Toals have accelerated their print-to-digital transition with the launch of new interactive Racing Post Digital Betting Shop Display (BSD) screens across their retail estate in Northern Ireland. Toals, who boast the largest betting shop in the UK and Ireland, continue their digital-first approach to betting by installing the new state-of-the-art interactive horseracing screens.

The Racing Post BSD has been a mainstay for bookmakers since its launch more than 20 years ago and the new screens showcase the same great content in an interactive format. With the new touchscreens, Toals customers are able to compare the detailed form for horses side by side.

For more casual racing customers, the new interactive touchscreens contain key Racing Post content, including Verdicts and the Predictor so they can make informed betting decisions.

The new screens were rolled out to three shops in Ballymena, Portadown and the flagship store in Belfast.

At the launch of the digital display, Toals CEO Gary Toal spoke about the advancement of the tech approach they have always taken in store.

He said “At Toals we pride ourselves on our tech-led approach and we’re delighted to join Racing Post on their print-to-digital transition. We’ve always considered ourselves leaders in tech-led betting shops and we’re excited to roll out these new Racing Post screens for horseracing punters.’’

Toal went on to discuss how vital it was that Racing Post was included in the tech transition.

“The Racing Post Betting Shop Display has been on every betting shop wall across the UK and Ireland for well over 20 years. It’s a key cog in the horseracing betting decision. It is vital for our customers to see Racing Post content available in our shops as we know just how valuable it is. Their content is just as good on the new screens as it was in the paper and I’m looking forward to introducing customers to it over the coming weeks.”

Alan Pepperell, Retail Director of Racing Post, expressed his excitement at the continued roll-out of the Racing Post Digital Betting Shop Display.

“The past few years have seen a shift in focus for the overall retail landscape. If you look at the high street, most stores are now becoming tech-driven and we know bookmakers are no different. Our newspaper and Betting Shop Display have been staples for bookmakers over the past 20 years and we are delighted now to be at the forefront of this digital transition with our new interactive screens. As always, Gary and his team at Toals are leading the tech race with the displays they already have in store. We’re delighted to be rolling out our number one product in his new stores.”

On the advancing tech behind the Racing Post display, he added: “The tech in the displays is second to none and we now offer customers more content than ever before. We used lockdown to update our tech using new Raspberry Pi technology which allows customers to set it and forget it to make our screens quicker and more cost-effective for our partners. Being able to give full form, and verdicts on all UK and Irish racing as well as international racing, greyhound and virtuals in-store, at the touch of a button means punters are armed with the best information to help make their selection.”

Tebex connects to the Paysafe API, extending beyond PaysafeCard to card processing and alternative payment methods including Openbucks in the US.

Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE) has expanded its partnership with video game monetization platform Tebex, adding card payments and additional alternative payment methods (APMs) through a single integration to the Paysafe API. The update was announced July 7, 2026 in London.

Tebex has integrated the Paysafe Gateway to support credit and debit card processing alongside APMs. Tebex said its checkout has offered Paysafe’s prepaid eCash product PaysafeCard since 2016, and the new API integration connects Tebex to a broader set of Paysafe payment products.

The integration also links Tebex to Paysafe’s branded APMs. Tebex Checkout is already live with Openbucks, which enables US gamers to pay online with cash using third-party gift cards purchased in-store at “67K+ locations,” or via Openbucks’ Obucks digital card sold through authorized online resellers.

Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, said: “We’re delighted to broaden our partnership with Tebex. In a highly competitive market, video game creatives need to satisfy gamers’ increasingly diverse transactional expectations. By connecting the Tebex Checkout to an exhaustive range of payment options, including recognizable brands like our Openbucks solution, the Paysafe Gateway will give Tebex and its customers an edge when it comes to streamlining, simplifying and ultimately optimizing the monetization of gaming.”

Liam Wiltshire, Vice President and GM of Tebex, commented: “At Tebex, we know payments are more than a transaction. They’re a critical part of how studios build relationships with their players and grow their games. Acting as an extension of the studio, our role is to remove the complexity of global payments, compliance, and support so teams can focus on creating amazing experiences. Expanding our partnership with Paysafe allows Tebex to offer greater choice and flexibility at checkout, helping our partners reach more players, reduce friction, and unlock new opportunities for growth.”

Expanded partnership sees video gaming monetization platform Tebex integrate to Paysafe API for card payments and multiple alternative payment methods

Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE), a global payments platform, today announced its expanded partnership with Tebex, the game monetization extension and growth platform for game servers and game studios. Tebex, which acts as an extension of a gaming studio, has integrated the Paysafe Gateway into its platform to enable video game merchants to provide their customers with true optionality when they transact – from card payments to alternative payment methods (APMs).

The Tebex Checkout has featured Paysafe’s flagship prepaid eCash solution PaysafeCard since 2016, and now, through a single, streamlined integration with the Paysafe API, it is connected to the company’s complete range of payment solutions. This includes seamless credit card and debit card payments, with all transactions processed in seconds by Paysafe.

The Gateway also connects Tebex to Paysafe’s suite of branded APMs, with the Tebex Checkout already live with the company’s Openbucks solution. Boasting strong brand recognition in the American video gaming community, this APM allows US gamers to pay online with cash using third-party gift cards, which can be bought in-store at 67K+ locations, or Openbucks’ own Obucks digital card, available for purchase online via authorized resellers.

With Openbucks and future Paysafe-powered solutions, Tebex continues to expand its network of local and alternative payment methods, enabling studios to reach players in more markets with payment options that reflect regional preferences and improve conversion rates with a seamless player experience.

Zak Cutler, President of Global Gaming at Paysafe, said: “We’re delighted to broaden our partnership with Tebex. In a highly competitive market, video game creatives need to satisfy gamers’ increasingly diverse transactional expectations.

F*Bastards says it now distributes content via 400+ operators worldwide

F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.

In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.

The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.

F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.

“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
