Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

VIXIO GamblingCompliance has announced that the recipient of the Global Regulatory Award for Compliance Lifetime Achievement will be Paul Burns, CEO and president of the Canadian Gaming Association.

The Compliance Lifetime Achievement Special Award, sponsored this year by BetConstruct, recognises the achievements of an individual who has been involved in the gambling industry for many years and whose input to the advancement of the culture of compliance and regulatory standards within the industry has been outstanding.

Paul Burns was instrumental in establishing the Canadian Gaming Association (CGA) in 2005, initially as its vice president. Under his leadership, the association grew to include the Canadian industry’s leading operators, manufacturers, and suppliers. Paul was appointed the CGA’s president and CEO in 2018.

Through the CGA, Paul Burns has been responsible for the development of industry-wide research and programmes, including the release of the most comprehensive study on the economic impact of gaming in Canada. Most recently, Paul led the CGA’s advocacy efforts in support of the repeal of Canada’s federal prohibition on single-event sports wagering, which was achieved when legislation was approved in parliament in June 2021, as well as the landmark opening of Ontario’s internet gaming market, which was launched in April 2022.

Paul Burns said: “I would like to thank VIXO and the Global Regulatory Awards judges for honouring me as this year’s recipient of the Compliance Lifetime Achievement Award. I have had the pleasure and privilege of working with exceptionally talented gaming industry professionals and regulators across Canada throughout my career, and collectively we have worked – and continue to work – to advance the evolution of Canada’s gaming industry. In the past two years, we have seen the results of years of effort to modernize Canada’s sports betting laws as well as Ontario’s launch of Canada’s first regulated iGaming market. I share this honour with everyone who contributed to these milestone achievements and look forward to helping make Canada’s largest entertainment industry one of the best in the world.”

James Kilsby, Chief Analyst and VP Americas, VIXIO said: “Paul Burns is a very worthy winner of the VIXIO GamblingCompliance Global Regulatory Awards lifetime achievement category for 2022 – a year that saw the opening of Ontario’s competitive market for online gambling and the first full year of legal single-event sports betting since the amendment made to the Canadian federal Criminal Code last summer. It is well recognised within the industry that Paul and the Canadian Gaming Association have played an instrumental role in both of these historic events for Canada’s broader gambling market, neither of which occurred overnight but were instead the fruits of many, many years of careful advocacy on the part of Paul, his colleagues and CGA members. On behalf of VIXIO, I would like to congratulate Paul on his deserved recognition and thank our independent panel of judges for their careful consideration of this award.”

Rising star iGaming supplier Logifuture has partnered with Sportradar to integrate its flagship virtual product, Zoom Soccer, into Sportradar’s innovative OneFeed ecosystem — enhancing its portfolio with a fully immersive, always-on football experience.

Zoom Soccer seamlessly integrates into sportsbooks, delivering a continuous RNG-based feed of ultra-realistic football events 24/7. Sections are always filled with engaging football content, providing operators with a reliable solution during periods when Tier-1 or Tier-2 real football events are scarce or not taking place.

Recreating the world’s most popular leagues — including Zoom EPL, Zoom La Liga, Zoom Serie A & more — the product delivers 30,000+ additional monthly events for players to enjoy. Each match is modelled on real-world team strengths and league dynamics, ensuring authentic, data-driven outcomes that mirror genuine football excitement.

Fully GLI-certified, Zoom Soccer has proven to boost sportsbook turnover by up to 30%, helping operators reduce the volatility of sportsbook revenues and maintain consistent engagement throughout the year.

By joining Sportradar’s OneFeed — a hub that aggregates multiple feed providers into a single plug-and-play solution — Zoom Soccer becomes instantly accessible to Sportradar’s global network of operators, bypassing complex integration processes and accelerating time to market.

Niccolò Cassettari, Chief Business Development Officer at Logifuture, said: “Zoom Soccer is a great addition for Sportradar’s clients, allowing them to deliver engaging football content 24/7. Users are no longer limited by the scarcity of Tier-1 events — we’ve recreated the most popular leagues, ensuring the same betting experience as real matches. All this, powered by RNG logic, helps fight the volatility of sportsbook revenues and ensures steady returns for our partners.

“This integration perfectly aligns with Logifuture’s vision of creating innovative, scalable solutions that keep sportsbooks active around the clock. We’re thrilled to bring Zoom Soccer to Sportradar’s OneFeed and confident it will become a key driver of engagement and growth across multiple markets.”

Boutique games studio Playbook Fusion has partnered with BetComply to bring an entirely new genre of betting to regulated markets for the very first time.

The partnership has already seen Playbook Football™, a real money virtual football management betting game, go live in the UK with brands including Ladbrokes and LiveScore Bet under a UKGC licence and eCogra certification.

The product has also recently launched in Brazil with Superbet, the Netherlands with Bingoal and Nigeria with LiveScore Bet.

The unique nature of the product meant that Playbook Fusion turned to BetComply for a deeper level of compliance understanding than is usually required by a standard slots studio or sportsbook platform.

BetComply will continue to support Playbook Fusion in the rollout of Playbook Football™ and future products to other regulated jurisdictions.

Steve Rogers, founder and CEO of Playbook Fusion, said: “Working with BetComply has been a smooth and productive experience. Their team quickly understood our business goals and provided clear, actionable guidance throughout the process. They combine deep regulatory insight with a practical mindset, which has been especially valuable as we continue to roll out our products into new markets. It’s been great having them as a steady partner along the way.”

Mike de Graaff, Chief Compliance Officer at BetComply, said: “We’re firm believers that good regulation doesn’t need to stunt product innovation. By engaging early and taking compliance seriously, Playbook Fusion has shown how completely new products can move quickly and successfully through regulatory processes. We’re proud to support their expansion, and we’re looking forward to helping them bring the game to more regulated markets worldwide.”
