Cyprus National Betting Authority to Hold 7th Safer Gambling Week from October 7 to 13
For the 7th year in a row, the National Betting Authority (NBA) will hold the 7th annual Safer Gambling Week from October 7 to 13, 2024, under the theme “Safety: The Real Hero in Every Game.”
Now in its seventh year, Safer Gambling Week has become a pivotal event in the industry, bringing together a wide range of stakeholders committed to promoting safer gambling practices. The week is dedicated to raising awareness among both players and the general public about the importance of safe gambling behaviors. Throughout the week, information will be disseminated regarding the tools available for self-protection, the risks associated with problem gambling and the gambling-related harms, as well as resources for those in need of support or treatment.
The 7th Safer Gambling Week will kick-off, as every year, with the Safer Gambling Conference featuring distinguished academics and industry leaders. Following the conference, a series of events will take place, including presentations, educational seminars, hands-on workshops and interactive sessions, all designed to educate the public on maintaining safer gambling behaviour.
NBA Chairwoman Ioanna Fiakkou said: “Safer Gambling Week is a key element of our ongoing strategy to enhance public awareness of safer gambling. We are pleased to see growing participation each year and an increasing number of organizations supporting this important cause. The progress we have made in raising awareness is evident, as society is now much more informed about safer gambling practices than when we first launched this initiative. Our ultimate goal is to prevent gambling-related harms and to foster a safer environment for everyone involved.”

Spinmatic updates Plata o Plomo with Hold&Win bonus overhaul
Spinmatic has announced Plata o Plomo Hold&Win, a new iteration of its Plata o Plomo slot built around a revised Hold&Win bonus feature.
The company said it has changed how bonus-stage winnings are determined compared with the original game’s “random rewarding system.” In the updated version, Spinmatic said “guesswork” has been removed and that “every player now operates within a clearly defined multiplier framework.”
Spinmatic is also adding what it calls a “Super Win” incentive to the bonus journey. The company said that by reaching the end of the 3rd stage, “players are now guaranteed a significant payout.”
Mechanically, Spinmatic said the title follows its earlier Hold&Win integration in Frank Pantera, but scales the feature with a larger coin respin grid. While Frank Pantera used a 3×5 grid, Plata o Plomo Hold&Win uses an expanded 4×5 grid (20 slots), which Spinmatic said is designed to increase coin-landing opportunities and align the bonus feature visually with the base game reel structure.
Spinmatic did not disclose launch markets, operator partners, certification status, RTP/volatility data, or performance metrics for the updated title.
