iGB Live! Masterclass: Insights for Experts in iGaming
Answering the thirst for in-depth expert industry insight, organisers of iGB Live (5-8 July, Amsterdam RAI) have confirmed the addition of two new free-to-attend Masterclasses, each limited to just 30 attendees. The Masterclasses delve into a single subject at a level never-before offered at a conference.
Justin Deaville, who has worked with many of the UK’s leading brands, including Aviva, PaddyPower, Ladbrokes, SkyBet, the Financial Services Forum and the Foreign Office will lead the Advanced SEO Masterclass – an interactive workshop and discussion analysing changes and opportunities from Google’s May core update, and focusing on taking advantage of Google Features to outrank the competition. His masterclass is for advanced SEOs, and requires delegates to already have a solid understanding of the SEO basics. Besides exploring ways to advance in the SERPs, the Masterclass will also look to maximise efficiency as an SEO.
The second Masterclass will be led by Eric Frank of Odds On Compliance. As the former Group Compliance Officer for The Stars Group, Eric managed global compliance teams and served as the principal legal advisor for regulatory, licensing and compliance matters in the United States, Latin America and Asia. His Masterclass, ‘Demystifying the USA affiliate license’ is a 3-hour, step-by-step workshop demonstrating to small and medium sized affiliates how to cost-effectively make and win an affiliate application in the United States. It will walk delegates through the process of obtaining the requisite licensure in the United States to operate as an affiliate, and will show through state-by-state examination, cost benefit analysis, and walking through a demonstration application, that businesses from Europe and beyond can become active in the booming US gaming and betting market.
Curated by Clarion Gaming Chairman and 25-year industry veteran Michael Caselli, the iGB Masterclass format answers a need for in-depth analysis and problem solving. He explained: “iGB Masterclasses are in-depth lectures, made to small groups of attendees who are interested in learning everything they can about a key topic or how to solve a specific problem. Masterclasses are very specialized and niche, and it is precisely that which makes them so valuable for our attendees that are already experts in their fields. There is nowhere else in our industry where experts can gather, learn, examine and discuss their topics at such a level. I believe that it is our duty to continue to deliver content that provides insight and value to our most loyal and expert guests.
“We have chosen Advanced SEO and USA Affiliate Licensure for two very different reasons. Advanced SEO was an obvious necessity as iGB Live! attracts some of the best SEOs in the world. We needed something that went way beyond the basics to service these incredible experts.
“USA Affiliate Licensure was chosen because it is a subject that even expert affiliates find cryptic and laden with misunderstanding. Most affiliates wouldn’t believe that they could become an Authorised affiliate in New York for less than a $1,000 investment, in this Masterclass we will show you that you can. Attendees will see that becoming a legal affiliate in the United States is within their budget and in their interest.
“Being able to work with experts such as Justin Deaville and Eric Frank for months to create the highest level content we have ever organized has been an education in itself. Anyone attending either Masterclass will leave impressed, once again, with what they can learn at an iGB conference!”
The Advanced SEO Seminar, is being held on 6th July (13.30 – 17.30)
Demystifying the USA affiliate license, is being held on 7th July (13.30 – 17.30).

Gmonitor llega a Latinoamérica: la plataforma de inteligencia de mercado para operadores debuta en seis mercados regulados
Gmonitor amplía su cobertura a Brasil, México, Colombia, Panamá, Perú y Argentina tras su participación en SBC Summit Americas
Gmonitor.ai, la plataforma de inteligencia de mercado para el sector del juego online, anuncia su lanzamiento oficial en los mercados regulados de Latinoamérica. La compañía pone a disposición de los operadores su plataforma en Brasil, México, Colombia, Panamá, Perú y Argentina, llevando a la región la misma inteligencia diaria de mercado, juegos, promociones y competencia que ya utilizan operadores de primer nivel en Europa.
El anuncio se produce tras la participación de Gmonitor en SBC Summit Americas, celebrada en Fort Lauderdale entre el 9 y el 11 de junio, donde la compañía presentó su plataforma a operadores, proveedores y reguladores de toda la región y confirmó el fuerte interés del mercado por herramientas de inteligencia competitiva accionables.
Gmonitor monitoriza a diario los lobbies de los operadores con licencia, sigue la posición y el rendimiento de cada juego, mapea el panorama promocional y consolida datos de mercado en un único panel. El resultado permite a los equipos de marketing, marca, producto, trading y contenido sustituir miles de horas de seguimiento manual por información lista para la toma de decisiones: qué juegos crecen, cómo se mueven los competidores y dónde están las oportunidades de captación y retención.
Latinoamérica es una de las regiones de mayor crecimiento del juego regulado del mundo, pero los operadores siguen tomando decisiones con una visibilidad limitada de lo que ocurre a su alrededor. Llevamos a la región una plataforma ya probada con operadores líderes en Europa.” Hákon Magnússon, COO de Gmonitor
Con cobertura inicial en seis mercados, Gmonitor da servicio tanto a operadores que buscan defender y ganar cuota como a proveedores de juegos que necesitan entender su distribución y posicionamiento frente a la competencia. La compañía tiene previsto seguir ampliando su cobertura a Estados Unidos en las próximas semanas.

André Boesing General Manager for South LatAm at OKTO PAYMENTS
OKTO says Argentina’s provincial rules complicate iGaming payments and operations
The payments provider points to fragmented licensing and local requirements as operators expand across Argentine jurisdictions in 2026.
OKTO PAYMENTS said the rapid expansion of iGaming across Argentina’s provinces is increasing operational complexity for operators, as each jurisdiction brings distinct regulatory requirements, licensing processes and local commercial dynamics. The company shared its view in a June 2026 statement focused on the country’s multi-jurisdiction framework.
Unlike other Latin American markets with a single national model, Argentina’s provincial approach forces operators to adapt to multiple regulatory environments within one country, OKTO said. The company argued that as the market matures, expectations around transparency, traceability and operational control are also rising.
“For years, growth was the industry’s primary objective. Today, the challenge lies in how to scale efficiently in a market where each jurisdiction may present different requirements, expectations, and operational dynamics,” said André Boesing, General Manager for South LatAm at OKTO PAYMENTS.
Boesing added that consumer expectations for consistent user experience can mask the complexity behind the scenes. “Users expect a simple and seamless experience regardless of where they play. But behind that experience lies increasing operational complexity that operators must manage efficiently as they expand into different jurisdictions,” he added.
OKTO said capabilities such as orchestrating deposits and withdrawals, treasury and liquidity management, and efficient settlement processes are becoming more important as operators work with multiple providers and payment methods across provinces. “In many cases, infrastructure goes unnoticed until something goes wrong. However, in highly fragmented markets like Argentina, the ability to manage multiple providers, maintain operational consistency, and adapt quickly to local requirements can become a competitive advantage in itself. At OKTO PAYMENTS, we call this ‘playing a different game’: competing not only through products and services, but also through operational resilience and adaptability,” he explained.
The company concluded that long-term success in Argentina will depend on balancing growth with operational control and adaptability. “The operators best positioned for long-term success will be those capable of combining growth, operational control, and adaptability. Financial infrastructure is no longer simply a technological support layer; it is becoming a strategic advantage in increasingly sophisticated markets,” Boesing concluded.
