Overwolf, the all-in-one platform that enables creators to build, distribute, and monetize in-game apps and mods, today announced the launch of the beta version of the new CurseForge app. The app will replace the mod tab in the Twitch client and help gamers and mod authors to manage mods and addons for supported games, beginning with World of Warcraft. Overwolf announced in June its plans to acquire CurseForge from Twitch to empower mod authors to not only create better experiences for gamers, but also make a living from their passion. The new dedicated app, built on the Overwolf framework, is launching ahead of WoW Shadowlands expansion to allow gamers to download the latest addons prior to the highly anticipated release.

Designed as a dedicated app for PC and Mac, the new CurseForge app will initially offer similar functionality to the “mods” section inside the Twitch client which includes discovering, downloading, and managing mods and addons. Since the announcement of the impending acquisition of CurseForge, Overwolf has collaborated with top in-game creators and gaming communities to identify how to improve CurseForge. The community’s feedback and most requested features were then used to lay out CurseForge’s development roadmap, available here. Improvements including sidebar navigation between games and better search functionality are already introduced in the launch version, with additional features coming during the next few months.

“We’re building our roadmap by listening to community suggestions on which features the players and mod authors would like to see in the new home for CurseForge. Essentially, we are giving the community the keys to shape the future of CurseForge,” said Uri Marchand, Overwolf CEO and Co-Founder. “Overwolf is focused on empowering mod authors with tools and services to build, share and monetize their amazing gaming creations with gamers. As part of our mission to put in-game creators first, we are fully committed to paying CurseForge mod authors 50% more by 2022, compared to what they’re making today.”

“CurseForge has always been the place where players could get the most up to date version of Mythic Dungeon Tools (MDT) and countless other great addons. Overwolf has reached out to the addon community to ask for feedback and ideas for potential new features to ensure that the development of the CurseForge platform benefits everyone including addon authors, but also the players. A lot of changes have been made based on feedback and suggestions to improve the overall experience of the platform, and I am really excited to see what’s in store for CurseForge in the coming months,” said Nnoggie, creator of Mythic Dungeon Tools, a leading World of Warcraft addons with over 10,000,000 downloads.

Support for Minecraft and additional games are also scheduled to arrive on November 17, 2020. Beginning November 30, gamers will no longer be able to use the Twitch client for mod management. All exploration, updating, and downloading of mods and addons will be done through the new CurseForge app and website.

WOWPartners Presents WonderPot Featuring Jackpot Up To 1 Million Euros

Published

on

WowPartners, a premier affiliate program, is thrilled to introduce the WonderPot Jackpot, a new progressive feature now live on the AllySpin brand. This unique addition allows players to win up to 1 million euros by playing their favorite slots, creating a powerful growth opportunity for affiliates.

WonderPot transforms standard slot sessions into a more engaging, high-energy experience that keeps players spinning longer and coming back for more. The feature is already delivering results, with the first WonderPot Jackpot successfully hit by one of the lucky AllySpin players!

Activating WonderPot is simple and intuitive. Players can find WonderPot games in the Jackpot section or open any of the 1,000+ participating titles and click ‘Opt in’ to begin. After selecting a contribution level of 10%, 20%, or 30% — which is added to each bet to feed the shared jackpot pool — every spin gives them a chance to win any of the four jackpot levels: Flash, Boost, Ultra, and WonderPot. The higher the contribution, the better the player’s chances of hitting a jackpot.

What makes WonderPot so special is how the jackpot is triggered. Winners are selected randomly via a certified system. For each round, a hidden target amount is set. With no fixed timeframes or visible countdown, the jackpot can drop at any moment and at any value up to 1 million euros. As players contribute to the shared pool, the prize is awarded to the player whose contribution brings the total to that secret target amount.

This creates a constant sense of momentum, where every spin matters and any moment can turn into a huge win. The best way to increase your chances of winning  is to stay active, contribute more, and keep playing — while the outcome ultimately comes down to luck.

