Danielle moves into new role as part of exciting expansion plans

Gaming Corps is pleased to confirm Danielle Calafato will be stepping up into the position of Chief Commercial Officer, as part of the must-have developer’s strategy to capitalize on recent successes and accelerate its growth plans.

Danielle joined the company as Head of Commercial in 2021 on the back of a wealth of gaming industry experience, and the new role will afford her the opportunity to plan for Gaming Corps’ future expansion, as well remaining a cornerstone of a young company in an active growth phase.

Gaming Corps will be laying the foundations for growth by building a commercial hub in Malta. The hub will provide staff in Malta with a formal place of work, and give Gaming Corps the tools to cement its position as a tier one games provider.

The development plans are being put into place with Gaming Corps looking to build on a remarkable period of success. The company recently announced year-on-year net sales growth of 628% for Q4 2022, being partnered with more than 400 operator brands, with another 400 signed and set to go live.

Danielle said: “It has been an absolute pleasure to be part of the Gaming Corps team, and I am honoured to be appointed as the Chief Commercial Officer. The company has achieved impressive feats in a relatively brief timeframe, and I am excited to be given the chance to build upon this success. We have big plans in the pipeline, and I am confident that with the talent and expertise of our team, we will achieve even greater heights.”

As part of the company’s roadmap for future success, Mats Lundin will remain very much involved in the commercial side of the business as he moves to the role of Director of Sales.

“I couldn’t be prouder and happier with what my team and I have been able to achieve in the three years I have worked for Gaming Corps so far. As we continue to expand, we will look to strengthen the company with feet on the ground in the markets that are allowing us to meet our ambitious goals at the optimal rate. We’ve seen a great deal of change and as what is still a young company, we’re very accomplished at adapting with great success.

“My responsibilities will now center more towards “new business” where I feel at this stage I can add the greatest value. As with everyone within the Gaming Corps family, both Danielle and I will still be working very closely and aiding the company in our new roles with new excitement and 100% focus.

Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.

The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.

The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.

Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.

“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.

“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”

Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
