Novibet has licences to operate in Greece, Malta, Cyprus, Ireland and Italy, and has expressed an interest in obtaining a licence in Brazil, which is expected to being its licensing process later this year. The operator joins over 50 companies and 125 leading sports betting brands in IBIA and further cements IBIA’s position as the leading customer account-based betting integrity monitoring body globally.
Panagiotis Skyrlas, Chief International Expansion Officer, Novibet, said: “At Novibet, our commitment to transparency has always been at the core of everything we do. Joining IBIA is a testament to this commitment, as we continually strive to set new benchmarks for integrity and excellence in the online betting industry.

Ensuring product integrity is paramount to our approach and we look forward to integrating Novibet within our leading global sports betting integrity monitoring system.”
IBIA is a not-for-profit body that has no competing conflicts with the delivery of commercial services to other sectors and is run by operators for operators to protect regulated sports betting markets from match-fixing. IBIA’s global monitoring network is a highly effective anti-corruption tool, detecting and reporting suspicious activity in regulated betting markets.
Through the IBIA global monitoring network it is possible to track transactional activities linked to individual customer accounts. IBIA members have over $300bn per annum in betting turnover (handle), accounting for approximately 50% of the global commercial regulated land-based and online sports betting sector, and in excess of 50% for online alone.

A joint Nordic research project is now mapping gambling habits and gambling problems – 150,000 people in the Nordic region are participating in the sample.
The Nordic countries Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Denmark have launched a unique joint research project on gambling: the Pan-Nordic Gambling Study (PANG). The aim is to gather comparable knowledge about gambling habits and gambling problems in the region – something that has been lacking so far. From Sweden, the Public Health Agency, which is responsible for the assignment, and the Swedish Gambling Authority have participated in the work of developing the study.
The study includes, among other things, the prevalence of gambling, participation in different forms of gambling, differences between licensed and unlicensed gambling, and the connection between gambling and health.
“The study will provide a basis for assessing gambling and gambling problems in the Nordic countries. It will be exciting to compare the results with previous Swedish data and with the rest of the Nordic countries, especially since so few similar joint surveys have been conducted in Europe,” says Maria Vinberg, investigator at the Swedish Gambling Authority.
Data collection will now begin in November 2025, when approximately 30,000 randomly selected people in each country will have the opportunity to participate in the survey. The results of the survey will be published in a joint report in spring 2026 and will constitute an important knowledge base for research and future decisions in the field of gambling.

This December, Tom Horn Gaming invites players to the snowy mountain peaks in its new release, Santa Yetti, a playful holiday adventure where the jolly king of the mountains swaps his sleigh for snow boots to deliver frosty fortunes and festive fun.
Santa Yetti brings a flurry of excitement to the reels with Expanding Wilds, Multipliers, Respins, and the Respin Booster feature.
The Snowman is a Wild symbol. When it lands on any of the three reels, it expands and triggers a single respin. During the respin, seven win lines transform into twenty-seven ways to win, piling up prizes like Christmas presents. When all three reels are fully stacked with the same symbol, the total win is multiplied by ten, creating a snowstorm of rewards.
Players can also activate the Respin Booster, which increases their total bet by 1.5x and boosts the chance of triggering a respin by 300%. The feature remains active until manually switched off, giving players full control over their gameplay. For those feeling extra lucky, the Star Gamble Ladder appears after every base game win, allowing them to gamble their winnings by guessing the next star’s colour – pink or blue. Each correct guess doubles the prize and pushes the player up one level. The Golden Star can randomly appear at levels two to five to double the win instantly, no guess required.
“Santa Yeti brings together everything players love about Tom Horn games – fun, engaging mechanics, and a great story to match. It’s festive, it’s fresh, and it’s packed with features that keep the excitement rolling. We wanted to end the year on a high note, and Santa Yetti does exactly that with humour, charm, and plenty of win potential,” said Ondrej Lapides, CEO at Tom Horn Gaming.
Blending simple yet fast-paced gameplay with dynamic mechanics, Santa Yetti offers short, mobile-optimised sessions that are sure to delight both casual spinners and seasoned players. Its engaging format and rewarding features make it a perfect choice for operators looking to boost engagement during the high-traffic festive season. With its playful theme, quirky light-hearted style, and generous win potential, Santa Yetti is set to make this Christmas truly santastic.
