Betable Group has launched Newshore, a payment processing platform positioned as a unified payments layer for iGaming operators.

The company said operators connected to Newshore can accept payments via credit cards, bank transfers and e-wallets through a single tool, without setting up multiple accounts or working with different services.

Newshore is led by Operations Director Chris Prentice and Product Manager Jonathan Luke. Prentice previously served as UK General Manager at Grace Gaming, while Luke has worked on digital fraud and risk at Rank Interactive and Lloyds.

Chris Prentice, Operations Director at Newshore, said: “We spoke extensively with iGaming operators and the message was consistent. Payments have become too complex, with too many integrations and too much operational friction.

“Newshore was built to change that. Our platform gives merchants a single, streamlined connection to the payment ecosystem, removing the burden of managing multiple providers while improving efficiency and cost control. It’s about making payments infrastructure simpler, more flexible and ready for global growth.”

Betable Group said Newshore is designed to consolidate integrations and simplify payment operations for merchants, as part of the group’s broader portfolio of platform solutions for iGaming and fintech operators.

Neosurf has reorganised its operations as it prepares to scale products and expand across Europe and the Americas, the cash-to-digital payments provider said.

The company said the updated structure is intended to better support the rollout of “new market-ready products” and help it deliver its payment solutions “on a wider scale.” Neosurf did not disclose what specific organisational changes were made or whether the move affects headcount.

Andrea McGeachin, Global CEO at Neosurf, said: “As we continue to grow our new digital wallet products across Europe and the Americas, it’s important that our organisation evolves alongside our ambitions. Our new structure ensures that we’re built for agility, resilience, and long-term success, and we remain committed to our mission of bridging the gap between cash and digital payments with an optimised foundation that’s built to proactively anticipate and adapt to future regulatory change.”

Neosurf said it will share further updates on its plans “shortly.”

Real-money casual puzzle tournament startup says an EU private investor backed the April 2026 round.

EasyWin, a U.S.-based real-money gaming startup, said it has closed its second seed funding round at a $20 million valuation. The company announced the round in April 2026 and said it was backed by a private investor from the European Union.

The company previously closed its first seed round in December 2025 at a $15.5 million valuation. That round included funding from Velo Partners, Vladimir Nikolsky and several private angel investors.

EasyWin was founded by Ivan Leshkevich, a former executive at mobile game publisher and developer Mamboo Entertainment. The startup, which currently has a team of eight, says it has built a global tournament platform for casual puzzle games with cash prizes and operates across major markets.

Since launching in 2025, EasyWin reported 25% month-over-month growth in user spending and a 4.9 average user rating. It also said it has expanded into 12 countries with localized legal opinions and payment infrastructure, received PayPal approval for its MCC, and completed payments-stack integrations with global providers.

The company also said it has obtained GLI certification “confirming compliance with U.S. regulations for skill-based gaming products.” Leshkevich said: “In the long term, we aim to become a leading global skill-based gaming platform. To achieve this, we focus on a strong product USP and new AI-based dev tools.”
