SuperSeven, the new online casino from Bet Seven Online, is set to launch in the first half of 2021 on Gaming Innovation Group’s (GiG) platform and will use BlueRibbon’s gamification solution as a significant component of its offering.

SuperSeven is taking a different approach to the online player experience. The operator will provide an exciting collection of RNG and Live Casino content alongside innovative gamification features designed to offer meaningful player rewards. To execute on their business model, SuperSeven will use BlueRibbon’s player engagement platform, which enables operators to create customized jackpots that bring new levels of excitement to game content.

BlueRibbon’s content-agnostic solution perfectly aligns with SuperSeven’s goal of bringing an innovative gaming experience to players. The operator can create a wide range of jackpot games tailored to the preferences of any player segment. By offering smaller, more frequent jackpots that are fully operator controlled, SuperSeven can foster an exciting environment that attracts new players while building deeper loyalty with existing players.

The partnership between BlueRibbon and GiG allows all of GiG’s operators to use the jackpot solution, but SuperSeven will be the first to launch the jackpots, furthering the brand’s objective of differentiating itself and providing a unique gaming experience.

BlueRibbon CMO Dan Fischer explained, “We’re looking forward to SuperSeven’s launch this year. We believe that in a crowded marketplace, each operator needs to find that special something that will resonate with players, bringing them back for more. Our solution was created for exactly this purpose, and we’re thrilled to be one of the key mechanisms that will facilitate SuperSeven’s highly gamified experience.”

Tim Parker, COO of SuperSeven added “I have been tracking Blue Ribbon for a couple of years now and looking for an ideal project with which to best leverage its considerable power. This solution will enable SuperSeven to offer an industry first in terms of site wide, daily jackpots where every player will be involved. Players are tired of traditional bonussing and free spins, by leveraging a solution like this we can create excitement, value for our players thus ensuring increased retention and share of wallet.”

Christopher de Lima, Chief Executive Officer of Bet Seven Online limited and SuperSeven, explains, our core focus from the inception has been to create a new experience to an educated audience with a view to increase average retention numbers from a start up. The partnership with GIG, our platform provider, and BlueRibbon will allow our first brand, SuperSeven to offer an exciting product not yet seen in the market.

Momentum cloud platform to replace legacy tech across retail and digital channels, with an option to extend up to three more years.

Scientific Games has secured a new seven-year contract to modernize the Minnesota Lottery’s technology stack, replacing the lottery’s legacy system across its retail and digital networks. The agreement includes an option to renew for up to three additional years.

Under the deal, Scientific Games will deploy its cloud-based Momentum ecosystem, which the company says is designed to support omnichannel sales and performance. The rollout will include a systems conversion and new technology across the Minnesota Lottery’s retailer network.

“We took an innovative approach to selecting technology that would pave the way to the future and responsibly grow our contributions to programs that positively impact the lives of Minnesotans,” said Adam Prock, Executive Director, Minnesota Lottery. “We were seeking modern technology and a solution focused on service and partnership. Scientific Games was aligned with our vision for growth.”

Scientific Games said Momentum is anchored by its central gaming system, SciTrak Scratch games distribution system, gem | Intelligence retailer licensing and management portal, and INFUSE business intelligence platform. The Minnesota rollout also includes SCiQ digital menu boards, WAVE clerk-operated terminals and PlayCentral self-service machines, plus a second-chance digital promotions solution supported by the company’s CRM program.

Scientific Games said its systems technology has been selected by four North American lotteries in the past 18 months: Minnesota Lottery, Ohio Lottery, New Mexico Lottery and Loto-Québec. The Minnesota Lottery said it has generated more than $4 billion for state programs since 1990, including the environment, education, public safety and health and human services, and problem gambling.

Exclusive global deal covers APT Taipei, Incheon, Jeju and the APT Championship in Taipei through the rest of 2026.

PokerOrg has been appointed the Official Media Partner of the Asian Poker Tour (APT) under an exclusive global partnership announced April 20, 2026 in Douglas, Isle of Man.

The agreement makes PokerOrg APT’s global storytelling and audience development partner for the tour’s remaining 2026 stops: APT Taipei (April/May), APT Incheon (August), APT Jeju (September/October), and the APT Championship (November), which will again be held in Taipei.

APT said it has been the fastest growing poker tour in the world since the “APT New Era” began in 2023. The company also pointed to the debut APT Championship, which it said generated more than $34 million in prize money.

“APT has been one of the most important stories in poker for several years, but much of the global audience hasn’t experienced it yet,” said Eric Hollreiser, CEO of PokerOrg parent company Triple Barrel Media. “This partnership changes that, not by reporting on APT from the outside, but by bringing players inside it and making it matter to a global audience.”

“PokerOrg is the gold standard in poker media, so bringing them on as our Official Media Partner is a natural fit. Their values around integrity and how they approach the game are fully aligned with APT.” said Fred Leung, CEO of the Asian Poker Tour.

PokerOrg said its coverage will include creator-led content, social-first formats and integrated event reporting across its platforms. The company also plans to launch a dedicated APT hub on Poker.org and extend its Pick 3 fan format to the APT Championship, with winners receiving a package to an APT event in 2027.
