Bacta, the trade association which represents the amusement and gaming machine industry in the UK, has reiterated its commitment to raising standards by enabling access to the Safer Gambling Training programme through the bactaPortal.

Safer Gambling Training, developed and delivered by leading charities YGAM and Betknowmore UK, combines specialist knowledge, insight and research to raise standards in player protection. Informed by lived experience and relevant to the latest LCCP requirements, the initiative contains six programmes including key areas such as: understanding customer vulnerability; managing welfare; how to interact with customers and signposting to support services.’ The training will now be accessible via the new bactaPortal which went live in September 2021.

The bactaPortal allows gambling venues to maintain paperless records of all their customer interactions and self-exclusions, as well as hosting training modules and other valuable information. It is available to everyone, although bacta members benefit from a subsidised price.

John White, Chief Executive at bacta welcomed the announcement by saying: “YGAM and Betknowmore UK are renowned for their safer gambling training and we are proud that they have chosen to make it available via the bactaPortal. This initiative is the first of many that will make the bactaPortal indispensable to arcade businesses looking to remove paper from their operations. Not only will we populate the bactaPortal with additional training we will be providing a suite of tools from AV testing logs to crime alerts that will put the bactaPortal at the top of the must haves for the sector.”

The Safer Gambling Team will be attending the upcoming EAG conference in London to showcase their programme and talk to delegates about how they can access the training through the portal.

Ian Shanahan, Director of Business Development and Fundraising at YGAM, said: “We’re delighted with this commitment from bacta. It is encouraging to see an influential trade association support our work and I hope more sectors within the gambling industry continue to invest in our City & Guilds Assured Safer Gambling Training. All profits generated from our training are directed back into our charities to further support our social purpose.”

Frankie Graham, Chief Executive at Betknowmore UK, said: “We are delighted to see bacta support the Safer Gambling Training programme. Sector wide commitment to raising standards through training and enhanced learning is our best guard in the prevention of gambling harms.”

Since launching in April 2021, the charities have sold over 14,500 programmes. The bactaPortal training can be completed online, with each programme taking around 60-minutes to complete. The training can be easily accessed on PC, laptop, tablet or mobile at a time that suits the learner.

GG.BET has launched Popular Bets, a new platform feature that lets users place bets on ready-made combo selections in a few clicks.

The operator said the “Popular” section on the homepage highlights pre-built combinations based on popular matches and the latest markets. Once a user selects a combo, the full set of selections is automatically added to the bet slip.

According to GG.BET, the combos are generated using “enhanced recommendation algorithms” and built from markets that are popular among gg.bet users. The company said the goal is to reduce the time customers spend building selections and make the betting flow “easier and more accessible” for both experienced and newer bettors.

The update follows other recent product changes on the platform, including the launch of Bet Builder, which GG.BET said allows users to combine multiple markets within one match across both sports and esports.

As the football world prepares for its biggest stage, 22Bet Partners is warming up with a competition of its own.

In anticipation of the upcoming World Cup, the affiliate program has announced “The Winner’s League”, a limited-time campaign designed to reward new partners who bring winning traffic during the most exciting period of the football calendar.

Being a brand deeply rooted in the global sports scene, 22Bet has long aligned its identity with the energy, competition, and global passion surrounding football. The new campaign reflects that same spirit — turning affiliate performance into a league of its own.

Running from April 15 to June 15, The Winner’s League invites new affiliates to step onto the field, compete for performance-based rewards, and secure boosted revenue share conditions ahead of the football season’s peak traffic period.

For traffic owners focused on Tier-1, Tier-2 markets, the campaign offers a straightforward challenge: bring players, reach milestones, and climb the reward ladder.

How The Winner’s League Works

The promotion is available exclusively to new partners who register and meet the campaign requirements during the promotional period.

To participate, affiliates must:

Register in the 22Bet Partners affiliate program
Drive traffic from eligible Tier-1, Tier-2 regions
(For detailed GEO information, partners are encouraged to contact their affiliate managers.)
Generate verified First Time Deposits (FTDs) during the campaign period

Only traffic that complies with the program’s official rules and conditions will be considered eligible.

Bonus Levels & Rewards

The Winner’s League operates with a clear milestone structure. As partners increase their performance, their rewards grow accordingly.

100 FTDs

Exclusive Secret Football Box

The Secret Football Box will be awarded to the first 10 partners who reach the 100 FTD milestone.

Additional Campaign Rules

Each partner receives only the highest reward tier achieved.
The promotion applies to the following brands within the program:
- 22Bet
- Betlabel
All traffic must comply with the official affiliate program rules outlined in the Terms & Conditions

Playing the Long Game

For affiliates who treat performance marketing like a competitive sport, the timing of the campaign is no coincidence.

Major football tournaments historically bring some of the highest engagement levels in sports betting, and 22Bet Partners is positioning its affiliate network to capture that momentum early.

With The Winner’s League, the message is simple: the football season is approaching, the audience is warming up, and the field is open for new players.

For affiliates ready to compete, the league has already begun.
