Blueprint’s enhanced Viz™ slot launches exclusively with Paddy Power Betfair
Jackpot King Deluxe added to classic branded title
Blueprint Gaming, the leading supplier of branded slots to the gaming industry, has enhanced its classic game Viz™ inspired by the popular comic magazine, with the new version launching exclusively with Paddy Power Betfair.
The original release marked Blueprint’s entry into the online market and has now been transformed into HTML5, including the exciting addition of the Jackpot King Deluxe progressive system that offers massive win potential.
Coinciding with Viz’s 40th anniversary, the revamped game retains all the crass from the popular hit including iconic characters Roger Mellie and Johnny Fartpants, allowing players to rediscover the timeless slot that first put Blueprint on the map over a decade ago.
During this 5×3 20-line slot, three Showtime Bonus symbols gain entry to the Big Deal round where players eliminate TVs for a free spins offer worth up to 50 spins.
Long-term Blueprint operator partner Paddy Power Betfair is the first to go live with the newly enhanced slot, which will soon be made available to the developer’s global operator network.
Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing and Relationships at Blueprint Gaming, said: “To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the UK’s much-loved adult comic magazine, we’ve put a fresh twist on the game we first launched in the online market some 10 years ago.
“Adding Jackpot King to the gameplay makes perfect sense, providing fans of the original release with an even greater thrill.”
Mike Phelan, Commercial Director at Paddy Power Gaming, said: “We are delighted to be the first operator to launch the new Viz™ slot on its 40th anniversary. With the addition of the Jackpot King and after last year’s £4m winner on Paddy Power, we know how popular these games are with customers. This year, we’re hoping to add another lucky customer into the Punting Hall of Fame and what better game to do it on than this branded slot!”

Betano partners Fundación Empate on adapted football program in Argentina
Betano says it will fund weekly training for 192 athletes with Down syndrome and support the FUT21 National Tournament pathway ahead of October.
Betano has partnered with Fundación Empate to launch an adapted football-friendly tournament in Argentina, as part of the operator’s “Desafiá tus límites” (Challenge Your Limits) corporate responsibility programme.
The company said the partnership will support 192 athletes with Down syndrome by funding weekly practices, while also providing operational resources to strengthen training in the run-up to the FUT21 National Tournament in October. Fundación Empate describes FUT21 as Argentina’s main futsal competition for athletes with Down syndrome, bringing together delegations from across the country.
Germán Laborda, President of Fundación Empate, said: “For us, this support means much more than financial aid. It is a concrete opportunity for our players to keep growing, training, and showcasing all their talent. Having companies like Betano get involved in real inclusion helps bring visibility to the enormous effort and commitment of each member of our foundation.”
Alvaro Ferreres, Betano Country Manager for Argentina, added: “At Betano, we understand that social responsibility means getting truly involved and supporting the people behind every story. Supporting the players of Fundación Empate means proving that a company can be an ally that drives opportunities, inclusion, and development through sports.”
Beyond athlete funding, Betano said it will develop Teacher Training Workshops for Inclusive Sports aimed at more than 800 sports professionals, including coaches, physical education teachers and physiotherapists, as well as teams for athletes with Down Syndrome. The company positioned the initiative as part of its broader adapted sports activity under “Desafiá tus límites”, which it said also includes support for Argentina’s national blind football team, Los Murciélagos (The Bats).

PropellerAds says Social Traffic lifts game registrations 34.5% in Nigeria test
In a seven-day Onclick campaign, Social Traffic delivered 23.3% of registrations from 17.3% of impressions, the company reports.
PropellerAds has published new user acquisition results from a seven-day game registration campaign in Nigeria, reporting that its “Social Traffic” segment outperformed overall traffic on registrations and revenue efficiency.
According to the company, Social Traffic represented 17.3% of total impressions (20,076 of 115,671) but delivered 23.3% of registrations (199 of 853) and 24.5% of revenue ($96.06 of $392.46). Registrations per 1,000 impressions rose to 9.91 for Social Traffic versus 7.37 campaign-wide, a 34.5% increase. Revenue per 1,000 impressions (RPM) increased to $4.78 versus $3.39, up 41%.
Social Traffic is a targeting subtype within PropellerAds’ Onclick/Popunder format. When enabled on the company’s Self-Service Platform (SSP), ads are served only in placements where a user arrived from a social network such as Facebook or Instagram immediately before landing on the publisher’s page.
PropellerAds attributed the performance gap to browsing context and user intent, arguing that users coming from social platforms are more likely to complete multi-step actions such as registration. Petros Sofroniou, Account Strategist at PropellerAds, said: “In highly competitive user acquisition environments, traffic quality is increasingly critical. In practice, Social Traffic helps advertisers reach users who are more engaged and willing to take action, thereby improving registration performance in campaigns.”
The company positioned the results against what it described as a rapidly expanding Nigerian games market, citing estimates of a $3.5 billion market with roughly 60 million active users and 61% year-over-year growth. PropellerAds said it recommends testing Social Traffic as a dedicated segment and, where results hold, splitting it into a separate campaign for clearer optimization signals; it also suggested using roughly 20× target CPA as a test budget and running tests for 36–48 hours, while noting performance can vary by market and product.
