Bragg Gaming Group, a leading global B2B iGaming content and technology provider, announced it has reached an agreement with its lenders, certain entities controlled by Doug Fallon, to repay USD 5 million of its outstanding USD 7 million secured promissory note and to extend the maturity of the remaining USD 2 million until June 6, 2025 (the Note).

The company is in the process of securing a new revolving credit facility from a third-party lender. This facility is expected to offer more favorable terms than the existing Note, including lower borrowing costs and improved drawdown flexibility.

“This partial repayment and extension will further strengthen our balance sheet and reflects our confidence in the business. With a reduced need for working capital support, we’re focused on finalizing a new facility to secure standby credit, allowing for greater financial flexibility and enabling us to pursue strategic growth opportunities,” said Robbie Bressler, CFO of Bragg.

All other terms of the original Note remain unchanged. Bragg intends to repay the remaining USD 2 million balance on or before the amended June 6, 2025 maturity date.

“We are thrilled to be reporting a strong start to 2025, showing that we are executing on our strategy and moving the metrics that we believe are most important to shareholder value,” Matevž Mazij, CEO of Bragg commented: “During the quarter we continued to improve our product mix, generating a greater proportion of revenue from high-margin proprietary content. In turn, this contributed to a higher Adjusted EBITDA margin, which combined with careful cost controls demonstrate operational leverage and increased cash generation.

“As is widely reported, the Netherlands market has slowed in recent quarters due to regulatory pressures, a challenge faced by Bragg as with all operators and suppliers who serve this regulated market. I’m pleased that Bragg has shown resilience under these pressures and is reducing its exposure to the Netherlands while seeing strong growth in markets such as the United States and Brazil. Excluding the Netherlands, revenue growth year-over-year came in at a robust 27%1, driven in part by triple-digit growth in the U.S.”

Bragg Gaming Group announced the acquisition of a strategic equity stake in, and the signing of an exclusive content partnership with RAPIDPLAY LTD (RapidPlay), a specialist Brazilian game development studio renowned for its localized, high-performance online casino content tailored to Brazilian and the broader Latin American market.

Founded by a team of veteran iGaming experts with deep roots in the region, RapidPlay has rapidly built a reputation for delivering premium, culturally attuned casino content that resonates with local Brazilian and Latin American players.

Under the terms of the agreement, Bragg receives an equity stake in RapidPlay and has entered into an exclusive commercial distribution agreement with RapidPlay at standard market terms.

RapidPlay’s highly efficient cost development model for producing high-quality, localized content is particularly attractive to Bragg, as it supports rapid scalability and margin efficiency—especially valuable in emerging markets like Brazil and the broader LatAm market.

Pursuant to the terms of the agreement with RapidPlay, Bragg also has an option to acquire a controlling interest in RapidPlay, should future strategic conditions align.

All titles developed under this partnership will be powered by Fuze, Bragg’s proprietary engagement technology that features real-time gamification, player retention tools, and promotional capabilities — enhancing both player experience and operator performance.

This partnership builds on Bragg’s rapid expansion in Brazil, where it launched operations on January 1, 2025, and has already partnered with over one-third of the market’s licensed operators.

The Company’s São Paulo office, led by LatAm Regional Director Sara Mosallaee and Senior Account Manager Amanda Alexandrini, delivers fully localized support and expertise to operators across the region.

With Brazil’s newly regulated online casino market expected to generate USD 1.5 billion in 2025, growing to USD 3.7 billion by 2029, Bragg believes that the market could contribute up to 10% of the Company’s total revenue this year—underlining its strategic importance.

Neill Whyte, Chief Commercial Officer of Bragg Gaming Group, said: “This partnership with RapidPlay is more than just an investment — it’s a strategic move that strengthens our differentiated local content proposition.

“The studio combines creative excellence with operational efficiency, making it an ideal partner for our expansion efforts in the region.”
