Footy Accumulators Betting Hub a hit with operators as app delivers record player numbers
Footy Accumulators’ Betting Hub app is primed for further tier-one operator API integrations after setting new performance records in 2021.
The user-friendly betting companion app from Footy Accumulators, the betting community brand which is part of Checkd Group, saw a record number of bets placed in January 2021, with a 20% increase on the previous monthly best.
Betting Hub is now set to hit a total of 200,000 unique users across iOS and Android after successful API integrations with some of the sports betting industry’s biggest names including bet365, Paddy Power and Betfair, with more tier-one deals set up to roll out in the near future.
The integrations mean that customers can login, check their balance and place bets without leaving the app, leading to a much slicker user experience.
Within Betting Hub, the Smart Acca tool has proven extremely popular, recently passing an overall total of one million selections added to betslips and establishing itself as a key USP for both attracting and retaining app users.
Smart Acca allows for fixtures to be organised based on form and statistical analysis. The user can choose their preferred betting markets and the tool will present those games which are statistically most likely to be a favourable choice based on pre-processed historical OPTA data. The accumulator builder allows users to easily build their bets from these selections and place them with the operator of their choice.
Checkd Group is a fast-growing iGaming affiliate based in Manchester, UK. As well as Footy Accumulators its Checkd Media division runs popular affiliate brands Oddschanger and The Winners Enclosure, while the Checkd Development division is responsible for the group’s technology platform and product suite.
Adam Patton, MD at Checkd Development, said: “Month-on-month, Betting Hub is delivering increased gains across a number of commercial and customer engagement metrics for our API partners.
“With new milestones consistently being achieved by Betting Hub, a lot of which being driven by the Smart Acca tool, we are focused on building on the success through ongoing product improvements. We also look forward to rolling out new API integrations with additional tier-one operators in the coming months.”

Spinmatic launches Elemental Fusion Deluxe with instant Plinko bonus triggers
Spinmatic has launched Elemental Fusion Deluxe, a new slot built around instant access to its Plinko mechanic from the base game, the supplier said. The title was announced on 9 June 2026 from Malta.
Elemental Fusion Deluxe runs on a 5×3 layout with 25 fixed paylines. Spinmatic lists the game as medium-high volatility with a 96.04% RTP and 39.49% hit frequency.
The game’s feature set includes Gold Wilds, which can appear on any reel and substitute for standard symbols (excluding the Special Plinko Symbol and the Special Element Elixir Symbols). Spinmatic also says base gameplay uses “Instant Elixir Multipliers” linked to Fire, Earth, Water, Air, and Galaxy symbols.
Instead of an accumulator-style collection mechanic, the Plinko Feature Trigger activates when three dedicated trigger symbols land on reels 1, 3, and 5, launching a random Plinko bonus. Spinmatic says the Plinko bonus is split into four elemental modes after a selection wheel sets a starting pool of 10 to 100 balls: Water Plinko (low volatility, Mini Jackpot), Air Plinko (medium volatility, Midi Jackpot), Earth Plinko (high volatility, Maxi Jackpot), and Fire Plinko (very high volatility, Grand Jackpot), played on a 16-row pyramid.
The company framed the release around reducing time-to-feature: “In a market where a split-second delay can lose a player, the quality of your content delivery determines your bottom line.”

Inspired launches Wolf It Up! Roulette 54 and Big Wheel for Hybrid Dealer
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: INSE) has launched two new iGaming titles: Wolf It Up! Roulette 54
and Wolf It Up! Big Wheel
. The games were announced June 9, 2026 and are powered by the company’s Hybrid Dealer® format and its Cash Bank
mechanic.
Wolf It Up! Roulette 54 is positioned as a roulette-style product delivered in a Hybrid Dealer presentation with pre-recorded hosts and a CGI studio environment. Inspired said the game’s layout uses numbers 1 to 50 plus four special symbol segments, built to support Cash Bank bonus rounds.
Wolf It Up! Big Wheel is built around an automated 54-segment wheel and uses a roulette-inspired betting interface. Inspired described the game as a faster-paced, gameshow-style alternative within the same Wolf It Up!
theme, with Cash Bank features and “character-driven upgrades.”
Chris Campbell, Product Director at Inspired Entertainment, said: “These two titles are designed to complement each other. Roulette 54 version is for players who want an immersive, live-style experience, and Big Wheel is for those after something faster and more streamlined.

Groove confirms SBC Summit Americas 2026 attendance in Fort Lauderdale
Groove will attend SBC Summit Americas 2026, taking place June 9–11 at the Broward County Convention Centre in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. The company said its leadership team will be on site, including Co-Founder and CEO Yahale Meltzer and Business Development Director Giusy Campo, to meet operators, regulators, and affiliates.
The appearance follows Groove’s participation at SiGMA Asia in Manila, where the company said it joined a panel on regulatory resilience in the “Jurisdiction Jungle”. In Fort Lauderdale, Groove plans to continue discussions focused on navigating fragmented regulatory environments across North and Latin America.
Giusy Campo, Business Development Director at Groove, said: “When we move into a new region, we don’t arrive empty-handed. We come with a platform built on structural resilience: predictive auto-scaling, atomic transactions, and a real-time compliance mesh that adapts to jurisdictional demands, not the other way around. Operators in the Americas face many of the same pressures as their counterparts in Asia: banking scrutiny, shifting regulations, and the need for flawless execution. Our ‘Unseen Architecture’ was built for exactly this moment.” She added: “They need a partner whose platform won’t introduce compliance or operational risk into their business. That’s what we deliver. From Manila to Miami, the questions are the same. And we have the answers.”
Groove said it enters the event after what it described as a “transformative 2025,” including securing a license to operate in Brazil and establishing regulated activity in Argentina, alongside expansion across Europe, Africa, and Asia. The company also said it offers “over 15,000 games from more than 150 providers unified through a single API.”
Meltzer said: “We don’t do ‘one-off’ events. We build continuous relationships across the markets that matter. Asia was about demonstrating structural resilience in the face of fragmentation. The Americas require the same rigour: a platform that can scale from a single operator in Argentina to a national lottery in Brazil without breaking compliance or trust. Our nomination in Manila wasn’t an endpoint. It was a signal. Now we take that signal to Fort Lauderdale, where the real work begins.” He also pointed to Groove’s offices in Israel, Georgia, and Malta, and its 24/7 multilingual support team as part of its operating model.
