Pragmatic Solutions, a provider of next-generation iGaming platform technology for regulated markets, announced the integration of LINK Mobility’s SMS communications services.

The integration of LINK Mobility’s real-time communications solution into Pragmatic Solutions’ Player Account Management (PAM) platform empowers iGaming and sportsbook operators with an efficient and effortless way to connect with their players via SMS.

Pragmatic Solutions provides an agile Player Account Management (PAM) platform that is open, modular, scalable, and flexible due to its API-based approach, enabling its clients to extend the core technology through integrations and accelerate their growth.

The Pragmatic Solutions PAM platform allows operators to seamlessly ensure regulatory compliance, handle risk and flexibly manage their brands, promotions and player experiences. Pre-integrated with hundreds of third-party content, payments and service providers, it also supports rapid integration of new services of the operators’ choosing. LINK Mobility further compliments this pre-integrated services catalogue.

The new integration expands these capabilities by enabling Pragmatic Solutions’ licensees to deliver tailored, instant communications that enhance every facet of their customers’ journey, aiming to maximise security and player lifetime value.

With an average opening rate of 98%, SMS is a fast and efficient way to reach players, supporting numerous use-cases such as critical alerts, one-time-passcodes, notifications, marketing campaigns and customer support.

LINK Mobility enables operators to send and receive SMS text messages on a global scale through their enterprise platform and obtain data insights to maximise the impact and ROI of their campaigns.

Robin Jonsson, Sales Director at LINK Mobility, said: “We are excited to join forces with Pragmatic Solutions to expand the reach of our communications services in the iGaming industry. Due to the advantages of our SMS solution, Pragmatic’s clients are now able to maintain the most effective connections with their players on a global scale with LINK Mobility.”

Ashley Lang, CEO at Pragmatic Solutions, said: “We are delighted to add LINK Mobility to the wide range of premium services integrated to our platform and to be able to offer our licensees simple access to their SMS messaging services via our iGaming platform. Through the introduction of this efficient communication solution, we are certain to provide our licensees with a powerful tool that will tighten the relationship with their players and further enrich their engagement strategies.”

1spin4win & Blask report 7 out of 10 top games in Africa are slots

Published

on

The study analyzes key markets across both regions, including South Africa, Nigeria, Ghana, Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina. Using real-time data on game placement and player demand, the research provides a clear view of what content operators prioritize and what resonates most with players. The report also features insights from operators such as BetPawa and MSport, adding industry perspective to the data-driven analysis.

One key finding is that slots continue to dominate across both regions. In Africa, they account for 71% of the Top 30 games featured in casino lobbies, while in Latin America, they make up 67% of the Top 30 games analyzed — outperforming both crash and live formats.

At the same time, the data shows that what operators place in lobbies does not always match what players are actually looking for. Some of the most searched-for games are not prominently featured or are missing from lobbies altogether.

For 1spin4win, this report is part of their broader expansion strategy across Africa and Latin America. The provider began actively extending its presence in these markets in 2025, strengthening partnerships with local aggregators and refining its product strategy to better align with regional player preferences. These include mobile optimization and fast loading and smooth performance even on weak internet connections. In Africa, these efforts led to a 9.2x increase in the number of bets.

Olga Hlukhovskaya, Business Development Director at 1spin4win, “At 1spin4win, we place strong emphasis on working with data. It’s at the core of how we approach product development. We focus on understanding player preferences and making informed decisions that help us deliver experiences that truly resonate with our audience.”

Ilya Batcherikov, Blask CPO, commented, “By aggregating non-branded search data at scale, we help teams understand what players are actually looking for in each market — often before those trends become visible inside the product. This allows operators to move from reactive content strategies to proactive ones, aligning supply with real-time demand and capturing value that would otherwise be missed.”

Full insights from the research are available in the report “What’s hot in LATAM and Africa” on the Blask website.

UK High Court Rejects Legal Challenges Relating to the National Lottery Licence

On 17 April 2026, the UK High Court rejected in full the claims brought by The New Lottery Company Limited (TNLC) and Northern & Shell PLC (N&S) against the Gambling Commission in relation to the award of the Fourth National Lottery Licence.

In summary, the claims alleged that the Gambling Commission had wrongly awarded the Fourth National Lottery Licence to Allwyn, and that instead, TNLC should have won the competition. The claims also alleged that the Gambling Commission and Allwyn had entered into impermissible modifications to the Licence arrangements following the competition.

The lengthy trial of the claims took place in the High Court before Mrs Justice Joanna Smith between 9 October and 2 December 2025, with an additional day on 13 January 2026.

The High Court has now ruled in favour of the Gambling Commission on all of the claims, rejecting the allegations which had been made.

This is an important judgment for the future of The National Lottery. This judgment makes clear that the Gambling Commission ran a fair and robust competition to award the Fourth National Lottery Licence, and that none of the contested changes to the Licence, in the course of its implementation, were substantial or contrary to the relevant procurement regulations.

The judgment gives resounding support to Good Causes by enabling Allwyn, with oversight from the Commission, to continue with their plans of investment in The National Lottery without further distraction.

The National Lottery is one of the world’s largest lotteries and since launching in 1994, National Lottery players have collectively raised more than £52 billion for more than 670,000 Good Causes across the UK, transforming lives and contributing to the arts, sport, heritage and communities.

play’n-go-publishes-2025-sustainability-report-with-emissions-and-governance-updates

Play’n GO has published its 2025 Sustainability Report, framing the year as a milestone as the supplier marks 20 years in the gaming industry. The report covers performance across four pillars—Players, Partners, People and Planet—and positions sustainability as tied to product design, operations, and partner expectations.

On climate reporting, the company said it has “achieved and exceeded” its long-term 90% reduction target for Scope 1 and 2 emissions, and reported a 69% absolute reduction in Scope 3 emissions versus its 2023 base year. Play’n GO also said its total material emissions for 2025 were kept below 500 MTCO2e.

The report also points to a move into land-based delivery. In 2025, Play’n GO said it launched its first land-based gaming solution in partnership with Genting UK, positioning the rollout as part of a “player-first, low-footprint approach” for regulated venues.

On responsible entertainment, the company said it continues to reject game mechanics it believes “compromise player trust or wellbeing,” and highlighted participation in discussions on digital wellbeing and cognitive health, including at the United Nations and G7. “We have always believed that great entertainment should be fun, safe and fair,” said Vanessa Björkbacka, Director of CSR at Play’n GO.

The report also outlines internal development and reporting infrastructure. Play’n GO said 43% of employees engaged in AI-related learning during 2025 and that average training time exceeded seven hours per employee globally. It added that reporting was further aligned to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and World Economic Forum Stakeholder Capitalism Metrics, alongside investment in “secure, AI-supported carbon data management.” “As expectations on transparency and accountability continue to rise, we see it as our responsibility to lead,” Björkbacka added.
