ULIS and French professional football league (LFP) entered into a partnership agreement to safeguard the integrity of French professional football
The United Lotteries for Integrity in Sports (ULIS), the integrity body for state lotteries, has signed a cooperation agreement with the French professional football league Ligue de Football Professionnel (LFP) to reinforce the protection of sports integrity in France’s top-tier football competitions, Ligue 1 McDonald’s and Ligue 2 BKT. This new partnership reflects the shared determination of both organizations to uphold the principles of transparency, fairness, and ethical conduct in sport.
This agreement facilitates the exchange of crucial information between ULIS and the LFP to prevent and combat competition manipulation threats to football. As part of its operational role, ULIS will conduct pre-season integrity assessments of clubs and other stakeholders, ensuring that the foundations of French professional football remain strong and trustworthy.
The LFP, which is responsible for managing professional football in France under the regulations of the French Football Federation, has a longstanding commitment to creating an environment in which professional clubs can operate effectively and fairly. This collaboration with ULIS underscores the LFP’s dedication to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and integrity within the sport.
Speaking about the agreement ULIS President Gilles Maillet said: “This partnership reinforces the collective efforts of ULIS and the LFP to ensure that Ligue 1 McDonald’s and Ligue 2 BKT remain synonymous with fair play and ethical excellence. It represents an extra instrument to protect the integrity of French football. ULIS has always been committed to ensure the integrity of French sports and we will continue to do so now with the additional support of the LFP.”
The announcement of this partnership agreement highlights the vital role of international collaboration that integrity bodies like ULIS play in addressing the complex challenges of competition manipulation and misuse of betting practices. By leveraging their expertise both organizations also aim to promote a positive sporting environment for players and football fans.

Company united under the SkillOnNet umbrella in show of “unity, clarity and strength”
Global entertainment brand SkillOnNet is celebrating 20 years of innovation, growth and success with the launch of a rebranded website and logo and the unveiling of a bold new company identity.
A new corporate structure will bring together all areas of the business – SkillonNetOPS, SkillonNetMarketing, SkillonNetR&D, SkillonNetCORP, and SkillonNetGames – into one collaborative, unified organization under the SkillonNet umbrella, designed to drive sustainable growth across the company’s roster of B2C and partner brands.
The milestone was marked with a weekend of celebrations kicking off September 11, with international staff from across SkillOnNet’s offices flying to Limassol, Cyprus to join the festivities. Parties were held each evening over the weekend, with keynote speeches that reflected on the company’s journey, its future vision, and the strength of its employees.
“Today, we present our new company identity, which unites all of our offices under one strong, recognizable brand – a brand that reflects our culture: fun and passionate, but above all, one that unites us as a single, powerful team,” said Ohad Narkis, co-founder of SkillonNet’s flagship brand PlayOJO, adding that the change was about “unity, clarity, and strength reflecting internally within the organization as well as externally with partners and suppliers .”
“It helps us move faster, work smarter, and deliver our values: We’re experts in play, hands on, and always better together,” he added.
Founded in 2005 with a focus on online backgammon, SkillOnNet quickly pivoted into casino entertainment, laying the foundation for a platform that now powers some of the industry’s most successful brands, including PlayOJO, DrückGlück, BacanaPlay and Genting.
Today, the company holds more than a dozen local licenses across Europe, South America, and North America, and serves millions of players worldwide.
“We are now truly an entertainment company, with a proprietary technology and best of class operation serving millions – players who are, after our employees, our greatest asset,” Kfir Chervinski SkillOnNet Founder said; “As we celebrate 20 years in iGaming, this rebrand marks more than just a fresh identity – it’s a milestone that reflects who we are and where we’re headed. So, here’s to the next decade of growth, innovation, and delivering the best in play.”
