BETER Live becomes ICONIC21
BETER Live, provider of live betting solutions, has officially rebranded to ICONIC21 as it enters a new chapter having separated from the BETER Group.
The strategic move allows ICONIC21 to deploy its own vision with a sharpened focus as it continues to strengthen its position as a must-have provider in the fast-growing online market.
As ICONIC21, the business will operate independently having built a super-star team that includes the brightest minds and creative talents in the gaming content space.
The business has already enjoyed incredible success by taking a client-first approach, responding quickly to requests and ensuring its products and experiences are always ahead of the curve.
ICONIC21 will continue to manage all aspects of operations internally which in turn means it can deliver a highly customisable yet efficient service to its customers while meeting their unique needs and requirements.
The company promises to take this to the next level over the coming months, with a more personalised service, faster delivery of new features and a greater focus on securing strategic partnerships to fuel growth for both ICONIC21 and its customers.
In addition, ICONIC21 will further expand its product portfolio which will boast more variety and innovative features so that its content caters to a wider audience and with deeper player engagement.
This includes focusing on unique, innovative content and games, never-seen-before formats and bonus features, with a greater focus on the ever-popular live gameshow segment.
The company’s robust promotional engine will be further enhanced with the introduction of additional products and tools, enabling partners to run comprehensive, targeted campaigns aimed at driving acquisition and retention
ICONIC21 remains committed to setting the standard for customer personalisation, allowing operators to tailor the live dealer and live games experience offered to their players in a way that perfectly aligns with their branding and player expectations and preferences in each market they target.
Edvardas Sadovskis, CPO at ICONIC21, said: “Our transition to ICONIC21 is a strategic step forward that reflects our vision to lead with a passion for innovation, oriented toward our partners and players. Our commitment to customer-centricity has been at the heart of our success.
With our new brand, we will accelerate our growth plans, bringing more groundbreaking content and unique game formats to the market.
Rebranding as ICONIC21 symbolizes a new era where we can deepen our commitment to becoming the must-have provider in the gaming industry. We are leveraging our talented team and expanding our product offerings to ensure that our partners have access to unparalleled content that drives player acquisition, retention, and overall satisfaction.”

Gamblers Connect names Gali Hartuv as seventh 2026 Contributors Program voice
The Playa strategic advisor will publish on VIP operations, segmentation and retention, starting with an anonymous VIP Operations Survey 2026.
Gamblers Connect has confirmed Gali Hartuv, Strategic Advisor at The Playa, as the seventh voice to join its 2026 Contributors Program.
The independent B2B iGaming media platform said the programme will reveal one senior industry voice per month throughout 2026, with contributors publishing under the Gamblers Connect Contributor Editorial Code.
Gamblers Connect said Hartuv has more than 15 years’ experience in VIP management, including designing and optimising VIP programmes across more than 50 operator brands, and training “hundreds of professionals” now working in VIP roles across the industry.
Hartuv will publish across four areas: building VIP programmes that drive long-term value; AI-powered VIP identification and player segmentation; hyper-personalisation and retention strategy; and scaling VIP operations across different markets and cultures. His first contribution is a VIP Operations Survey 2026, an anonymous survey intended to benchmark how VIP teams work across iGaming operators, including portfolio sizing, tools, qualification thresholds, workflow standards and where time is spent during the week.
Partnerships and Operations Lead, Luka Dimitrijevic, said: “VIP management is where a great deal of an operator’s value is won or lost, and very few people can speak to it with Gali’s depth. He has spent his career turning high value player relationships into a discipline rather than guesswork, and he is refreshingly candid about what works and what does not. Through the Contributors Program he will share practical insight on VIP strategy, retention, and the smart use of AI, with content grounded in real results rather than recycled best practices.”

St8 extends TonyBet partnership to Alberta after securing supplier registration
St8 has extended its partnership with TonyBet into Alberta, expanding their Canada footprint following an earlier launch in Ontario this year.
Under the expanded agreement, TonyBet will use St8’s game aggregation platform through a single API integration. St8 said this provides access to its wider catalogue of casino content for players in Alberta.
St8 said the Alberta rollout follows its newly acquired registration to operate in the province as an iGaming Services Supplier, allowing it to provide aggregation services to licensed operators in the market. The company said its platform connects partners to more than 200 game providers via a single API.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said:
“Entering Alberta’s regulated market is a strong step for St8 that represents our continued efforts to bring our offerings to as many territories as possible, delivering top-tier results for partnerships at the local, national and international stage. We share this commitment with TonyBet, a company that we are very fortunate to be working with so collaboratively and closely as we continue to grow our presence across North America.”
Kiryl Liudvikevich, Head of Product at TonyBet, said:
“We’re proud that our work with St8 has enabled us to continue expanding across Canada. Through St8’s aggregation platform, we can seamlessly access games from the industry’s leading providers via a single integration, helping us scale efficiently while maintaining a strong focus on the player experience. St8 has cemented itself as our go-to partner for expansion into regulated markets, and we look forward to continuing our collaboration as we grow into new jurisdictions.”
