Videoslots goes live with RAW iGaming in Ontario
Operator partners with leading provider in Canadian province
Online operator Videoslots is to roll out award-winning content from RAW iGaming in Ontario after teaming up with the studio to provide greater choice to players in the region.
RAW iGaming’s Raging Super2Ways was the 10,000th title released by Videoslots last month, paving the way for a deal to be agreed between the two parties.
Videoslots entered Ontario in June having carved out a formidable reputation in Europe as a leading online casino and recently went live with its first TV campaign, which will enhance the operator’s presence in the territory.
Some of RAW iGaming’s most successful titles, including Big Money Bass, Rise of Shinobi and Ave Caesar DynamicWays, are now all readily available across Ontario, all of which continue to prove popular with users.
Since being established in 2011, Videoslots provides players with an unrivalled variety of slots from industry-leading providers across the globe, retaining the honour of being called the world’s largest online casino.
Ulle Skottling, Deputy CEO at Videoslots, said: “To partner with one of Ontario’s leading iGaming providers is fantastic for Videoslots as we look to become market leaders in terms of our choice of games.
“RAW iGaming launched our 10,000th title and we are delighted that our relationship with them will continue to grow within Canada.”
Tom Wood, CEO at RAW iGaming, said: “Videoslots are an award-winning operator and who better to partner with than the biggest operator globally.
“Our portfolio continues to expand across Ontario and the launch with Videoslots will undoubtedly boost the outreach of our titles.”

F*Bastards says it now distributes content via 400+ operators worldwide
F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.
In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.
F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.
“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.

Automation, Data, and Common Sense: How We Make Decisions at BETON
It is difficult to imagine a modern tech business today operating without automation, advanced analytics, and artificial intelligence. This reality is especially pronounced in the fast-paced iGaming industry, where the speed of decision-making, product quality, and marketing efficiency directly shape a company’s competitiveness.
However, over the past few years, a fundamental truth has emerged: technology does not replace people. It makes strong teams even stronger.
At BETON, we actively implement automation, build a robust data-driven culture, and utilize modern analytics tools. Yet, we strive to avoid the common pitfall of blindly trusting algorithms or raw numbers. Ultimately, the responsibility for the business always rests with the human.
- Automation: Where it Helps, and Where it Hinders
When we launched BETON, there was simply no time to build processes manually. The hyper-competitive nature of the iGaming market and our rapid rate of growth demanded immediate, highly efficient solutions. Consequently, critical operational areas were automated right from the start.
The Success Pillars of Automation
- Marketing and Content: In gambling, the speed of campaign deployment, communication personalization, and large-scale content management directly affect ROI. Automation allows us to test hypotheses faster, scale successful solutions, and deploy marketing budgets effectively.
- Customer Support: Players expect immediate resolutions. Automating first-line support, request routing, and standard service scenarios has become an essential element of scaling our business smoothly.
- Product Development Cycle: A digital enterprise cannot evolve without automating development, continuous testing, monitoring, and release management. This forms the bedrock of product speed and quality.
The Automation Pitfall: Removing Human Oversight
A significant mistake many companies make is attempting to automate a process while simultaneously removing human oversight from the system. In our experience, this approach almost always leads to a decline in results.
Key Rule: Automate everything that helps scale the business, but never abandon human control where the cost of an error is too high.
For instance, fully automating customer support while eliminating quality control is a recipe for failure. While AI, chatbots, and automated flows handle volume, without human quality checks, service standards inevitably decline. The same applies to content generation; automated tools accelerate output, but without strict editorial review, the quality and brand voice gradually degrade.
Furthermore, financial management remains one of the most difficult processes to fully automate despite enormous technological progress. At BETON, key financial decisions still undergo expert evaluation to ensure absolute accuracy.
- Data vs. Experience: Why Numbers Don’t Always Have the Answer
While data-driven management is a core principle at BETON—ensuring all major decisions are backed by A/B testing, user research, or hypothesis testing—numbers alone do not tell the whole story.
Over years of market leadership, executives develop what is frequently called intuition. Far from being mystical, intuition is accumulated experience that helps identify patterns long before they surface on dashboards or analytical reports. A truly data-driven approach does not replace experience with numbers; it balances analytics with managerial expertise.
Case Study: Trusting Experience Over Analytics
One of the most telling examples where experience outshone raw data involved our partnership with the Federation of Fishing Sports. At the time, we had virtually no analytical data to confirm the viability of such a collaboration. There were no historical cases or statistical models to rely on. Looked at strictly through an analytical lens, the decision seemed highly questionable.
However, industry experience suggested that this specific partnership possessed immense, long-term potential for strengthening brand trust. We chose to move forward despite the lack of data, and market practice subsequently confirmed it was the right strategic choice.
Data shows us the past and the present, but a leader’s task is to make decisions for the future.
- Who Makes the Final Decision?
When discussing automation and artificial intelligence, the ultimate question invariably arises: Who makes the final decision in a critical situation—the system or the human?
At BETON, the answer is unequivocal: the human.
We have intentionally built a company devoid of an authoritarian, top-down management model. Every manager within our leadership team, from COO to CEO, operates independently and holds full accountability for their business area. By actively utilizing the RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed) matrix framework, executive leadership functions to support and empower teams rather than micromanage individual choices.
Mitigating Risks and Fraud
When dealing with critical operational aspects like fraud, cybersecurity, payments, risk management, or major technical incidents, the automated system serves to discover the problem, aggregate data, and trigger an alert. From there, human expertise takes over completely.
For example, when our system flagged a major sports fraud scheme, automation successfully uncovered the anomalies and compiled the necessary raw data. However, our specialist team handled the investigation from that point forward. They mapped out the mechanism of abuse, assessed potential financial exposure, and promptly executed mitigation measures. Consequently, financial damage was prevented before the situation could escalate.
Conclusion: The Culture Driving BETON
Automation helps find problems faster. Artificial intelligence helps analyze complex data sets. Dashboards help visualize the health of the business.
However, competitive advantage is not created by algorithms alone; it is forged by strong teams who know how to wield technology correctly to achieve elite results. Responsibility must always remain with people—and that is the foundational culture we are building at BETON.
