationwide gambling support and training services. Betknowmore UK, which also conducts research, received a donation to cover the cost of a year-long trial for weekly peer-led group therapy specifically for women, building on its existing peer support service.
Following a donation last year, Microgaming once again assisted the Gordon Moody Association, which delivers a variety of treatment and therapy services for individuals with gambling issues, as well as offering support to the families impacted by their gambling. The latest contribution was earmarked for providing a comfort fund for the loved ones of those under the charity’s watch, as well as to assist with the purchase of furniture for its women’s outreach project.
Having previously assisted Isle of Man-based Motiv8 IOM, which provides addiction treatment and educational services to the Manx community, Microgaming has this year sponsored its gaming and gambling project set up specifically for young people.
Aside from helping organisations to provide specialist support schemes and purchase tangible items, Microgaming backed various digital projects, such as covering the promotional costs for a month-long social campaign for GamCare’s National Helpline. Meanwhile, mental health charity the Beacon Counselling Trust, which runs education programmes and provides free counselling to people with gambling-related issues, and the Young Gamers and Gamblers Education Trust (YGAM), received funding towards the creation of much-needed educational videos.
Now in its seventh year, Microgaming PlayItForward continues to invest in a wide range of local and international community projects, under the three pillars of people, place and planet.
“The collaboration between Microgaming PlayItForward and Betknowmore UK has enabled the development and delivery of new research and support activities that address the theme of women and gambling harms. It is an under-resourced area and, quite rightly, now the recipient of increased investment,” Frankie Graham, Founder and CEO at Betknowmore UK, said.
“We’re proudly standing in solidarity with all areas of our industry to support the Safer Gambling Week initiative, with a calendar of events to promote the Responsible Gambling message across our business. Of course, it’s a conversation our industry should be having all year around, and one which we are committed to being a part of. I’m proud we have been able to support the invaluable work of a range of gambling-related research, education and treatment charities throughout 2021,” John Coleman, CEO at Microgaming, said.

155.io launches Snow Run, bringing real-world winter sports action to its CCTV Game™ portfolio
155.io, Winter Sports Betting, the innovative content studio redefining real-world gaming, has unveiled Snow Run, the latest addition to its CCTV Game
portfolio. The title offers a fresh, immersive betting experience powered by live-action winter sports footage.
The game launches exclusively with Roobet for a seven-day period before being rolled out to other operator partners.
Building on the success of its traffic-themed hit Rush Hour, Snow Run takes players to stunning mountain resorts worldwide, where skiers and snowboarders race down slopes captured via GoPro POVs, drones, slope-side cameras, and CCTV feeds. Players must predict how many athletes will pass through a designated zone, creating a fast-paced and intuitive betting experience.
Available 24/7, Snow Run offers multiple betting options, including Under, Over, Range, and Exact, with multipliers of up to 18x. Using automated computer vision, all skiers are tracked in real time, ensuring transparent, consistent results without human intervention.
As with all CCTV Game
titles, Snow Run features entirely real footage curated from leading content creators, delivering an authentic and visually engaging gaming experience that stands out in the online casino space.
Sam Jones, Founder & CEO of 155.io, said:
“Snow Run takes our simple, engaging mechanic to a completely new environment — real mountain slopes captured from multiple angles. The social media response from streamers has been phenomenal, showing just how much players value authenticity. Launching with Roobet gives us a perfect head start, and we’re confident it will gain real traction ahead of the global rollout.”
After the exclusivity period, Snow Run will be available globally, further expanding 155.io’s portfolio of real-time, content-driven gaming experiences.

Champions Club Secures José Mourinho on New Deal
GR8 Tech and José Mourinho have formed a collaboration designed for the Champions Club—GR8 Tech’s exclusive network for partners competing at a championship standard, where technology, knowledge, and a performance-driven culture take the place of luck to achieve outcomes.
Because a championship is not just a moment. It is a technique—one that appears in training sessions, in data, in choices made without stress that later withstand it all.
Among the most accomplished coaches in football history, Mourinho has established his career through discipline, tactical brilliance, and unyielding preparation. GR8 Tech, a celebrated B2B iGaming platform provider, applies this same methodology to the sector with robust technology, intelligent analytics, and high-performing solutions.
This collaboration brings together two entities that hold the belief that success is founded on strategy, management, and implementation.
“José Mourinho represents the mindset we believe in: success is engineered long before the final result. In iGaming, just like in football, winning comes from preparation, structure, and the ability to perform under pressure,” said Oleksandr Feshchenko, CEO of GR8 Tech.
Champions Don’t Believe in Luck
Success in football and iGaming is frequently viewed by individuals as a result of luck, an opportune moment, ideal timing, or a pass that aligns perfectly with your needs. However, lasting success is never by chance.
That is why José Mourinho is such an ideal match for GR8 Tech. His career has been characterized by the capacity to transform preparation into outcomes, establishing successful systems, and setting the stage for triumph prior to the start of the competition.
The same applies in iGaming. Sustainable performance relies on the robustness of the platform, the caliber of the technology, and the capability to scale accurately. Benefit arises from smart choices and steady implementation.
“I have worked with many organizations over the years. What separates the ones who win consistently is never talent alone—it is culture. The belief that preparation is never optional. I recognized that in GR8 Tech immediately,” said José Mourinho.
What Comes Next
José Mourinho’s arrival marks the start of a wider campaign for GR8 Tech. Over the coming months, GR8 Tech will bring the Champions Club to life through a series of activations and collaborations that reflect what both parties stand for—and what operators who compete at the highest level should expect from a platform built to match their ambition.
The standard has been set. The work has already begun.
Luck off. Championship—ON!
