Platform and aggregator Groove is supporting award-winning Cyprus-based iGaming developer Evoplay, helping to profile the newly obtained MGA Recognition Notice with Groove’s powerful operator cluster.

Evoplay has just been recognised by the prestigious Maltese regulatory body, the Malta Gaming Authority.

Groove is highlighting Evoplay content to operators to ensure that the developer, 95% of which staff are Ukraine-based, remains fully supported despite the international situation, including their 3D/VR slot games and a medley of new content.

Evoplay was shortlisted in the Best Gaming Innovation category at the SBC Awards, Software Rising Star and Mobile Supplier at the EGR Awards, three LoginCasino Awards, and last year Ivan Kravchuk, Evoplay CEO, was awarded with Leader of the Year by SBC.

The iGaming provider develops HTML5 Full HD online games with popular titles such as Dragon’s Tavern, Trip To The Future, Fruit Disco, Atlantis, The Great Conflict, Elven Princesses, Epic Gladiators, Red Cliff, Ace Round, Jewellery Store, Fruitburst, Chinese New Year, Charming Queens, Syndicate, and Candy Dreams.

Probably the best-known title of Evoplay are Dungeon: Immortal Evil, the first RPG-inspired hack and slash slot with this year’s flagship title, Star Guardians, that made the revolution as an industry-first third-person shooter gambling game with manual control and player selection. Evoplay’s total portfolio contains over 160 slots, table, and instant games.

This latest arrangement with Evoplay is a direct demonstration of how Groove’s content portfolio is highly differentiated and capable of responding to global market events. Groove’s powerful platform includes thousands of casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, sportsbook, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue.

Chief Commercial Officer at Evoplay, Vladimir Malakchi, commented: “Delivering content for Groove’s operator cluster allowed us to boost access to our games as well as their overall performance. Being with a top platform like Groove gives us a sense of sustainability and it’s good to know that we have this kind of backing.”

Groove COO Yahale Meltzer said: “Originally we welcomed Evoplay to our platform with some of the most innovative games in the global iGaming market and the awards that they have gathered in such a short space of time are definitely well deserved. The MGA Recognition Notice is the cherry on the cake for a solid suite of games coming out from the developer, and we look forward to seeing further increased uptake on their titles.”

The Bulgarian National Revenue Agency, the Specialised Administrative Directorate “Financial Intelligence” of the State Agency for National Security and branch organisations of the organisers of gambling operators will join efforts against money laundering and the financing of terrorism. This became clear during a working meeting, which took place on March 20 at the invitation of the Director General of the National Revenue Agency Rumen Spetsov, and his deputy Georgy Dimov.

The participants discussed the possibilities for the branch organisations of gambling operators to monitor the implementation of measures against money laundering and the financing of terrorism by their members. The talks also discussed changes in normative and sub-normative acts regulating the activity in the sector, which would lead to better accountability and guaranteed protection of the public interest.

During the meeting, it was decided that representatives of the National Revenue Agency would discuss with the branch gambling organisations issues related to the implementation of normative and sub-normative acts, providing guidelines for the correct fulfilment of obligations by gambling operators.

Gaming Laboratories International (GLI®) has become the first laboratory to achieve accreditation to certify for betting systems, live game studios, and online games to be used by fixed-odds lottery operators by the Secretaria De Prêmios e Apostas (SPA) in Brazil.

The accreditation means GLI is authorized to test and certify equipment, programs, instruments, and devices that comprise betting systems, live game studios, and online games to be used by fixed-odds lottery operators for the recently enacted national regulatory regime of Brazil.

“We commend the outstanding work that SPA has done in creating a regulatory framework by adapting global best practices to their jurisdiction need and thank them for the transparency and professionalism of this laboratory accreditation process,” said Karen Sierra-Hughes, GLI Vice President for Latin America, Caribbean, and Spain. “We are grateful for the trust put in our work by Brazilian operators and suppliers in the past years in their self-regulatory efforts to voluntarily adhere to compliance processes, which puts them in the position to transition effortlessly to the rise of regulations that are in development today. We have witnessed the efforts that the government and the industry had made throughout all these years to regulate different forms of gaming and lottery, and we feel fortunate to have been part of it while sharing our global expertise and putting the local focus needed in providing support customized to the Brazil culture and particularities of this unique market. We are looking forward to being part of this very exciting time in Brazil and now finally also as an official accredited laboratory for this great country.”

GLI has been working with regulators, lotteries, and industry stakeholders across the Latin American and Caribbean region for more than 26 years in their efforts towards regulation, sustainable growth, and eradicating illegal gaming. In Brazil, GLI has been side by side with government entities and all industry stakeholders for nearly 20 years, participating in public hearings in the Senate, Chamber of Deputies, and State government level, and in recent years, adding strategic local representation to strengthen their local support.

This milestone is the latest for GLI in Latin America. Last month, GLI became the first lab to achieve accreditation to test online gaming, wagering, and retail sports betting in Peru. Last year in Brazil, GLI was the first lab authorized to test and certify for the Lottery of Parana LOTTOPAR, and GLI will become accredited in all states where laboratory accreditation will be required in Brazil.
