Over 300 IBL players, coaches and officials have also been provided with a series of expert educational workshops, highlighting: the league’s rules around integrity, the personal consequences of match-fixing scandals and the dangers of sharing insider information.

“This collaboration is a proactive effort for the league to continue to safeguard the transparency and competitiveness of our competitions. Monitoring and education are vitally important to protecting the IBL and we’re pleased to be working with Genius Sports who are the trusted integrity partner to hundreds of sports leagues worldwide,” Junas Miradiarsyah, Chief Executive Officer of the Indonesian Basketball League, said.

Bede, the data-driven iGaming technology provider known for its market leading software and full-service platform solutions, has announced the launch of a proprietary Tournament feature that has the potential to completely revolutionise partners’ gamification options.

Created to provide a flexible and cost-effective solution for customers looking to engage their players via tournament and leaderboard promotions, the new feature makes it easy for operators to create their own custom contests without any of the limitations of normal provider-led offerings.

Whereas traditional tournament packages are typically tied to one provider – meaning operators can only incorporate games from a pre-defined line-up – Bede’s Tournaments offer a completely agnostic solution, allowing partners to have greater freedom and offer much more choice to their players.

The feature also alleviates the need for admins to learn provider-specific systems in order to set up their tournaments as they can simply create them in the centralised Bede back office, enabling them to take a more consistent approach and reduce the front-end work required to get them up and running.

Of course, all tournaments built via the Bede back-office can also be combined with any of the other services that are included in the company’s platform tool kit, meaning operators can easily create and automate prizes or view tournament history and performance data in the Player Account Manager (PAM).

From an end-user perspective, Bede Tournaments use APIs that make it simple for players to understand and check their current leaderboard position, creating an intuitive and highly immersive front-end experience that helps keep them engaged for the duration of every contest.

With these core product features working in tandem to drive user activity and increase customer satisfaction, Bede’s new Tournaments will change the way operators think about their gamification options and provide partners with a more dynamic way to incentivise players.

Colin Cole-Johnson, Chief Executive Officer at Bede Gaming, said: “With gamification features becoming an increasingly important part of operators’ engagement tool kits, our latest innovation makes it easy to create exciting tournaments that boost activity and truly appeal to players.

“Designed to address the drawbacks of traditional provider-led tournament offerings such as limited game choice and complicated technical set-up, our Tournaments will give operations teams the freedom and flexibility to create their own custom contests without the hassle of having to learn a new system each time. This way, they can pick the games and prizes they like, while also utilising our full suite of platform services to create an altogether more enjoyable experience.”

PAGCOR Exec: Evolving technologies pose threats to legal gaming industry

An official of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) said the local gaming industry must recognize that technological advances are fueling an unstable environment where illegal operators can thrive while legitimate businesses struggle.

Speaking at the inaugural Asia-Pacific Regulators’ Forum on Thursday, September 11, at the Newport World Resorts, PAGCOR Vice President for Human Resource and Development Group Dr. Angelito Domingo said a three-pronged gaming education framework can help address the problem.

“There are three forces – technology as the tool, the criminal divide as the motive, and social impact as the public outcry – that create a perfect storm which threatens the integrity of the legal gaming industry,” he said.

Dr. Domingo said PAGCOR is currently implementing a gaming education framework focused on player education, operator training, and public outreach to counter growing social concerns associated with illegal online gambling.

“This framework envisions stronger collaboration among gaming and financial regulators, licensed operators, law enforcement, non-government organizations, the community, and the players themselves,” he said.

Dr. Domingo noted that the exponential rise of online gaming in the Philippines is driven by the accessibility of technology and Filipinos’ heavy reliance on mobile devices.

“Also, a lot of people are not aware of the financial implications when they engage in gambling. They only realize the impact of what they did when it’s already too late. They could have done better by being educated at the onset,” he said.

“Player education should center on responsible play and awareness of gambling’s financial and psychological risks, which we are currently doing,” he said.

“Operator training, on the other hand, should involve mandatory certification to ensure that frontline staff can identify and respond to problem gamblers,” he said.

Public outreach, meanwhile, requires unified campaigns, clear messaging, and active collaboration with NGOs, financial regulators, and law enforcement agencies which PAGCOR is also presently doing, he said.
