Amusnet marked a defining moment at ICE 2026 by combining a strong exhibition presence with the kickoff of its 10th-anniversary celebration. The company’s participation became both a showcase of its latest achievements and a reflection on a journey shaped by ambition, resilience and continuous evolution.

From the exhibition’s opening day, the Amusnet stand attracted sustained attention from operators, partners and industry professionals. The atmosphere blended forward-looking energy with a sense of celebration, further amplified by a series of special on-stand activities and high-profile moments that turned the Amusnet space into one of the most dynamic meeting points at the show.

The Landmark Award recognised Amusnet’s decade-long industry contribution, while the presence of football legend Hristo Stoichkov drew significant interest and engagement from attendees. Together with dedicated anniversary celebrations marking ten years of growth, these moments reinforced Amusnet’s expanding global presence and strengthened its leadership position within the industry.

“We grew because we never settled. Each new product, each new market, each new partnership helped us evolve. What excites me most is that even today, ten years later, we continue to evolve with the same passion and commitment we had at the very beginning,” said Ivo Georgiev, CEO of Amusnet.

A Decade of Progress, a Future Built on Growth

ICE provided the ideal stage for Amusnet to demonstrate how far the brand has come and where it is headed next. Visitors explored the company’s latest game releases and product enhancements, all designed with strong visual identity, engaging mechanics, and performance-driven features tailored for diverse markets and player profiles.

Operators responded particularly positively to Amusnet’s series-led slot development, highlighting the balance between recognisable gameplay structures and innovative feature variations. Titles featuring Buy Bonus options, multi-pot mechanics and faster game cycles were praised for supporting stronger engagement and retention, while enabling scalable content strategies across multiple jurisdictions.

The Amusnet’s Live Casino portfolio also generated strong feedback throughout the event. Partners highlighted the high production standards, immersive themes, and entertainment-driven formats, noting the value of live titles that combine visual impact with reliable performance and engagement.

The showcase was further strengthened by Amusnet’s Land-based portfolio, which attracted strong interest from casino operators and venue representatives. Premium solutions such as the Type S VIP model, which premiered at the event, flexible configuration options, and proven and new jackpot systems, such as Golden Coin Link, were recognised for their ability to support diverse casino floor strategies. Operators responded positively to the combination of modern hardware, intuitive user interfaces, and a broad in-house game selection designed to appeal to multiple player segments.

In addition, Amusnet’s Bonus Platform drew significant attention as a key driver of engagement and retention across both online and live environments. Operators highlighted the flexibility of the promotional tools, including Free Spins, Buy Bonus features, time-based mechanics and bet-level reward options, which enable tailored player journeys and more dynamic campaign execution. The platform’s adaptability was recognised as a valuable asset for supporting personalised promotions while maintaining operational control across different markets.

Together, all solutions underlined Amusnet’s evolution into a fully integrated, multi-vertical provider, reinforcing the company’s long-term growth strategy and its commitment to delivering scalable, performance-oriented solutions for partners worldwide.

Engagement Beyond the Products

In addition to its product showcase, Amusnet created a vibrant and engaging stand experience that drew consistent foot traffic throughout ICE. Special guest appearances, including football legend Hristo Stoichkov, generated significant attention and provided memorable moments for visitors, strengthening the emotional connection to the brand and reinforcing its broad appeal beyond the gaming floor.

Interactive activities, live presentations and informal networking moments further enhanced engagement, encouraging longer stand visits and deeper conversations with partners and prospective clients alike.

Driving Deals, Building the Future

Beyond the increased visibility, ICE served as a powerful platform for business development. The Amusnet team held high-level meetings with existing partners and new prospects, exchanging insights on future opportunities, market expansion and product roadmaps.

These conversations confirmed Amusnet’s ability to align product portfolio with real-world business objectives. The strong interest translated into valuable leads and promising partnerships, reinforcing ICE’s role as a key driver of Amusnet’s ongoing commercial momentum.

Celebrating the Past, Confidently Shaping the Future

Amusnet’s 10th anniversary added a deeper emotional layer to its ICE participation, transforming the exhibition into a moment of reflection and renewed motivation. The milestone highlighted not only the company’s achievements but also the people, partnerships, and shared successes that have defined its path.

With a successful ICE behind it, Amusnet now looks ahead with confidence, focused on innovation, expansion and delivering lasting value for partners and players alike, as it enters its second decade with ambition and momentum.

GR8 Tech has officially unveiled its Crypto Turnkey solution, a comprehensive platform designed to give iGaming operators a modern, multi-wallet infrastructure for global expansion. By integrating native multi-currency support from day one, the solution eliminates the need for third-party crypto vendors and complex technical integrations.

According to Denys Parkhomenko, CPO at GR8 Tech, the shift toward crypto is no longer optional for operators looking to dominate.

“Industry data shows crypto players deposit 35-50% more and bet with 40-60% higher frequency than traditional players,” says Parkhomenko. “The operators winning their markets are the ones acting on that data now, not waiting. We built Crypto Turnkey to make that move simple.”

Eliminating Payment Provider Bottlenecks

One of the most significant hurdles for modern iGaming businesses is the dependency on traditional payment providers. Regulatory hurdles or provider outages can delay launches or halt active businesses.

Crypto Turnkey removes these bottlenecks, allowing for:

• Faster Market Entry: Go live quickly without waiting for lengthy traditional payment approvals.

• Operational Stability: Payment uptime is controlled by the operator, ensuring a 24/7 uninterrupted revenue flow.

• Full Compliance: The platform supports over 15 popular cryptocurrencies (including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and USDT) while maintaining strict KYC and responsible gambling standards through existing GR8 Tech modules.

Designed for the VIP Experience

High-stakes players are the lifeblood of the industry. In 2025, VIP players accounted for 47% of total turnover across GR8 Tech’s verticals. These users increasingly demand the privacy, speed, and high transaction limits that only blockchain can provide.

The Crypto Turnkey multi-wallet system provides the flexibility these premium segments expect:

• Single Account, Multiple Currencies: Players can hold and switch between currencies instantly.

• No Conversion Friction: Deposit and withdraw in crypto without losing value to unnecessary exchange fees.

• Real-time Calculations: For games requiring fiat denominations, the system automatically handles balance segregation and exchange rate calculations.

Lower Fees and Zero Chargeback Risks

The economic advantages of the Crypto Turnkey solution are clear. While traditional fiat transactions typically cost between 2.5% and 5%, GR8 Tech’s solution slashes these costs to approximately 0.5%.

Furthermore, because blockchain transactions are irreversible, operators can say goodbye to chargeback fraud and the administrative nightmare of dispute management. Settlement times are also reduced from the standard 3-5 business days to just 10-30 minutes.

The Platform for Champions

When combined with the broader GR8 Tech ecosystem—including AI-driven personalization, advanced CRM tools, and geo-specific “Champion setups”—the Crypto Turnkey solution becomes a powerful engine for maximizing player lifetime value.

The solution is now available globally. New operators can deploy it as a complete turnkey package, while existing GR8 Tech clients can activate crypto capabilities without any additional technical integration.
