MiFinity, the iGaming payment services company, celebrated a milestone in November as it passed 500 merchant branding integrations. With a rock-solid pipeline of merchants in integration, it will not be long before the 1,000 milestone is reached, with MiFinity continuing to expand its market share.

MiFinity is easily one of the fastest-growing payment services in the iGaming space, with the likes of Betsson , GGPoker and iBet in its rapidly expanding merchant base. With innovative products, including the MiFinity eVoucher available in 225 countries and territories, and core products such as the MiFinity eWallet and PayAnyBank servicing 82 Countries, operators are queuing up to integrate MiFinity as quickly as possible and keep up with player demands.

MiFinity CEO Paul Kavanagh said, “Our accelerated growth has been a massive team effort. Our tech and product teams have developed a portfolio of services that is second to none and have operators banging on the door, wanting to integrate MiFinity. Our customer care team go above and beyond to help players get the most out of our services, which in turn helps our merchants. Our affiliate, marketing, and commercial teams have a huge amount of market experience and are focused on supporting our merchants’ strategic goals, helping them increase conversions, revenue, and brand loyalty. And, of course, everyone else behind the scenes at MiFinity is committed to driving our success. 500 merchants and counting are all down to our incredible team.”

One of the reasons thousands of players are creating MiFinity eWallets EVERY DAY is the company’s low-cost fee approach and hugely flexible account structure. Players can hold up to nine native currencies in a single eWallet account, providing true consumer choice. MiFinity also boasts over 75 integrated payment methods and 17 currencies, in 20 languages, all accelerating demand from players to use their MiFinity eWallet on their favourite iGaming sites.

Kris Deyanov, Head of Business Development, commented: “MiFinity is in the enviable position of having iGaming customers asking operators to integrate our services into their cashiers so they can use the MiFinity eWallet. Forward-thinking, customer-centric operators understand that payment options are a significant and crucial part of the customer experience and that the right partners can help boost customer acquisition, retention and increase engagement. It’s not just about delivering frictionless and speedy transactions; it’s also about all the added value a payment services provider like MiFinity offers.”

MiFinity provides players with the most innovative and intuitive user experience available in the market. Its soon to be released, best-in-class native app and desktop version underpin its commitment to players. This best-in-class approach becomes an extension of the iGaming experience when MiFinity is integrated into the merchant’s cashier via the iFrame. MiFinity further supports its merchants with the industry’s most competitive affiliate programme, bespoke marketing campaigns, and in-app promotions.

500 and counting, is a lot for MiFinity to celebrate!

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29^th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