For affiliate managers, WonderPot Jackpot is a strong performance driver. It naturally increases session duration, repeat activity, and overall engagement by combining visible jackpot growth with completely unpredictable drop timing. The multi-level structure adds additional motivation, while the simple entry mechanics make it easy to scale across a wide audience.

Now is the perfect time to leverage WonderPot Jackpot as part of your traffic strategy and drive players to AllySpin, where this feature is already proving its ability to convert, retain, and scale!

Golden Boomerang Awards Season 3 kicks off April 3 with high-value prizes and exclusive industry experiences

On April 3, 2026, Boomerang Partners, an Official Regional Partner of AC Milan, will kick off the third season of the Golden Boomerang Awards. This annual tournament for affiliate teams has become one of the industry’s largest competitions and consistently attracts hundreds of participants from around the world.

The status of the Golden Boomerang Awards

With the launch of the first season of the Golden Boomerang Awards in 2024, Boomerang Partners introduced a global platform for affiliate teams to showcase their expertise and gain recognition. The tournament mechanics motivate participants not just to compete for prizes, but to aim for leadership status and access unique experiences. This includes award ceremonies held at top-tier locations (Cyprus in 2024, and the iconic San Siro Stadium in Milan in 2025), as well as participation in private networking events with industry leaders. In 2025, the second season of GBA saw participation from over 400 teams (compared to 226 in the first season). AC Milan Legend Andrea Pirlo attended the ceremony, where he presented 11 awards to the top teams. For the execution of the GBA ‘25 awards ceremony, Boomerang Partners received the Best Live Event Marketing Campaign award at the European iGaming Awards 2026. This award serves as confirmation of the tournament’s recognition by the industry and its significance for the sports affiliate marketing segment.

GBA ’26 concept

The third season of the Golden Boomerang Awards builds on what has already been established over the past two years. The tournament is no longer just a campaign – it has become a recognizable format that affiliate partners return to and plan around. While short-term mechanics drive growth and engagement, long-term performance is what ultimately defines status.

The 2026 season will take place under the concept “Beyond the Moment.” The idea is simple: short-term results matter, but only consistent performance over time proves real expertise. This season is designed for affiliate teams that can maintain that level across the full tournament, with 11 award categories recognizing different areas of performance.

Reaching the final is about showing consistency over five months and competing at the highest level. The strongest teams will be recognized at the final ceremony in Lisbon, where results turn into reputation and long-term status in the industry.

Participation terms

Participants will need to drive traffic that generates FTDs for brands in Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio during the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 tournament. Teams will receive points for each FTD, with the number of points varying by tournament stage. There will be three stages in the third season of GBA:

  • First Half (April 3 – June 9)
  • Second Half (June 10 – July 19)
  • Overtime (July 20 – August 31)

Participants can join at any stage and take advantage of various mechanics to not only catch up with but surpass the leaders. So, if affiliate teams missed the start of the tournament, it doesn’t mean they don’t have a chance to secure a prize-winning spot.

Prizes and nominations

At each stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026, Boomerang Partners has prepared an interim prize. The First Half stage winner will get to attend the Wimbledon Championships (June 29 – July 12, 2026). The Second Half stage winner will be invited to attend the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Monza (September 6, 2026). The grand prize will be an exclusive dinner with an AC Milan Legend (late September / early October, 2026).

The finale, featuring the top teams, along with the official awards ceremony for the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 across 11 categories, will take place in late September in Lisbon. Further details will be announced soon, and the event is expected to surpass previous editions in scale and experience.

Anton Eshtokin, Chief Marketing Officer at Boomerang Partners, commented: “The Golden Boomerang Awards have evolved into a platform where real market leaders are defined. Each season raises the level of competition, and 2026 will be no exception. A packed global sports season, including the FIFA World Cup, will create additional opportunities for affiliates to scale and compete at a higher level. Alongside that, we’re elevating the overall experience — from high-value rewards to exclusive formats for top performers. The finale will be held in a top-tier international location and designed as a true industry highlight.”

Registration for the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 opens on April 3. Don’t miss your chance to compete for unique experiences and industry legacy. Secure your Welcome Boost, drive traffic, and earn a status that lasts beyond the moment. It’s time to win the title.
