Ordr Technologies, the leading payments intelligence platform built for live experiences, has announced a new partnership with Resorts World Las Vegas, the $4.3 billion landmark resort on the Las Vegas Strip, to power frictionless, unified payment processing across Zouk Nightclub and Ayu Dayclub, two of its most iconic destinations.

Named Best Nightclub in Las Vegas three years running by Las Vegas Weekly and ranked among the world’s top clubs by DJ Mag, Zouk Nightclub hosts world-class performers and draws tens of thousands of guests each month. Ayu Dayclub extends that experience into the daylight hours, offering a luxury poolside environment that demands the same operational precision as its nighttime counterpart. Together, they represent some of the highest-velocity transaction environments in hospitality, where payment speed, reliability, and guest data directly impact revenue.

Ordr’s platform uses AI to automatically unify every layer of the transaction stack, POS, payment processing, fees, consumer protection, and guest intelligence into a single system, delivering visibility across every revenue center, reduced friction at the point of sale, and analytics that turn raw transaction data into actionable intelligence.

“Zouk and Ayu are world-class operations and represent exactly the kind of venue Ordr was built for: high-volume, multi-concept environments where the guest experience is the product and every second of friction costs revenue. This validates that unified payment intelligence isn’t just a sports and arena story. It’s the future of hospitality at every level, and Resorts World is leading the way,” said Ryan Bott, CEO of Ordr.

Ordr Delivers Intelligence at the Speed of Hospitality

At a property where, in a single night, tens of thousands of guests move fluidly between the casino, concert hall, pool deck, and more than 40 dining venues, payment data is among the most powerful signals available. Ordr turns that signal into strategy.

For Resorts World Las Vegas, the Ordr platform delivers three immediate operational advantages:

• Unified transaction visibility across every venue. Ordr connects payment data from every revenue center on property, eliminating reconciliation gaps, blind spots, and the lag between transaction and insight.

• Frictionless guest experiences. Whether a guest is ordering at a poolside bar, settling a tab, or purchasing merchandise before a headliner, Ordr ensures every transaction completes seamlessly. No friction. No failed payments. No lost revenue.

• Real-time guest intelligence. Ordr’s platform transforms in-venue and digital transaction data into unified guest profiles, enabling Resorts World Las Vegas to understand spend behavior, identify high-value guests, and personalize the experience at scale.

This partnership also arrives as Ordr prepares to launch its intelligence suite later this year, expanding from payment processing into real-time venue analytics, and consumer intelligence purpose-built for large-format hospitality properties like Resorts World Las Vegas.

PartyPoker has appointed former WBC Cruiserweight World Champion Tony Bellew as a brand ambassador for the remainder of 2026, with appearances tied to the operator’s live PartyPoker Tour and online poker offering.

The company said Bellew will be “a regular face” at its remaining UK tour stops this season following an earlier appearance at the PartyPoker Tour Birmingham. Bellew will also take part in online activity linked to the PartyPoker schedule.

“I had such a great time at the PartyPoker Tour Birmingham. The atmosphere, the people and the passion for the game were incredible. I’m really excited to be joining the PartyPoker team for the rest of the year, getting involved at the live events, meeting players and seeing where the cards take me,” Bellew said.

PartyPoker said Bellew is scheduled to attend each remaining UK stop on the 2026 PartyPoker Tour: London in July, Glasgow in August, Cork in November, and London in December. The operator also referenced a series of exclusive online events running alongside the live calendar.

Arizona regulator orders five operators to stop alleged illegal gambling activity

Cease-and-desist letters cite alleged felonies and underage access tied to BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator.

The Arizona Department of Gaming said it has issued cease-and-desist orders to five online platforms—BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator—after investigations that the Department says involved alleged illegal gambling activity and underage access in Arizona.

In its announcement, the Department said each enforcement action alleges conduct giving rise to three felonies under Arizona law: promotion of gambling, illegal control of an enterprise, and money laundering. The agency cited Arizona’s prohibition on gambling unless specifically authorized (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Tit. 13, Ch. 33) and said the legal gambling age in the state is 21.

“Arizona is taking decisive action against illegal gambling operators that put Arizonans at risk,” said Jackie Johnson, Department Director. “Our top priority is protecting Arizonans and I’m grateful for the efforts of our intelligence unit led by Chief Law Enforcement Officer Doug Jensen to do just that. Through these cease-and-desist orders we are putting operators on notice: their conduct runs contrary to Arizona law and they must stop promoting illegal gambling.”

The Department’s letters describe different alleged violations by operator. For BetOpenly, the Department said peer-to-peer gambling rules prohibit third-party benefit, and alleged the platform benefited via a commission structure while enabling event wagering and daily fantasy sports contests without the required state licenses, including availability to underage Arizonans. For Bookmaker, the Department said its investigation found wagering on horse racing, casino games, and sports betting without an event wagering license or an advanced deposit wagering provider license, adding that online casino games are not legal in Arizona.

For Club WPT Online Poker, the Department alleged the platform enabled individuals under 21 in Arizona to enter pay-to-play online poker tournaments for prizes while using deceptive “no purchase necessary” language; the Department said online poker is illegal in Arizona. For Kutt Inc., the Department said Arizona “social” gambling prohibits third-party benefit and directed the operator to stop allowing Arizona users to deposit money and wager on sports, politics, pop culture, and casino-style games. For Raffle Creator, the Department said the operator did not meet requirements that allow Arizona nonprofits to conduct lawful raffles and alleged it allowed people under 21 to purchase tickets for prize chances.

The Department said the notified entities are directed to immediately stop all gambling operations and activities in Arizona “whether through mobile applications, online, or otherwise,” and to cease any future illegal gambling in the state. It added that future actions may include criminal charges or civil action against entities, principals, and employees, and that operators “may be subject to a potential award of restitution” and forfeiture of monies acquired due to the alleged conduct.
