EvenBet Gaming launches new poker network for South America
Leading online gaming software developer EvenBet Gaming has rolled out a new poker network across South and Latin America, breathing fresh life into the vertical for loyal and largely untapped audiences across the region’s emerging markets.
This breakthrough launch enables EvenBet’s growing group of operator-partners to target players in established igaming jurisdictions, such as Colombia, with further expansion soon to follow across Peru, Argentina and Brazil. Early adopters, including Apuesta Rapida, MiJugada and online casino JugarPrimero, have already been impressed by EvenBet’s world-class omnichannel platform, which offers over 32 different games types.
Eight standalone poker rooms and casino operators have joined the new network, with several more deployments scheduled for January alone. Featuring individual online poker projects, alongside existing casino and sportsbook partners, the network’s flexibility is generating proven traction across the igaming spectrum, with everyone from start-ups to established operators already successfully integrated.
EvenBet’s state-of-the-art technology and functionality allow for a simple API integration, with other features including a seamless wallet and a full user database, all founded on a continually upgraded and localised UI. In addition, EvenBet poker rooms have a flexible front end which allows them to be customised to any operator’s specific branding.
Dmitry Starostenkov, EvenBet Gaming CEO, said: “This landmark launch puts the exclamation mark on a year of highlights for EvenBet. The new network seamlessly scales and fits with all types of project – for example, increasing revenue for existing casinos, while also providing sufficient liquidity for any new players on the market. It’s an exciting and ambitious mission, as we bid to become the number-one poker software supplier for South and Latin America, especially as regulation rolls out in countries like Peru, Argentina and Brazil. Our first operators are already up and running with their poker room, while the initial feedback that we’ve received at summits, such as SAGSE Buenos Aires, has been hugely encouraging.
“We’ve recently reached another milestone with over 80 clients’ projects now active worldwide across established and emerging markets, demonstrating a remarkable 400% growth rate in just three years and optimising the vertical for a huge continent of loyal and enthusiastic poker players. It all underscores our determination to diversify both the product and platforms of industry leaders across the globe, boosting engagement and retention for operators as we go.
“When you base much of your business model around emerging markets, a key focus for us at EvenBet, flexibility and localisation remain the cornerstones. I firmly believe poker to be the most attractive and reliable game for driving improved dwell-time, comparing favourably with other casino, slots and table games through its inherent reliance on genuine skill, wit and knowledge. These unique attributes will also serve to attract the next generation of poker players.
“Poker is a proven cross-channel tool, enriched by EvenBet’s exciting multi-format gameplay, which is benefitting operators across the globe. With so much core technological evolution already behind us, we now look forward to growing in accordance with those advances. ICE London is our next stop on the conference circuit and we look forward to catching up with existing partners and meeting new clients with whom we can broaden our mutual horizons. Come visit us at stand S3-200.”

“Stories”, a new feature design to elevate sportsbook engagement and promotional visibility from BETBY
BETBY, the leading sportsbook provider, has announced the launch of Stories, a new feature designed to transform how operators present promotions and key events to their players.
Inspired by the widely adopted Stories format seen across social media platforms, the feature introduces a familiar, intuitive way for bettors to discover and engage with content directly within the sportsbook interface.
As competition for user attention continues to intensify, operators face the ongoing challenge of delivering promotions and updates in a way that cuts through the noise without overwhelming the user experience.
Stories addresses this by offering a dynamic, swipeable format that brings key content — such as bonuses, tournaments, major sporting events, and boosted odds — into a more engaging and accessible space.
Fully integrated into BETBY’s sportsbook environment, Stories enables bettors to seamlessly browse through short, interactive content cards, mirroring the mechanics they already use daily on social platforms.
This familiarity plays a key role in driving immediate interaction, lowering the barrier to engagement, and creating additional touchpoints between operators and their users.
By introducing a format that naturally encourages exploration, Stories helps increase visibility across promotional campaigns while supporting higher engagement rates.
Each new Story acts as a trigger for curiosity, prompting users to click through and discover new offers or events, ultimately contributing to improved promo turnover.
The feature feels particularly intuitive to younger demographics, who are already accustomed to this style of interaction.
By aligning sportsbook UX with established digital behaviors, BETBY allows operators to connect with these audiences in a more organic and impactful way.
“Stories is about meeting users where they already are, in terms of how they consume content,” said Aglaja Geta, Head of UX & Analytics at BETBY.
“We wanted to introduce a format that feels instantly familiar, while giving operators a powerful new way to highlight their most important promotions and events.
It creates a smoother, more engaging experience that encourages interaction without adding complexity to the platform.”
From an operational perspective, Stories offers a streamlined way to enhance the front-end experience without requiring structural changes to the sportsbook.
The feature integrates seamlessly, allowing operators to enrich their content strategy while maintaining a clean and intuitive interface.

