Intelitics strengthens relationship with GiG in industry first

Leading performance marketing and analytics platform, Intelitics, integrates GiG’s Data Broker for real-time data services
Intelitics has become the first User Acquisition and Affiliate platform in the iGaming space to integrate the Data Broker from industry powerhouse, GiG. This integration will allow GiG clients to integrate seamlessly with Intelitics, giving iGaming operators real-time access to all data.
The GiG Data Broker will provide an event-driven, real-time stream of data points directly into the Intelitics back end, removing the need for daily uploads of data or time-consuming database querying. The robust event hub also guarantees consistent data, improving the operators’ or the affiliate programs’ holistic view of the business performance.
Operators, affiliates, and paid media teams now demand real-time access to data to make informed decisions on marketing spend, and this type of integration shows both Intelitics and GiG’s commitment to playing a vital role in achieving sustained scale.
Allan Petrilli, VP of Sales and Growth at Intelitics said: “We are very excited to further our existing integration with GiG and continuing to strengthen our relationships with platforms that share the same vision of the importance of real-time data!”
“We’re proud to be the first user-acquisition tracking platform to integrate the GiG Data Broker, and we’re sure it will lead to more secure and seamless integrations, as well as giving our customers fully, real-time access to all the data points they need. “
Martin Collins, Director of Sales & Business Development at GiG, added: “With Intelitics becoming the first affiliate platform provider on our Marketplace to integrate to the GiG Data Broker, our partners can now draw leverage from the real-time data flow advantage that it offers. We’re indelibly linked to the innovation and ingenuity of our solutions, so it’s a continued source of pride to be able to keep pushing new ground.”

Construction of Japan’s First Integrated Resort with a Casino Begins

Construction has officially begun on Japan’s first integrated resort with a casino, as MGM Osaka held its groundbreaking ceremony last week. The event, hosted by Osaka IR KK, the project’s promoter, was attended by Osaka Governor Hirofumi Yoshimura and representatives of MGM Resorts International and Japan’s Orix Corporation, the lead partners behind the ¥1.27 trillion ($8.8 billion) development.
Located on the man-made island of Yumeshima in Osaka Bay, MGM Osaka is scheduled to open in the autumn of 2030. The project marks a key milestone in Japan’s long-debated foray into legalised casino gaming. Once operational, it is expected to generate around $5.9 billion annually in gross gaming revenue.
MGM Osaka will feature a casino, three hotels with approximately 2500 rooms, and extensive convention and entertainment facilities, including a 3500-seat theater, 330,000 square feet of exhibition space and 400,000 square feet of conference areas. Dining and retail outlets are also part of the expansive master plan.
“In collaboration with Osaka Prefecture and Osaka City, this project… is expected to contribute to the development of Japan’s tourism industry and the growth of the Kansai region,” a press statement reads.
The complex’s timeline coincides with the tail end of Expo 2025, also hosted on Yumeshima Island. To minimise disruption during the event, construction will be scaled down on peak days and the use of heavy machinery delayed until after the Expo concludes in October.
The resort will benefit from enhanced transportation access. A new Osaka Metro station opened in January to serve Expo 2025 and eventually MGM Osaka, while the Kintetsu Nara Line is being extended to further improve connectivity before the resort opens.
Financially, the project is backed by a ¥530 billion ($3.68 billion) debt financing package led by Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp., with investments from regional businesses in Osaka.
