Green Jade Games, the innovative game studio that delivers the most entertaining experience in the market via its suite of arcade games, has appointed Janis Sliede as Head of Content Creation.

He will now bring this experience and knowledge to the iGaming industry where he will handle digital media production across text, audio and visual for multiple channels and publications.

Mark Taffler, CCO at Green Jade Games, said: “I am delighted to welcome Janis to the team and for Green Jade to benefit from his incredible experience when it comes to content creation and especially for video and streaming.

“It is great to also be able to leverage the understanding and learnings he has from outside of the industry so that we can apply it to our marketing efforts moving forwards, allowing us to better communicate the incredible player experience our games have to offer.”

Janis Sliede, Head of Content Creation at Green Jade Games, added: “I am thrilled to be a part of the Green Jade team and to be a new face in the iGaming industry.

“One of my main goals is to create a brand message and make sure that our story, through content, is being told in the best and most engaging way possible.

“Customers want to buy, support and align themselves with brands that are authentic, and it is my job to bring that authenticity to Green Jade’s content and marketing. It is a challenge I am looking forward to taking on.”

Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.

The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.

The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.

Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.

“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.

“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”

Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
