PLANETPAY365 AND S.S. LAZIO PRESENTED AT OLYMPIC STADIUM THE PROJECT TO SUPPORT CHILDREN FROM SO.SPE NON-PROFIT ORGANISATION

The multiservice platform, partner of the Biancocelesti team, will give away a stage of the 2022 Summer Camp to 11 children from the So.Spe. charity
Football and solidarity took once again the stage at Olympic Stadium. On the occasion of Lazio-Verona, last Saturday, a Corporate Social Responsibility initiative was presented by PlanetPay365 – the multi-service platform owned by Planet Entertainment-SKS365 Group – together with S.S. Lazio and the non-profit organisation So.Spe.
The project was unveiled before the kick-off, where 11 children from So.Spe’s group homes received a special ticket, allowing them to participate in the S.S. Lazio 2022 Summer Camp. Thanks to the help of PlanetPay365, the selected children – boys and girls aged between 9 and 14 – will take part in the Abruzzo’s leg in Tagliacozzo (AQ) from the 3rd to the 9th of July. PlanetPay365 will allow them to enjoy the “Full camp” formula and each of them will receive a kit prepared together with So.Spe.
The aim of PlanetPay365 – which with this initiative extends its partnership with S.S. Lazio, in the corporate social responsibility field – is to give children from families in economic and social difficulty the chance to live a lifetime sport and training experience. The Summer Camp, in fact, are focused on football (under the guidance of trainers from the Biancocelesti youth sector), but in addition to training and matches they are also structured to allow children to have fun, make friends and live new experiences in a group, with a view to inclusion and respect for diversity.
The special guests of the Summer Camp went together with the footballers on the pitch, just before the match, and received a facsimile of an “entry ticket” to the summer camp. In addition, In June, an “Open Day” will also be held involving the children of the So.Spe family homes and the company’s employees: in this way, the company’s employees will be giving their contribution to the distribution of sports gadgets and other gifts, as well as organising recreational activities.
“The initiative with S.S. Lazio and the So.Spe Foundation marks the first stage of our global CSR project, which in the coming months will include many other initiatives in Serbia, Austria and Malta, where SKS365 has its offices”, said Brian Dean, Planet Entertainment’s Chief Executive Officer. “It is no coincidence that last Saturday – we celebrated World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, a moment to reflect on inclusion and respect for differences. As a company with employees from many different cultures and dozens of different nationalities, the promotion of equality is a fundamental pillar of our mission, as well as the support for children in need, which we want to help through sport. We see sport as an opportunity to build new friendships, help children realise their dreams and give them hope for a better future. Through our CSR plan, we connect with local communities in the countries where SKS365 is present and, with the help of our partners and the commitment of our employees, we provide support and resources to make these children’s dreams come true. I sincerely thank the invaluable support and collaboration of So.Spe and S.S. Lazio and I firmly believe that this is just the first stage of a long and fantastic journey together”.
“In many years of activity with our foundation, this is the first time ever we have received such a gift” – said sister Paola, the nun founder of the So.Spe foundation. “Thanks to the PlanetPay365 initiative, 11 children of our community will be living this summer a unique and unforgettable experience, which I believe will have a great impact on their development and personal growth. I hope this is just the first of many other projects that will run together with PlanetPay365 and S.S. Lazio, with the goal to enable the dreams of these guys and help those less fortunate to make their aspirations come true”.
“Once again, the S.S. Lazio – said President Claudio Lotito – wants to concretely affirm the values of solidarity and respect for people, an ideal that has always been part of the Biancocelesti DNA. We want to do it by bringing together young people through sport, that has the power to break down every wall and difficulty. I wish great fun to the girls and boys who will be at the Summer Camp: may it be an educational experience for them, where they can develop serenity and lightheartedness and meet new friends. The smile and the desire to be together is something that should never be taken away from the youngest”, Lotito concluded.

Expanse Studios (GMGI) Obtains Croatian iGaming Certification

Expanse Studios, the B2B game development division of Golden Matrix Group Inc. (NASDAQ: GMGI), has received official certification from Croatia’s Ministry of Finance for its flagship game Super Heli, with additional titles in the company’s 56-game portfolio expected to receive approval in the coming weeks for the EU member state.
The certification marks a strategic entry into a market that generated US$484.70m in 2024, with projected growth at a CAGR of 8.4% during 2024-2030. Super Heli, Expanse’s most popular crash-style game, becomes the first of the studio’s titles approved for the Croatian market, paving the way for broader portfolio distribution.
Tapping Into High-Growth European Market
Croatia represents a compelling opportunity for B2B gaming suppliers, with the Online Casinos segment alone projected at US$218.10m in 2024. According to iGamingToday’s latest market research, Croatia’s gambling market will reach €720.42 million by 2025, making it one of Europe’s fastest-growing regulated markets.
Among the key market benefits are:
- Accelerating digital adoption – Internet penetration jumped from 76% in 2020 to 83% in 2023
- Over 20.6 million tourist arrivals in 2023 following Schengen Zone entry
- Over 500,000 Croatians expected to engage in regular online gambling by 2027
Strategic Value for the Company
The certification strengthens Expanse Studios’ European footprint at a critical juncture. With 56 proprietary titles and 500+ B2B partners globally, Expanse is expected to capture a meaningful share in the growing EU market.
“Croatia certification is more than market access—it’s validation of our content quality and compliance capabilities in demanding EU jurisdictions,” said Damjan Stamenkovic, CEO of Expanse Studios. “With our flagship title Super Heli already approved and more games in the pipeline, we’re very excited for the opportunities this markets brings us”
Competitive Advantage in Regulated Markets
Croatia’s regulatory framework favors established, compliant B2B providers. Operators must obtain licenses requiring significant capital investment, and only licensed casino games operators who have at least one brick-and-mortar casino can offer online gambling. This creates high barriers to entry and positions certified B2B suppliers like Expanse as essential partners for operators.
