This week's #CasinoBeatsDigest: Featuring Star Entertainment, Blueprint Gaming, The latest Eilers-Fantini report and much more!

Push Gaming is expanding the reach of its slots content by partnering with Slots Temple, supporting the latter’s real-money UK casino launch. 

Betsson enjoyed a positive start to 2024, fuelled by growth of the firm's casino engagement.

“We’ve always been forced initially to make sure that we did things in efficient ways, because there was no daddy to come around and help us with the bills, if you couldn’t make ends meet. There’s been ups and downs but it has been a trip that has gone very well for us.” It was great to hear from EveryMatrix CEO Ebbe Groes, who discussed the potential of various global markets and how the firm has built its DNA over many years.

"Understanding player preferences is key. Blueprint tailors content by incorporating themes and characters that resonate with the Italian audience. In keeping with their success in other countries, evergreen games such as Wolf Legend and Bison Rising continue to return strong numbers, while most Blueprint-developed Megaways games and Jackpot King-connected titles are always a hit." Blueprint Gaming Ltd.’s Country Manager Italia Andrea Luca Migliozzi spoke to CasinoBeats about how the online casino supplier is targeting Italy as a key market outside of its UK core. 

The EGBA has revealed its belief that the changes will strengthen the EU’s approach to tackling money laundering and “benefit online gambling operators by standardising AML rules and reporting requirements across member states”.

Soft2Bet has launched its CampoBet brand for mobile and desktop users in Denmark. Yoel Zuckerberg, Chief Product Officer and spokesperson for CampoBet, commented: “CampoBet.dk is an innovative online platform that offers a comprehensive betting experience and we are delighted to introduce it to our Danish customers."

"We’ve harnessed AI technology across multiple facets of our operations, including customer support chats, content creation, marketing campaigns, player protection initiatives and software development processes. For instance, we’ve integrated Copilot, an AI tool developed by GitHub and OpenAI, into our workflows." Ahead of the CasinoBeats Summit in Malta, we spoke to Casumo's Chief Technology Officer, Cristina Turbatu as she analysed the significant potential of AI when it comes to the gaming sector. 

Evolution enjoyed a positive start to 2024 as the firm was bolstered by growth within the Asian and North American markets. The firm's CEO Martin Carlesund stated: “Revenue from Live Casino increased by 19.8 per cent year-on-year and, compared to the previous quarter, we added €25.7m in revenue. Although a strong start to the new year, much remains to be done to fully leverage our position in the market and serve the underlying demand.”

Svenska Spel has posted Q1 revenue decline following the closure of Casino Cosmopol.
