AZ Billions Unveils New Partnership with MIRACL
AZ Billions, the globe’s first new alphabet lottery, due for launch this coming June, has today revealed an exciting new partnership with the world’s only single-step multi-factor authentication, MIRACL.
According to AZ Billions,the global online lottery market is expected to grow by 14.9% in the next five years. One reason why AZ BIllions, the world’s first letter based lottery, is launching in June 2023. As an online first game, it is imperative that the user experience is as clean and friction-free as possible, and why selecting the smoothest multi-factor authentication was imperative.
MIRACL, is the fastest, single-step, passwordless multi-factor authentication (MFA) on the market. Unlike other multi-factor authenticators it only requires one step for the user to authenticate, thus play is seamless and any loss of revenue due to clunky login alternatives is entirely reduced. With a proven login success rate of 99.9%, it makes MIRACL an ideal solution for this innovative new lottery.
In the past 12 months MIRACL has made significant headway in iGaming. Its partnership with another lottery initiative, MyLottoHub in Nigeria transformed the success of the organisation.In fact thanks to innovations with MIRACL, MyLottoHub nearly doubled its conversion rate to over 75%, and began a sustained period of exponential growth. Over six months, MyLottoHub experienced 60% growth in month-on-month traffic. Registered users continue to grow by 35% a month. Underpinning this exceptional health is an industry-leading login success rate of 99.8%, entirely thanks to MIRACL. Expectations for another successful lottery partnership remain high with AZ Billions.
CEO at XHL, Craig Austin says, “Our whole team is thrilled to be partnering with MIRACL and being able to utilise MIRACL’s single-step sign in authentication. We decided it is imperative to utilise MIRACL’s technology to enable as smoother onboarding process by facilitating an efficient UI and customer journey, which we believe can only complement our bottom line.”
Michael Tanaka, CCO at MIRACL added, “AZ Billions is an innovative lottery about to launch on a global scale, and we are very pleased to be integrating our single-step authentication into their platform from the outset. Following the success achieved by MyLottoHub, we’re confident that MIRACL’s technology will help elevate AZ Billion’s user experience, maximising the impact and profit potential of this new alphabet based lottery – all whilst meeting even the toughest security standards set by lottery regulators such as Canada’s AGCO.”
MIRACL eliminates the need for outdated security practices such as passwords, SMS Texts, push notifications and key-cards. The use of true two-factor authentication coupled with the latest Zero Knowledge Proof (ZKP) patented technology means no personal data is stored or transmitted and there are no “honey-pots” of data exposed to attack, ensuring MIRACL Trust is completely GDPR friendly too. With a simple two second login via PIN or biometric, MIRACL customers see login success rates as high as 99.996%.

Merkur Group Strengthens Global Compliance Strategy
Under the theme “Perspectives,” a total of 43 compliance staff members from the Merkur Group across various countries gathered from 30 June to 1 July to further develop compliance processes in a sustainable manner. Colleagues from Germany, Spain, England, Malta, Australia and the US traveled to the two-day meeting at Benkhausen Castle, the in-house training centre of the Merkur Group. The workshop set the stage with expert presentations on global and digital topics such as cybersecurity, risk management and artificial intelligence. A panel discussion featuring representatives from various international companies within the Merkur Group, as well as a digital quiz, rounded out the programme.
In keeping with its guiding principle, the workshop focused on sharing experiences, fostering global networking and providing impetus for the further development of compliance processes. Because informal exchanges are also key to close cooperation, the evening programme created a relaxed atmosphere and gave participants the opportunity to continue their conversations, make new connections, and further strengthen team spirit across company and national boundaries.
“The ideas and diverse perspectives gained during the workshop will now be incorporated into our day-to-day work and help us to continuously improve collaboration and existing processes,” said Ludwig Beckmann, Chief Compliance Officer of the Merkur Group.
The concluding feedback session also highlighted just how valuable the international exchange is. The term “collaboration” came up particularly often, a clear indication of how highly the participants value working closely together within the international compliance network.

GRAI Launches New Campaign Helping Parents to Spot the Signs of Underage Gambling
The Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI) is encouraging parents and guardians to be alert to the signs of gambling among young people and to intervene early to prevent gambling harm.
The signs of gambling aren’t always visible, the GRAI in partnership with the Health Service Executive Addiction Services have developed dedicated advice on www.grai.ie to equip families with the knowledge to recognise the signs, advice on how to start the conversation with their children about gambling, and where to seek help if required.
To support the guidance, the GRAI has launched a national public awareness campaign across video on demand, radio, digital audio, and social media platforms, bringing this message directly to families across Ireland.
With the lines between entertainment and gambling increasingly blurred, especially online, what may look like harmless fun can still involve risk, money and chance in ways that affect young developing brains. Research commissioned by the GRAI and conducted by the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) found that children who gamble are twice as likely to develop a gambling problem as adults.
Anne Marie Caulfield, CEO of the GRAI said: “We have launched this campaign to help parents start an important conversation about the risks of underage gambling. Children and young people are among the most at-risk members of Irish society when it comes to gambling exposure and harm. Children’s brains are still developing the judgement and impulse-control systems used to weigh up risk, which makes gambling appealing to them.
“With online gambling available at any time of the day, it is easy for the warning signs to be hidden. The guidance the GRAI developed with the HSE Addiction Services sets out some of the key behavioural signs to look out for in your child.”
