Elantil names Nadiya Attard as Chief Commercial Officer
Revolutionary new online casino platform solutions provider appoints Relax Gaming, NetEnt and Betfair commercial executive to strengthen its all-star C-level team
Elantil, the up-and-coming online casino platform solutions provider founded by iGaming veteran, Jonathan Gauci, has announced it has installed another cornerstone of its C-level line-up with the appointment of Nadiya Attard as the group’s new Chief Commercial Officer.
Having set out on a mission to leverage Gauci’s 22+ years of industry expertise, Elantil is committed to creating a new kind of platform that puts control back in the hands of the operator. The company has promised to pull out all the stops in assembling an all-star team of iGaming executives. The announcement of Nadiya Attard, a business leader and industry innovator of her caliber, is certainly a step in the right direction. With her proven track record of exceeding targets and driving revenue growth, she’s a great addition to the team.
With over 20 years of iGaming experience covering both B2C and B2B, Nadiya Attard’s glittering career has seen her hold key positions at some of the industry’s major players, including Betfair, Microgaming, NetEnt, and – most recently – Relax Gaming. Throughout her career, she has built successful, high-performing commercial teams and played a key role in scaling businesses. At NetEnt, she helped grow the company from 300 to 1,000 employees, while at Relax Gaming, she was instrumental in transforming a startup into a Tier 1 supplier. Her wealth of knowledge and proven ability to drive growth will be invaluable as Elantil establishes itself in the marketplace.
Nadiya Attard also has fantastic experience expanding the market presence of her previous companies, thanks to her deep knowledge of all major regulated markets, including the U.S. This makes her a key player in helping Elantil operators achieve seamless market entry, a cornerstone of the company’s innovative approach.
As someone who has also run the rule over countless iGaming companies in her capacity as a returning judge for the EGR Awards, Nadiya Attard definitely knows a thing or two about what goes into making a successful product – and it’s this type of industry-wide insight in addition to her considerable commercial and biz dev expertise that makes her such a perfect fit for the position.
Moving forward, Attard will be responsible for planning and implementing Elantil’s overall commercial and marketing strategy, building a great team of professionals, while also ensuring the business meets key performance objectives and hits customer satisfaction targets – and with the company having only officially launched earlier this month, it’s an incredibly exciting challenge that she’s clearly looking forward to getting started on.
Nadiya Attard, Chief Commercial Officer at Elantil, said: “Having worked in iGaming for over two decades and held positions at many of the industry’s major players, I find myself in the fortunate position of knowing exactly what goes into making an online casino platform successful. What excites me even more is the opportunity to work with companies that bring something truly innovative to the market. Elantil is doing just that, with a unique product that not only helps customers save costs but also drives high revenues. I’m thrilled to now have the chance to showcase this knowledge and passion in my new role as CCO at Elantil.
“Having spoken to Jonathan about his vision for the company and seen the product in action, I believe Elantil has the potential to offer something completely unique to operators and I’m very excited to be getting in on the ground floor as we continue to build what will be an all-star team!”
Jonathan Gauci, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at Elantil, said: “One of the driving factors for me starting Elantil was wanting to create a brand that does things the right way in terms of both its product and its people – and a huge part of that is having the right C-level team in place.
“Given we’re building the company from the ground up, this puts us in a great position where we can hand-pick the people that really represent our brand and values; and Nadiya certainly does just that. I’m very happy to be working with her on what will be a really exciting venture and believe her skill-set and in-depth knowledge of the industry will prove invaluable to Elantil going forward.”

Booming Games, a leading provider of premium gaming content, has today launched Sacred Buffalo, the latest addition to its popular series of buffalo games. Boasting a 5×4 grid with 30 fixed paylines, the game offers a maximum win potential of 8,000x. It contains a powerful Cash Collect feature and Free Spins with Minor Elimination, Major Upgrade and Sacred Spin features to enhance the gameplay experience.
In the base game, landing Coin and Scatter symbols are collected into the Buffalo Totems, with the Wooden Totem triggering the Cash Collect feature and the Golden Totem triggering Free Spins. Coins can land reels 1-4 and carry awards from 1x-50x. Landing a Collect symbol on reel 5 along with coins will collect all coins in view and award to the player.
Three Bonus symbols landing on reels 1, 3 and 5 will award 15 Free Spins. In the bonus game, when Minor symbols form a win, they are eliminated and removed from the reels, triggering a symbols cascade.
Additionally, Major symbols that form a win will be upgraded to their Spirit form and enhance and double their win value. All Wilds that land will be collected and stored for the Sacred Spin at the end of Free Spins. At this point, the collected Wilds are added to the reels for a huge big win potential finale.
At any time, players can purchase the Buy Bonus for 75x the bet amount.
Craig Asling, Director of Games at Booming Games, said: “Our Buffalo games have been among our best performers, and we are delighted to be adding a new game to the series. Sacred Buffalo combines innovative features with a large win potential, and is the latest example of our efforts to bring new mechanics into our games to maintain high levels of player engagement.”

Study of 1,752 Big 5 league matches finds a 12-point uptime gap; live World Cup leaderboard to run during the tournament.
Bettormetrics has launched what it calls the first World Cup Trading Performance Benchmark, ranking sportsbooks on in-play market uptime ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The sports odds intelligence firm said it will publish a live World Cup leaderboard on its website during the tournament to track trading performance.
The benchmark measures operator uptime on the Total Goals market across 1,752 fixtures in the Premier League, Bundesliga, La Liga, Serie A and Ligue 1. Bettormetrics analysed 22 operators and published a Top 10, reporting a gap of more than 12 percentage points between the highest and lowest performers.
Tipico ranked first overall with 95.9% uptime, followed by Fanatics (95.3%) and Betsson (94.9%). Superbet (94.8%) and Betano (94.7%) rounded out the top five. Bettormetrics said Premier League fixtures generally delivered the highest availability across operators, while La Liga was “the key differentiator” and “consistently produced the lowest availability figures across the field.”
The results also highlighted regional shifts. Bettormetrics noted that none of bet365, William Hill, Ladbrokes or Paddy Power made the Top 10, while Fanatics placed second overall as the highest-ranked US operator. It also flagged Pinnacle and SBOBET as ranking poorly on in-play availability in this analysis despite “strong reputations for pregame pricing and market depth.”
Sabin Brooks, CEO of Bettormetrics, said: “The World Cup represents one of the highest-risk and highest-opportunity periods in the sportsbook calendar. Small differences in uptime, trading performance and market availability can have a material impact on turnover, profitability and even reputation.
“The World Cup leaderboard will answer one simple question: which sportsbook performed best when it matters most?”
