SkillOnNet’s brand now offers the supplier’s wide range of Bingo products

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has signed an agreement that sees its Bingo products available with PlayOJO.

Pragmatic Play’s Bingo vertical is one of the most engaging available in the market, with highly competitive daily jackpots and prizes, as well as plenty of variants to enjoy. Recently, the supplier released an exclusive game, Bingo Blast, which introduced an innovative take on an all-time classic. The entire range of products is now available with PlayOJO.

Bingo Blast is a mobile-first game, designed to allow users to play on the go. The product is designed entirely in-house and it is 3-4 times faster than the average 90-ball Bingo variant. Players are swiftly taken to the most engaging part of the game, making Bingo Blast an ideal product for the current market expectations and modern requirements.

Melissa Summerfield, CCO at Pragmatic Play, said: “I am thoroughly looking forward to seeing our products live with PlayOJO and other SkillOnNet casino brands worldwide. We already went live with Slots and Live Casino with them, and everything went as smoothly and successfully as expected. PlayOJO will now be one of the first brands on the market to offer our entire range of products.”

“Pragmatic Play’s team has worked vigorously to ensure we deliver a stand-out product which I am confident will enable PlayOJO to drive their bingo business forward.”

Michael Golembo at SkillOnNet said: “We are pleased to further enhance our agreement with Pragmatic Play and add their revolutionary Bingo products to our offering.

“We foster a close partnership with Pragmatic, previously taking both its Slot titles and Live Casino products and Bingo is a such a big new strategic move for us, it’s good to have Pragmatic Play Bingo as software partners to ensure it works well. The company’s entire portfolio is available through a single API integration.”

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.”
