OCR Labs Global, a world leader in digital ID verification, has appointed Fiona Davies as Head of Gaming to lead their strategy of focusing on improving the verification experience and fraud prevention in this vertical. Davies joins with over 15 years of experience across startups through leading commercial teams in large corporations and over seven years of extensive knowledge of the Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Identity Verification (IDV) landscape.

OCR Labs Global solves major challenges, including identity fraud and regulatory compliance, using its proprietary technology. With unrivaled identity document coverage and industry leading biometric technology there is a huge opportunity to improve onboarding in the gambling industry.

During her time at Acuris Risk Intelligence, Davies was responsible for the Gambling and Sales divisions, where she gained extensive knowledge of the landscape surrounding regulated markets and insights into making these processes more efficient. Before this role, she spent 10 years as Commercial Director for global B2B events, driving launch events at the EMAP in South America and supporting high-growth tech companies such as Google and Intel to win commercial traction in emerging markets.

Fiona Davies, newly appointed Head of Gaming for OCR Labs Global, comments: “My first introduction to Gambling was at ICE, where I was instantly fascinated by this high-growth vertical and its complexity from a regulatory standpoint. I am passionate about working with clients and offering them real solutions that will add value across the board.

Davies continued, “I am excited to build out the Gambling division at OCR Labs Global offering operators products that underpin this strict regulatory environment whilst not impinging on user experience. With such a stand-out product offering, joining them was an easy decision to make. I plan to be a real evangelist and work with operators, platforms and partners to introduce improvements that make a real difference to the verification experience, the bottom line and fraud prevention.”

“With a 100 percent automated product that helps onboard players faster and at the same time stops fraud, I know it is the right time to get passionate about making real improvements in the Gambling industry.”

Russ Cohn, General Manager International for OCR Labs Global, added, “OCR Labs Global is committed to bringing our technology to Gambling operators and their users worldwide. We are a real force multiplier for the industry, with our fully automated and user friendly and reliable ID verification process dramatically speeding up user onboarding. We welcome Fiona’s industry experience and ability to leverage our solution and elevate our efforts in Gambling. We are confident that her expertise will support global operators to take advantage of this excellent growth opportunity.”

Turning attention to Wazdan’s industry-renowned network promotions, those in Rome will also benefit from invaluable insight into the upcoming multi-stage €6,000,000 Network Promotion, which has been built to secure long-term player retention rates during the busy festive period.

Beyond the product showcasing and prize giveaways, Wazdan views the summit as a key opportunity to strengthen regional partnerships and deepen its engagement with Italy’s thriving iGaming sector.

The event’s prominence on the global industry calendar makes it a natural fit for Wazdan’s ambitions to lead the way in compelling slot innovation and partner-focused growth.

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming is set to deliver twice the thrills this Halloween with the release of two new seasonal titles, Tarot Treasures and Tricky Treats.

Both games highlight the recent launch of Push Gaming’s new product segmentation. Push Action delivers titles with enhanced layers of mechanics and player interaction, a category which Tarot Treasures proudly joins.

Meanwhile, Push Originals showcase the studio’s signature creative approach and innovative spirit, with Tricky Treats leading the way in this fresh line-up.

Tarot Treasures shuffles its diabolical deck in a spellbinding world where mysticism meets the proven success of the Push Ways mechanic.

Following the acclaim of Big Bite Push Ways, the feature receives a supernatural twist just in time for Halloween.

The introduction of cascade trails adds a fresh layer of gameplay, with enhanced dynamics during free spins. Players will also discover how hot zones and cascade trails combine to create electrifying experiences that offer both variety and excitement.

A week later, on October 22nd, Tricky Treats takes Halloween to the sweeter side, offering players a colourful cast of candy characters and a unique cluster wins mechanic.

Its innovative sticky wilds increase their multiplier with every win, while features such as Push Bet, which guarantees wilds, and the bonus buy option allow players to tailor their strategies to their own play style.

Added layers of thrill come from instant prize multiplier symbols and wild multiplier symbols, which boost all wilds and prizes on screen for explosive payout potential.

George Fil, Director of Product Strategy at Push Gaming, said: “With Halloween on the horizon, we wanted to give players two very different—but equally exhilarating—seasonal experiences. Tarot Treasures takes the Push Ways mechanic in a supernatural direction.

Tricky Treats, on the other hand, leans into the fun of the season with brilliantly designed candy characters and cluster wins that keep the action flowing.

“Together, both releases show how we’re pushing variety and innovation across themes, mechanics and volatility to deliver Halloween content players will love.”
