On Air Entertainment is poised to ramp up its reach in the UK after penning landmark deals with two of the market’s leading online casino operators, Betway and 32Red.

Both companies will instantly gain access OnAir’s popular premiere blackjack offering, allowing them to deliver the player-focused game to their UK players’ devices.

Having previously partnered with Super Group-owned Betway to provide its live casino product in other markets, the latest move will see OnAir roll out its premium content to Betway’s UK-facing casino, providing a range of dedicated tables and tapping into extensive market reach.

By founding the new partnership with 32Red, an award-winning online casino operator which is part of Kindred Group, the live casino studio has set about strengthening its UK presence even further.
Coming within a few of weeks of OnAir announcing its momentous expansion into the UK regulated market, the agreements emphasise the fast-growing company’s commitment to delivering competitive, quality content to customers in key regulated markets across the globe.

Since first bringing its debut blackjack release to the table in November 2021, OnAir has enhanced the offering by taking a total of four contrasting environments live, each showcasing a distinctive style.
As the studio expands and enhances its live dealer suite with classic and unique titles over the coming months, Betway and 32Red will also have the opportunity to plug in to many more live casino experiences, including its eagerly anticipated debut roulette game due out 24 February.

Anthony Werkman, CEO of Betway, says “On Air have been a fantastic provider of live casino in our  other market, so it’s great that we’re able to extend that offering to UK customers through our latest agreement with them.

“The online casino experience is important for our customers who will be able to enjoy our new premium content.”

Adam Newnham, Commercial Operations Manager at 32Red, says “We are delighted to be able to offer our players the refreshingly new live casino product from OnAir Entertainment via the Microgaming platform.

“We are extremely excited by OnAir’s new live product and we look forward to growing our portfolio of live games with them over the coming months.”

Real-money casual puzzle tournament startup says an EU private investor backed the April 2026 round.

EasyWin, a U.S.-based real-money gaming startup, said it has closed its second seed funding round at a $20 million valuation. The company announced the round in April 2026 and said it was backed by a private investor from the European Union.

The company previously closed its first seed round in December 2025 at a $15.5 million valuation. That round included funding from Velo Partners, Vladimir Nikolsky and several private angel investors.

EasyWin was founded by Ivan Leshkevich, a former executive at mobile game publisher and developer Mamboo Entertainment. The startup, which currently has a team of eight, says it has built a global tournament platform for casual puzzle games with cash prizes and operates across major markets.

Since launching in 2025, EasyWin reported 25% month-over-month growth in user spending and a 4.9 average user rating. It also said it has expanded into 12 countries with localized legal opinions and payment infrastructure, received PayPal approval for its MCC, and completed payments-stack integrations with global providers.

The company also said it has obtained GLI certification “confirming compliance with U.S. regulations for skill-based gaming products.” Leshkevich said: “In the long term, we aim to become a leading global skill-based gaming platform. To achieve this, we focus on a strong product USP and new AI-based dev tools.”

Downtown Las Vegas property says the July Super Bingo will be its largest prize purse to date, with sessions on July 4-5.

Plaza Hotel & Casino will stage a $250,000 “Super Bingo” event in Las Vegas July 3-5, positioning it as a special edition tied to the nation’s 250th anniversary. The operator said the prize pool is the largest in the series’ history.

“The Plaza will be celebrating its 55th anniversary and the 250th anniversary of our great country in July, so it is only fitting that we make our Super Bingo event that month our biggest and best ever,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Our Super Bingo events have always drawn a packed crowd to our convention space, and we anticipate the July event to sell out quickly.”

According to the Plaza, Super Bingo draws nearly 1,000 attendees, including visitors traveling from Hawaii and Canada. For the July edition, bingo-only registration is set at $250 per person for gameplay on Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5. The Plaza is also offering an optional five-night hotel package priced at $200 per person, with no resort fee, for check-in July 2 and check-out July 6.

The Plaza outlined the payout structure as 20 games paying $1,999 each day, plus a daily “super coverall” of $60,000, second place of $15,000, and third place of $10,020. The casino said prizes will be paid in cash and players must be present to win.

Outside of the special event, the Plaza said its bingo room runs six daily sessions at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 5 p.m., 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. and is located two floors above the main casino.
