Richard Walker joins the fast-growing company as Head of Live Casino as it continues to establish itself as a tier one provider of online gambling content

Stakelogic Live, the provider of premium live dealer content, has strengthened its senior management team with the appointment of industry heavyweight Richard Walker as Head of Live Casino.

Walker is a live dealer veteran having held roles at both operators and suppliers including stints at Evolution Gaming, Rank Group, Caesars Entertainment and Pragmatic Play. Most recently he has been working as a consultant to a number of high-profile gambling organisations.

As Head of Live Casino at Stakelogic Live, Walker has been tasked with using his 25+ years of industry experience and knowledge to team up with Stakelogic Live’s Head of Studios, Anthony Sammut, and Head of Operations, Sanita Gabriel, to together take responsibility for operations, studios, product and commercial. This includes supporting the build of dedicated and network studio tables for multiple markets.

He will also oversee the roll-out of Stakelogic Live with a growing number of operator partners and in particular in the Netherlands where the provider has gained significant traction since the market opened its doors to legal, regulated online gambling.

Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO at Stakelogic, said: “I am thrilled to welcome Richard to the team and for Stakelogic Live to benefit from his unrivalled experience and knowledge.

Stakelogic Live has achieved a great deal in a short space of time but under Richard’s leadership we will undoubtedly be able to hit our goal of becoming the number one provider of live casino content in markets across Europe and beyond.

I have been particularly impressed with Richard’s passion and dedication, and looking forward to working with him closely over the coming months and years.”

Richard Walker, Head of Live Casino at Stakelogic Live, added: “I’m delighted to have joined a company with significant desire to grow and disrupt the live casino vertical. Stakelogic Live maybe the new kid on the block but we are aiming to be amongst the best in the business.

“There is a fantastic team already in place here and it was an easy decision to join Stakelogic Live to continue the excellent progression already made along with driving the business forward and into the future.”

S8UL gaming creator and streamer Payal Dhare has partnered with OWND!, the Gen Z-focused fashion brand from Aditya Birla Fashion and Retail Limited, to launch a gaming-inspired fashion capsule called ‘Gamer Drop’. The companies describe it as India’s first female gamer-curated capsule. The collection will be available on OWND!’s website and in the brand’s stores across India.

According to the press release, ‘Gamer Drop’ includes menswear and womenswear pieces built around gaming culture and streetwear, positioned as a creator-led collection rather than conventional creator merchandise. The campaign leans on the growing overlap between gaming culture, creator communities, and youth fashion.

Marco Agnolin, Chief Executive Officer, OWND!. said, “We see gaming today as a powerful cultural force that is shaping how young consumers express themselves, communicate, and engage with fashion. As one of India’s biggest gamers, Payal Dhare represents this new generation perfectly through her authenticity, confidence, and deep connection with the gaming community. Her influence extends far beyond gaming content, making her an ideal face for our gaming collection. Through this collaboration, we aim to celebrate individuality and connect with India’s digitally native youth in a way that feels relevant, inclusive, and culture-driven.”

Payal Dhare aka Payal Gaming said, “Gaming today has become a culture and a form of self-expression for millions of young people across the country. That’s what makes this collaboration with OWND! so exciting for me. With this curation, I wanted to create something that genuinely reflects my vibe and the energy of my community. It’s stylish, comfortable, expressive – and made for people who want to own who they are.”

The release also points to India’s expanding creator economy. Citing a Boston Consulting Group report, it says India has nearly 2 to 2.5 million creators, with more than 60% of consumers exposed to creator-led content and over 30% of shoppers influenced by creators in purchase decisions.

BETBY, the leading B2B sportsbook supplier, has announced a new strategic partnership with Vibra Gaming. The agreement will see BETBY deliver its full sportsbook solution to Vibra Gaming, further accelerating its expansion across the LatAm region.

Through this collaboration, Vibra Gaming will integrate BETBY’s complete sportsbook offering covering more than 500,000 monthly events, including its advanced AI-powered tools, AI Labs, and proprietary esports feed, Betby.Games. Delivered via a single, seamless API integration, the solution enables Vibra Gaming to incorporate a fully scalable sportsbook directly into its platform, allowing its operator partners to roll out sports betting efficiently while reducing technical complexity and accelerating time-to-market.

The integration addresses key challenges associated with launching a sportsbook, particularly the technical demands and resource requirements involved. By leveraging BETBY’s solution, Vibra Gaming can extend its platform capabilities without adding significant development overhead, while enabling its partners to introduce sports betting as part of a broader, multi-vertical offering.

A key component of the agreement is the inclusion of Betby.Games, BETBY’s award-winning esports feed, which aligns closely with Vibra Gaming’s localized approach. The portfolio features hyper-localized, industry-first titles such as eVaquejada and eFootVolley, designed specifically to resonate with Latin American audiences, further strengthening engagement across the region.

The partnership comes as BETBY continues to reinforce its position in Latin America, a strategic market where the provider has been actively investing and expanding its footprint. With operational licenses in Brazil and Peru, and a growing network of regional partners, this collaboration marks an important step in BETBY’s long-term growth strategy across LatAm.

Stefanos Karakidis, Business Development Director at BETBY, said: “This partnership is a natural fit for both sides. Vibra Gaming has built a platform that reflects the expectations of Latin American operators, and that creates the ideal environment for our sportsbook to deliver value. Besides that, what makes this collaboration particularly strong is how seamlessly our solution integrates into Vibra’s ecosystem, enabling their casino operator partners to expand into sports betting in a fast, efficient, and scalable way.”

Werter Luna, CEO at Vibra Gaming, said: “At Vibra Gaming, our priority is to provide our partners with flexible, locally relevant solutions that help them grow. Integrating BETBY’s sportsbook allows us to expand our platform with a best-in-class sports betting offering that matches our standards in terms of performance and adaptability. We’re particularly excited about the potential of combining their technology and esports content with our localized approach to further enhance the player experience across Latin America.”

Betr, the company behind the world’s first real money gaming super app, announced it has acquired Ascent Capital Management Inc., securing National Futures Association (NFA) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) registration to advance the launch of prediction markets within the Betr super app.

Through the acquisition, Betr becomes a CFTC-registered introducing broker, representing a major milestone in the company’s continued expansion into regulated prediction markets. The transaction allows Betr to accelerate the company’s plans to launch prediction markets powered by Polymarket directly within the Betr super app.

Beginning later this year, Betr plans to make event contracts across sports, politics, culture, and more available to its over one million nationwide paying users through the same seamless experience as Picks, Sportsbook, Casino, and Arcade, all integrated within one wallet and one app.

“Prediction markets represent one of the most exciting evolutions in interactive entertainment and financial technology. Since starting Betr, we have built our business entirely around serving the modern sports fan at scale. This acquisition is another step toward our vision of creating the first true nationwide real-money gaming app. By securing IB registration through the acquisition of an established broker, we can now focus entirely on launching a seamless, compliant prediction markets experience powered by Polymarket. Our users will soon be able to engage with Picks, Sportsbook, Casino, Arcade, and Predictions all within a single integrated ecosystem,” said Joey Levy, Founder and CEO of Betr.

Ascent Capital Management Inc. has been registered as an introducing broker since 2011 and brings established compliance infrastructure that will support Betr’s expansion into the rapidly growing prediction markets category while maintaining strong standards around regulatory compliance and user protection.
