CashtoCode, the instant cash payment service for online merchants, today announced its new leadership team following a hugely successful 12 months. iGaming is a key market for CashtoCode and by offering operators access to a new market sector of customers who prefer cash payments, CashtoCode grew revenues by 500% in 2020. It also added more than 100 new merchants to its platform and can now be used by customers across 150,000 retail locations in Europe (including thousands of Paypoint locations in the UK, as well as gas stations and supermarkets). CashtoCode’s unique approach is its highly controlled, closed loop cash deposit mechanism. The service is designed to make compliance easy for merchants and iGaming operators, and eliminate fraud/money laundering concerns – since its cash deposit codes can only be redeemed by customers verified by the merchant and cannot be transferred between individuals.

The new team consists of three accomplished payments and iGaming professionals, with vast experience building international payment products and navigating complex regulatory landscapes. The objective of the new leadership team will be to continue CashtoCode’s growth trajectory, winning more new merchants, new users, and expanding geographically:

Jens Bader – Chief Executive Officer
Payment industry veteran and entrepreneur. MuchBetter/MIR co-founder, ex-CCO at Secure Trading and paysafecard

Christian Machmeier – Chief Technology Officer
A technology-expert with previous senior roles at Gameforge and Audi

Patrick Lebenbauer – Director of Global Marketing
A marketing leader in the iGaming & payments space with previous leading roles at Tipico & KaFe Rocks.

“CashtoCode offers a second life to cash, which remains hugely popular despite the growth of card, open banking and online payments,” said CashtoCode CEO, Jens Bader. “We enable merchants to target a market sector that they couldn’t reach without an instant cash deposit partner. For example, in iGaming, helping operators capitalise on the growing intersection of iGaming and cash. During the pandemic, many venues and activities that would typically take cash payments were not open, but their customer-base never left. These are people who still prefer to pay by cash wherever possible, for privacy, self-control and security reasons. Many have not switched to online banking, but have instead utilised services like ours to pay with cash for their online activities.”

With exciting new launches planned for the summer and autumn seasons, we are eager to share them through this partnership.

Aviator Studio Achieves Major Legal Victory in São Paulo

Brazilian courts persist in denying SPRIBE’s injunction efforts as Aviator Studio achieves another two-instance triumph in São Paulo.

Aviator Studio achieved another legal triumph in Brazil as São Paulo courts denied further injunction requests submitted by SPRIBE in cases directly involving Aviator Studio.

Significantly, the recent decisions relate to the direct legal contention between Aviator Studio and SPRIBE, distinct from the previously mentioned cases involving Foggo Entertainment and Betnacional.

After securing consecutive wins in Brazil related to Foggo Entertainment, Aviator Studio has now announced that courts in São Paulo have also ruled in its favor at both judicial levels of the case.

In every instance, the courts denied the immediate actions requested by SPRIBE. Consequently, Aviator Studio and its associates can maintain their operations while the wider AVIATOR trademark conflict advances through the evidential stage.

The rulings contribute to an escalating number of courtroom defeats for SPRIBE in Brazil and further bolster Aviator Studio’s legal stance in the related proceedings linked to the AVIATOR dispute, as associated cases progress in various jurisdictions.

Commenting on the development, representatives from Aviator Studio said: “These outcomes continue to confirm a clear judicial pattern. Attempts to obtain urgent injunctions against Aviator Studio and its partners in Brazil are consistently being rejected by the courts.”
