The International Betting Integrity Association (IBIA) reported 38 cases of suspicious betting to the relevant authorities during the second quarter (Q2) of 2021. The Q2 2021 total represents a 41% decrease in reported alerts when compared to the Q1 total of 64 and represents a similar decrease when compared to the Q2 2020 total, which saw 65 alerts. The Q2 alerts covered football (16 cases), table tennis (9), tennis (6), eSports (6) and beach volleyball (1). From a geographical perspective, Europe accounted for nearly half (47%) of all alerts reported, followed by Asia and South America with 13% each.

Khalid Ali, CEO of IBIA, said: “The 38 cases in Q2 added to the 64 cases in Q1 brings the mid-year total to 102 alerts reported by the association. Football has provided the highest number of alerts during that period with 28, followed by tennis (24) and eSports (23). These three sports comprise nearly 75% of all alerts reported in the first half of 2021. IBIA’s expanding membership means that, as set out in the recently published Optimum Betting Market report, it now represents $137bn in global regulated betting turnover per annum making it the largest customer-based integrity platform in the world with nearly 50% of the commercial online market.”

Other key data for Q2 2021:

  • 5 – the number of different sports reported in Q2
  • 6 – alerts on tennis (the lowest since IBIA began producing quarterly reports in 2015)
  • 15 – different countries where alerts were reported
  • 16 – alerts reported on football in Q2 (an increase of 33% on Q1 2021)

It is run by operators for operators, protecting its members from corruption through collective action. Its monitoring and alert platform is a highly effective anti-corruption tool that detects and reports suspicious activity on its members’ betting markets.

Play’n GO invites players underwater in Bubblin’ Riches, a 6×4 slot where golden coins and greedy fish collide for submerged surprises.

Set in a playful underwater reef, Bubblin’ Riches brings a burst of colour and charm to the reels. At the heart of the action is a bloated Goldfish with a hoarding habit – every Coin Scatter that lands could feed its fortune, or set off a surprise payout. As part of Play’n GO’s expanding roster of quirky, character-led games, this release turns Hold & Spin mechanics into something far more unpredictable, with a visual flair that brings every coin flip to life.

Bubblin’ Riches thrives on suspense and spectacle. Players can trigger Lock’n Gold by landing six Coin Scatters – launching a sticky respin feature where coins flip to reveal multipliers up to 10x, and a full screen secures an instant 500x win. Meanwhile, the towering coin stack above the reels is more than just a visual gag: it can burst at any moment, showering players with jackpots up to 1,000x. For those chasing longevity, Reward Spins introduce sticky Wild Multipliers and up to 65 spins – all anchored by a spinning prize wheel.

Fans of whimsical, visual-forward slots like Hugo Carts or Nyjah Huston – Skate for Gold will find plenty to love in Bubblin’ Riches. Its character-first design and surprise-based mechanics align with Play’n GO’s wider focus on entertainment, while the bubbling tension of the Goldfish jackpot stack introduces a fresh twist to classic features.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Bubblin’ Riches builds anticipation in every spin, with a charming visual twist. It’s a playful example of how we blend innovative mechanics with entertainment value.”

This light-hearted slot blends humour, excitement, and vivid visuals – perfect for players looking to dip into something refreshingly different.

Blueprint Gaming™ has introduced a new four pots mechanic and enlarged 5×3 grid to its latest release, Cash Strike Power Force 5, marking an innovative double debut for the internationally recognised series.

With various iterations from the Cash Strike family consistently ranking in the supplier’s top 10 revenue-generating markets, the new title builds on the impressive momentum from its predecessors.

In a series first, four newly introduced collect symbols are gathered alongside cash icons by their matching symbols sitting above the reels. In an immediate enhancement to base play, once any of the four have been gathered, they pose a chance of triggering the Cash Strike Bonus Game with their respective modifiers – Expand, Boost, Multiply or Respin.

Standing as the game’s showstopper, landing a collect symbol on reel three can also randomly trigger Power Force 5, which sees the bonus game launch with all four pot features in play, considerably boosting the win potential on offer.

If three or more cash or collect symbols are secured on consecutive reels, traditional entry to bonus play is granted, which also features one of the four modifiers in action.

For those in pursuit of further engagement, Power Play is also welcomed back in Blueprint’s October release. Available at 5x the original bet, only cash or collect symbols feature, adding a lavish flair to the reels.

Cash Strike Power Force 5 showcases Blueprint Gaming’s commitment to developing new concepts that attract the attention of players and deliver increased engagement opportunities for operators worldwide.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events, said:Cash Strike Power Force 5 represents everything players and operators love about the Cash Strike series, while taking things to the next level with our new four-pots mechanic and expanded reel set.

“The introduction of varied modifiers, including the intriguing Power Force 5 feature, injects fresh excitement into every spin, demonstrating our continued drive to evolve top-performing formats with bold and engaging innovations.”
