TalkBanStop Announces One-year Extension

TalkBanStop – a partnership between GamCare, Gamban, and GAMSTOP – has secured funding for a further year and will continue to provide free tools and support for people struggling with their gambling.

The partnership, initially a 12-month pilot programme, has received the additional funding from a regulatory settlement approved by the UK Gambling Commission which will see the partnership and evaluation extended until March 2023. Since the pilot launched, the partnership has contributed to over 7000 registrations of Gamban’s blocking software.

The funds will be allocated towards the provision of free blocking software licences from Gamban and increased marketing of free practical tools and support available. The three organisations will also be looking to secure further long-term funding for the partnership.

TalkBanStop brings together practical free tools and support which can help people maintain a successful recovery for anyone harmed by gambling. It offers a combination of personal support via GamCare’s trained advisers, free access to Gamban blocking software and signposting to the GAMSTOP self exclusion scheme, and proactive, consistent signposting to promote the layering of tools and support across all three organisations websites.

Early research on the partnership conducted by Ipsos Mori last year highlighted that people who had made use of all layers of support had reported a reduction of gambling-related harms, whilst many perceived the tools as significant barriers to accessing gambling sites, resulting in reduced urges to gamble and increased motivation to stop gambling.

One evaluation case study participant said: “The fact that I’ve used that service [GAMSTOP] with the blocking software and the counselling has given me three big pillars to stand on. I can’t do it anyway on my phone, and I’m getting it in my mindset through the counselling that I don’t want to do it and that I’m changing my behaviours towards it.”

With the extension of an additional year, GamCare, Gamban and GAMSTOP will continue working to increase awareness of the partnership among those who need it most. The organisations will also continue to share best-practice with one another, ensuring efforts to enhance the joint offering of easy, free access to all three services.

Anna Hemmings, Chief Executive at GamCare, said: “TalkBanStop is a partnership that makes enormous sense for anyone harmed by online gambling, and an excellent example of organisations coming together whose services provide an important first step for people wanting to stop gambling. Since the partnership started there has been huge value in pooling our expertise together as organisations, creating an offering that people can use easily and freely to kickstart their recovery.

“We have heard from people supported by TalkBanStop how the impact of our interventions, layered together, can amplify the impact for their recovery. That’s why it’s important there is no break in the free availability of all three layers of support. Going forward, we are looking to continue building on the successes of the past year and work towards our shared aspiration of reducing gambling-related harms.”

MiFinity, the award-winning global eWallet provider, has announced the integration of Veriff’s new automated Proof of Address (POA) solution, enhancing its Know Your Customer (KYC) process with cutting-edge fraud prevention and compliance technology.

This latest development builds on MiFinity’s successful two-year partnership with Veriff for Proof of Identity (POI) checks. By integrating automated POA, MiFinity will soon deliver a streamlined, highly effective KYC experience that combines POI and POA verification in real time. For customers, this means faster onboarding, instant account-level upgrades upon completion, and a frictionless journey. For merchants, it strengthens MiFinity’s ability to support genuine customers globally while mitigating fraud risks across the value chain.

The Veriff solution uses AI and machine learning to verify documents, detect manipulation, and identify fraudulent activity in real-time. This ensures only legitimate customers gain access, while reducing manual intervention for MiFinity’s KYC team. The outcome is a faster, more secure, and scalable onboarding process that protects merchants, boosts compliance, and supports long-term growth.

Paul Kavanagh, CEO of MiFinity, commented: “Our partnership with Veriff has always been about raising the bar on compliance, fraud protection and customer experience. With this new Proof of Address solution, we were proud to be involved early in the product development process, helping shape a service that works for our markets and our users. By adopting it from day one, we’ve not only streamlined customer onboarding but also strengthened the safeguards that protect our merchant partners. It’s a win-win; customers get verified quickly and easily, and merchants can be confident that MiFinity is committed to fraud prevention, compliance, and delivering trusted financial services worldwide.”

The integration also reinforces MiFinity’s position as a forward-thinking payments company committed to implementing best-in-class technologies. By reducing friction for legitimate users while blocking bad actors, MiFinity ensures higher customer satisfaction, greater trust in its platform, and added value for its network of over 1,200 global merchant brands.

Through this collaboration, MiFinity and Veriff are setting new standards for digital onboarding in fintech – where security, speed, and compliance work hand in hand to drive growth across sectors such as eCommerce, travel, Forex, and beyond.

Stakelogic summons Soul Slayer – a duel between slayer and demon

Enter the Demon World this Halloween with Stakelogic’s newest blockbuster slot

Stakelogic is closing out spooky season in style with Soul Slayer, a gripping slot experience where every spin becomes a battle for survival. Set in a world consumed by demonic forces, Soul Slayer challenges players to embrace their inner warrior and strike back with precision, fury, and Wild-filled rewards.

At Soul Slayer’s core is the unique Rumble Reels™ mechanic, where opposing champions clash directly on the reels. Characters engage in real-time battles, interacting with symbols and gathering rewards as the fight unfolds.

In the base game, the Slayer acts as a special Wild symbol that appears only on reel 1. When it lands alongside Demons, it triggers the Wild Slayer Feature, transforming matching Demon symbols into Wilds or Multiplier Wilds worth up to x5. Meanwhile, the Incursion Feature can open up to 20 portals mid-spin, flooding the reels with high-value Demon symbols. When the Slayer appears, the two features collide for devastating win potential.

When four or more Scatters appear, players are transported to the Combat Free Spins Feature, a three-tiered gauntlet where each victory brings them closer to the final showdown. Defeat waves of Demons to unlock Boss fights against the Minotaur, Cerberus, and the fearsome Dragon Lord. Each duel heightens the intensity, rewarding accuracy and perseverance.

During Combat Free Spins, Special Symbols introduce tactical depth: Attack symbols pull Coins or Coin Multipliers from their row before striking their Demon opponent, while Heal symbols offer reprieve when the battle turns fierce.

For players eager to face the Demon World head-on, the Buy Bonus feature allows instant access to the Combat Free Spins round for 100x the base bet, while Super Stake™ can be activated to double the chance of triggering Free Spins.

James Jelliffe, Head of Slots at Stakelogic, said: “Soul Slayer is our most ambitious fantasy release to date, capturing the feeling of taking on impossible odds and turning them in your favour. Every feature is designed to make the player feel powerful: from slaying Demons mid-spin to facing down monstrous Bosses in Combat Free Spins. It’s about surviving the onslaught, mastering the mechanics, and ultimately walking away victorious.”
