IGT’s Lottomatica Launches Affiliate Programme with Income Access
New affiliate programme for Italy-facing lottomatica.it brand to be powered by Income Access platform
Montreal, QC. 2nd August 2017 – Lottomatica, the Rome-based gaming, lottery, iLottery and iGaming operator and a subsidiary of International Game Technology PLC (NYSE:IGT), has launched an affiliate programme for its Italian online gambling web portal lottomatica.it in partnership with Income Access, Paysafe Group’s marketing software provider. The new affiliate programme for the multi-vertical brand will be managed using the Income Access platform.
Licensed by Italian gambling regulator Agenzia delle Dogane e dei Monopoli (ADM), Lottomatica’s lottomatica.it web portal offers Italian players online sports-betting on local and international football matches as well as tennis, baseball, volleyball, hockey and other sporting events. The web portal also features live betting functionality.
In addition, lottomatica.it boasts an online casino with over 100 state-of-the-art branded and original slots from leading software providers, including The Big Easy, Treasures of the Pyramids, Guns N’ Roses, and Cowboys Go West. A wide range of table games, including live-dealer blackjack and roulette, diversify a casino that is also complemented by an array of online poker tournaments.
Lottomatica’s longstanding presence in the lottery space is strongly represented at lottomatica.it, which offers players an array of iLottery wagering options, including Lotto online, 10&Lotto online, and various online Instant Lotteries such as “Gratta e Vinci” (scratch and win).
Following the launch of the new lottomatica.it/affiliazione affiliate programme on the Income Access platform, which has won EGR’s ‘Affiliate Software’ B2B Award four times since 2013, affiliates will be able to promote this diverse brand. The new programme, which offers affiliates the flexibility of bespoke commission deals, is accompanied by a promotion in which all new depositing players referred by affiliates receive €10 in addition to the brand’s standard welcome bonuses.
Gianfranco Allocca, Head of Digital Product Development & Marketing at IGT, said: “Lottomatica parent company IGT has a longstanding and successful business relationship with Income Access, so the platform was a logical choice when we prepared to launch lottomatica.it’s affiliate programme. We look forward to using the platform’s sophisticated capabilities, and reporting and analytics suite to give a boost to our player acquisition via the affiliate channel.”
Lorenzo Pellegrino, CEO of Income Access and Digital Wallets at Paysafe, said: “We’re excited to further extend our partnership with Lottomatica for the launch of the lottomatica.it affiliate programme. Lottomatica has a very high brand profile in Italy, an iGaming market that is growing strongly and offers European affiliates an increasingly important revenue opportunity.”

LEONBET and Simon Msuva Continue the Journey with a Nationwide Media Tour Following The Msuva Story
Following the release of The Msuva Story documentary, LEONBET and its brand ambassador, Simon Msuva, are continuing the campaign with a nationwide media tour to share the footballer’s inspiring journey and encourage young Tanzanians to pursue their dreams with determination and confidence.
The media tour saw Msuva visit leading radio stations across Tanzania, where he discussed his football journey, the challenges he overcame, and the message behind the documentary. Through these conversations, LEONBET and Msuva encouraged young Tanzanians to believe in their ambitions, work hard, and never give up on their dreams.
The documentary chronicles Msuva’s rise from a young football enthusiast to one of Tanzania’s most recognisable professional players, highlighting the determination, discipline, and resilience that shaped his career.
“As someone who started with a dream, I want young people to know that every challenge can become an opportunity if you keep believing in yourself,” said Simon Msuva. “I hope my story inspires the next generation to pursue their goals with confidence and determination.”
As part of the campaign, LEONBET and Msuva also hosted a special community football event featuring local teams Taifa King (Temeke) and Wekewa FC (Kinondoni). Held at Mwembe Yanga Grounds, the friendly match brought together football, entertainment, and community engagement, with Simon Msuva attending as the guest of honour and meeting young fans throughout the day.
The initiative reflects LEONBET’s ongoing commitment to supporting sports development and creating opportunities that inspire young talent across Tanzania. Beyond sponsoring professional athletes and sporting initiatives, the company continues to invest in projects that strengthen local communities and promote positive role models.
Through The Msuva Story and the accompanying media tour, LEONBET and Simon Msuva hope to remind young Tanzanians of one simple message:
“Every dream is possible if you believe.”

ReferOn Wins “Best Affiliate Management Platform” at the iGB Affiliate Awards 2026
ReferOn has been named the Best Affiliate Management Platform at the prestigious iGB Affiliate Awards 2026, marking another major milestone in the company’s growth. Announced live at iGB LIVE, the recognition follows a year of relentless product innovation, customer growth, and a continued focus on simplifying affiliate operations.
Turning Complexity into Clarity
Managing high-volume affiliate programs requires processing millions of data points every day. ReferOn was built to eliminate that complexity through automation, real-time insights, and streamlined workflows.
This year also marked the introduction of Refie, ReferOn’s integrated UX layer. Instead of forcing affiliate managers to navigate complex backend data, Refie turns raw operational data into clear, actionable insights. From onboarding to daily performance tracking, it helps teams spend less time on administration and more time driving strategic growth.
Alex Bukin, CEO of ReferOn, commented: “Winning the iGB Affiliate Award is a remarkable achievement for our entire team. As affiliate programs grow, so does the complexity behind them. From day one, our ambition has been to remove that complexity, so operators can focus on growth instead of operational friction. This recognition reinforces our belief that great B2B technology should be simpler, more intuitive, easier to work with, and built around the people who use it”.
Having secured major industry awards over the past 18 months, — including ‘Affiliate System of the Year’ at AffPapa and ‘Best Affiliate Software’ at SiGMA — ReferOn looks ahead with a roadmap that remains focused on making affiliate management even more intelligent, transparent, and effortless. Our upcoming developments will continue to simplify complex workflows, expand AI-powered assistance, and provide operators with even greater visibility and control over their affiliate operations.

Kongebonus becomes first Norwegian affiliate to win Best Casino Affiliate at iGB Affiliate Awards 2026
Kongebonus has become the first Norwegian affiliate to win Best Casino Affiliate at the iGB Affiliate Awards 2026, a landmark recognition that names the independent Norwegian guide as the world’s leading casino affiliate for 2026.
The award was presented on 2 July during iGB L!VE London, where the iGB Affiliate Awards celebrated the affiliates, programmes, networks, suppliers and individuals helping to drive the iGaming sector forward.
iGB Affiliate described first-time contestant Kongebonus as a “Norwegian local hero”, noting that the platform claimed the award in a close race and ended Gambling.com Group’s two-year reign in the highly competitive category. Independent judges praised Kongebonus’ “super smart” approach, highlighting its combination of innovation, engaged player community, and strong editorial presence across Google News and the media.
The recognition reflects Kongebonus’ focus on detailed operator testing, transparent casino reviews, community-led content and player protection. The platform tests casinos with its own money before reviewing them, publishes its full methodology and continues to invest in responsible gambling resources, including practical guidance and support signposting for players.
David Nilsen, Editor-in-Chief at Kongebonus, said: “Winning Best Casino Affiliate at the iGB Affiliate Awards is a huge moment for Kongebonus and for everyone who has helped build the platform. To be recognised in a category alongside some of the biggest and most respected names in the affiliate industry is something we are incredibly proud of.
“I’ve spent more than ten years on the inside of this industry, and I’ve seen how big the gap can be between what a casino promises and what the player is actually left with. Closing that gap is the whole reason we test the way we do.
“What this award tells us is that being the most trusted guide matters more than being the biggest one, and that’s the only thing we’ve ever set out to build.”
