Rank Group announced as first live customer of DoTrust Complete
Department of Trust (dotrust.co.uk), the award-winning provider of financial risk assessments for safer gambling, has launched DoTrust Complete – the first dedicated platform offering end-to-end frictionless and enhanced financial risk checks to support all stages of the player journey.
The company also announced Rank Group plc, one of the UK’s largest online and land-based gaming operators, as the first live customer of the new service.
Gambling operators in the UK until now have had to rely on multiple providers to conduct financial risk, affordability, AML and other compliance and safer gambling assessments on their customers. This has led to complexity, cost and a poor player experience as well as significant regulatory penalties for poor execution. The challenge is set to increase following the UK government’s review of the Gambling Act which is likely to require more frequent vulnerability checks on players even at lower levels of spend which will require frictionless and accurate assessments.
With DoTrust Complete, operators can run all necessary checks in a single platform, including frictionless income and vulnerability tests using the best available public and proprietary data, much of which has not been deployed in the gambling industry before. Operators can even design their own risk methodology and gain full auditability of decisions to ensure proportionality and meet regulatory requirements.
Commenting on the new platform launch, Michael Byrne, DoTrust Chief Operating Officer, said: “We are delighted to officially launch Complete ahead of the expected change in regulation this year. Operators now have a reliable, comprehensive and industry-first service they can rely on to meet all current and future requirements. Complete reduces friction for customers and increases certainty and efficiency for operators.”
Liam Smith, Director of Customer Operations for Rank Interactive, commented: “Rank has always been at the forefront of consumer protection and are constantly seeking ways to improve our player experience within a safe environment. DoTrust Complete is the first tool we have found that has been specifically developed for gambling operators. The efficiency and degree of control which Complete gives is impressive and we are excited to leverage these capabilities in building our business.”

New 5×5 cascading-reels title adds Wild Mushroom chain reactions, multipliers and a Free Spins feature with a Feature Buy option.
PG Soft has released Monkey’s Wild Party, a new video slot set on a 5×5 grid with cascading reels, increasing multipliers and Wild Mushroom symbols that convert adjacent monkey symbols into wilds.
The title’s core mechanic centres on Wild Mushroom symbols that can appear in any spin. When a Wild Mushroom lands, any Gorilla, Baboon or Marmoset symbol touching it horizontally or vertically transforms into its Wild Monkey equivalent. Additional monkey symbols that land on a Wild Monkey can also convert, creating chain reactions across the grid.
After wins are paid, Wild Monkey symbols that contributed to a win become Wild Mushroom symbols in the next round. PG Soft also says there is a chance for an extra Wild Mushroom symbol to be added to the reels at the end of any spin. In the base game, the multiplier starts at x1 each spin and increases by one after each winning combination, following the payout and cascade.
The Free Spins feature triggers with three Free Spin symbols anywhere on the reels and starts with eight free spins, with two extra spins awarded for each additional Free Spin symbol. The multiplier resets to x1 at the start of the feature and increases by one after every winning cascade. A +1 Spin symbol awards an extra free spin during the feature. Players can also access the feature via a Feature Buy option at the displayed price, with PG Soft stating potential wins of up to x10,000 of the initial bet.
PG Soft’s spokesperson commented: “Monkey’s Wild Party is a riot of colour and mischief, taking players into an enchanted jungle where every spin sparks a fresh wave of wild reactions. The Wild Mushroom mechanic is the key to the game, with the climbing multipliers in Free Spins ensuring rewards build with every spin.”
