Reading Time: 2 minutes
Betegy, the leading sports data and content specialist, has announced the appointment of marketing veteran Eugenie Golovina as Chief Marketing Officer.
As newly appointed CMO of Betegy, Golovina will focus on spearheading the company’s continued outstanding growth across the US and Europe as a truly unique technology supplier for fan engagement.
Betegy’s latest hire reflects the company’s continued commercial success, with Betegy’s leading marketing solutions already deployed in the US with ShotTracker, World Series of Poker, PokerGo and EsportsTV.
With an extensive marketing career spanning more than a decade across multiple verticals, Eugenie has worked with global companies including Jaguar Land Rover, Turkish Airlines, and Phillip Morris International, bringing a wealth of experience to her position.
Previously Golovina served as JKR Investment Group’s Director of Global Comms, an investment fund geared towards the IT, EdTech, logistics, and tech entertainment industries. As part of her role at JKR she also oversaw the positioning of the fund’s portfolio companies and will continue her partnership with the company as a consultant.
In her new role, Betegy plans to continue to scale its product further across the globe, with a particular focus on continued expansion through broadcast, casino and fantasy sports in the US – where Betegy already powers content and engagement for Yahoo Sports and ESPN.
Commenting on her appointment, Alex Kornilov, CEO at Betegy said: “We are always looking to add innovative, ambitious people to the Betegy team and Eugenie ticks all the boxes for us. We’ve collaborated closely in the past and we’re delighted to welcome her to the company.
“It is a period of significant upscale for us, and we will always have space for hard-working, forward-thinking employees. We look forward to a number of exciting announcements in the near future and continuing our upwards trajectory.”
Eugenie Golovina, CMO at Betegy added: “I’ve been working alongside Betegy as a consultant on the side of JKR Investment Group for over a year now and I’m very much impressed by the team and the product itself. I am also inspired to see JKR promoting their employees to the new exciting positions within their portfolio.
“As a true disruptor in the industry, Betegy is an incredibly ambitious brand, and I feel privileged to be a part of the continuing growth of the company.
“There are many exciting milestones hit together in the months coming and lots to look forward to in the roadmap.”
Already proven as the industry’s most advanced AI-powered marketing technology platform, Betegy has established itself as a true industry innovator, enabling operators and broadcasters to create national and international live banner campaigns with as little as one click.
Having first made a name for itself in sports betting with the likes of Parimatch, Tipico and Sportsbet.io, as well as winning the 2021 EGR B2B Award for Innovation, the company now has ambitious plans for further expanding across the US, with plans to be announced in the near future.

New partnership will drive revenue and monetisation across Paf’s gaming ecosystem through bespoke side-bet mechanic
Nordic-based gaming operator Paf has partnered with ThrillTech, the specialist B2B provider of licensed, player-funded jackpot mechanics, to launch its innovative side-bet jackpot products across Paf’s gaming portfolio.
The integration will see ThrillPots™ deployed across key verticals, enabling Paf to deliver engaging, compliance-led jackpot experiences designed to increase session value, drive incremental GGR and boost monetisation—without disrupting existing revenue streams.
Unlike traditional jackpots, ThrillTech’s products are fully licensed and funded directly by players via opt-in side bets, giving operators access to new revenue opportunities while maintaining regulatory standards. The rollout was achieved through a seamless technical integration and will be made available across multiple markets, including Finland, Sweden and Estonia.
“This partnership with Paf is a milestone moment for ThrillTech,” said Faye Williams, Head of Business Development at ThrillTech. “Paf is one of the most respected operators in the Nordics and their focus on social responsibility makes them an ideal partner for our licensed jackpot ecosystem. We’re thrilled to bring our customisable side-bet jackpots to their players.”
ThrillTech’s flagship jackpot products serve complementary purposes: For example, ThrillPots™ drives incremental monetisation through pooled side-bet mechanics, while ThrillDrops™ delivers real-time, rule-based rewards that enhance engagement.
Kim Johansson, Chief Gaming Officer of Paf, added: “ThrillTech’s jackpot mechanics offer a fresh and modern take on how to create value for both players and operators. We’re excited to be able to offer this concept to our players and to further explore the possibilities of bespoke jackpot campaigns.”
Founded in 1966, Paf is a licensed operator known for its commitment to responsible gaming, community reinvestment, and innovation in regulated markets.
The addition of ThrillTech’s jackpots further enhances Paf’s platform with tools that support sustainable growth and player-friendly features.

AGA Launches “Play Smart from the Start” Consumer Hub to Help Players Game Responsibly
The American Gaming Association (AGA) announced the launch of the Play Smart Consumer Hub, a new online resource designed to help consumers game responsibly. The hub builds on AGA’s Play Smart from the Start, a messaging platform that encourages players to make informed choices and develop habits that keep gaming fun.
“The AGA is committed to making responsible gaming a seamless part of the player experience. Part of the fun of gaming is that everyone plays differently, but no matter how or where you play, staying in control starts with habits that work for you. The Play Smart Consumer Hub provides players with straightforward, actionable tools to help them stay in control and keep gaming fun,” said Bill Miller, president and CEO of the AGA.
Grounded in player research, Play Smart from the Start centers around three key principles:
• Right State of Mind: Start every game with the right mindset—stay present, know your limits, and play on your terms.
• Know the Game: Understand the rules, odds, and bet with intention.
• Act Intentionally: Set a budget, take breaks, and stay aware, win or lose.
The Play Smart Consumer Hub offers practical tools, including:
• A Pre-Play Checklist to help players assess their mindset and set personal limits before betting.
• A Know the Game section that demystifies odds, house advantage, and common sports betting terms.
• A Responsible Gaming IQ Quiz that allows players to evaluate their gaming habits.
• Easy access to support resources like the National Problem Gambling Helpline (1-800-GAMBLER) and state self-exclusion options.
In addition to the consumer tools, the platform also features an Industry Toolkit, providing operators and other stakeholders with resources, including messaging guidance, creative assets, customer communications and activation ideas to support the integration of consistent, responsible gaming programs.
“Whether an operator or supplier is building a new responsible gaming program or looking to refresh existing efforts, this toolkit makes it easy to deliver consistent, player-first messaging across every customer touchpoint,” Miller said.
The Play Smart Consumer Hub is now live at playsmartfromthestart.org.
