Huawei is inviting global developers to bring their apps and games to their next stage of growth through AppGallery during its upcoming featured developer sessions at the annual Gaming Developer Conference (GDC) 2021.

The 2021 edition will see the conference go all-digital, allowing the event to be accessible to even more people with online attendance.

Educational sessions to help developers grow and prosper

The two sessions will bring developers through an educational journey on how AppGallery plays a critical role as a key platform to developer’s growth strategy, as well as explore new ways of monetisation strategy for mobile games with Huawei Ads.

“Gaming is going through several fundamental transitions from the evolving demographics of global game players to a transformation of cross-platform gaming experiences,” said Alexandre Salem, Global Gaming Business Development Director. “AppGallery presents unique growth opportunities with its extensive distribution, market reach, and strength in the Chinese market; with Huawei’s combined hardware and software innovation with HarmonyOS and HMS, it delivers an elevated experience that can maximize the value for gaming partners and users.”

From launch to marketing support, AppGallery provides valuable resources for developers to help expand their growth opportunities with every new game they release.

“We are excited to meet global game developers and invite everybody to explore the next growth opportunity with AppGallery. We are also very grateful to have our partners Playrix and Gameloft join us to share their journey with AppGallery, and hope more partners will join us to explore more and expand together with AppGallery,” he added.

In the following session ‘HUAWEI Ads: Drive Growth with a New Ad Platform’, Aoife Brodigan, Marketing Director, Huawei Mobile Services, Europe, and Stephane Fournis, Director of Business Development, HUAWEI Ads, Europe, will be introducing the HUAWEI Ads’ new monetisation opportunities, the platform’s unique value and support, as well strategic tips to drive growth through building new revenue streams.

As part of the GDC 2021 sessions, Huawei will also unveil an in-depth case study ebook of its recently concluded inaugural global Game Fest campaign, which saw doubling its daily download figures to over 1.2 million hits during the height of the campaign. The eBook shares in detail the journey and achievements of each of the 13 participating developers, and the support they received to help their games flourish on AppGallery. More details will be made available during the week of GDC 2021.

Vegangster Powers Reels Points, the New Coin-Based Loyalty System on Reels.io

Reels.io has added Reels Points, a new loyalty layer powered by Vegangster. Players earn coins by playing casino games or placing bets. Coins can be tracked in the player profile and redeemed in the Vegangster-powered Lootbox Shop.

Two bigger steps are next. The first is on-platform: coins will soon be spendable across a selection of games as in-play credit, opening up a second use case beyond the Lootbox Shop. The second is on-chain. Reels.io is heading toward a $REELS Token Generation Event, at which point accumulated Reels Points will convert into Reels Tokens, a publicly traded cryptocurrency.

That turns the loyalty layer into a stake in the brand itself, and gives players a real choice along the way: spend coins now on lootboxes and in-game perks, or stack them for the token conversion later.

The system is 100% Vegangster-developed and currently available only on Reels.io. It will roll out to select partners first, then be offered to all Vegangster clients, with the crypto layer as an optional component depending on each operator’s market.

Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, commented: “Reels.io is the kind of brand that pushes a system to its limits, which is exactly why we wanted them as the first deployment. They are running the points layer and the Lootbox Shop now, with in-game spending and a token conversion already mapped out. What works for them sets the bar for the version we roll out across the rest of our network.”

The Reels.io launch is the first deployment of what Vegangster sees as a long-term loyalty product. With the points layer live, the Lootbox Shop active, and a clear path toward in-game spending and token conversion, the system is built to grow with the brands running it.

About Reels.io

Reels.io is an online casino and sportsbook offering a wide library of slots, table games, live dealer content, and sports and esports markets, along with regular rewards and promotions for active players.

About Vegangster

Its turnkey, white-label, and sweepstakes solutions bring casino and sportsbook content, payments, CRM, compliance, and social features together in one mobile-first system.

N1 SEO Traffic Cup — the first tournament in the N1 Traffic Cups series is coming to an end, with April 30 as the final day of the promo. Over the 2 months, around 300 teams joined the promo, driving SEO traffic to N1 Partners’ casino and betting brands.

Participants competed not only on volume, but also on efficiency, strategic thinking, and scaling. The more brands a partner drove traffic to, the higher their coefficient for score calculation was. The final results depend entirely on each team’s own performance — that makes the tournament fair and engaging.

The winners will be announced by May 10. In this article, you’ll find out which brands delivered the strongest results in the N1 SEO Traffic Cup, along with key trends in working with this traffic source.

N1 SEO Traffic Cup: Wrap-Up

The N1 Partners expert team answered the hottest questions about the tournament wrap-up — insights that can be valuable for partners who keep running SEO traffic to N1 brands.

1. Which brands showed the best performance during the tournament?

Several brands clearly stood out:

HollyWin
Slot Mafia
Lucky Hunter
RollXO
Slot Lounge

2. What do the tournament results say about the current state of SEO traffic in iGaming?

The key takeaway: SEO remains one of the core channels in iGaming. However, it’s evolving and adapting in response to Google updates. This is no longer about writing articles and getting traffic — it’s about systematic unit economics management.

An interesting point — the tournament mechanics focused not on volume, but on efficiency (FTD + coefficients). This clearly shows that iGaming SEO is shifting from mass traffic to controlled performance.

It’s also worth noting that the rule “There are no fixed winners — KPI execution matters more than leaderboard position” gave every participant a real shot at top prizes, while competitors’ results served as additional motivation for growth.

3. What key trends did you observe among top participants?

Several major trends stood out:

Multi-brand strategy = a must-have
Top performers don’t rely on a single offer — they build strategies around a portfolio of brands. This proves that SEO is moving closer to media buying.
Aggregators, comparison pages, and multi-intent pages are effective
Among the top-performing approaches: offerwall pages, cross-brand strategies, and parasite SEO.

Stay tuned for updates on the N1 SEO Traffic Cup from N1 Partners to find out who landed in the prize tiers and what rewards the top teams received — final results will be announced separately by May 10.

And this isn’t the end — a new tournament from the N1 Traffic Cups series will start very soon. Follow the announcements not to miss your chance and jump back into the competition, sharpen your skills, as well as compete for even bigger prizes.
