BetConstruct AI rebrands Harmony event as “Harmony Predictstreet” in Yerevan
The July 8–9 gathering highlighted a new partnership with ADI Predictstreet, described as FIFA’s Official Prediction Market Partner.
BetConstruct AI held its Harmony Predictstreet networking event on July 8–9, 2026 in Yerevan, Armenia, marking the eighth edition of the Harmony series and drawing “over 300 guests,” according to the company.
The company said the Predictstreet naming reflects a strategic collaboration with ADI Predictstreet, which it describes as “FIFA’s Official Prediction Market Partner.” BetConstruct AI said it has integrated ADI Predictstreet’s prediction market products and “official match streaming rights” into its platform, timed around the FIFA World Cup Final “just days away.”
Day one was hosted at Garni Temple and included networking, a performance by the Armenian National Philharmonic Orchestra, a mapping show and a DJ set by DJ Leblanc, the company said.
Day two began with a visit to SoftConstruct headquarters for an office tour and networking, followed by a gala dinner at Dvin Music Hall. BetConstruct AI said founders and executive leadership presented product and strategy updates spanning Eventbook, the ADI Predictstreet partnership, Betting Mate, The Last Battle Universe, Betbuilder & Powerbank, Softgates, and updates related to Vivaro.me and Open Stake.

Regulated iGaming markets push operators toward audit-ready affiliate tracking
As regulators scrutinise AML, RG and advertising, operators face rising pressure to validate attribution and partner payouts end to end.
Growing regulation in iGaming is changing how operators manage affiliates, track player acquisition, and control partner payouts, according to a new statement from affiliate platform provider Affnook.
The company argues that in regulated markets affiliates are increasingly treated as an extension of an operator’s marketing activity, raising the stakes for oversight in areas such as affiliate advertising practices, responsible gambling controls, anti-money laundering (AML) and data privacy. The release points to the Danish Gambling Authority as one example of a regulator highlighting potential AML risks linked to affiliate partnerships and urging operators to strengthen risk assessments across third-party acquisition channels.
Affnook says the industry is moving away from “Trust Me” affiliate reporting as stakeholders demand performance data and revenue attribution that can be independently verified. It lists audit-ready reporting, verifiable revenue attribution, transparency into tracking and commission calculations, and consistent reporting standards as key expectations in more heavily regulated environments.
The company also frames financial governance as a parallel priority to tracking, citing the need for net gaming revenue (NGR) verification, commission accuracy, invoice reconciliation and payment oversight. It adds that multi-touch player journeys and reduced effectiveness of cookie-based attribution are widening “attribution blind spots,” which can fuel partner disputes, weaken decision-making and complicate compliance reviews.
In the release, Affnook positions platform features such as audit logs, partner activity monitoring, consent-aware tracking, real-time commission calculations and server-to-server tracking as the types of capabilities operators should evaluate as regulatory expectations increase.
