UFC lightweight, Arman Tsarukyan, becomes Aviator ambassador
SPRIBE adds yet another superstar MMA athlete to its growing roster of Aviator brand ambassadors as number of monthly players surpasses 60 million
SPRIBE, the company behind the world’s number one crash game, Aviator, has signed yet another knock-out brand ambassador deal, this time with Armenian UFC lightweight, Arman Tsarukyan.
Under the deal, Arman will promote Aviator to his fans around the world, taking part in several high-profile campaigns over the coming 12 months.
Arman is one of the most feared athletes in the UFC’s lightweight division, where he’s ranked number two, but with aspirations to dethrone current champion Ilia Topuria.
Arman is the perfect Aviator brand ambassador with his explosive fighting style matching the thrill ride the game offers to the more than 60 million people who play it every month. These players place more than 400,000 bets per minute across more than 5,500 online casino sites worldwide.
Arman joins a growing roster of Aviator brand ambassadors, including fellow UFC athletes Alex Pereira, Johnny Walker and Merab Dvalishvili.
These partnerships have been signed as part of a wider deal with the UFC, which created a brand ambassador fund as well as putting the Aviator logo inside the world-famous Octagon at Fight Night and Pay Per View events.
Giorgi Tsutskiridze, Chief Commercial Officer at SPRIBE, said: “Our partnership with the UFC is proving to be hugely successful, allowing us to join forces with its superstar athletes and prize fighters such as Arman Tsarukyan.
“Arman is one of the hottest talents in the UFC pool right now, and it’s only a matter of time before he gets his shot at the lightweight division title.
“This is what makes him such a great ambassador for Aviator, and we look forward to working closely with Arman on some knock-out campaigns over the next 12 months.”
Arman Tsarukyan, UFC athlete and Aviator brand ambassador, added: “I am very selective about the products I partner with, but when it came to being an ambassador for Aviator, I couldn’t refuse.
“Nothing beats the thrill of stepping into the Octagon on Fight Night, but strapping in a taking flight with Aviator comes close.
“The SPRIBE team has some great campaigns in the works, and I’m looking forward to spreading the word about Aviator to my fans across the world.”

Playson, the established digital entertainment supplier, has strengthened its presence in Brazil after going live with leading local operator Betnacional, marking another key milestone in its Latin American growth strategy.
Owned by Flutter, Betnacional is a prominent sportsbook and casino brand focused on the Brazilian market, known for its strong local reach and expanding player base. Through the partnership, Betnacional’s customers now gain access to a selection of Playson’s top-performing titles, including 4 Pots Riches and Diamonds Power—both featuring the popular Hold and Win mechanic—as well as Sugar Teddy x1000, all recognised for their engaging gameplay and proven success in regulated markets.
The agreement highlights Playson’s ongoing strategy of collaborating with trusted, high-impact operators in key growth regions. Brazil continues to be a major focus for the supplier, driven by rising demand for high-quality, mobile-optimised content tailored to local player preferences.
This latest deal further strengthens Playson’s foothold in the country, where it is rapidly expanding its network of operator partners and solidifying its role as a key content provider in the region.
“Partnering with Betnacional is an important milestone for us in Brazil,” said Cristhian Zito, Head of LatAm at Playson.
“As a highly respected local brand with a deep understanding of its audience, we are confident our content will resonate strongly with its players. This launch reinforces our position in the market and our commitment to delivering engaging, high-performing games across Latin America.”

Pragmatic Play, a leading iGaming content provider, has rolled out Jelly Express, a vibrant new slot where a gummy bear conductor leads a locomotive through a colourful candy-coated world.
Set across 6×5 reels, the game delivers a lively experience filled with rewarding mechanics. Players can win by landing 8 to 12+ matching symbols anywhere on the grid, with base game payouts reaching up to 50x. Adding extra sweetness, candy train wilds boost wins with multipliers of up to 100x.
The excitement ramps up when three coin scatter symbols trigger the bonus round, offering players a choice between six different feature options. Each option provides a unique mix of free spins (up to 25) and wild multipliers (up to 100x), while a mystery pick adds an extra layer of unpredictability.
During the feature, landing an additional scatter can activate Super Free Spins, where wild multipliers are collected by the candy train above the reels. This cumulative multiplier is then applied to future wins involving wilds, unlocking a maximum win potential of up to 5,000x.
In selected markets, players can also take advantage of special bet options, including increased chances of triggering free spins, guaranteed wilds on every spin, or enhanced win potential with minimum 10x wild multipliers that stack during tumbles.
Jelly Express is the latest addition to Pragmatic Play’s growing portfolio.
