BGaming supports local street artist as part of ongoing creative project in Lisbon
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming has teamed up with Portuguese street artist Gonçalo MAR to create floral artwork as part of its creative initiative dedicated to the participation of iGaming exhibitions.
Through the ‘When Art Meets Gaming’ series, BGaming teamed up with local graffiti artist Gonçalo MAR, who has combined elements of comic book, floral and street art styles to produce vibrant and surreal pieces. For 25 years this talented creator has participated in group exhibitions, art festivals and solo showcases all over Portugal, and in 2022, received the Medal of Cultural Merit from the Municipal Chamber of Seixal.
For BGaming’s 7th art collaboration, street artist Gonçalo MAR used leaves and flowers designs and combined them with BGaming’s most loved characters from games such as Aztec Clusters, Elvis Frog Trueways, Aztec Magic Megaways, and Book of Cats, ahead of SBC Summit 2024 in Lisbon.
Alongside artwork to be displayed at BGaming’s stand, the provider has also developed branded merchandise and gifts for the partners and attendees of the event, which runs from 24th to 26th September.
For this partnership, the games studio will make a donation to the European Intercultural Club, a Portuguese non-profit association founded in 1998, that supports youth education, training, and employability. The Club organises activities that respect values and principles such as democracy, human rights, solidarity, equality, interculturality, respect, and appreciation for differences.
BGaming continues to support local street artists in the countries hosting some of the industry’s biggest events, ensuring their presence benefits local communities.
Kate Puteiko, CMO at BGaming, said: “This latest collaboration continues to build on BGaming’s reputation as a modern creative game provider that is open to collaborations and co-creation. We love to experiment, as is demonstrated in our striking games and history of unique exhibition art.
“We are thrilled that Gonçalo MAR will be giving our iconic characters a makeover once more, this time as they prepare to appear at SBC Summit 2024.”
Street artist Gonçalo MAR said: “I consider myself a street artist for the simple reason that my work communicates very well on the streets and I am passionate about social commentary. I like the idea of viewing the streets as open-air art galleries.
“This partnership with BGaming arose from the connection the company has with street art and I am very proud to have been chosen. The challenge of transforming the game characters into my style gave me immense pleasure and the process of deconstructing the characters went far beyond what I expected in a very positive and rewarding way.”

Tonybet player in Canada claims $20,000 CAD golden World Cup card prize
Tonybet says a player in Laurier-Station, Canada has claimed the “golden card” prize worth $20,000 CAD in the operator’s World Cup Card Collection. The announcement was made Tuesday 21st July 2026.
The World Cup collection featured 51 cards in total, including 48 digital cards representing participating World Cup nations, plus three unique prize cards in bronze, silver and gold. Tonybet said the bronze card—available during the group stage—was previously found by a customer in Saint-Colomban, Canada, while the silver card—available during the knockout rounds up to the quarter-finals—was won by a player in County Kildare, Ireland.
The golden card became available for the semi-final, third-place play-off and final, and has now been claimed, Tonybet said.
Tonybet Head of Product Kiryl Liudvikevich said: “You can plan a campaign down to the last detail, but you can’t plan what the World Cup brings.
“We designed the collection to evolve with the tournament, and every knockout round created new stories we couldn’t have predicted. Seeing players complete their collections and discovering who would uncover each prize was the most rewarding part of the campaign.
“I hope everyone enjoyed the experience for what it was meant to be: a fun addition to the tournament, played responsibly and always within their limits.”
Tonybet said the collection will remain open until 31 July for players who are still completing sets and spending coins, although all grand prizes have been awarded.
