King Billy Casino, a proud holder of MGA license

Published

on

 

One of the world’s most beautiful archipelagos (yes, Malta is not just one island). Set of epic films and TV shows, like Troy, Gladiator and Game of Thrones. A walker’s paradise during almost all seasons of the year, with stunning views from dramatic cliff edges. Fantastic cuisine. Picturesque capital Valetta.

And yet, when it comes to online gaming, there is something more in Malta than the above, something that has turned it into the Mecca of the gambling world. We are talking of course about the Malta Gaming Authority which has become the world’s preferred remote gaming regulator. Don’t get us wrong Curacao license holders, your license is still decent, but Malta is in a league of its own.

How have the Malta Gaming Authority done it? By offering a solid legal framework for service providers, operators and online players. Any company which wishes to obtain the coveted MGA gambling license has to meet a number of strict criteria, ranging from ownership structure and credibility to integrity and competence.

Which brings us to the happy news from the King Billy Kingdom. It was due and it is now a fact, that King Billy Casino, owner of several impressive industry distinctions, awards and trophies in less than 3 years of operations is now also a proud holder of the MGA license.

Good news from the Kingdom, so we reached out to a few key persons of the organization for statements. King Billy Casino CEO Volodymyr Harkusha (and “First Lord” of the Kingdom) explains: “At King Billy Casino, we view our course, so far, as a journey where the destination can only be reached by taking methodical steps. One of these steps, actually a giant leap for us, is our MGA license.”

So, what has changed for King Billy Casino with the new license? Harkusha points out “You know, even before the MGA license, we were implementing a modus operandi at King Billy Casino, exactly as if we had a Malta license. This means a policy of full transparency. We expect that combining this policy with the Malta regulations will make the relationship with our players even more reliable, trustworthy and secure.”

And what about new opportunities? Ruslan Legenzov, King Billy Casino Head of Affiliates (and “Lord of Affiliates” of the Kingdom) shares his thoughts with us: “Plenty of opportunities, which we will try to capitalize at a maximum level. New payment systems, like Trustly, the “darling” PSP of European players will now be available at King Billy, along with tax-free transactions.

Furthermore, our King Billy Casino MGA site will feature a brand new Loyalty Program with a refined bonus system and no less than 7 levels: Citizen, Baron, Earl, Marquess, Duke, Prince, and finally King, next to King Billy himself. Female titles apply too for ladies, so we invite everyone, above 18 years of age for a ride.”

The King Billy Casino CEO compared the casino’s course to a journey. So, what is the destination of the journey? Volodymyr smiles “We are trying to make it the most interesting type of journey – a never ending one!”

We must admit that we like this way of thinking, and for the time being we reckon that “His Majesty King Billy and his faithful servants” could use some rest on this long journey. And what best place to rest than Malta?

MGA, the Malta Gaming Authority, is a Malta-based Gaming Control Board. Its mission, since its inception in 2001, is based on the principle of having a transparent and fair gaming sector in Malta, to safeguard against corruption and crime and offer protection to vulnerable players and minors.

King Billy Casino is a new generation online casino, available in 6 languages (English, German, Russian, Finnish, Norwegian and Japanese) with an impressive record in awards and a remarkable variety of games and features. King Billy has prioritized the creation of a superb user experience focusing on the myth of King Billy and his Kingdom and treats all players with the specialness they deserve.

Online Slots beyond 2024: What does the future bring?

Published

on

As we move beyond 2024, the online gambling world is set to evolve rapidly, and slots online are no exception. With advancements in technology and changing player preferences, the future of online slots promises to be more exciting and immersive than ever. But what exactly can we expect from this ever-growing industry in the years to come? In this article, we’ll explore some of the key trends and innovations that could shape the future of slots online, from enhanced graphics and gamification to blockchain integration and beyond.

The Rise of Immersive Gameplay

One of the most noticeable trends that will likely define the future of slots online is the continued emphasis on immersive gameplay. Developers are already using advanced 3D graphics, VR (virtual reality), and AR (augmented reality) technologies to create more engaging gaming experiences. As technology continues to improve, we can expect future online slot games to offer even more realistic environments and interactive elements.

For instance, virtual reality slots may soon allow players to feel like they are sitting in a real-life casino, interacting with other players and the environment around them. This shift toward immersion will enhance the player experience, making slots online more than just a spinning reel game, but a fully interactive experience.

Gamification and Social Features

Another major trend set to influence the future of slots online is the gamification of gameplay. More and more online casinos are incorporating elements of traditional video games into their slot offerings, creating missions, challenges, and reward systems to keep players engaged. This approach is particularly appealing to younger generations who seek a more dynamic and competitive experience.

In addition to gamification, social features are becoming increasingly important. Multiplayer slots, leaderboards, and in-game chat options will likely become standard in many future online slots. These elements not only enhance engagement but also foster a sense of community among players, making the gaming experience more social and enjoyable.

