PRAGMATIC PLAY FLIPS THE SCRIPT WITH FUTURISTIC RISE OF GIZA POWERNUDGE™

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, is introducing audiences to its new innovative mechanic in their latest release, Rise of Giza PowerNudge
Ancient Egypt is pushed into the digital era with a new look and sound in the provider’s latest slot, headlined by a new high-tech mechanic called PowerNudge, which serves as an intricate alternative to a cascading win system and features in all phases of the game.
The PowerNudge feature is triggered with every winning combination, which causes reels that make up the winning combination to ‘nudge’ down one position, creating new opportunities for winning combinations.
The game also features a Scarab – the symbol of immortality and resurrection – as the Scatter symbol, which triggers the Free Spins mode when three or more land on the reels.
Winning combinations can start from any reel, and players are awarded eight free spins for three symbols, 10 for four, 12 for five and so on. There’s no limit on the number of free spins that can be awarded in this mode, and a guaranteed payout of 5x the stake will be awarded each time the Free Spins mode is triggered.
The PowerNudge feature also comes into play here, operating in the Free Spins mode by increasing the multiplier by 1x after every nudge or subsequent free spin.
In some jurisdictions, it is possible to purchase the Free Spins mode for a cost of 80x the bet, producing a spin consisting of at least three Scatter symbols.
Rise of Giza PowerNudge, 5 Lions Megaways and a host of other HTML5 titles.
Yossi Barzely, Chief Business Development Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “We are delighted to introduce PowerNudge to one of our titles for the very first time, which has helped us design a truly bespoke gaming experience for our audiences.

PTSB Launches ln-app Voluntary Gambling Block to Support Customer Financial Wellbeing

PTSB has launched a digital voluntary block for customers who wish to stop card transactions involving gambling merchants. This is an important initiative in promoting financial wellbeing and supporting customers in managing gambling-related harm.
The new feature allows PTSB customers to block debit and credit card transactions that are classified as gambling instantly through their PTSB App.
If customers choose to remove the block, a 48-hour impulse delay period will apply before gambling transactions can resume.
Along with betting sites, the block also covers online casinos, poker sites and lottery websites.
An analysis of PTSB banking data from January to June 2025 shows:
• 91% of gambling spend was completed online.
• 80% of gambling spend was completed by men, versus 20% completed by women.
• The age group with the highest spend on gambling sites for both men and women is 40-49.
• 2% of those who gambled in June 2025 spent over €1000, which falls into the threshold of problem gambling, according to ESRI Research.
ESRI research found that there are 130,000 adults with problem gambling in Ireland. There is also growing evidence that gambling offers lure people to bet more, particularly those at risk of problem gambling.
As part of the Bank’s 2025-2027 Sustainability launched earlier this year, PTSB is committed to playing its part in supporting customers with their financial wellbeing and has a continued focus on improving the financial literacy of its customers through education, inclusion supports and the delivery of digital tools. This includes raising awareness of the risks associated with problem gambling and providing support for those affected.
PTSB also has a dedicated Enhanced Customer Support team within their Contact Centre should customers need to access this support via phone.
Patrick Farrell, PTSB’s Retail Banking Officer, said: “At PTSB, the safety and welfare of our customers is of the utmost importance, and we’re committed to ensuring our customers have the knowledge and confidence to make informed financial decisions and plan for their future.
“Problem gambling is increasingly becoming a societal issue that warrants the closest attention, as it can have hugely damaging implications for individuals, their families and loved ones. We know from ESRI research that one in 30 adults in Ireland suffers from problem gambling, but worryingly a further 279,000 adults show moderate evidence of it. That’s why we have introduced this voluntary gambling block in-app so that it is accessible when our customers need it most.”
Oisín McConville of GamblingCare.ie said: “I am delighted that PTSB has introduced a Gambling Block feature to their app. Having this service available to customers digitally will make a huge difference as it is accessible to them on the go, which is particularly important given the prevalence and availability of online gambling.
“Initiatives like this from PTSB are crucial in supporting those who experience problem gambling and really complement the support services GamblingCare offers in managing gambling-related harm.”
