INCENTIVE GAMES AND BET365 LAUNCH TOURNAMENT CHALLENGE GAME AHEAD OF FOOTBALL SEASON
In partnership with globally renowned online gambling operator bet365, leading B2B games provider Incentive Games has developed a new game ahead of the upcoming European football season.
Launching ahead of Matchday One on 16th September, Tournament Challenge is the latest addition to bet365’s popular portfolio of free-to-play titles, crafted by the team at Incentive Games. Designed to be accessible and competitive, the game captures the thrill of tournament football and keeps fans coming back throughout the league.
The Tournament Challenge puts players right at the heart of the action. Before each match, fans must predict the outcome (win, lose or draw) of selected matches and users can edit their predictions at any time for matches that haven’t yet kicked off.
Each correct pick earns players points based on a 10-point stake multiplied by the odds of the selected outcome. For example, if the odds are 2.50 on the customer’s pick, they will receive 25 points. If the odds are 2.90 they will receive 29 points. Or if they are 3.70 they will receive 37 points etc.
The more games users get right, the higher they climb on the weekly matchday leader board and the overall season long leader board. There are prizes for ten individual game weeks with players competing for a matchday jackpot of £20,000 and a massive £50,000 overall grand prize.
John Gordon, CEO at Incentive Games said, “Tournament football always delivers unforgettable moments, and we wanted to create a game that captures that same energy. We’re proud to be working alongside the brilliant bet365 team again to make that happen. Tournament Challenge is designed to give football fans a new way to test their knowledge and feel even closer to the action, with simple, intuitive gameplay that makes every match even more exciting.”
The launch of Tournament Challenge marks another step forward in the partnership between Incentive Games and bet365, showcasing how data-driven design and tailored gameplay can bring fans closer to the sport they love.
A bet365 spokesperson said: “With the return of the biggest and best matches in European club football, we’re delighted to provide our customers with an innovative free-to-play predictor game.
“Thank you to the team at Incentive Games for providing a product that proves again, whatever the moment, it’s Never Ordinary with bet365.”

Cool Bus Shelter
The UAE Lottery backs Cool Bus Shelter initiative for outdoor workers
The UAE Lottery has partnered with SmartLife Foundation to support outdoor workers during the UAE summer, backing the Cool Bus Shelter initiative in Abu Dhabi on July 20, 2026.
The programme aligns with the UAE’s Midday Break rules, which require outdoor work to stop between 12:30 PM and 3:00 PM during peak heat. As part of the initiative, air-conditioned buses were stationed near labour sites to provide workers a place to rest before returning outdoors.
Volunteers from The UAE Lottery and SmartLife Foundation provided cold towels, cold water and drinks, according to the organisations. Workers also received portable rechargeable neck fans intended to provide additional cooling after the break.
Suzan Kazzi, Associate Director – Corporate Social Responsibility at Momentum- The UAE Lottery, said: “Outdoor workers are the backbone of our cities’ urban development, and initiatives like the Cool Bus Shelter ensure they receive the care and recognition they deserve during the most challenging months of the year. This is our small way of saying thank you and reminding them that their wellbeing truly matters”.
Abhijeet Oak, Vice President at SmartLife Foundation, added: “At SmartLife Foundation, we believe that protecting the wellbeing of outdoor workforce is a shared responsibility. Through the Cool Bus Shelter initiative, we are proud to collaborate with organizations such as The UAE Lottery and other community partners to create moments of comfort, appreciation and human connection that leave a lasting impact”.
