SCCG Management Announces Extension and Expansion of Strategic Partnership with SnapOdds
SCCG Management, a leading consultancy specializing in the sports betting and gaming industries, announced the extension and significant expansion of its strategic partnership with SnapOdds, the revolutionary sports betting technology product from Snapscreen Inc. This expansion marks a pivotal shift toward a consumer-facing (B2C) strategy, leveraging SnapOdds’ unique TV and streaming content recognition software.
SnapOdds, often referred to as the “Shazam for Sports Betting,” has transformed the way users engage with live sporting events on TV and streaming. Users snap live TV events on their mobile phone, find event-related results and buy or bet. This seamless integration of technology and user experience positions SnapOdds as a frontrunner in the sports betting industry.
As part of this strategic pivot, SCCG Management and SnapOdds are focusing on delivering a B2C app, mobile web and social media presence. The transition towards a B2C approach is underpinned by the anticipated viral spread of the SnapOdds app.
This virality and proven stickiness not only ensures a cost-effective strategy for reaching and retaining new users but also presents a unique opportunity for advertisers and sponsors. By serving game related advertising and sponsorship to highly engaged users at the right time within the app, mobile web and social media presence, SCCG Management and SnapOdds are set to generate substantial cost reduction in player acquisition cost for sports books and other sports related offers like e-commerce.
Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management, said: “Our enhanced collaboration with SnapOdds underscores our commitment to innovation and excellence in the sports betting industry. The shift towards a B2C model opens up unprecedented opportunities for growth, user engagement, and revenue generation. We are excited to pioneer this space, delivering unparalleled experiences for sports fans and creating significant value for our advertisers and sponsors.”
Thomas Willomitzer, Founder and CEO of Snapscreen, said: “Offering Shazam for TV as an app was always on the agenda. The overwhelmingly positive feedback of end users on the one side and the huge monetization opportunity to deliver engaged users at the right time to lower the CAC for betting and e-commerce drives our B2C strategy. We naturally continue to serve and expand our loyal B2B customer base. We are a team of experts in taking offline media interactive. First Radio when I co-founded Last.FM and now TV.”
The strategic expansion of the SCCG Management and SnapOdds partnership is a testament to their commitment to leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine the sports betting landscape. As they embark on this new chapter, the focus will remain on delivering exceptional value to users and stakeholders alike.

Pascal Gaming signs Ronaldinho for football-themed crash and slot titles
First release is Avinho R10, followed by June launch Fortune Ronaldinho as the studio lines up more titles ahead of the World Cup season.
Pascal Gaming has partnered with Brazilian football player Ronaldinho to launch a dedicated portfolio of games inspired by the athlete, the company said on 26 May, 2026.
The planned pipeline includes crash games, slots and additional titles set to roll out through the year. Pascal Gaming said the initiative is aimed at both Brazil and international markets, and will be supported by tournaments, promotional activity and special events tied to the Ronaldinho-branded portfolio.
The first game confirmed is Avinho R10, described as a crash-style title featuring Ronaldinho “above Brazil” in an aviation-themed experience. A second game, Fortune Ronaldinho, is scheduled for release in June and is positioned as a slot-inspired title.
“Ronaldinho is one of the most recognisable and loved football personalities in the world, so for us this collaboration is much more than a game launch. It is a global entertainment project that combines football culture, emotionally engaging gameplay and strong promotional activities ahead of the World Cup,” said Armen Mnaskanian, Head of Sales at SoftConstruct Gaming Content.
Pascal Gaming said it has been expanding its crash game portfolio during 2026 and investing in localised, character-driven content across Latin America, Africa and Asia. The company added that more Ronaldinho-themed titles and marketing campaigns will be revealed in the coming months.
