Johanna Nymberg to bring Adverty’s seamless in-game offering to more game developers and publishers worldwide

Leading in-game advertising platform, Adverty, has announced the hire of Johanna Nymberg as Director of Business Development, to spearhead further growth for the innovative company. This follows on the back of the launch of new offices across Europe and APAC and a raft of senior hires earlier this year.

Adverty’s mission is to deliver seamless advertising which connects brands and audiences through its revolutionary technology built for gaming.

Nymberg will be responsible for driving publisher revenue globally for Adverty. With extensive experience in the digital media sector, she was most recently Senior Publisher Growth Manager at AdColony, one of the largest mobile advertising platforms in the world, working from both London and Singapore.

She will work alongside Niklas Wallgren and Christian Atack to liaise with publishers and game developers globally, widening access and awareness of Adverty’s unique In-Play enabled in-game advertising SDK.

“Adverty’s formats are a great advantage to brands and publishers. As it is still a new ad monetisation format, this makes the role even more exciting. Adverty is genuinely setting a new standard for generating revenue and I will be driving new game integrations and expanding the use of the platform via high-value deals and strategic, long-term partnerships, further establishing Adverty as the leading in-game advertising company,” says Johanna.

“We are delighted to welcome yet another industry heavyweight to the team,” adds Niklas Bakos, CEO and founder of Adverty. “Johanna is a well-respected leader with deep experience in the gaming space and excellent contacts within the publishing industry, and always at the forefront of industry developments.”

The expansion of the business follows ever-increasing numbers of advertisers looking for in-game advertising at scale, and for publishers who want to monetise their gaming inventory with unobtrusive brand advertising.

“In-game brand advertising is currently experiencing significant growth worldwide and Adverty’s formats are super exciting compared to traditional banners and display”, adds Johanna. “Game developers are keen to seek out new ways to work with brands and drive revenue, without reverting to intrusive formats that are detrimental to the gaming experience. Adverty’s offering represents the future of in-game monetisation, in one of the most unchartered frontiers of the media world.”

Dutch Regulator Urges Online Gambling Providers to Stop Using “Share Your Bet” Feature

Published

dutch-regulator-urges-online-gambling-providers-to-stop-using-“share-your-bet”-feature

 

The Dutch Gambling Regulator (KSA) has urged the online gambling providers to discontinue the “Share your bet” feature. This feature allows players to share their placed bets via social media or messaging apps such as WhatsApp, Facebook and email. The KSA investigated the functionality of this feature after receiving several signals and questions from the market.

“Share your bet” function

The “Share your bet” feature allows players to easily share their bets with others. It works like this: a player places a bet and sends it via a link to, for example, friends or family. The recipient can then immediately see the bet and, if they have an account, participate as well. This makes gambling easily shared, often via social networks.

Protection of vulnerable groups

The KSA points out that the “Share your bet” feature is a form of advertising and recruitment. It’s a way for providers to promote gambling, but indirectly through players themselves. According to the Decree on Recruitment, Advertising and Addiction Prevention in Gambling, providers must ensure that advertising does not reach vulnerable groups, such as minors, young adults and people with gambling problems.

Because players with the “Share your bet” feature decide who to send their bet to, providers have no control over who receives the shared messages. This means that gambling providers cannot guarantee that vulnerable groups will not unintentionally encounter gambling advertising. Therefore, offering features like “Share your bet” is not permitted.

In addition, the ease of sharing bets helps normalize gambling. This lowers the barrier to entry, especially among younger demographics.

Discontinue “Share your bet” functionality

The KSA is therefore calling on all online gambling providers using the “Share your bet” feature to immediately stop doing so. The KSA will continue to monitor any new developments in this area and will take enforcement action where necessary to ensure the protection of vulnerable groups.
