UiPath, a leading agentic automation and AI software company, today announced that La Française des Jeux (FDJ), France’s top gaming operator, has successfully implemented the UiPath Platform to revolutionize key business processes through three innovative projects. This transformative initiative has also earned FDJ recognition as a winner of the UiPath AI25 Awards, celebrating the most innovative uses of AI and automation.

FDJ is the leading French gambling and lottery operator, serving over 25 million players through nearly 30,000 points of sale across 11,000 municipalities. With annual stakes of €20.6 billion, including €2.5 billion in digital stakes, FDJ generates €2.5 billion in revenue and contributes €4.1 billion in public levies on gambling. The company employs nearly 2,700 people and sustains over 55,300 jobs throughout France.

Key highlights of FDJ’s AI and automation implementation with UiPath:

  • ACPR (Autorité de Contrôle Prudentiel et de Résolution) Project: Automated retailer registration process using UiPath Document Understanding saves 250 working days annually, accelerating revenue generation across FDJ’s extensive retail network

  • NIV (Nouvelle Identité Visuelle or New Visual Identity) Project: AI-powered image analysis will ensure 100% verification of new visual identity across 30,000 retail locations, maintaining brand consistency once implemented

  • Mails Fournisseurs Project: AI-driven email management system, leveraging UiPath AI Center, which processes 10,000 supplier emails annually, will significantly reduce manual workload for FDJ’s finance team

Nicolas Bouttier, Head of Process Automation at FDJ, said: “These projects showcase the transformative power of UiPath’s AI and automation solutions across our operations. We’ve not only achieved significant time and cost savings but also improved accuracy and enabled our team to focus on higher-value tasks, which is crucial for maintaining our position as a leader in the industry. The recognition as a UiPath AI25 Award winner further validates our innovative approach to leveraging technology for business transformation.”

The ACPR project, a partnership with the Directorate General of Public Finances (DGFiP), automated the registration process for 30,000 retailers offering a new payment service. UiPath Document Understanding extracts and verifies retailer information, saving 20 minutes per retailer and processing 6,000 retailers annually. This streamlined process allows retailers to offer FDJ new products sooner, directly impacting revenue.

In the NIV project, AI-powered image analysis shifted quality control from sample-based to 100% verification of FDJ’s new visual identity installation across its retail network. This comprehensive approach ensures accuracy and completeness in brand representation, critical for a company with FDJ’s extensive retail presence.

The Mails Fournisseurs project employs multiple AI models, including UiPath AI Center for natural language processing, to manage supplier emails. The system automates classification, data extraction, and response generation for invoices and payment status queries. While responses are currently validated by the accounting team, the goal is full automation, promising significant time and resource savings for FDJ’s finance operations.

Mark Gibbs, President of EMEA and APJ at UiPath, said: “FDJ’s success demonstrates how UiPath’s comprehensive AI and automation technologies are driving innovation and operational excellence across all industries. Its strategic use of the UiPath Platform showcases the potential for enhancing employee experiences, optimizing resources, and achieving key business goals, even for organizations operating at a national scale. We’re proud to recognize FDJ as a UiPath AI25 Award winner, highlighting its position as a leader in leveraging AI and automation to drive transformative outcomes.”

Title pairs advanced Cashingo™ experience with ULTRA Link&Win™ enhancements

Games Global, together with its exclusive studio partner, Slingshot Studios, has released Eruption Blaze Cashingo™, bolstering the popular series with a feature-rich release, where jackpots up to 5,000x chart a path to 13,283x win potential.

Set against the backdrop of a lava-spewing volcano, every cash and jackpot coin that lands is added to the mirrored Cashingo™ grid, with the value of all prizes paid out when a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row is completed.

Adding further variety to the action is the integrated ULTRA Link&Win™ feature, which can be activated by landing six or more coins. The feature begins with three respins on a 5×5 reel set, with three extra rows initially locked. Keys can unlock additional rows, expanding the reels and increasing win potential.

Special Boosters can appear during the round, including Doublers that increase the value of up to four cash prize coins and Collectors that gather all visible cash coin values at once. Persistent versions of these boosters remain active, while Extra Life coins award an extra spin once the initial respins are exhausted.

Free Spins offer a change of pace and greater depth, with a Power Stacks™ feature enhancing wild and coin symbols to elevate potential.

Eruption Blaze Cashingo™ showcases Slingshot Studios’ continued refinement of the Cashingo™ franchise, delivering an engaging, well-paced gameplay experience.

Richard Vermaak, Creative Director at Slingshot Studios, said: “Our goal with Eruption Blaze Cashingo™ was to take what players enjoy about Cashingo™ and give it more room to develop.

“The combination of the Cashingo™ and Power Stacks™ mechanics introduces a dynamic element to the base game, and the enhanced ULTRA Link&Win™ feature adds clear progression as the grid expands. We are delighted with how the experience comes together.”

David Reynolds, Director of Games Strategy & Partner Management at Games Global, added:Eruption Blaze Cashingo™ is a strong addition to our portfolio and a great evolution of the Cashingo™ concept. Cash and jackpot coins open up new ways for the game to build, while the updates to the ULTRA Link&Win™ feature bring more variety to each round.

“Slingshot Studios has continued to grow the series in a way that feels natural and engaging.”

13 gambling company executives in appeal against ATG’s proposal to raise gambling tax in Sweden

13-gambling-company-executives-in-appeal-against-atg’s-proposal-to-raise-gambling-tax-in-sweden

BOS – The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling – is today submitting a letter to the government. The letter is signed by 13 gambling company executives and BOS’s secretary general. In the letter, the signatories urge the government not to support the gambling company ATG in their proposal to raise the general gambling tax in favour of a reduction in the tax on horse racing.

As a main argument, the signatories highlight the fact that the level of the gambling tax affects the proportion of consumers who choose to gamble on the legal licensed gambling market, and that too many consumers are already opting out of the safety of the licensed market with its extensive consumer protection.

“Horse betting has a channelisation rate of between 98-99 percent. Online casino, according to the most optimistic estimates, has a channelisation rate of between 72-82 percent. The higher the tax, the greater the risk that the consumer will choose unlicensed gambling, where neither gambling tax nor consumer protection exists. To then lower the gambling tax for horse betting, which already has a very strong channelisation, and raise it for online casino, which has a very weak channelisation, would be completely incomprehensible. At least for those who prioritize consumer protection,” says BOS Secretary General Gustaf Hoffstedt.
