Southampton Football Club is pleased to announce that it has agreed to extend its partnership with the Coingaming Group as Main Club Partner for a further three years in a deal that will see their brand, Sportsbet.io continue as the club’s front-of-shirt sponsor.

The deal is the biggest sponsorship agreement in the club’s history and also includes the option for the club to be paid certain performance-based bonuses in Bitcoin at the end of each season, allowing the club the opportunity to take advantage of the new, high-growth currency if it feels it will bring significant future benefits.

This partnership will allow Sportsbet.io to continue to build on the strong relationship it has built with the club and its supporters in the last year. Since becoming Main Club Partner in August 2020, when they stepped in at short notice to take over the front-of-shirt sponsorship, they have worked tirelessly with the club to create a positive impact in the local community and highlight the importance of safe betting – a duty they take extremely seriously. This work has included their ‘Listen To The Saint In You’ campaign that was launched during Safer Gambling Week, linking up with a number of Saints players to encourage fans to consider the risks before placing a bet.

They have also played a key role in the club’s launch of the Positive Impact Pledge, which enabled start-ups and entrepreneurs to apply for grants to help launch their businesses during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Most recently Sportsbet.io also donated their shirt sponsorship to the Saints Foundation for the Premier League match against Burnley to help drive awareness of the Foundation’s fundraising efforts as they aim to raise vital funds lost due to the pandemic. This gesture alone helped the Foundation raise thousands of pounds on the day, a figure that was topped up by Sportsbet.io, who very generously donated an additional £10k.

Southampton Football Club’s Chief Commercial Officer, David Thomas commented: “The team at Sportsbet.io have built a successful business by challenging convention and disrupting the market, but in a responsible way, and their approach to our partnership with them has been no different.

“In a short timeframe they’ve proven to be innovative, forward thinking and extremely supportive of the club, our fans and the wider community, and we’ve welcomed the opportunity to develop and promote safe gambling messages together. As such they have become valued partners and we look forward to the next chapter together”

CEO of the Coingaming Group Maarja Pärt, added: “Our first season as Southampton FC’s Main Club Partner has already exceeded all expectations. We’ve been inspired by the passion of the club and its fans, and it was an easy decision for us to extend our partnership with the Saints for another three years.

“From the beginning, Southampton have been a perfect match for the fun, fast and fair way we do things at Sportsbet.io. We can’t wait to continue this journey with the Saints, and we’ll be doing everything we can to support the team and its community into the future.

Designed for seamless play on any device, it is fully optimized for mobile gameplay, including a specially designed portrait mode.

“The original The Line was a massive hit for its clean design and engaging mechanics. With The Line x2, we’ve listened to our players and amplified everything they loved,” said Michael Hilary, Manager of CryptoSlots. “We’ve added a line, packed it with powerful new features, and wrapped it all in a visually stunning neon package.

BC.GAME announced the launch of Tap Trading (a touch-to-payout multiplier game) on its platform. At launch, Tap Trading will support multiple mainstream crypto pairs, including ETH/USDT, SOL/USDT and STONKS/USDT. Users can access the product in the Web/App “Crypto Futures” section.

BC.GAME already offers a diversified product lineup spanning casino, sports and market mini-games—including UP DOWN, HIGH LOW and HIGH LOW SPREAD. The addition of Tap Trading further expands BC.GAME’s market-interaction experiences, allowing users to engage with highly liquid crypto assets through a simple, convenient price-touch mechanic.

Unlike traditional derivatives, Tap Trading makes potential return and loss visible before order placement. Users tap a green target block on the right-hand grid to place an order; each block displays its multiplier and time window. If the price curve touches the selected block before the timer expires, settlement is made by that block’s multiplier (total return = stake × multiplier). If the target is not touched, the stake is lost. This design significantly simplifies operation and outcome determination, enabling users to express views not only on direction, but also on magnitude and time.

Jack, CEO of BC.GAME, said: “Adding Tap Trading to our platform fills a gap in lightweight market-interaction gameplay and reflects users’ demand for a simple, direct way to participate in crypto markets. Whether you’re market-savvy or trying this for the first time, Tap Trading offers a clearer experience with visible parameters and well-defined boundaries.”

Jack added: “Combining such an intuitive mechanic with our ongoing work on real-time pricing and product polish marks another important step forward for BC.GAME’s crypto entertainment offering.”
