Salsa Technology will be exhibiting at the upcoming SBC Summit Rio being held between March 5th to 7th at the iconic Windsor Convention & Expo Center. The Salsa team will be available to share details on its products and solutions for the Brazilian regulated market. Salsa’s leading solutions span the Salsa Omni (PAM platform), and the retail point of sales (POS) management system, Salsa Agents.
The Salsa Omni solution is available in three versions: Platinum, 100% certified and approved for the Brazilian regulated market, including mobile application registration in Apple and Google stores, as well as integration with the regulator’s safe system. Omni Gold has an App only for Android and via APK download, in addition to the agent system. The entry-level version, Silver, does not have the agent system but offers cashback for part of the platform’s setup fee. Both Gold and Silver versions are upgradable for the top solution.
Salsa Technology Founder, Peter Nolte said: “Salsa now provides its Salsa Omni Platinum platform to one of the first regulated operators in Brazil, NossaBet. We are ready to showcase our technology to all our clients and any operator targeting the Brazilian regulated market”.
Further to the GLI-33 certified Salsa Omni platform, the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) licensed Salsa Gator game aggregator, and the BMM-certified and MGA-licensed Salsa Studio games, Salsa Technology will be promoting its pivotal product for the global regulated iGaming markets: Salsa Safe. This is a secure system, designed to satisfy regulators, providing a comprehensive tool for integrating management data and effectively and transparently monitoring operators.
Salsa’s stand can be found on the ground floor (D380), where the company will continue its initiative of the colourful Senhor do Bomfim ribbons that will be given out by a model dressed as a “baiana”. The tradition tells that these ribbons have the capability to make three wishes come true. Shots of cachaça, another classic from Salsa, will be available for passersby.
Alongside founder, Peter Nolte, the Salsa team in Rio includes CTO, Diego Mourglia, COO André Neves; Head of Marketing & Sales, Eliane Nunes; Business Development Manager, Otávio Miranda; and Key Account Managers, Letícia Nostrane and Leila Ferreira, Product Manager, Georgiana Lopes and Marketing & CRM Coordinator, Lilian Carmona.

Real-money casual puzzle tournament startup says an EU private investor backed the April 2026 round.
EasyWin, a U.S.-based real-money gaming startup, said it has closed its second seed funding round at a $20 million valuation. The company announced the round in April 2026 and said it was backed by a private investor from the European Union.
The company previously closed its first seed round in December 2025 at a $15.5 million valuation. That round included funding from Velo Partners, Vladimir Nikolsky and several private angel investors.
EasyWin was founded by Ivan Leshkevich, a former executive at mobile game publisher and developer Mamboo Entertainment. The startup, which currently has a team of eight, says it has built a global tournament platform for casual puzzle games with cash prizes and operates across major markets.
Since launching in 2025, EasyWin reported 25% month-over-month growth in user spending and a 4.9 average user rating. It also said it has expanded into 12 countries with localized legal opinions and payment infrastructure, received PayPal approval for its MCC, and completed payments-stack integrations with global providers.
The company also said it has obtained GLI certification “confirming compliance with U.S. regulations for skill-based gaming products.” Leshkevich said: “In the long term, we aim to become a leading global skill-based gaming platform. To achieve this, we focus on a strong product USP and new AI-based dev tools.”
