Yggdrasil agrees retail supply deal with Veikkaus
Innovative iGaming solutions supplier Yggdrasil has signed a Game IP Licensing Agreement with the Finnish incumbent gaming operator Veikkaus for the retail segment.
Veikkaus is Finland’s state-owned operator with a GGR of EUR 1,691 million in 2019.
In collaboration with Veikkaus, Yggdrasil will repurpose and provide slot games for the Veikkaus retail estate in Finland over Veikkaus’ proprietary Video Lottery Terminals (VLT’s). Yggdrasil already supplies Veikkaus with slot content in the online channel.
Yggdrasil’s first retail games are expected to go live in Finland with Veikkaus across their retail network in the middle of next year in full compliance with Finnish regulatory requirements. An early proof of concept has already been achieved.
Bjorn Krantz, Chief of Global Market Operations, Yggdrasil, said: “We are delighted to extend provision of gaming content to Veikkaus in their retail environment. Expansion of partnership into Retail fits perfectly into our own and Veikkaus omnichannel strategy, were we effectively can scale business operations, drive improved total player value, and content familiarization.
“It has been a thorough selection process by Veikkaus, and I am very proud of the Teams involved driving the successful process. We really look forward to a long and mutually beneficial retail relationship with Veikkaus.”
Jan Hagelberg, VP Casino Games, Veikkaus, said: “While known for being an operator that delivers top-notch player protection ecosystem and a full portfolio of casino, betting and lottery games in all channels, Veikkaus is also a technology company with fully integrated proprietary gaming platform and product suite with integrated omnichannel solution.
“So far, the retail VLT distribution has been dedicated to our in-house content only, but we are now ready to host a technical pipeline that enables trusted online partners and 3rd party studios to supply their games to our retail customers.
“We’ve chosen Yggdrasil to be our first partner to pilot this because of their innovative content, proven technical capability and capacity to deliver swift time-to-market with Veikkaus team. We are excited to expand our strong partnership from online to cover also retail.”

David Murray Head of Risk and Trading at AK Bets
AK Bets trading chief says VAR forces more in-play market suspensions
David Murray tells OLBG video reviews have cut live betting uptime and increased split-second risk decisions for traders.
VAR is reshaping how football is traded in-play, according to David Murray, Head of Risk & Trading at AK Bets, who says video reviews have increased uncertainty and reduced the time live betting markets can stay open.
Speaking to OLBG, Murray said traders now have to suspend markets more often because potential penalties, red cards and offsides can quickly swing outcomes. “Years ago you would only suspend betting for a handful of major incidents,” he said. “Now there are so many situations where something might happen that you’re constantly making judgement calls.”
Murray added that VAR has changed the experience of watching matches for both fans and trading teams. “It’s completely ruined the enjoyment of watching football,” he said. “We’re exactly the same as everybody else. Whether you’ve had a bet yourself or you’re trading the game, you’re afraid to celebrate a goal because you’re immediately wondering whether there’s going to be a VAR check.”
He said the operational impact is stark compared with a decade ago. “If you compare now with 10 years ago, it’s night and day,” Murray said. “The amount of time even the biggest football matches are actually available to bet on has changed because there are simply far more incidents that require markets to be suspended.”
Murray also pointed to scheduled stoppages at this summer’s World Cup, saying hydration breaks can create additional betting moments rather than interrupting activity. “It almost becomes like a mini half-time,” he said. “Customers have a few minutes to think about what they’ve watched, look at the updated prices and decide whether they want to get involved.”

N1 Sport Promo: Earn More with Sports Traffic
With less than two weeks remaining until N1 Sport Promo by N1 Partners comes to an end, the biggest sporting events of July are still ahead: the decisive matches of the FIFA World Cup 2026, the Wimbledon Final, the Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix, and the closing stages of the Tour de France.
During this period, every additional FTD not only increases your overall payout but also boosts your CPA rate.
- SEO & PPC — +€50 CPA for every 10 FTDs, with no cap on CPA increases.
- Facebook, In-App, UAC, ASO, Email & SMS — +€10 CPA for every 30 FTDs, up to +€100 above your base CPA.
The full promotion terms are available via the link below.
The N1 Partners affiliate team has shared practical recommendations to help affiliates make the most of the final stage of the promotion.
Strengthen Campaigns That Already Deliver Results
The final weeks of N1 Sport Promo are the best time to increase the volume of successful campaigns and take full advantage of the promotion’s progressive CPA mechanics.
Focus on traffic sources and creatives that are already delivering consistent results. Their growth can be supported by expanding into additional GEOs, regularly refreshing creatives, keeping offers up to date, and reacting quickly to major sporting events.
Even a moderate increase in high-quality traffic can significantly improve your final payout: the more FTDs you generate before the promotion ends, the higher your CPA rate becomes.
Speed Is a Competitive Advantage
The strongest results typically come from campaigns launched ahead of key matches and kept relevant throughout the tournament. Preparing campaigns before kickoff and responding quickly to shifts in audience interest helps affiliates capitalize on peaks in sports traffic and generate more high-quality FTDs.
Mobile users deserve particular attention during this period, as a significant share of the audience engages with sports content while matches are taking place.
Player Activity Peaks in the Final Hours Before Kickoff
During major sporting events, many users register just a few hours before a match begins. That’s why timely creative updates and a strong focus on the tournament’s most anticipated fixtures are essential for maintaining campaign performance.
Key Sporting Events Before the Promo Ends
The sports calendar remains packed over the coming weeks:
- July 9 — France vs Morocco (FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-final);
- July 10 — Spain vs Belgium (FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-final);
- July 11 — Norway vs England (FIFA World Cup 2026 Quarter-final);
- July 14–15 — FIFA World Cup 2026 Semi-finals;
- July 19 — FIFA World Cup 2026 Final;
- July 12 — Wimbledon Final;
- July 19 — Formula 1 Belgian Grand Prix;
- Through July 26 — Closing stages of the Tour de France.
Each of these events traditionally drives spikes in search demand, social media engagement, and player interest. As a rule, the best-performing campaigns are those that are already delivering results. The final weeks of the promotion are the ideal time to strengthen them through continuous, data-driven optimization.
Looking for even more scaling opportunities? The N1 Partners team has also prepared a comprehensive July guide featuring the month’s biggest sporting events and practical recommendations to help affiliates plan campaigns more effectively and drive additional Tier-1 traffic.
