Think you’ve seen it all at iGaming conferences? Try your luck against the Lucifer himself.
On July 2–3, 2025, the gates of iGB Live in London will crack open — and out will step Hell Partners, taking over stand G22 with one unapologetically seducing invitation: outplay Lucifer and leave with more than bragging rights.

This isn’t a booth. It’s a lair.
A custom-built cave where fire meets flair, rules bend to desire, and the brave walk out with deals hotter than the drinks served at the bar. It’s where luck, wit, and charm will be put to the test — and only the most daring will earn a nod from Lucifer himself.

The Game: “Beat the Devil”

Five cards. One choice. No second chances.
Step into the fire and face five devilishly crafted mini-games — designed to test your reflexes, intuition, and sheer audacity. Choose a card. Accept the challenge. Win the round. Or don’t — but either way, you’ll have earned your place in Hell’s little black book.

But this isn’t just a game. It’s a key checkpoint in the masterfully orchestrated Lucky Media quest.
Survive the stand and you’ll stay in the running to win a MacBook or even a ticket to Wimbledon. Yes, seriously.

And if you think a Telegram chat can get you a better deal — think again.
The real power moves happen in person. At stand G22 on iGB London. With a drink in your hand and a smirk on your face.

Another stop on your checklist:
How about a HolyTraff collab photo booth styled like a retro phone box — for when you want to capture the exact moment you sealed the deal for premium traffic and a taste of Wimbledon flair.

Temptation Has a Name — And It’s G22

TESTA debuts TESTA Score, allowing operators to benchmark UX

TESTA, the crowd testing platform for the iGaming industry, has launched its innovative TESTA Score with CasinoCompare.ph, a Philippine-focused online casino affiliate—and the only platform exclusively listing PAGCOR-licensed online casinos.

TESTA Score is a new UX quality benchmark developed by TESTA that shines a light on online casino brands in markets with new regulatory compliance standards.

Using real testers with local devices, IDs and bank accounts, TESTA evaluates each operator’s performance across four key processes – registration, deposit, withdrawal and KYC.

Each process is scored against strict usability parameters such as the number of required input fields, page clicks, lead times for verification and fund arrival, as well as the number of KYC attempts required.

The total possible score is 100, divided across:

The TESTA Score provides objective, player-centric transparency in any market.

With local connectivity, device preferences and regulatory friction in mind, the scoring system reflects the real-world user journey and highlights where improvements are most needed.

This then provides a chance for operators to improve their key flows, especially KYC, and then apply for a re-test to update their published score.

CasinoCompare.ph becomes the first online casino affiliate to deploy TESTA Score, with six Philippine-licensed online casinos now ranked. The site is operated by AFFILI.ph whose aim is to set a new industry standards for transparency, trust, and player confidence.

The six sites include Casino Plus, Desk Game, FBM E.Motion, Bet88, PlayTime and Crazy Win.

While most operators performed well on the core user flows, the KYC process emerged as the main differentiator.

Operators that lacked a working KYC step at withdrawal automatically received a zero in that category, pulling down their overall TESTA Score significantly.

This is how they fared:

Casino Plus led the pack with a total score of 97/100, earning perfect marks in registration, withdrawal, and KYC, and only dropping points on deposit due to a single extra page click.

As well as accessing TESTA Score through their affiliate partners, operators can work directly with TESTA to determine their TESTA Score.

Chris Johnson, TESTA CMO, said: “Born out of frequent client requests for key processes testing, and competitor benchmarking, the TESTA Score measures the parts of the customer journey, outside of game play, that make or break player acquisition and retention.

“Operators can use their TESTA Score to understand where they stand out over their rivals and where there is a gap they need to close.

“It’s great to see that six Philippine-licensed casinos have already used TESTA Score to benchmark their UX and acquisition flows, and we look forward to working with more moving forward, both in the Philippines and other markets around the world.”
