EveryMatrix announces the launch of a new product for the casino vertical, JackpotEngine. The new gamification solution offers a comprehensive set of configurations that enables operators to manage complex jackpots and add an extra layer of excitement on top of the players’ ordinary betting.

JackpotEngine is the complete Jackpot Management System that allows operators to create their own jackpots for any selection of games across any casino vertical and segment of players.

This gamification solution offers iGaming operators full control over the selection of games where the jackpot is offered, player segmentation, winning probability, seed amounts, winning cap, contribution distribution, and the split of contribution funding between operators and players.

The granularity and range of configurations of the jackpots and the customization of the front-end presentation give operators unprecedented opportunities to create a value-adding and unique player experience.

One or multiple jackpot pools are presented to eligible player segments right in the game via an overlay, whether on a desktop or a mobile device, allowing players to opt-in, watch as jackpots grow, and eventually are won.

JackpotEngine is available to EveryMatrix’s operators using the iGaming Integration Platform CasinoEngine or the pure B2B aggregation solution SlotMatrix, powering any combination of the respective solutions’ entire portfolios of games across providers with customizable jackpots.

Stian Enger, CEO of CasinoEngine, says: “We’re proud to announce the official release of our gamification solution, JackpotEngine. This new module perfectly complements our casino solutions, CasinoEngine and SlotMatrix, to offer endless jackpot options to our operators.

“JackpotEngine has been built with regulated markets in mind and offers the possibility to stay compliant where traditional bonusing is limited or not an option at all.”

JackpotEngine is continuously developing new features that will further boost its acquisition and retention capabilities, setting operators apart from their competition and adding value to their brand.

Alea is returning to NEXT.io Valletta from May 26th to 28th, with Founder Alexandre Tomic taking part in several sessions focused on leadership, regulation, and the future direction of the iGaming industry.

The week begins on May 26th during NEXT Focus: Start-Up & Investor Day, where Alexandre will join the panel “Founders Anonymous – The Conversations That Don’t Make the Press Release.” The discussion will focus on the realities behind building companies, from fundraising and acquisitions to the difficult decisions founders face as businesses grow.

On May 27th, Alexandre will also moderate “The Day the Lights Go Out,” an interactive keynote built around a simulated regulatory crisis scenario, challenging industry leaders to react live to the sudden shutdown of major markets.

Later that day, he will present “The World Under One Lens,” a keynote exploring how behavioural data at an aggregator scale is reshaping the industry’s understanding of player behaviour, game performance, and global market trends.

Beyond the conference stage

Alongside the conference agenda, Alea will once again sponsor the Ice Bath & Yoga/Breathwork session on the morning of May 26th, led by world-record open water swimmer Neil Agius.

The session has become one of the more unique traditions surrounding the event week, giving attendees a slower start before the pace of the conference takes over.

That same evening, Alea and NEXT.io will host an exclusive CXO dinner at Contessa Restaurant inside The Phoenicia Malta, where selected industry leaders will meet for an evening of conversation, vegetarian dining, cocktails, and live music ahead of the conference opening.

Supporting the Malta community

To close the week, Alea will also attend the BGaming Charity Gala on May 29th in support of DAR Bjorn, the Maltese neurological home founded by ALS advocate Bjorn FormMosa.

“I came to the DAR Bjorn gala last year not knowing very much about Bjorn or the foundation. And then I saw him there, in his bed, while we were all standing on our two legs having a good time. That changes you.

You can’t unsee it. We take so much for granted, the body working, getting up in the morning, walking across the room. Bjorn is fighting for all of that and still showing up. I’m coming back because I believe I have to. If you’re in Malta that week and you’re on the fence, come. There’s something about that room that stays with you,” said Alexandre Tomic, Founder of Alea.

Representing Alea in Malta will be Alexandre Tomic alongside members of the company’s Business Development, Partnerships, Account Management, and Marketing teams.

Event Schedule

NEXT Focus: Start-Up & Investor Day – May 26
NEXT.io Valletta – May 27 & 28
BGaming Charity Gala – May 29

Isle of Man secures Royal Assent for Data Asset Foundations law

The Isle of Man’s Data Asset Foundations legislation has received Royal Assent, bringing into law what the government and partners describe as the world’s first statutory framework for recognising and managing governed data assets.

With Royal Assent granted, the programme moves into implementation. Digital Isle of Man said the next phase includes developing a Data Asset Register, drafting supporting regulations, and building the operational systems needed to run the framework.

A central element is a statutory Data Asset Register intended to record, classify and oversee recognised data assets. Digital Isle of Man said consultation on the register and registrar model has already taken place and industry feedback is being used to shape regulations and operational guidance.

Tim Johnston MHK, Minister for Enterprise, said:

‘Receiving Royal Assent marks a proud and historic moment for the Isle of Man and reflects years of dedicated work to develop a concept that did not previously exist anywhere in the world and bring it fully into law.

‘As the first jurisdiction in the world to fully establish a framework of this kind, the Isle of Man is demonstrating what becomes possible when innovation, collaboration and regulatory agility come together with clear long-term ambition.’

Aga Strandskov, Head of Data Strategy at Digital Isle of Man, said:

‘Many organisations already recognise data as a major business asset but have lacked the legal certainty needed to use it with confidence. That’s exactly what this new legislation enables.

‘The focus now turns to building the wider ecosystem, operational capability and practical implementation needed to support the next phase of the programme. The Register, supporting regulations and operational infrastructure are all active workstreams already progressing at pace.

‘For businesses, this creates real commercial opportunities that have previously been difficult to support within existing legal and operational models, from governed AI training datasets and trusted cross-organisational collaboration through to new approaches around data-sharing, financing and value creation.’

John Bottega, President at EDM Association, said:

‘Globally, organisations are increasingly looking for clearer structures around how valuable data can be governed, shared and used responsibly.

‘The Isle of Man taking this step reflects a growing shift towards more mature and scalable approaches to trusted data governance that support both innovation and accountability.’