Aviator LLC
Aviator Studio Brazil wins two consecutive instances in São Paulo appeal court against SPRIBE injunction
- Another attempt by SPRIBE to mislead the industry fails as two consecutive instances reject requested injunction
- Decision allows Aviator Brasil to continue operating while the court examines the broader AVIATOR trademark dispute
Aviator Studio Brazil has secured two consecutive court decisions in São Paulo, Brazil, rejecting attempts by SPRIBE to impose an injunction on its operations.
The rulings, delivered by the São Paulo Court of Appeals (2nd Reserved Chamber of Business Law) on 16 April, were in favour of the defendants overall. The court rejected the injunction request against the group, allowing Aviator Studio Brazil to continue operating in the market with partners such as Foggo Entertainment (Blaze) while the broader trademark dispute is examined through the normal judicial process.
Contextualising Separate Proceedings
This victory in the group proceedings follows an announcement by SPRIBE on 15 April regarding a separate matter involving NSX Betnacional. Aviator LLC clarified that neither the company nor the operator were aware of those specific proceedings initially. As soon as that separate matter became known, Aviator Studio Brazil immediately took action to assume responsibility for defending the legitimate use of the brand, providing NSX Betnacional with all legal support required.
Key Court Findings
The Court of Appeals based its decision on the following key findings:
- Lack of likelihood of success on the merits: While SPRIBE claims exclusive ownership of the “AVIATOR” trademark, the court found substantial controversy regarding the validity of those rights both domestically and internationally.
- Absence of irreparable harm: The court determined there is no imminent or irreparable harm that would justify immediate intervention.
- Valid licensing: The court emphasised that Aviator Studio Brazil has been commercially operating under the “AVIATOR” mark based on a licence from Aviator LLC, the regularity and effects of which shall be examined during the proceedings.
Protecting the AVIATOR Ecosystem
Aviator Studio Brazil joined the proceedings and supported its operator partners, including Foggo Entertainment (Blaze) by fulfilling all indemnity and defence obligations under its Software Licence Agreement.
The company has affirmed that it stands fully behind its partners, taking responsibility to defend, indemnify, and hold them harmless in relation to the use of the AVIATOR brand and product. This reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to protecting its partners and the integrity of the AVIATOR ecosystem.
In relation to the NSX Betnacional matter, Aviator LLC confirmed that neither it nor Betnacional were aware of the proceedings initially.
As soon as the matter became known, Aviator Studio Brazil immediately took action to support its partner Betnacional and assume responsibility for defending the legitimate use of the AVIATOR brand.
International Context
Aviator LLC stated that these outcomes reinforce its long-standing position that attempts to secure early-stage injunctions are not reflective of the merits of the case. This follows earlier proceedings in the United Kingdom High Court, where an interim injunction obtained by SPRIBE was clarified as a narrow procedural step with no bearing on ownership or the final outcome of the dispute.
With no findings made against Aviator LLC’s underlying rights in Brazil and courts declining to grant urgent relief, the company continues its operations while remaining confident in its legal position as proceedings progress across multiple jurisdictions.
Commenting on the decision, George Pruidze, CEO at Aviator Studio, said: “Following two consecutive victories in both the trial court and appeal courts in São Paulo, it is clear there is no basis for the urgent measures sought by SPRIBE. Aviator Studio Brazil continues to operate lawfully under licence, and we remain fully committed to supporting our partners and defending the AVIATOR brand wherever necessary.
“As similar actions by SPRIBE continue to trigger proceedings in Brazil, including the ongoing matter involving Betnacional, we will continue to stand behind our partners and ensure the legitimate use of the AVIATOR brand is protected. We are confident that the same facts and legal position will continue to prevail as these cases progress.”

The power of sweepstakes: how Infingame brings strategic value to the iGaming market
Infingame is strengthening its position in one of the fastest-growing segments of the iGaming industry, leveraging deep expertise in sweepstakes to help operators and game developers unlock new growth opportunities.
Over the past year, sweepstakes have moved from a niche concept to a major focus area, particularly in North America, where the model has gained significant traction across the US, with growing interest in markets such as Canada and Australia. This momentum is being driven by a fundamental shift in how players engage with gaming products.
“Sweepstakes introduce a different kind of experience,” said Dmytro Kryvorchuk, COO at Infingame. “By using token-based systems, the focus moves away from immediate financial outcomes and towards entertainment, progression, and longer player sessions.”
Infingame has positioned itself as a bridge between traditional iGaming and the sweepstakes ecosystem. While its aggregation platform connects operators to over 150 game providers, only a limited number currently offer sweepstakes-adapted content. To address this gap, Infingame works closely with studios to support the transition.
“Developing for sweepstakes is not a simple port of existing games,” Dmytro Kryvorchuk noted. “Studios must rethink everything, from language and UX to mechanics and compliance. Terms like ‘bet’ or ‘cash’ often need to be replaced entirely, and dual-currency logic must be built into the core experience.”
Infingame supports this process through technical integration, regulatory guidance, and a streamlined API that allows developers to adapt and scale content efficiently. The company has also played an active role in mentoring providers through the adaptation process, accelerating their entry into the sweepstakes market and expanding the available content pool for operators.
This collaborative approach has enabled Infingame to build a strong foothold in North America, working alongside some of the region’s largest sweepstakes operators. As a result, new clients can be onboarded quickly, with access to relevant content and practical expertise from day one.
A key differentiator lies in Infingame’s role beyond aggregation. The company acts as a strategic partner, helping operators navigate the complex and often fragmented regulatory landscape. In North America, where requirements vary significantly between states, compliance remains a central challenge.
“We don’t just provide content, we help operators understand how to structure their platforms correctly,” Kryvorchuk said. “That includes everything from choosing the right mechanics and terminology to connecting them with legal advisors, payment providers, and financial partners who specialise in sweepstakes.”
As the market matures, Infingame continues to invest in expanding its sweepstakes offering. The company is actively onboarding new providers, sharing market insights, and supporting studios in navigating regulatory nuances.
At the same time, Infingame is enhancing its engagement toolkit. Early results have shown measurable increases in player activity and retention, particularly in reactivating dormant users. Building on this momentum, new features such as Challenges are being rolled out to give operators additional ways to drive engagement and differentiate their offering in an increasingly competitive space.
By combining content, technology, and hands-on expertise, Infingame is helping shape the future of sweepstakes, transforming it from an emerging trend into a sustainable, high-value segment of the global iGaming industry.
