CasinoCanada partners with FortuneJack to expand crypto casino coverage
CasinoCanada.com has partnered with FortuneJack crypto casino to increase FortuneJack’s visibility and drive traffic via CasinoCanada’s content channels in non-regulated Canadian markets.
Under the deal, CasinoCanada will create and publish informational content focused on FortuneJack’s features and gaming portfolio. The material will be integrated into CasinoCanada’s review and comparison sections, which the company said is intended to expand coverage and improve user navigation.
CasinoCanada is an online casino guide focused on the Canadian market and operated by SEOBROTHERS. Eugene Ravdin, Head of PR at SEOBROTHERS, said: “Our objective is to provide users with structured information about FortuneJack’s platform and support consistent traffic development. With crypto casinos rapidly growing in popularity and becoming an increasingly important segment of the iGaming industry, we see strong potential in this direction and aim to help users navigate it with clarity and confidence.”
FortuneJack, established in 2012, said it offers over 3,500 games, including more than 2,700 slots, from providers including Pragmatic Play, Yggdrasil, Betsoft Gaming, Red Tiger, GameArt, and PG Soft. The operator also lists up to 135 live casino games and betting across 50 sports. FortuneJack is operated by PlayWave SRL and is registered and licensed under Anjouan laws.
Sally Betanishvili, Brand Manager at FortuneJack, said: “At FortuneJack, Since 2014 our priority is staying at the forefront of the iGaming evolution by offering a premier crypto-gaming experience.

ReferOn adds crypto finance layer to automate affiliate payouts
ReferOn has launched a built-in crypto finance layer designed to automate affiliate payouts and centralise crypto payout workflows inside its platform. The company said the feature supports crypto payments through its licensed partners’ payment gateways and is available now.
ReferOn said the layer is intended to replace manual, fragmented finance processes with program funding, real-time visibility into funds, automated crypto payouts, and audit-ready transaction history with exports. The company is positioning the release at affiliate teams that manage high payout volumes and frequent reconciliation work.
The update introduces a dedicated finance page for each affiliate program, including program funding and balance visibility, integrated top-ups with deposit address management, and a transaction journal with filters, detail views, pagination, and CSV export. ReferOn also said the automated payout flow records conversion data (rate and amounts), syncs statuses, and creates transaction records instantly.
On controls, ReferOn said each automated payout requires explicit confirmations and 2FA before being triggered. The company added that the feature is built to support audit and compliance needs through traceable transaction logs and one-click CSV exports.
Vlad Bondarenko, Head of Product at ReferOn, commented: “In all honesty, manual crypto payments are a disaster waiting to happen. When teams are afraid of entering the wrong address, making a double payment, or organising ever-growing spreadsheets, the team environment turns conservative and reactive. Our new crypto finance layer eliminates this confusion by providing managers with a comprehensive, centralised hub that automates the manual via integrated payment partners. This feature isn’t about offering affiliates a fancy new payment method or automating for the sake of it, it’s about freeing you up to run a revamped financial operation.”

Boomerang Partners brought TIME TO WIN to a close with 57 teams having competed for exclusive AC Milan-related rewards
On March 31, Boomerang Partners concluded their exclusive affiliate tournament, TIME TO WIN. Top-performing affiliate teams competed for prizes and unique experiences linked to AC Milan, of which Boomerang is an Official Regional Partner
Participation metrics and performance results
Held from February 12 to March 31, the TIME TO WIN tournament brought together 57 affiliate teams. In total, they generated 1,611 sports FTDs across multiple brands within Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio. 40% of participants joined as new partners for this tournament.
Engagement levels varied across teams. 37% completed at least two tasks, while one team completed the full set of tasks.
Rossoneri Hub as the tournament’s central platform
All tournament activity was managed through the Rossoneri Hub – a dedicated platform developed as part of Boomerang Partners’ collaboration with AC Milan. During the tournament period, the Hub attracted 33,268 visitors. It served as the main entry point, hosting tasks and tracking participants’ progress.
A format built covering the full affiliate lifecycle
The structure of TIME TO WIN combined multiple aspects of affiliate activity within a unified platform. Participants completed tasks across five segments: performance, SMM, PR, brand surveys, and reviews. All of these contributed to their overall score.
The tasks were clearly defined, with fixed points awarded for each completed action:
- Generating new sports users for brands within Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio – 10 points for each FTD
- Completing the brand survey – 25 points
- Contributing expert commentary as part of PR activities – 30 points
- Participating in a dedicated SMM challenge – 25 points
- Leaving a review on a selected platform – 20 points
The brand survey became the most popular task, while creative mechanics also played a role, including an AI-based challenge that resulted in 17 AC Milan kit concepts created by participants
AC Milan partnership as a value driver
A defining element of TIME TO WIN was its integration with AC Milan. All rewards were directly tied to the Club. This made the tournament more than a standard incentive program.
Participation gave affiliates access to experiences that reflect the level of the Boomerang Partners and AC Milan partnership – from merch packs and signed jerseys to matchday experiences and behind-the-scenes opportunities. These rewards cannot be replicated outside a top-tier football collaboration. They are designed as premium experiences.
Prize structure and winners
Winners will be determined across five prize tiers, each unlocked by reaching specific point thresholds. Notably, three teams (…) surpassed the 750-point threshold, qualifying for the top-tier experiences.
The prize structure included:
- Prize 1 (150 points): TIME TO WIN Merch Pack for a team of five (3–5 sets)
- Prize 2 (250 points): AC Milan official jerseys signed by players (five jerseys per set – 3–5 sets)
- Prize 3 (350 points): A trip to the AC Milan v Cagliari match for five people (one set)
- Prize 4 (550 points): A trip to the AC Milan v Juventus match, including pre-match access, for five people (one set)
- Prize 5 (750 points): A trip to Milanello Sports Center, the heart of AC Milan, for five people (two sets)
In total, 15 partner representatives will attend the AC Milan v Juventus match. The main prize includes one winning team of up to five participants, while additional attendees will join through the Milanello experience.
To support this activation, Boomerang Partners expanded its ticket allocation based on demand. The company increased premium tickets by 300% and total ticket volume by 212% compared to the standard quota.
Anton Eshtokin, Chief Marketing Officer at Boomerang Partners, commented: “TIME TO WIN delivered exactly what we set out to achieve, bringing partners into an active phase at the right moment of the sports season and showing how teams performed under the same conditions.
The integration with AC Milan added a different layer to the tournament. The prizes were experiences tied directly to the Club – something affiliates don’t typically get through standard formats.
At the same time, the results carry into the third season of Golden Boomerang Awards, where the focus shifts to performance over time. This continuity is key to how we structure competition.”
From TIME TO WIN to Golden Boomerang Awards 2026
TIME TO WIN was designed as an entry point into a broader competitive framework. Participants who reached the 100-point threshold received bonus points toward the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026. The annual affiliate tournament, organized by Boomerang Partners, officially launched on April 3, marking the start of its third season
This year’s competition is built around the “Beyond the Moment” concept, reflecting a shift from short-term results to sustained performance over time. Rather than rewarding isolated spikes, the format emphasizes consistency, strategic execution, and the ability to remain competitive throughout the entire competition period. Further participation details are available on the official GBA 2026 website.
