Sodium’s Automated Identity Verification Takes Hello Soda From Strength to Strength
Hello Soda’s single API platform, Sodium, has experienced continued success since its launch earlier this year.
Global identity specialist, Hello Soda, launched the single API platform to simplify the delivery of its suite of Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-money Laundering (AML) and fraud prevention solutions.
As a result of the year’s economic downturn, onboarding costs and false negatives are more expensive than ever to businesses looking to grow their customer base. Implementing Sodium helps raise pass-rates and onboard customers more quickly, lowering acquisition costs.
Hello Soda also identified that many stakeholders were having difficulty integrating multiple identity verification solutions independently. Its developers responded to this challenge and the lack of cross-solution data analysis to help perform enhanced checks with the launch of Sodium.
Since its launch, Sodium has enabled businesses worldwide to improve their user journeys and see uplifts in pass rates, despite the difficult economic landscape; Hello Soda’s identity verification solutions are now being used across a wide range of sectors in 91% of the globe.
Due to the continued success and enhancements to Sodium, Hello Soda has been able to extend its reach and continues to work with a number of high-profile clients, including Renault/Nissan, Klarna, PaySafe, BoyleSports, Virgin Bet and deVere Group.
Dimitris Litsikakis, Global Head of FinTech at deVere Group, said: “The main driver behind integrating Sodium was the speed of client onboarding which is key for digital banking solutions like Vault.
At deVere we have experienced a growth in our conversion rates and increase in customer satisfaction rates as the account opening is now done automatically in less than two minutes rather than one of our agents having to check all documents manually before reaching a decision. Moreover, we seamlessly increased our security with automated PEP and DarkWeb checks that ensure we keep fraudsters away.“
Sodium is enabling global organisations to efficiently and accurately onboard their customers in a matter of seconds with less false positives and negatives. The game-changing platform enables organisations to not only add multiple ID&V products seamlessly but it cross-references data to perform additional checks leading to a truly enhanced customer due diligence (EDD). From document ID data cross-referenced with the dark web to an individual’s social footprint compared to CRA data, Sodium certainly delivers a multi-pronged approach to identity verification.

As part of the collaboration, bet-at-home seamlessly integrates the growing portfolio of ZEAL slots into its website. The first titles are already available to customers on bet-at-home.de.
Stronger together: Premium content meets established brand presence

In addition to best-selling ZEAL titles such as “The Bookmaker”, “Crime Scene”, “Vegas Blaze“, and other premium slots, the portfolio will continue to grow steadily in the coming months.
Shared perspectives
“Our mission is to make innovative, high-quality games accessible to the widest possible audience,” says Alex Green, Vice President Games at ZEAL. “With bet-at-home, we are gaining a partner that has held a strong position in the market for many years. This collaboration opens up new opportunities for expanding our reach and underscores the enormous potential of our growing games portfolio.”
From bet-at-home’s side: “We are delighted to have ZEAL Instant Games as a partner known for quality, creativity, and reliable performance,” says Claus Retschitzegger, CEO, bet-at-home. “The new ZEAL titles are a great addition to our offering and provide our customers with exciting and varied gaming experiences.

Glory & Honour Await the Strongest Gladiators in ELA Games’ Newest Game, Roman Fortune
Reading Time: 2 minutes
All reels lead to Rome in ELA Games’ newest atmospheric and bold slot.
ELA Games creates an immersive adventure in its latest title, Roman Fortune. Players battle for glory and honour in the heart of ancient Rome, where every spin carries the might of an empire.
Roman Fortune takes place in a roaring Colosseum under Caesar’s watchful eye, where fortunes wait for the victors. Designed with ELA Games’ signature visual richness and refined gameplay, this new title balances entertaining gaming experiences with operator-focused value, building on previous successes, such as Piñatas Festival.
Caesar’s Riches: Features that Favour the Brave
Roman Fortune offers several features that build excitement and depth for the player, ensuring action on every spin.
- Scatter Symbols: Collect Scatters to earn Free Spins — the more you collect, the greater the prize.
- Caesar Wilds: At any moment, a Caesar Wild may appear to spread wealth across the reels or even trigger the Hold & Win Bonus.
- Hold & Win Bonus: In this feature, players encounter Red, Blue, and Green Coins, each with their own imperial strengths. Red Coins multiply prizes, Blue Coins unlock Jackpots, and Green Coins collect all visible values for greater wins.
Gladiators can activate all of these features at once, where glory and honour will rain down on the victor.
An Experience Built for Impact
Just like the actual intense clashes that occurred in the Colosseum in ancient Rome, Roman Fortune is crafted for players who enjoy an atmospheric experience with excitement, tension, and memorable moments.
The game’s 95.99% RTP and high volatility ensure that even the base game has plenty of action. Roman Fortune embodies ELA Games’ game creation philosophy, where creativity and strategic development work together to deliver a product that delivers sustained engagement and strong performance for its partners
Marharyta Yerina, Managing Director of ELA Games, commented on the release, “Roman Fortune is a visually forward title that captivates players’ imaginations with thrilling battles in an ancient arena. Every detail exists to create a world players can step into and instantly feel connected to. The game’s bold theme, supported by strategic mechanics and layers of atmosphere, shows what our team does best: creating experiences players enjoy while providing value for our partners.”
Enter the Arena For Eternal Glory
Step into the Colosseum and fight for your place in history.

GR8 Tech Expands Virtual Sports Portfolio with New Basketball Offering, Deepens Localization Strategy
Reading Time: 2 minutes
GR8 Tech has expanded the virtual sports lineup within its ULTIM8 Sportsbook with a new range of virtual basketball, continuing a year of investment in the category that has already seen the addition of virtual horse racing and virtual cricket roulette—a unique format blending casino mechanics with the sport of cricket.
The expansion builds on GR8 Tech’s established strength in cricket, where the company developed one of the industry’s most comprehensive betting lines. Virtual cricket was designed to fill gaps between real-world tournaments, giving operators a way to maintain player engagement year-round—a model now being applied to basketball for markets where the sport dominates.
This content independence stems directly from GR8 Tech’s in-house trading capabilities.
“One of the things that GR8 Tech stands out for is the quality of the trading and the fact that we perform extremely well in very difficult environments, like Asia,” said Dinos Doxiadis, Head of Sportsbook Business at GR8 Tech. “Even our clients’ players in these challenging markets don’t behave like typical players in ‘easier’ regions such as Latin America, we still manage to achieve some of the highest margins there.”
That trading foundation enables GR8 Tech to build and localize content for specific markets rather than relying solely on third-party providers.
“We already have a very strong sportsbook, and now we’re scaling our processes and output capabilities to take it even further,” Doxiadis explains. “We’re improving the product and creating the conditions to localize very quickly and offer a truly localized experience across the world.”
GR8 Tech is also investing in infrastructure to give operators greater control over how they deploy this content.
“The goal is to put even more power into the hands of our operators so they can tailor the product exactly as they want. As we move forward with new data and content agreements, they’ll gain an even greater ability to adapt the sportsbook to their specific needs—on top of what they can already do today.”
Personalization is central to that roadmap. “We have delivered quite a few recommendation models, and right now we can serve custom content on a user level, and we will continue working in this direction,” said Doxiadis. “We have a very good infrastructure and baseline to invest in.”
