Magellan Robotech Will Present Its Global Offer For The First Time At ICE 2020
Magellan Robotech, the B2B brand of Stanleybet Group, a company that creates gaming solutions for gaming operators and virtual 3D games, announces its participation in ICE London, the main game fair in the world, scheduled from February 4th to 6th at ExCel Exhibition Centre in London.
After having successfully participated in the “Betting on Sports” in London in September and the “Sigma I-Gaming” in Malta last November and after having won the CEEG Awards in Budapest in the “Best Lottery Service Provider” category, the group has decided to take part for the first time in the London event, a prestigious stage for which it has many new features in store. The most awaited: the new Falcon, the first LIVE virtual football in the world.
The Magellan Robotech stand at ICE will occupy an area of 150 square meters while the exhibition area, including the lounge, will be 120 square meters. Led strips on the floor will define the different areas. The central body will be dedicated to the group’s software: in the west part an over-view of the virtual products and the Midas and Apache system; in the eastern part there will be virtual products dedicated exclusively to football: Trident, virtual championship, the new LIVE Falcon and Midas, retail touch screen betting system solution.
The VIRTUAL Trident, multi-nominated in numerous awards for the best product in the sector in 2019, will be exhibited both in the retail and online (desktop-mobile) versions. There will also be two stations dedicated to hardware, the MBKs, self-service terminals produced entirely by the company on which it will be possible to see how the machine works with the entire range of Magellan products.
Christian Maglia, CCO of Magellan Robotech, declares enthusiastic: «I am proud of what we have been able to do in a few months with the Magellan Robotech Team. The launch of K1, the first SSBT signed by MBK (Magellan Betting Kiosk) soon distributed in Denmark, Belgium, Romania and Italy, the addition in our product portfolio of the first third parties, the Virtual pre-recorded greyhound race and the real horse races, the strong interest in our retail solutions and in particular Midas Touch & Bet based on Apache and Galileo but open to integration with any betting platform, the imminent launch of Trident on two Top 5 operators in Peru and two of the Top 10 in Italy. The success of our products in the fairs we have attended in recent months (London, Johannesburg, Amsterdam, Las Vegas, Sofia, Buenos Aires, Malta) – continues Maglia – is proof of the fact that we are moving in the best way to achieve our goal which is to become a point of reference for operators in the sector, an obligatory stop for those who want to have unique and exclusive products. I am sure that our participation in ICE will be the icing on the cake of an exceptional year. But it does not end here – concludes the CCO of Magellan Robotech – because we have already announced our presence at ENADA Rimini, the most important exhibition in Italy dedicated to the gaming sector, and subsequently, we will be in Bogota, Lima, London, and Barcelona».

GR8 Tech Unveils Major Platform Enhancements Ahead of the World Cup
GR8 Tech is implementing a series of platform-wide enhancements designed to help operators maximize performance during the year’s biggest sporting event. With the World Cup expected to drive massive traffic, repeated betting surges, and intense competition for player acquisition, these updates focus on the areas that most directly impact operator results. The improvements aim to help partners convert more traffic, retain more players, and extract greater value throughout the entire tournament journey.
“World Cup traffic by itself does not guarantee better results. What matters is how well operators can turn that attention into acquisition, conversion, retention, and long-term player value,” said Denys Parkhomenko, Chief Product Officer at GR8 Tech. “That is where our focus is right now. We are enhancing the sportsbook experience, expanding engagement and loyalty tools, and advancing our crypto capabilities to help partners make the most of the biggest opportunity of the year.”
Key Areas of Focus
1. Sportsbook
The sportsbook is receiving a comprehensive upgrade, including redesigned navigation for easier event discovery, improved campaign visibility, and enhanced Bet Builder functionality. Additional updates include quick-access, player-specific markets and new Odds Boost features, balancing player appeal with margin control.
2. Engagement and Retention
GR8 Tech is expanding its loyalty and bonus systems with a VIP-focused program, automated bonus mechanics, more flexible bonus selection, and enriched casino and sports-related engagement tools. The update also includes updated tournament settings and the introduction of new game content to enhance player retention.
3. Crypto
The company is strengthening its crypto offering with early-stage player segmentation based on wallet transaction history, more flexible VIP and risk management before first deposit, and smoother wallet-based payments, including ramp payments and direct top-ups via WalletConnect and other wallets.
Across the platform, these updates are designed to help operators capitalize on the World Cup’s peak traffic, delivering measurable improvements at every stage of the player journey. Detailed release notes will follow, highlighting specific product enhancements and the developments shaping GR8 Tech’s World Cup-ready platform.
