Betsson enters into an international agreement with Avaldsnes IL
The Karmøy football club signs its largest sponsorship agreement ever.
Betsson has signed a main sponsorship agreement with the Norwegian Toppserie club, Avaldsnes IL. The sponsorship is another step in Betsson’s commitment to diversity and gender equality in sports.
Betsson already has boxing stars Katharina Thanderz and Cecilia Brækhus signed to their name but is now further strengthening its female profile by becoming main sponsors of Avaldsnes IL.
As a club, Avaldsnes has built a name for itself in Europe through strong performances in the Champions League in recent years. Through this agreement, Betsson provides financial support to Avaldsnes in their journey to qualify for the Champions League every season. It will also support them in their long-term goal of establishing themselves as a top team in Europe.
Ronni Hartvig, Chief Commercial Officer at Betsson Group said, “At Betsson, we believe in diversity as a key innovation factor in all areas, including sports. We are happy to witness more interest in women’s football and we want to be part of that drive. We also believe that our brand will get valuable worldwide exposure in future Champions League matches. This is a strategic agreement that we are confident will benefit both parties in the years to come.”
Speaking about the agreement, Stian Staveland Nygaard, General Manager of Avaldsnes Elite, believes the deal with Betsson is a key element to be able to reach the club’s goals. “Running a top club aspiring to win the league and to play in the Champions League is expensive. In order to fulfil our ambitions, we depend on strong sponsors backing us, and we are very happy that we landed this agreement with Betsson. It is our biggest sponsorship deal of all time and provides stability in these challenging times.
“The sponsorship market has changed during this last year, and we have had to think differently. Having Betsson as a partner believing in our project allows us to invest, instead of having to lower our ambitions, which would have been the sad alternative,” said Stian.
The sponsorship agreement is part of Betsson’s international marketing strategy and is expected to affect all markets in which Betsson operates. As the main sponsor, Betsson has secured exposure through kit advertising in matches played outside of Norway. For matches in Norway, Betsson has renounced kit exposure in favour of Avaldsnes to further promote their ‘#EqualOpportunities’ campaign.
The #EqualOpportunities campaign has been since 2017 raising awareness on the differences between men’s and women’s football. The goal is to ensure that girls and boys have equal opportunities to reach the top. “Sadly, gender differences in Norwegian football are still huge and this is something we want to change. Therefore, we are happy with Betsson’s support to let us promote the ‘#EqualOpportunities’ campaign on our kit when we play matches in Norway,” concluded Stian.
Betsson’s Ronni Hartvig is also pleased that Betsson can provide support for such an important message. “While we are waiting for Norway to introduce a licensing system that allows us to further invest on Norwegian soil, ‘#EqualOpportunities’ is a great message that we want to support. For us, ‘#EqualOpportunities’ also has another connotation as it’s in line with our work for Norway to follow most of Europe by offering us an equal opportunity by introducing a licensing system,” concluded Ronni.

FairGambling Launches Crypto Casino Review and Analytics Platform With Provably Fair Tools and Extra Rewards
New York, USA, June 5th, 2026, PlayNewswire
FairGambling, a new transparency and rewards platform for crypto casino players and Bitcoin gamblers, today announced its public launch. The platform combines on-chain analytics, provably fair verification tools, independent crypto casino reviews, live bonus code feeds, and an extra rewards program offering up to 30% rakeback across 40+ major crypto casino operators including Stake, Roobet, Shuffle, BC.Game, Gamdom, Bitcasino, 1win, Winna, Thrill and Duel, with much more to come.
FairGambling launches into a market that processed over $80 billion in crypto casino deposit volume last year. The platform’s analytics layer already tracks $45 billion+ of that flow in real time across the operators it covers. Despite the market’s scale, players still have limited tools to verify fairness, compare operators, or independently assess where their money is going.
Built as a Utility Layer, Not Another Affiliate Site
“Most casino review sites today are just rankings and sign-up bonuses,” said Seb, Co-Founder of FairGambling. “We wanted to build something different. A place where players can actually see what’s happening on-chain, verify their own bets, compare casinos based on data instead of marketing, and earn real rewards on top. All for free, with no obligations. That’s the gap we’re filling, and what’s live today is just the start of what we’re building.”
The platform brings together several player-first tools in one place:
- On-chain crypto casino analytics, tracking real-time deposit volume, market share, unique depositors, and hot wallet activity across 50+ operators
- Provably fair verifier for independently checking game outcomes from Stake, Roobet, Shuffle and other major operators
- Independent crypto casino reviews and ratings scored across 10 weighted categories including fairness, financial transparency, KYC and licensing, compliance, and customer support
- Live bonus code feed aggregating active promotions from supported operators
- Bonus calculator and Stake stats calculator for analyzing personal betting history and rakeback value
- Blackjack trainer for practicing basic strategy
- Extra rakeback rewards program offering up to 30% on supported crypto casinos
Data-Driven Casino Comparison
Unlike traditional affiliate sites that rank casinos based on commercial agreements, FairGambling’s ratings are built from a weighted rubric covering analytics, fairness, financial transparency, bonus structure, compliance, and security. Each operator profile includes deposit volumes, hot wallet visibility, license details, no-KYC policies, bonus testing results showing how much players actually receive back in rewards when wagering a given amount, and side-by-side comparisons against other operators on the same metrics.
The analytics section is open to all visitors and shows live on-chain flows, allowing players to see which operators are processing real volume versus those with thin activity. This is a data point traditionally only available to industry insiders.
Community Reviews and Earning Crypto

