Rubik Talent, a technology and sales consultancy focused on diverse talent, declares its support for the men and women leaving the Armed Forces.

The Forces Transition Group, an initiative supporting the transition from Military to Civilian life is delighted to welcome Rubik Talent as a Silver Partner.

Rubik Talent, a fast-growing startup supporting the iGaming, Payments & FinTech industries, has a mission to cultivate brilliant minds, through technical training programmes with industry focus; to help leading technology companies foster a talented, diverse and inclusive workforce.

The Partnership will provide a bridge to those leaving the Forces through professional skills, industry education and technical vocational training. As part of the agreement those who leave the Forces and join FTG will then become eligible to join Rubik Talent’s Academy for Sales or Technology. Through this Partnership, the organisations aim to develop meaningful skills, support positive mental health and inclusion in the workplace.

Robin MacDonald, Rubik Talent Co-Founder said:- “We are thrilled to be partnering with the Forces Transition Group to offer career opportunities to Veterans through our Academy. High growth, tech-based industries like iGaming, Payments and FinTech are all suffering from a lack of talent. This Partnership will provide access to highly skilled, dedicated professionals who are serious about their careers and supporting the industries we serve. On the flip side, ex-services men and women will have the opportunity to take the next meaningful step in their journey”

John Stephenson, Forces Transition Group Founder said:- “It is with great pleasure that The Forces Transition Group (FTG) welcome a top-quality organisation in Rubik Talent to our fantastic audience of service leavers, veterans, and spouses. The legacy we must provide for the future is to create an Exit Strategy for every single person that serves their country and for their families.

“The FTG are delighted to include and provide opportunities in Gaming/IT/Recruitment/Sales across the UK to a cohort of brilliant individuals who have skills that are untouched and not understood through their partnership with Rubik Talent.

“The IT world as we all know is huge but the potential of service people in this arena is uptapped and being missed. Sixty percent of those who work with the FTG have a technical background, aligning them perfectly to these great opportunities. It is imperative that we provide an easy and clear path from the military to business.

“We look forward to a long and successful future with Rubik Talent, creating THE JOB not A JOB for every HUNTER leaving the Armed Forces.”

7Games partners with FIRST.bet to deliver Tier-1 sportsbook technology to one of Brazil’s largest casino operators.

7Games, Betão, and R7—brands managed by OIG Gaming Brazil Ltda. and recognized as key players in Brazil’s casino-led betting market—have launched a comprehensive sportsbook platform powered by FIRST.bet’s leading Tier-1 technology.

As one of Brazil’s most prominent casino operators, OIG Gaming Brazil Ltda. opted for FIRST.bet to seamlessly expand its reach into the sports betting sector across its trio of brands. This partnership underscores the scalability and robustness of FIRST.bet, demonstrating its capacity to support large-scale, multi-brand ecosystems in the competitive Brazilian market.

Leveraging FIRST.bet’s SportOS operating system, 7Games developed a customized sportsbook front end tailored to its unique branding and user experience. While players interact with a platform fully reflective of 7Games’ identity—from design to functionality—the underlying engine driving trading, pricing, live markets, and overall performance is powered by FIRST.bet.

As a casino-first operator venturing into sports betting, 7Games required a sportsbook solution aligning directly with the nuances of the Brazilian market. FIRST.bet delivered exactly that: a product optimized for Brazil, complete with Brazilian-Portuguese language capabilities, odds models tailored for national leagues, and high-performance live betting, trading, and risk management systems to meet the demands of a competitive scale.

“Brazil isn’t a market where you can afford slow growth—your product must hit the ground running,” explained Fernando Oliveira Lima, Founder and CEO of 7Games. “FIRST.bet provided us with a solution already optimized for this market, allowing us to concentrate on serving our players rather than troubleshooting underlying technology.”

Echoing this sentiment, Tom Light, Founder and CEO of FIRST.bet, added, “Success in Brazil hinges on getting the product right from day one. Operators who fail to meet those expectations are quickly left behind. With 7Games already commanding significant casino traffic, they now have a sportsbook designed to handle that scale. It’s their unique brand experience backed by an engine built for top-tier performance, which is exactly why we developed SportOS.”

7Games, Betão & R7 Launch FIRST.bet Sportsbook in Brazil

7Games selects FIRST.bet to bring Tier-1 sportsbook technology to one of the biggest casino operators in Brazil.

7Games, Betão and R7, three brands operated by OIG Gaming Brazil Ltda. and among Brazil’s largest casino-led betting brands, have gone live with a full sportsbook powered by Tier-1 technology from FIRST.bet.

Already among Brazil’s biggest casino operators, OIG chose FIRST.bet to power the move into sports across all three brands, proving the engine reaches Brazil-scale operators running multiple brands at once.

7Games built its own sportsbook front end on SportOS, the FIRST.bet operating system, with the FIRST.bet engine running underneath. Players see a sportsbook that is entirely 7Games, its brand, its design, its experience, while the trading, pricing, live markets and performance come from FIRST.bet.

7Games is a casino-led brand moving into sports, so it needed a sportsbook that already fits Brazil, not one it would have to adapt. FIRST.bet ships that out of the box: a Brazilian-Portuguese product, odds models tuned to the Brazilian leagues, and the live betting, trading and risk management needed to compete at national scale.

“Brazil is not a market you can grow into slowly. The product has to work from day one,” said Fernando Oliveira Lima, Founder and CEO of 7Games. “FIRST.bet gave us a sportsbook that already fits this market, so we could focus on our players instead of fixing the technology underneath them.”

“Brazil rewards operators who get the product right and punishes the ones who don’t,” said Tom Light, Founder and CEO of FIRST.bet. “7Games already commands serious traffic on the casino side. Now they have a sportsbook built to hold up under that kind of pressure, on their own front-end, running on our engine. That is exactly what SportOS was built for.”

The new football-themed title keeps CreedRoomz’ existing mechanics and adds a Maradona-branded visual overhaul and 10,000x max payout claim.

CreedRoomz has launched a new live game show, “Maradona Run,” which the supplier says is backed by official rights and is now available to partner operators on the CreedRoomz Live Casino platform.

The company positions the release around the upcoming World Cup games, with a football-themed reskin of its existing interactive game show concept. CreedRoomz said the game’s “logic and core mechanics remain exactly the same,” while the visual identity has been rebuilt around a 3D animated caricature of Diego Maradona in a number 10 jersey.

Maradona Run combines a lottery-style ball draw, where players can manage up to eight interactive cards, with an “endless runner” bonus round. In the bonus sequence, the Maradona character runs through an obstacle course collecting glowing soccer balls that the supplier says translate into gameplay advantages including multipliers, speed boosts and prize doublers. CreedRoomz stated the game has a maximum payout potential of up to 10,000x the bet.

“Securing the official rights for Maradona Run allows us to hand our partners a massive competitive advantage just in time for the World Cup games,” said Armen Mnatsakanyan, Head of Sales Department at CreedRoomz. “By merging the legendary global appeal of Maradona with our high-retention endless-runner mechanic, we have created a premium crossover product that effortlessly converts football fans into loyal live casino players. The proven logic and math models are exactly what operators trust, but the brand power and vibrant new look make this a must-have commercial powerhouse.”

The title features a live presenter alongside the animated character and includes three bonus ticket tiers—Sprint, Trailblaze, and Marathon—intended to provide multiple bonus-entry paths per round, according to the supplier.
