Bojoko report asks whether changes to VIP schemes go far enough
Operators, lawyers and the Betting and Gaming Council share their thoughts on the latest regulatory changes in the UK
Bojoko has created a special report looking at the industry’s reaction to the Gambling Commission’s decision to tighten requirements for high value customers and VIP schemes.
The online casino comparison site has spoken to operators, lawyers and the Betting and Gaming Council to determine whether the new requirements go far enough.
While the Bojoko team believes an outright ban is the only way to properly protect players, the majority of operators do not believe abolishing VIP schemes is best way forwards.
Here are some highlights from the report:
“Through robust Know Your Customer checks for every single existing VIP and new VIPs, as well as increased transparency and accountability, we believe that our operators have the necessary structures in place to ensure high value customers are enjoying gambling safely.”
- Brigid Simmonds, Betting and Gaming Council
“From the industry’s perspective, I think that there is a hope that if they act now this will head off a proportion of the concerns (and avoid a total ban), and from the Gambling Commission’s perspective, it is seen as being very active in a “problem area”.”
- Alasdair Lamb, Senior Associate at CMS
“In the case of VIP schemes, banning them pushes the larger operators out of the market and more unregulated casinos benefit while the government loses out on POC tax. I certainly think tweaks can be made to regulation but in most cases, including this one, abolition is not the answer.”
- James Booth, MrQ
The report also provides insight and guidance for what operators can do to ensure they are ready for the changes when they come into force on 31 October 2020.

3 Oaks Gaming adds Super Jackpot slot to 4 Pots series
4 Clover Pots: Hold and Win introduces a fourth Pot and a Super Jackpot worth up to 10,000x the bet.
3 Oaks Gaming has launched 4 Clover Pots: Hold and Win, expanding its 4 Pots slot portfolio with a new Irish-themed title that adds a fourth Pot and a Super Jackpot mechanic.
The 5×3, 25-line game builds on the supplier’s 3 Clover Pots release. The new fourth Pot introduces the chance to trigger a Super Jackpot worth up to 10,000x the bet, according to the company.
The title’s Super Bonus Game is triggered by collecting Super Bonus Symbols. When activated, the grid expands from 5×3 to 5×5 and can introduce up to three bonus features at once. The Super Jackpot is awarded if all 25 cells are filled during the feature.
The slot also includes a Hold & Win Bonus Game, triggered via three Pots that fill with Bonus Symbols. In the bonus, Gold Clover Bonus Symbols can reveal Mini, Minor and Major Jackpots, while filling the entire grid awards the Grand Jackpot. 3 Oaks Gaming said the Pots add modifiers including Multi (up to x5 multipliers), Collect (gathers symbol values) and Mystery (awards higher-value Bonus Symbols or Mini to Major Jackpots), with a Rainbow Coin able to activate an additional feature or upgrade an existing one.
Federico Miele, Acting Head of Account Management at 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “The 4 Pots series has consistently delivered strong results for our operator partners, and 4 Clover Pots: Hold and Win represents the next evolution of the concept.
“By combining the proven appeal of Hold & Win gameplay with the addition of the Super Pot, expanded bonus functionality and a standout Irish theme, we’ve created a title that offers operators a compelling mix of familiarity, innovation and long-term engagement potential.”

Swintt launches football slot Champions Of The Spin with three bonus features
The Premium title is a 5-reel, 50-payline game with respins, a penalty-kick multiplier bonus, and local jackpots up to 3,000x.
Swintt has released Champions Of The Spin, a football-themed Premium slot designed around a “summer soccer tournament” backdrop, according to the supplier.
The game runs on five reels with 50 paylines and includes a custom kit symbol alongside boots, gloves and trophies. Swintt says the title offers maximum wins of up to 3000x.
Champions Of The Spin includes three bonus mechanics. The Football Feature triggers when six or more football symbols land, awarding three respins that reset when a new symbol appears. Silver footballs collect the values of regular footballs, while gold footballs collect both silver and regular values. Filling all 15 reel positions triggers what Swintt calls the MEGA jackpot for 1000x the selected stake.
A Mystery Bonus triggers with golden whistles on reels 1, 3 and 5, prompting players to choose a penalty placement to reveal a multiplier of up to 100x. Swintt says this can be randomly upgraded to a Pot Pick feature, where three matching jackpot names award the corresponding prize. In the base game, trophy wilds can also expand to cover a full reel.
Anthony Dalla-Giacoma, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “Nothing quite beats the excitement of a summer soccer tournament, but a football-themed slot with three thrilling features runs it pretty close! In Champions Of The Spin, players can win free respins, big-money multipliers and one of four huge local jackpots, making it a timely addition to operators’ line-ups.”
