Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and provider of unique content, has partnered with Konquer, a California based game studio known for their highly original instant-win, crash, and table games.

The collaboration gives Relax Gaming’s wide network of operators access to Konquer’s growing portfolio of games, which have rocked the industry with their new mechanics and themes.

The studio’s debut release, Fortune Cookie Fortunes, invites players to crack open fortune cookies to unlock multipliers while uncovering playful trivia.

The agreement further strengthens Relax Gaming’s Powered By Relax programme, welcoming another forward-thinking studio into the fold. The move expands the breadth of high-quality slot content available to operators while reinforcing Relax’s role as a leading distribution partner for ambitious game developers.

Jennifer Buttigieg, Head of Commercial & Aggregation Partnerships at Relax Gaming, said: “This collaboration reinforces Relax Gaming’s status as a trusted global aggregation partner, empowering both established and up-and-coming studios with the reach, technology, and expertise needed to expand their market presence. We’re delighted to have them on board with us.”

Ashford Kneitel, Chief Executive Officer at Konquer, said: “Konquer’s mission is to create the coolest games ever played—full stop. Partnering with industry-giant Relax Gaming gives us the scale and distribution power to bring that ambition to life faster than ever.”

The comprehensive Onrise network will now be able to signpost to services that educate athletes and coaches on better gambling-related choices.

Onrise, the trusted mental health platform for athletes across the US, has agreed to a strategic partnership with leading harm prevention consultants EPIC Global Solutions to enhance gambling harm prevention services for athletes and coaches at professional and collegiate level.

Collaborating to deal with the growing issues connected to sports wagering and other forms of gambling, EPIC’s expertise – grounded in lived experience of gambling addiction – will support the 250+ peer support experts at Onrise by providing face-to-face or digital education options for sports organizations to promote awareness of safer relationships with gambling products.

The additional service will be made available to supplement the comprehensive Onrise network, which includes peer support from retired and certified athletes, licensed therapist, psychiatric care and sports performance, delivered through secure one-on-one sessions with flexible scheduling.

Kim Quigley, founder and CEO of Onrise, brokered the partnership after seeing evidence of EPIC’s delivery method, which currently includes education programs to NCAA student-athletes and staff as well as major league professionals.

“Student-athletes live in a time where gambling and sport intertwine in so many ways, with significant wagering interest in collegiate sport,” said Kim Quigley, MD, CEO of Onrise.

“This partnership with EPIC Global Solutions is about getting in early, before a bet becomes a burden they carry in silence. By pairing world-class gambling education with Onrise’s always-on, athlete-specific mental health care, we can spot risk sooner, intervene faster, and protect their health, future, and the team communities depending on them.”

Paul Buck, CEO of EPIC Global Solutions, added: “This strategic partnership has arisen because we both felt there was a real alignment of shared values between the two organizations. Gambling and sports wagering is growing fast in the US, not least in the sports and college sectors where we both operate.

“The two organizations are on a growth curve and will be stronger together for our clients and beneficiaries. We are both people centered and athlete focused, dedicated to doing good for mental health, wellbeing and performance.”

The partnership is announced as Problem Gambling Awareness Month begins in the US, running throughout March to raise wider understanding of how gambling issues can be identified and prevented.
