BETER, the industry’s leading provider of next-gen betting and gaming solutions, has raised the bar further on the transparency of events for tournament organisers with a latest wave of integrity strengthening, developed by its Chief Integrity Officer, Andrii Nekrutov.

Instrumental since joining the company in 2021, Nekrutov has been key in evolving BETER’s credentials to ensure all events are conducted with the highest possible quality assurance.

Nekrutov explained: “The utmost reliability of tournaments and principles of fair play are core tenets of our business. To this end, we are constantly refining our integrity policy to ensure the safety of our community of sportspeople, employees and clients.

“We see the integration of our new procedures and systems as another layer of integrity on behalf of our operator partners – ensuring they can have absolute confidence in the transparency of all live events provided by BETER. In-house IT solutions and the chatbot ensure the safety of tournament participants and allow for confidential reporting of any suspicious activity.”

The company has developed a range of different, robust policies in accordance with the International Olympic Committee and other international sports federations for each of its popular live events programmes, the Setka Cup and ESportsBattle and a broader common integrity policy, which BETER imposes on any tournament organiser it cooperates with.

BETER has identified the main directions for implementing the company’s integrity mechanisms:

Detection of any suspicious performance behavior: An integrity operation centre ensures a consistent information exchange with partners on unfair play issues. A fraud detection service is provided to all clients with a holistic analysis of suspicious in-game events along with the use of cutting-edge tools by an in-house team 24/7.

Improvement of the integrity awareness campaign: This program includes required e-learnings, training, a whistleblowing platform and pre-employment personnel and tournament participant checks, including a thorough recruitment process and regular integrity examinations. An Ethics Committee will promote high integrity standards and collaborate with sports federations on related issues.

Development of an intelligence-led investigation: Should any suspicious behaviours be identified, these will be targeted. All integrity-related intelligence gathered will be investigated and tracked in an Integrity Incident Database in cooperation with law enforcement agencies and judicial authorities.

Compliance with sports integrity laws of each country where the tournament organiser is based: This new agenda will be constantly monitored to ensure it remains robust and fit for purpose. Regular reviews of existing regulatory environments will ensure strict alignment and compliance with international sports practices.

BETER’s comprehensive integrity policy is mandatory for all tournament organisers who partners with it.

The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has observed a pattern of websites impersonating MGA-licensed operators and misleading consumers into believing that they are licensed, regulated or otherwise authorised by the Authority in accordance with the Gaming Act (Chapter 583 of the Laws of Malta) and the regulatory instruments issued thereunder.

In light of this, the MGA published a list of three websites impersonating licensed operators. The websites are:

• www.manekicasino.bet

• www.dragonaracasino.uk.com

• www.slot-hunter.at

“The MGA is hereby declaring that it has no connection with the above listed URLs and any other website, platform and/or entity impersonating the Authority and/or MGA-licensed operators. Any reference to the MGA and/or gaming licence/s said to be issued by it, as stated on these domains, are false and misleading,” the MGA noted.

“The MGA would like to remind consumers not to utilise services provided by an entity unless they have ascertained that the entity in question is duly authorised to provide such services by the Authority. Whereas MGA-licensed operators comply with strict legal requirements in the interest of consumers, the activities of unlicensed entities are unregulated, and do not provide the necessary safeguards delineated by virtue of the gaming regulatory framework, making transactions with such entities risky for consumers.”

Supplier secures AGLC registration and extends its Canadian footprint beyond Ontario, where it has been live since 2022.

Greentube has gone live in Alberta on the day the province opened as a newly regulated iGaming market, marking the supplier’s first launch in the jurisdiction.

The NOVOMATIC Digital Gaming and Entertainment division said it completed regulatory and technical due diligence and secured registration with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) commission to operate in the province. Alberta becomes only the second Canadian province to regulate iGaming after Ontario, with the new framework replacing the monopoly previously held by Play Alberta.

The Alberta launch builds on Greentube’s existing Canadian footprint. The company has been live in Ontario since 2022 and described the Alberta debut as part of its wider North American expansion strategy.

Greentube said Alberta players will initially have access to a curated set of titles including Piggy Prizes Wand of Riches 2, Rumble Riches Haulin’ Gold and Firecracker Frenzy Money Toad, as well as Silver Lux Big Win Spinner, Starlight Jackpots Captain’s Catch and Charming Lady’s Boom.

David Bolas, Commercial Director at Greentube, said: “Going live in Alberta on the day the market opens is an important step for Greentube and reflects the strong momentum we are seeing in Canada.

“We welcome the opportunity a new jurisdiction offers and look forward to working with locally licensed operators to introduce our established offering to players in Alberta. With a balanced line-up of new releases and proven performers, we are well placed to offer a compelling experience in the province and support our long-term ambitions in the region.”
