HeadsUp To Launch Proprietary iFundRaiser Online Platform
HeadsUp Entertainment International Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of its proprietary new iFundRaiser platform. This technology ecosystem has been developed to provide a solution for charities and organizations to quickly and inexpensively launch an end to end engagement system to raise funds and offer a next generation mechanism to its clients using digital gaming and media.
“The COVID-19 Pandemic and its affiliated severe negative economic impact has dramatically changed the world in many ways and charities have been one of the most impacted victims of the world’s new realities. Golf tournaments, galas, speaking events and traditional fundraisers are no longer a viable means for most organizations to gather their benefactors and supporters to raise money for their causes and we have the answer” commented HeadsUp CEO Doug Wilson. “Using the tools we have with gaming licenses, digital technology, media production and payment processing we can deliver a complete solution.”
The iFundRaiser platform will be tailored to each client to build an embedded online experience for maximum exposure. Whether the platform offers an online poker tournament, 50/50 draw, celebrity endorsement, online slot machine or casino game, daily fantasy sports contest, streaming virtual media event, auction or digital gaming experience, the HeadsUp product offers charity management a complete end to end solution to monetize their databases and supporters without the cost, time and experience of licensing and building gaming fundraising infrastructure.
“I have spent the last 30 years raising money for good causes, over $2 Billion to date, and this is the best product I have ever had the opportunity to introduce” stated HeadsUp Chief Business Development Officer Mark Hutchinson. “I have already been able to bring major global partners to HeadsUp to allow us to do the hard work of raising money in very difficult times globally.”
Already in negotiation, the iFundRaiser opportunity has been presented to organizations from military to wildlife groups and from local to global organizations that will be able to plug into the digital gaming experience and go to market immediately with everything from draws, lottery, bingo, 50/50, watch and win, donate and win and play to win with iGaming products.
Designed to drive millions of followers to the HeadsUp sites and applications, the platform takes the risk away from its Charity clients and through licensed gaming and new media engagement tools does all the work in a safe, secure and innovative environment.
HeadsUp has engaged and partnered with several world-renowned partners to aggregate the operations under one roof and monetize it through revenue share agreements. The estimates of traffic and dollar volume of funds raised from iFundRaiser are substantial.

Amusnet Marks Strategic Entry into North America with Ontario Licence
Amusnet is entering the North American market after securing a Gaming-Related Supplier–Manufacturer Registration from the AGCO in Ontario, Canada, marking a strategic milestone in the group’s global expansion.
Licensing grants Amusnet access to Ontario’s regulated iGaming market, which is one of the most established and fast-growing jurisdictions in North America, known for its robust regulatory framework and strong long-term growth potential.
It will allow the supplier to offer online gaming content to licensed operators in the province, officially establishing its presence in the region. Amusnet will initially roll out its iGaming portfolio, with the option to expand into Land-based solutions at a later stage.
Ontario’s regulatory framework emphasises strict compliance, ensuring that all suppliers adhere to high standards in technology, security and player protection. This makes Ontario a key benchmark market for companies entering North America. The new registration further confirms that Amusnet has successfully met these rigorous requirements for integrity and regulatory compliance, enabling it to distribute its content across the province.
“Securing the AGCO licence is an important milestone for Amusnet and reflects our long-term commitment to operating in fully regulated markets. Our entry into Ontario represents a key strategic step into North America, which is a high-priority region with strong long-term growth potential. We look forward to partnering with local operators and building a sustainable presence in the market,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.
