Boomerang Partners have announced the main prize for the first stage of their annual Golden Boomerang Awards tournament – a trip to the Wimbledon Championships
It’s time to reveal the cards for the first prize for participants of the Golden Boomerang Awards, the annual affiliate traffic tournament from Boomerang Partners. The winner of the first stage (Kickoff), which runs from April 3 to June 9, 2026, will be able to attend the Wimbledon Championships (June 29 – July 12, 2026).
The status of Wimbledon
Wimbledon is one of the most prestigious and oldest tennis competitions in the world, one of the four Grand Slam tournaments. It is held annually in June–July in London on grass courts. Wimbledon is known for its traditions (including a strict all-white dress code for players) and a unique atmosphere. Winning Wimbledon is considered one of the highest achievements in professional tennis. This tournament is the benchmark of status and prestige.
Through participation in the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026, affiliate teams get a unique opportunity to attend a top-tier sporting event in the world. But it’s important to remember that this prize is tied exclusively to the first stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards. Affiliate teams that miss the Kickoff will lose their chance at Wimbledon forever. Stage 2 will have a different prize.
Key sports events during the first stage
The first stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 falls during a busy period for sports. It includes the NHL and NBA playoffs, the final matches of European football competitions, and the end of domestic league seasons, as well as the KHL playoffs and the IIHF World Championship. Events like the World Team Table Tennis Championships and Roland Garros also take place during this time. So, affiliates have a strong run of major events to work with.
How to participate
All Golden Boomerang Awards participants who join the tournament before or during the first stage (April 3 – June 9, 2026) can compete for the trip to Wimbledon Championships. The earlier a team registers, the more points it can accumulate. To do this, they must drive traffic to brands within Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio. In the first stage, participants will receive 2 points for each Sport FTD and 1 point for each Casino FTD.
Bonus mechanics
Boomerang Partners has prepared bonus mechanics for participants in the Golden Boomerang Awards. These allow affiliate teams to significantly improve their position on the leaderboard and catch up with – or even overtake – the leaders, even if they joined the tournament later:
- Last Minutes Winner: 3x points on all points during the final 7 days of the stage (June 3–9).
- Lucky Five: +5 points for hitting the KPI of 10 Casino FTDs per week (valid throughout the entire first stage).
Additionally, each participant can share information about the tournament on their social media and receive 10 points for doing so (the SHOW YOUR VOICE mechanic).
Mystery Box
In addition to the main prize of the first stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards, Boomerang Partners will also run a series of Mystery Box giveaways throughout the stage. Active affiliate teams will have a chance to be selected for these draws based on their participation during the tournament, while inactive teams will not be eligible unless they increase their activity. This creates additional opportunities to earn valuable rewards, even for teams not at the top of the leaderboard.
What’s inside the Mystery Box? That’s a secret – for now.
Kristina Shkredova, Affiliate Team Lead at Boomerang Partners: “Wimbledon is something people in our industry instantly recognize. It’s the kind of experience you don’t normally buy with performance bonuses or commissions, no matter how well you’re doing. For affiliate teams, it’s about stepping into a completely different level of access and atmosphere, where sport, tradition, and status meet. That’s exactly the kind of reward we want to offer – something that reflects real achievement, not just numbers on a dashboard. And it makes the competition feel much more personal.”
Register on the official Golden Boomerang Awards website, and drive FTDs to compete for unique sports experiences. There’s no time to wait – competitors are already racking up points.

Belatra, a leading developer of innovative online slots, has unveiled its latest high-stakes release, Cops vs Robbs—a 5-reel slot that plunges players into the classic battle between law enforcement and daring outlaws. Noir-inspired visuals, a gripping soundtrack, and dynamic gameplay bring the crime thriller to life.
Choose Your Side: Cops or Robbers
Players can stake their allegiance before spinning:
- Cops Mode: Smoother gameplay with frequent, consistent wins.
- Robbers Mode: High-volatility action for players chasing big payouts.
Multiplier Wilds & Shootout Mechanics
Wild symbols expand to cover entire reels and grow multipliers with each step—up to x5 for Cops and x10 for Robbers. Multiple Wilds on a payline combine values for explosive wins, and landing five simultaneously triggers the 10,000x grand prize.
The Shootout mechanic dynamically drops high-value Coin symbols (Cops) or forces random winning combos (Robbers), keeping the action unpredictable.
Hold & Win Bonus and Buy Feature
During Hold & Win, cash and power-up symbols lock for three spins. Special tools like the Revolver Drum and Thompson Submachine Gun double coin values, while Coin Merge consolidates full lines for larger payouts.
The Buy Bonus menu offers direct access to three options: a Cop-themed Hold & Win for consistent returns, a Robber-themed version for high ceilings, or a guaranteed Wild spin delivering 1–5 Wilds with 10,000x win potential.
Misha Voinich, Head of Business Development at Belatra, commented:
“Cops vs Robbs is a fully customisable gambling experience where players can adjust their risk and reward. With Multiplier Wilds, Shootout mechanics, and Hold & Win bonuses, every spin has the potential to change the plot, just like the best crime thrillers.”

GR8 Tech World-Cup-Ready Series: Sportsbook Upgrades to Convert Tournament Traffic Into Results
Attracting World Cup traffic is easy, but converting that traffic into bets—and retaining those players—depends on the sportsbook experience. GR8 Tech is addressing this with a major overhaul of ULTIM8 Sportsbook, its flagship sports betting solution.
“The World Cup moves a lot of money regardless of operators,” said Dinos Doxiadis, Head of Sportsbook Business at GR8 Tech. “The challenge is retaining it. Players who can find and place bets efficiently during the group stage are the ones you keep.”
Seamless Navigation and Reduced Friction
The upgraded sportsbook separates Live and Pre-Match flows, adds dedicated Sport and Tournament Lobbies, and introduces multiple entry points to bring players directly to their desired content. This reduces friction and boosts conversion. The widget-based architecture now spans the redesigned navigation, allowing operators to manage layouts, campaigns, and featured markets without developer support—crucial during fast-moving tournaments.
Enhanced Bet Builder for Football
GR8 Tech expands Bet Builder with Corners, Cards, and Player Props for football, offering more combinations per slip. Longer sessions and more complex bets drive higher margins and deeper engagement.
Bet Booster Promotions Embedded in the Product
Odds-based promotions via Bet Booster provide boosted markets inside the sportsbook without eroding margin. Integrated with segmentation and the new navigation, the tool enhances player retention and activation while leveraging Bet Builder for maximum impact.
Sharper Odds, Controlled Margin
A dedicated Enhanced Prices market allows operators to offer competitive odds for football without impacting promotional mechanics on the standard market. This structural separation balances sharp pricing with profitability.
Ready for the Tournament
Several upgrades are already live, with the remainder rolling out before the World Cup begins. ULTIM8 Sportsbook offers operators a proven revenue stream with minimal operational overhead, making it a key tool for the year’s biggest betting window.
GR8 Tech.
GR8 Tech is an award-winning provider of sportsbook and iGaming solutions, including ULTIM8 Sportsbook, Infinite Casino Aggregation, and proprietary affiliate management via Aff.Tech. Focused on operator-first innovation, GR8 Tech has delivered measurable results in over 100 markets and was named Platform Provider of the Year at the SBC Awards 2025.
