Casino Guru is proud to announce the commencement of the third stage of the Self-exclusion Standards project, an initiative led by Dr Margaret Carran, Associate Professor in Law and Associate Dean (Education) at the at The City Law School of City, University of London and sponsored by Casino Guru.
The Self-exclusion Standards project aims to identify the best practice in online gambling self-exclusion in order to help maximise the level of player protection and to help build a robust process of self-exclusion to enable such schemes to truly become an effective barrier between players who struggle with controlling their gambling habits and online gambling in general.
To arrive at a solution, the Self-exclusion Standards project embarked on a comprehensive journey, that fostered cooperation with international stakeholders to create a set of online self-exclusion recommendations that will be available for adoption across different jurisdictions. Previous stages included comprehensive research of existing evidence and a series of meetings of 10 international stakeholders with diverse expertise and experience with online self-exclusion.  To this end, the Self-exclusion Standards project is now entering its final stage, where it will explicitly seek broader consultations with online gambling stakeholders.
Dr.  Carran said of the final stage of the project: “Our draft set of recommendations is based on extensive deliberations of international experts and we believe that it presents the most optimal online self-exclusion code of practice for operators. We now need external feedback to drive inclusion, to gain broader input from all interested stakeholders, including international regulators and the industry to ensure that our final recommendations  could indeed be adopted globally for the benefit of players and the industry alike”. 
Ultimately, the project will culminate in a comprehensive paper consisting of the final Code for Online Self-Exclusion Practice that will be publicly available so it can serve as a reference point for the industry and other interested parties. The paper will assist in driving further research in this field, and will also serve as a stepping-stone for broader discussion about self-exclusion processes, and how existing practices can be re-examined and reinvented.
This final stage seeks broader collaboration specifically to obtain valuable and actionable feedback that can be leveraged to provide quality conclusions that help establish a robust set of recommendations, and that are based on the broader knowledge of the industry. 
This external feedback will help streamline the project’s efforts as it seeks to position itself firmly in the heart of industry as an efficient and effective tool. Consultation is open from now through to September 10, 2024. Preliminary findings will be presented at the EASG Conference 2024 and the final code due to be ready in January 2025.
Šimon Vincze, Casino Guru’s Sustainable and Safer Gambling Lead, noted: “We want to engage the broader industry to increase the impact and benefits of the project. A lot of good work stays on paper or in journals without usage in the real world. We want to change it by actively engaging with the industry.
Find out more about the Self-exclusion Standards project and respond to consultation on the project’s official page, part of the broader Global Self-Exclusion Initiative.

Casino Guru is committed to helping players make better-informed decisions and access responsible gambling resources through initiatives and campaigns aimed at the player and the broader gambling community.

Top Sports Events & Promos by N1 Partners: Where to Drive Tier-1 Traffic in February

Published

top-sports-events-&-promos-by-n1-partners:-where-to-drive-tier-1-traffic-in-february

February presents one of the strongest seasonal windows for affiliates working with Tier-1 sports traffic — and N1 Partners is expanding the opportunities even further.

The affiliate program has strengthened its sports offering by making betting available across three brands: the flagship N1 Bet, alongside RollXO and Lucky Hunter. This multi-brand setup allows partners to scale sports traffic strategically while leveraging casino brands with proven conversion performance.

Instead of relying on a single product, affiliates can now diversify traffic flows, stabilize KPIs, and combine sports, casino, and seasonal promotional mechanics for stronger long-term results.

Why February Is a Prime Month for Sports Traffic

Conversion stability often depends on timing. Campaigns aligned with seasonal peaks, major sporting events, and emotionally engaging dates consistently outperform generic traffic launches.

February stands out due to:

  • A packed schedule of top European football leagues and international tournaments

  • The Winter Olympic Games

  • Valentine’s Day seasonal campaigns

  • Increased emotional engagement and deposit intent

During high-profile events and holiday periods, users are more likely to deposit, participate in promotions, and return to the platform. The right contextual hook can directly influence conversion rate, average deposit size, and retention.

To help affiliates capitalize on this momentum, N1 Partners has prepared a focused list of key February sports events and active promotional mechanics.

Key Sports Events in February 2026

11 February

  • Coppa Italia Quarter-final: Bologna vs Lazio

  • Olympic Ice Hockey: Slovakia vs Finland

  • Premier League: Manchester City vs Fulham

This density of premium events creates multiple testing angles for creatives, pre-landers, and geo-targeted funnels.

Valentine’s Day Promotions Across N1 Partners Brands

To enhance conversion rates during peak emotional engagement, N1 Partners is launching seasonal campaigns across key brands.

Valentine’s Advent Calendar (N1 Bet & RollXO)

These mechanics integrate smoothly into sports-driven funnels and allow affiliates to increase average deposit value and session frequency.

Why This Strategy Works for Tier-1 Affiliates

Seasonal and event-driven campaigns help partners:

  • Increase average deposit size

  • Improve LTV through repeat engagement

  • Offset typical mid-quarter CR slowdowns

  • Enhance emotional appeal through contextual offers

  • Diversify revenue streams across sports and casino

In competitive Tier-1 markets, product-driven campaigns and structured promotions help stabilize performance and make scaling more predictable.

What Affiliates Should Do Now

February combines major football clashes, Olympic hype, NBA spotlight events, and Valentine’s promotions into one high-conversion window.

Now is the time to:

  • Drive sports traffic to top European leagues and Olympic matchups

  • Integrate Valentine’s promotions into creatives

  • Split-test traffic between N1 Bet, RollXO, and Lucky Hunter

  • Use seasonal hooks to strengthen CTR and deposit intent

N1 Partners expands its sports traffic capabilities. Betting is now available across three brands within the affiliate program’s portfolio: alongside the flagship sports product N1 Bet, RollXO and Lucky Hunter have joined the lineup.

For partners, this opens up new opportunities to work with Tier-1 sports traffic. You can scale volumes on a dedicated betting product while simultaneously running sports traffic on casino brands with already strong conversion rates. This approach allows affiliates to diversify traffic flows, reduce reliance on a single product, and strengthen key performance metrics by combining sports, casino, and seasonal promotional mechanics.

Why Seasonal Events Matter When Driving Traffic

In practice, the most consistent conversion results are achieved when traffic launches are aligned with seasonality, key news hooks, and behavioral peaks in player activity.

February offers a particularly strong combination of factors:

  • a packed schedule of top football leagues and tournaments
  • the Winter Olympic Games
  • seasonal holidays, including Valentine’s Day
  • increased emotional engagement from players

During such periods, users are more likely to make deposit decisions, engage with promotions, and return to the product. Timing and the right contextual hook have a direct impact on overall performance.

To simplify campaign planning and help partners make the most of this period, the N1 Partners team has prepared a selection of key sports events and active promotions that are well suited for driving sports traffic.
