Betsson and Sliema Wanderers FC have signed a memorandum of understanding outlining their intention to establish a landmark long-term partnership, reinforcing Betsson’s long-standing contribution to Maltese sport and the local community.

Under the proposed partnership, Betsson is expected to become Sliema Wanderers’ front-of-shirt sponsor and will support the club’s continued investment in its sporting operations and facilities. The parties will now work towards finalising the full partnership agreement.

The partnership would see Sliema Wanderers join Betsson’s international football portfolio, alongside leading clubs including Inter, Club Brugge, Boca Juniors and Atlético Nacional.

The MOU reflects a shared commitment to the long-term development of Sliema Wanderers and the club’s ambition to strengthen its sporting infrastructure, enhance its competitive position and establish a more sustainable operating model for the future.

Sliema Wanderers is one of a limited number of Maltese football clubs that owns premises which can be developed and commercialised to generate recurring revenue. The club intends to continue investing in its facilities and creating additional revenue streams to support its long-term sporting ambitions.

Jesper Svensson, CEO at Betsson Group, said: “Betsson has been part of Malta for over 20 years, and we are proud to deepen our long-standing commitment to the local sporting community.

“This proposed partnership goes well beyond the traditional sponsorship model. We are supporting a club with a clear vision for its future, including stronger sporting facilities and a sustainable model that can support its continued development.

“Sliema Wanderers has demonstrated ambition and a genuine commitment to long-term progress. These are values that strongly resonate with Betsson, and we look forward to working with the club and bring its vision to life.”

The proposed partnership builds on the work undertaken by the club’s new committee, which has focused on strengthening the club’s financial foundations and investing in its sporting infrastructure.

Walter Arciola, President of Sliema Wanderers FC, said: “The signing of this MOU represents an important vote of confidence in the long-term vision we have established for Sliema Wanderers.

“Our objective is not simply to achieve success on the pitch. We want to build an institution that is financially sustainable, supported by high-quality facilities and positioned to compete successfully over the long term.

“Betsson has understood and embraced that vision from the outset. We are delighted to take this important first step towards a long-term partnership and look forward to working together to support the future development of Sliema Wanderers.”

The announcement comes as Sliema Wanderers continues to strengthen its sporting project ahead of the upcoming season. During the event, the club also presented Malta international Teddy Teuma as its latest signing, following the recent arrivals of fellow Malta internationals Alexander Satariano and Henry Bonello. The three signings further reflect the club’s ambition to combine immediate sporting progress with a sustainable long-term development strategy.

The Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland (GRAI) had signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Nevada Gaming Control Board (NGCB), signalling partnership and cooperation between one of the most recently established Gambling regulators and the world’s widely recognised oldest and longest-standing dedicated gaming regulator.

The MOU is the first between the GRAI and a gambling regulatory entity in the US, marking a first step in collaboration between Irish and American gambling authorities.

With the recent commencement of licensing for online and remote betting services in Ireland, both the GRAI and the NGCB recognise the need for diligence in terms of regulating and licensing online platforms where an increasing amount of gambling and betting takes place, often across borders.

Anne Marie Caulfield, CEO of the GRAI, said: “The knowledge and expertise that the Nevada Gaming Control Board have in terms of gambling regulation are very valuable to us in the GRAI.

“We very much welcome the insight, guidance, and experience that the NGCB can provide to the GRAI as a newly established regulator, and I look forward to our continued partnership with the shared goal of consumer protection and public health and safety at the heart of operations.”

“We are pleased to sign an MOU with the GRAI and look forward to sharing best practices with them and advancing our collaboration,” said NGCB Chairman Mike Dreitzer.

Gaming Corps has signed a content partnership with evoke plc to roll out its games across the operator’s brands including William Hill, 888 and Mr Green. The companies said the collaboration will begin in the UK before extending to additional markets.

The initial launch includes an exclusive release of Bass Rewards Bonanza: The Golden Catch. Gaming Corps describes the title as a high-volatility slot featuring Fish Money symbols, Collect mechanics, persistent “Multicrease multipliers” and a 10,000x top prize.

Following the exclusive, evoke is set to add more content from the Gaming Corps catalogue across slots and other formats, including table and mine games, plinko and multiplier titles, plus proprietary products and series such as Smash4Cash and Instant Blitz.

Adam Pentecost, Chief Revenue Officer at Gaming Corps, said: “Some partnerships stand out because of their scale, while others carry added weight because of the brands involved. This one delivers on both.

“evoke sits behind some of betting and gaming’s most established brands. William Hill is woven into the fabric of the UK market, while 888 and Mr Green carry considerable recognition internationally. Bringing Gaming Corps content to names with that reach and heritage is a big moment for us.

“We have worked hard to earn opportunities of this calibre, and our focus now is on making the most of it, delivering content that connects with players and building a relationship that can become an important part of our broader ambitions.”

Lindsay Scholey, UK Gaming Content Manager at evoke said: “Gaming Corps has a clear creative identity and a portfolio that offers something different across several game formats.
