PRAGMATIC PLAY CONTINUES TO RAISE THE BAR BY GIVING AWAY €1,000,000 PER MONTH THROUGH THEIR POWERHOUSE DROPS & WINS PROMOTION
Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the iGaming industry, will keep delivering consistent prizes to players as its powerhouse promotion Drops & Wins continues with a winter edition. Players and operators will be delighted to hear that the staggering prize pool of €1,000,000 per month is being maintained.
The Drops and Wins promotion was created by Pragmatic Play and is one of the largest prize pools ever fully sponsored by a game provider. The prize pool is split 50/50 between Slots and Live Casino. The winter edition takes place from the 17th November to the 9th February as Pragmatic Play has no intention of stopping the promotion that represents their relentless commitment to take player entertainment to the next level.
The winter edition of Drops and Wins brings a huge upgrade as Pragmatic Play is now including the Prize Drops feature in all Live Casino titles. Prize Drop mechanics can reward players completely at random as they place real-money qualifying bets in any of the games. The ‘anytime, anywhere’ nature of Prize Drops will now add a new layer of excitement to Pragmatic Play’s already innovative Live Casino portfolio.
Prize Drops is a very popular in-game promotional tool for Pragmatic Play’s iconic Slot favourites such as such as The Dog House Megaways along with new releases such as Gates of Olympus, but it is completely unique for Live Casino games across the whole industry.
This means that the most hotly anticipated Pragmatic Play Live Casino release of the year will have Prize Drops available for players. Sweet Bonanza CandyLand is the Live Casino version of the hugely successful candy-themed slot Sweet Bonanza Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “The Drops and Wins feature has been well received by both players and operators since its inception. The idea behind Drops and Wins was simple but profound, we tried to give players more of the feeling they seek when playing our games, the winning feeling. By adding Prize Drops to our Live Casino offering, we feel this brings another dimension of excitement to this great product.
Sweet Bonanza Candyland is going to turn some heads for sure when it launches in November, and by including Prize Drops, we are aiming to make a great product even better.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to five new Slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through one single API.

Partnership includes Men’s and Women’s football, Olympic sports, and Flamengo TV
Betano, one of the world’s largest online sports betting and gaming brands, has become the new principal and front-of-shirt partner of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo. The agreement, until the end of 2028, covers the men’s and women’s professional football teams, Olympic sports, and Flamengo TV.

The club’s nationwide reach and passionate following were some of the key factors leading to the new partnership. For Flamengo, Betano is seen as the ideal partner to support its international expansion, with activations planned in both Europe and Latin America as part of the agreement. Equally important, Betano is a brand leading at the forefront of promoting responsible gaming, both in Brazil and across the international markets where it operates.
“Sponsoring Flamengo is a strategic decision that connects us with the largest and most passionate fan base in Brazil, strengthens our presence in the country and further expands our brand globally. We understand the responsibility this partnership carries and are committed to building a successful journey alongside the club,” said George Daskalakis, co-founder and CEO of Kaizen Gaming, operator of the Betano brand.
In addition to brand exposure through teams and athletes, the partnership also includes investment in social and sports development initiatives, reinforcing Betano’s and Flamengo’s commitment to creating a positive impact both on and off the field.
“This partnership with Betano is historic for Flamengo. Beyond being the biggest sponsorship in Brazilian football, it strengthens our projects across football and Olympic sports, supports our global expansion, and reinforces our commitment to our fans”, commented Luis Eduardo Baptista, President of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo.

Mobile iGaming isn’t a trend anymore—it’s the new default. With 96% of the world’s digital population accessing the internet via smartphones, operators can no longer treat mobile as a “nice to have.” On Atlaslive, most players already come through mobile, showing just how deep this shift has gone. So they have investigated the reasons for it.
5 reasons are driving the rise of mobile play:
- Smartphones & 5G: Affordable devices and low-latency connections make betting and live casino seamless.
- Mobile-first UX: Fingerprint login, in-game wallets, and scrollable lobbies remove friction.
- New market regulations: Markets like Brazil are now opening to licensed apps, unlocking millions of players.
- Frictionless payments: From Apple Pay to Brazil’s Biometric Pix, fast deposits are now a mobile-native feature.
- User behavior shifts: Millennials and Gen Z expect short, impulsive, on-the-go sessions—and mobile delivers.
Mobile iGaming has clearly become the main arena for user activity and revenue growth. To find out more and see how operators can improve engagement and drive revenue with mobile strategies, read the full article.
