Livespins names Marko Erakovic as Sales Director
Former Bragg and Oryx commercial lead joins live streaming provider to drive growth
Livespins, the social, live-streaming product that allows players to bet behind their favourite streamer, has bolstered its commercial team with the appointment of Marko Erakovic as Sales Director. The appointment comes as Livespins continues to sign operator partnerships at scale and pace.
Marko brings an extensive 20 years-worth of experience in business development and has a proven track record of cultivating relationships, establishing partnerships, and managing international teams across various industries. His expertise will be invaluable to Livespins as it continues to forge operator partnerships and expand its global presence.
As Sales Director at Livespins, Marko has been tasked with shaping the future of the business, including growing and solidifying its position as the original and undisputed leader in the new igaming vertical that it has forged. This includes fostering strong partnerships that will allow Livespins to establish long-lasting relationships with operators, providers, and streamers, and to engage and captivate new audiences.
Livespins provides an online casino experience like no other. It sits within the online casino lobby, allowing players to watch streamers and bet behind the action taking place across the reels. This creates a group bet and shared player experience, with plenty of social interaction with players able to chat with the streamer and each other throughout.
That Livespins sits within the online casino lobby means that players are offered all of the protections the operator is required to provide under its international and local licences. This in turn allows operators to leverage the tremendous demand for streaming content, while ensuring compliance.
Michael Pedersen, Chief Commercial Officer at Livespins, said: “Marko is a fantastic hire and brings experience, a network of connections and passion to the team and the wider Livespins business. He is an absolute professional with a clear understanding of the market and what operators need when it comes to content that will allow them to engage lucrative but hard-to-reach player audiences.
“I am delighted to welcome him to the team and to work closely with him as momentum continues to build behind Livespins and we join forces with more forward-thinking operators, suppliers and steamers across the globe.”
Marko Erakovic, Sales Director at Livespins, added: “I am thrilled to join the remarkable and talented Livespins team and to embark on the next exciting chapter of my career. Livespins has redefined the concept of live entertainment within the online gambling industry, and I’m eager to bring my passion for identifying new opportunities that will turbo-charge growth and enhance our presence in the market.”

PG Soft releases Funky Fortunez slot with Prize symbol upgrades
New 4×4 slot includes free spins, locked positions and a stated max win of 2,000x the initial bet.
PG Soft has released a new slot, Funky Fortunez, adding another title to its mobile-focused catalogue.
The game uses a 4×4 symbols combination format and includes Prize symbols that the studio says can carry wins of up to 500x the bet amount per symbol, with a stated maximum win of 2,000x the initial bet.
PG Soft said the Prize Symbol mechanic is built around symbol position activation: winning symbols activate their positions, the first activation marks the position, and the second converts it into a Prize symbol. When no further winning combinations remain, each Prize symbol pays a prize ranging from 0.2x to 8x.
Before a Prize symbol pays, it can be upgraded to a Gold Prize symbol (10x to 50x) or a Platinum Prize symbol (100x to 500x), according to the company.
The slot also includes a Free Spins Feature. PG Soft said three Scatter symbols trigger 10 free spins, with each additional Scatter awarding two more. During free spins, any marked positions and Prize symbols remain locked for the duration of the feature, with the Prize Upgrade Feature able to trigger on every winning free spin. Free spins can be retriggered.
PG Soft’s spokesperson commented: “Funky Fortunez is a celebration of the hip-hop genre, which we expect to dominate the charts for a long time. The Prize Symbol mechanic is the beat that drives the game, as players look for big returns of up to 500x per symbol, with a maximum win of 2,000x the initial bet.”
