The nomination committee of Better Collective proposes that the 2021 Annual General Meeting elect Therese Hillman, former CEO of NetEnt, as new board member.

The nomination committee of Better Collective proposes that Therese Hillman is elected as new board member and also proposes the re-election of the following board members to the 2021 Annual General Meeting: Jens Bager (also to be re-elected as chairman of the board), Todd Dunlap, Klaus Holse, Leif Nørgaard and Petra von Rohr. Søren Jørgensen has decided not to seek re-election.

To complement the board, the nomination committee has actively sought a new member who has experience from the iGaming industry. The proposed new member has such a background, providing premium gaming solutions to online casino operators world wide. The committee finds that Therese Hillman is highly suited to the board of Better Collective.

Jens Bager, Chairman of the board, says: “I am very pleased that Therese Hillman has decided to seek election to Better Collective’s board of directors. Therese’s experience from the iGaming market is highly relevant for Better Collective. Therese will, among other, support the company in its ambitious strategy to continue consolidating the market and growing in new markets such as the fast growing US sports betting market. I would also like to thank Søren Jørgsensen for his outstanding efforts on the board since 2014. Søren has been instrumental in shaping the M&A strategy and building the inhouse knowledge that has led to 20 acquisitions so far. I am happy to note that Søren will take on a consultancy role to our two founders and major shareholders, CEO Jesper Søgaard and COO Christian Kirk Rasmussen, in their respective holding companies.”

Therese Hillman, a Swedish national born in 1980, was until recently Group CEO of NetEnt, a premium game supplier to online casino operators and listed on Nasdaq Stockholm. In this role, Therese has steered the company during a turnaround phase, in a time of changing regulation and market conditions, US market expansion, and a large acquisition of the fast growing competitor Red Tiger. Prior to joining NetEnt in 2017, Therese worked at Gymgrossisten.com for 10 years, where she was the CEO for 6 years and prior to that in the roles of COO and CFO. Gymgrossisten.com is a leading e-commerce sports nutrition company in the Nordics. Therese is a board member of Actic since 2018 and previously a board member of Unibet. Therese holds an M.Sc. in Accounting and Finance from Stockholm School of Economics with exchange terms at University of Virginia and University of North Georgia. Therese is considered independent in relation to Better Collective and its shareholders. Therese holds no Better Collective shares.

The Annual General Meeting will be held on April 26, 2021 at 2:00 p.m. CET. Further information can be found in the Notice of the AGM and the full proposal from the Nomination Committee which will be published before the end of March 2021.

Duelbits launches Tap Trading, a live Solana price-prediction casino game

Duelbits has launched Tap Trading, a new chart-based casino game that lets players wager on short-term movement in Solana (SOL) price data. The company said the game is now available globally on the DuelBits platform.

Tap Trading shows a continuously updating chart tracking SOL’s live price. Players wager on whether the price will move up or down over 10-second intervals, with the company stating successful predictions can pay “up to 40x” the original stake.

Duelbits positions Tap Trading as distinct from crash games and prediction markets, framing it as a real-time, rapid-cycle format built around market data rather than simulated outcomes. The operator also said the game is optimised for mobile and supports multiple currencies.

To support the launch, Duelbits said it is rolling out an acquisition and awareness campaign aimed at crypto-native audiences, including partnerships with creators and KOLs, social media activations, community initiatives and streamer collaborations.

Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits, said: “Tap Trading represents a significant step forward in how players interact with market based gaming experiences.

“With Tap Trading we created a product that feels familiar to crypto traders while remaining accessible and entertaining for casino players. We’re continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in crypto gaming, reinforcing Duelbits’ position as a leader in product innovation and delivering unique experiences that players won’t find anywhere else.”

GGPoker is bringing back its $1M Go for Gold promotion for Spin & Gold players starting June 12, with $1,000,000 in additional prizes available while supplies last, the operator said.

The promotion applies to all 3-Max and 6-Max Spin & Gold tournaments. At the start of each tournament, the prize multiplier wheel determines that game’s prize pool. Players then earn a “stamp” for each different multiplier they hit, with 3-Max and 6-Max stamps treated as interchangeable equivalents.

A player becomes eligible for an instant cash prize after collecting five different multiplier stamps, with prizes worth up to $10,000 per completed card, according to GGPoker. After opening a prize, players can begin collecting a new set of stamps 24 hours after the moment they collected the first stamp of the previous run.

“Spin & Gold games are already some of the most exciting formats we offer, but our $1M Go for Gold promotion turns the dial up to eleven,” said Paul Burke, Head of Public Relations at GGPoker. “Our community loved this promotion last year, and we couldn’t wait to bring it back. We’re thrilled to give our players another chance to turn spins into up to $10,000 in extra cash, simply by hitting the multipliers!”

GGPoker has also linked the promotion to its broader $14M June Giveaway, with full terms and conditions available on the operator’s promotional page.

Yaspa won two categories at the EGR B2B Awards 2026 on 3 June, taking home AI Solutions Provider and AI Solutions Provider at the ceremony in London.

The EGR B2B Awards, held this year at the HAC, recognise suppliers across the iGaming industry. In awarding the AI Solutions Provider trophy, judges said: “Yaspa has demonstrated a highly credible, research-backed, and socially responsible innovation that uses AI to address one of the industry’s toughest challenges: linking financial well-being with gaming behaviour. Yaspa’s Intelligent Payments platform combines technical depth, regulatory alignment, and real-world performance metrics, making it a standout entrant for categories focused on AI innovation, data analytics, or responsible gambling enablement.”

For Safer Gambling Supplier, the judges added: “Yaspa has delivered a strong and innovative submission focused on financial vulnerability and demonstrating a great take on open-banking’s ability to link to at-risk indicators. Intelligent Payments is well aligned to current affordability challenges and provides useful research validation.”

James Neville, CEO of Yaspa, said: “To win not one but two awards at the coveted EGR B2B Awards is an incredible achievement and testament to the great work the whole Yaspa team has done from the company’s inception to now.

“The recognition by the industry of how our technology is using AI to make gambling safer shows the direction the market is heading and how we are leading the technological innovation in this space, from the front.”

Yaspa said the wins follow a period of growth over the past 18 months, including a $12m investment round in July led by Discerning Capital. The company also referenced the opening of a new Atlanta office in the US and a tech hub in Leeds, UK, in August 2025.
