Wazdan is thrilled to announce their games are now available in the regulated Portuguese iGaming market. Thirty of Wazdan’s top games are now available to play in Portugal exclusively at Betclic.pt.

Through an extension of their existing partnership, Wazdan’s popular games – including 9 Lions, Larry the Leprechaun, Relic Hunters, Butterfly Lovers, and Magic Stars 5 – can now reach players across Portugal. Betclic is one of the leading iGaming brands in Portugal, owned and operated by the Betclic Group, a European online gaming company that provides players with the ability to express their passion for sport and horse-racing betting, poker, and casino games. Their brands include Betclic and Expekt.

Driven by a passion for entertainment and a customer-centric approach, Betclic Group shares core values with Wazdan in their constant goal to offer accessible, top-class products, that are simple, innovative, and put the customers’ experience at the centre of their offering. Wazdan is an innovative game developer with more than a decade worth of experience and upward of 115 HTML5 games available in their collection. Their commitment to exploring new technology, releasing titles regularly, and pushing the limits of their offering is what has given them a name as a tier-one slots game developer.

In recent years, Wazdan has grown rapidly in regulated markets. The game producer holds licences issued by the MGA, the UKGC, Romanian National Gambling Office ONJN, and Curacao eGaming. Wazdan is also certified to offer its products in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, and Portugal. Furthermore, their games use the RNG certified by the GLI, which ensures reliable, fair, and secure gameplay – and recently, they were awarded the ISO/IEC 27001 certification. The ISO/IEC 27001 is the internationally recognized standard for Risk Management and Information Security, awarded only to a choice group of companies that meet strict requirements imposed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).

In addition to market expansion, Wazdan also focuses on launching new, and exciting games for players to enjoy. Recent releases include Choco Reels, Sic Bok Dragons, and Reel Hero.

“We are pleased to extend our partnership with Wazdan, to offer their world-class games in Portugal. Wazdan and Betclic Group’s values are aligned, placing the customer at the heart of the business. Wazdan’s innovative slot games are popular with our players, and we look forward to offering their games to the Portuguese market” said Zoltan Rapp, Casino and Poker Executive at Betclic.

“Betclic is a leader in the Portuguese market, and we are proud to offer Wazdan games to their customers. Entering Portugal is an exciting prospect for Wazdan, and we look forward to developing an exciting offering for Betclic and our Portuguese players,” says Andrzej Hyla, Head of Sales at Wazdan.

Score Queens, a new female-first sports gaming community, has launched with Palace Picks, a free-to-play daily predictor game created for this summer’s World Cup.

Palace Picks runs throughout the tournament and asks players to answer five multiple-choice predictor questions plus one score prediction linked to that day’s matches. Players collect “Jewels” through participation, which the company says can be used to unlock raffle tickets for the headline prize.

The product has been developed in collaboration with Two-Up, a digital agency focused on sports, betting and gaming experiences. Score Queens said the partnership combines its brand positioning with Two-Up’s product, UX and digital delivery work.

The launch prize, sponsored by Vision4Sport, is a Monaco Grand Prix 2027 experience for one winner and a guest. The package includes Friday attendance with two grandstand passes, two superyacht party tickets in Port Hercule with food and drinks, and £1,500 towards flights and accommodation. Score Queens values the prize at over £5,000.

Kitty Miller, Founder of Score Queens, said: “Score Queens came from a very simple frustration. Women are already watching sport, talking about sport and being part of the big sporting moments, but so much of the betting and gaming world still feels like it wasn’t built with us in mind.

“Palace Picks is our first step in changing that. It is free to play, easy to join, and designed to bring more women into the sporting conversation through play, prediction, culture and community. We wanted to create something that feels fun, social and accessible, without dumbing anything down.”

Lottomart launches Flash Pots, adding ThrillTech’s operator-branded jackpots to its regulated markets.

ThrillTech has launched its ThrillPots side-bet jackpot product with Lottomart across the operator’s regulated UK and Gibraltar markets.

The rollout introduces Flash Pots, a ThrillPots-powered jackpot game integrated within Lottomart’s gaming platform. ThrillTech said the deployment expands its UK footprint and adds another regulated-market operator to its integration network.

ThrillPots is an operator-branded jackpot layer designed to sit alongside existing betting and gaming products. Players opt in by placing a small additional stake alongside eligible gameplay—such as slots, live casino games or sports bets—for a chance to enter pooled jackpot prizes.

Ben Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Lottomart is exactly the kind of operator ThrillPots is built for. Lottomart is renowned for offering the excitement of jackpots and we’re delighted that ThrillPots can elevate the experience for players.”

Chris Ruddock, Commercial Director at Lottomart commented: “Jackpot-centric gaming is core to the Lottomart experience, making this partnership a natural evolution of our offering. While our players are already engaged with our Jackpot pooled prizes, this collaboration allows us to bring a uniquely branded proposition to our players. We are thrilled to introduce Flash Pots, our new ThrillPots powered jackpot, to the site.”

ThrillTech said it is now live across 10 regulated jurisdictions and has recently announced partnerships with NordPlay, EstrelaBet in Brazil, the Tote Group and BVGroup’s UK brands such as Betano, talkSPORT Bet and Heart Bingo. The company also said it holds ISO 27001 certification.