FairGambling places verified player reviews at the center of its review system. Verified users can earn crypto rewards for eligible contributions, and the platform requires casino activity verification (such as VIP tier or wager history) before reviews are approved, which is intended to filter out the fake reviews common to other online gambling review sites.
“Trust in this space is broken,” Seb added. “We’re not going to fix that overnight, but giving players the data, the tools, and the rewards to actually engage critically with the operators they use, that’s the foundation. Everything else builds on that.”
The platform helps players find the best crypto casinos based on data, verify game fairness, and earn extra rakeback on top of what casinos already offer. FairGambling is now live and available worldwide, subject to local laws and eligibility requirements.

Soft2Bet Wins in Two Categories at the EGR B2B Awards 2026
Soft2Bet has won two major honours at the EGR B2B Awards 2026. The igaming company took home titles for Innovation in Mobile and Innovation in Casino Software.
The awards recognise Soft2Bet’s ability to turn product development into practical growth tools for operators, from native mobile apps and platform migration to MEGA and back-office control. Its technology is shaped by local market needs, partner strategy and strict compliance standards, helping operators launch securely, adapt quickly and grow in competitive markets.
The Innovation in Casino Software award highlights Soft2Bet’s casino platform, back-office tools and MEGA, its Motivational Engineering Gaming Application. The platform brings casino, sportsbook, CRM, CMS, KYC, payments, risk, promotions and player engagement into a single operating setup, giving operators greater control and reducing the need to manage multiple suppliers.
MEGA adds gamification engines to casino and sportsbook journeys through missions, challenges, rewards, segmentation and player progression. For operators, this supports stronger retention, higher LTV and clearer commercial performance. Recent network performance figures show 190% year-on-year Casino Games GGR growth, 173% year-on-year Sportsbook GGR growth, more than 200 million game rounds processed each day and 99.99% platform uptime.
Andrew Cochrane, Chief Commercial Officer at Soft2Bet, said: “Recognition from EGR is a strong endorsement of the product development our teams are delivering across mobile, casino software and gamification. Operators want technology that helps them compete, retain players and improve performance without adding unnecessary complexity. These awards support that direction and give us added momentum as we bring MEGA and our platform to more partners.”
The Innovation in Mobile award highlights Soft2Bet’s native app delivery and mobile-first design. Its edge-optimised mobile architecture supports fast load times, stable gameplay, simple one-thumb navigation, haptic feedback, adjustable text sizes and voice-enabled navigation.
Recent mobile work across Betinia and Swiper shows how Soft2Bet creates distinct app journeys for different brands and markets. Betinia reached No. 1 in Sweden and Denmark, and QuickCasino Sweden recorded a 30% improvement in conversion following an App Store Product Page test.
Soft2Bet’s two wins at the EGR B2B Awards 2026 add further recognition to 10 years of building iGaming technology for operators. The company continues to expand its B2B turnkey offering for operators seeking platform migration, native mobile apps and support for new market launches.
Each project is shaped around local player behaviour, partner strategy and strict compliance standards, helping operators enter markets securely and reduce operational complexity. MEGA, Soft2Bet’s API-based gamification product for casino and sportsbook, adds missions, rewards, segmentation and player progression, supporting stronger engagement, retention, LTV and long-term commercial performance.