Blockchain and Cryptocurrency Integration

As the popularity of cryptocurrencies continues to grow, we can expect more online casinos to adopt blockchain technology and cryptocurrency payments. Blockchain offers benefits such as transparency, security, and decentralization, making it an attractive option for both players and operators. In the future, slots online could integrate blockchain to offer provably fair games, where the outcome of each spin is verifiable by players themselves.

Moreover, cryptocurrency payments will allow for faster transactions and reduced fees, enhancing the overall convenience for players. As more casinos begin to accept Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, this trend will likely become a key component of the future of online gambling.

Personalized Gaming Experiences

Another innovation we can expect to see in the future of slots online is the rise of personalized gaming experiences. Using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, casinos and game developers will be able to tailor the gaming experience to each player’s preferences and behavior. This could include customized bonuses, personalized game suggestions, and even tailored in-game features designed to enhance individual enjoyment.

This personalization improves player satisfaction and increases engagement, making it more likely that players will return for future sessions. As AI technology continues to develop, expect to see more casinos offering highly personalized gaming experiences.

The future of slots online promises to be filled with technological advancements and innovations designed to create more immersive, engaging, and secure experiences for players. From the rise of virtual reality and gamification to the integration of blockchain technology and personalized gameplay, online slots are set to evolve in exciting ways. As these changes unfold, players can look forward to a richer and more dynamic gaming experience, making slots online a truly next-level form of entertainment beyond 2024.

How live streaming impacts sports betting

Published

on

The rise of live streaming has significantly impacted the world of Sports betting, offering bettors new ways to engage with their favorite sports in real-time. As technology continues to evolve, live streaming is becoming a key component of the online betting experience, allowing users to follow games and events directly on betting platforms. This development has transformed how people place bets, especially when it comes to in-play betting, where decisions are made as the game unfolds. In this article, we will explore the various ways live streaming is influencing sports betting and how it benefits both bettors and betting platforms.

Real-Time Engagement

One of the most obvious benefits of live streaming for Sports betting is the ability to watch events in real-time without the need for an external service, like cable TV or separate streaming platforms. Bettors can follow the action as it happens, which adds a whole new level of excitement and engagement. This direct access to live events allows bettors to make informed decisions based on the current gameplay, team performance, and any unexpected developments, such as injuries or weather conditions.

This instant connection to live games is especially valuable for in-play betting, where odds and outcomes can change within seconds. For example, during a football match, a team scoring an unexpected goal might shift the odds dramatically, providing an opportunity for bettors to adjust their strategies accordingly. This dynamic environment, made possible by live streaming, enhances the thrill of sports betting, making it more interactive and immersive.

Enhanced In-Play Betting

Live streaming has revolutionized in-play or live betting, which has become one of the fastest-growing segments in the sports betting industry. The ability to watch the game live while placing bets as events unfold allows bettors to react in real-time. This creates a more strategic betting experience, where users can capitalize on momentary shifts in the game’s momentum.

For example, in tennis, a player who is visibly fatigued or struggling with an injury might see their chances of winning decrease. Bettors who are watching live can seize this opportunity to place bets that reflect the changing conditions of the match. Without live streaming, bettors would have to rely on delayed updates, which could result in missed opportunities or less accurate bets.

Increased Transparency and Trust

Live streaming also helps to build trust between the Sports betting platform and its users. In a world where transparency is critical, allowing bettors to watch the action as it happens ensures they are not relying on delayed or inaccurate data. This transparency makes the betting process feel more legitimate and fair, as bettors can verify that what they are betting on aligns with what is happening on the field.

For betting platforms, offering live streaming can serve as a competitive advantage. Platforms that provide this feature are more likely to attract and retain users who value the ability to follow the game live and make well-informed decisions. This, in turn, fosters a stronger relationship between the bettor and the platform.

Combining Data and Streaming for Smarter Bets

Another way live streaming is impacting sports betting is through the combination of live data feeds and video streams. Many platforms now integrate real-time statistics, analysis, and streaming into a single interface, allowing bettors to see everything they need in one place. This combination provides a comprehensive view of the game, enabling bettors to make smarter and more informed decisions.

For instance, during a basketball game, bettors can watch the live stream while tracking player statistics, team performance, and betting odds. This dual-layer of information allows for a more strategic approach to betting, where users can base their decisions on both visual cues and statistical data.

Live streaming has become a game-changer in the world of Sports betting, enhancing user engagement, boosting transparency, and creating a more dynamic betting environment. By offering real-time access to games and events, betting platforms provide a more immersive and strategic experience for their users. As live streaming technology continues to evolve, its role in sports betting will only grow, making it a key feature for bettors who want to stay informed and engaged throughout the sporting events they wager on.

ClickOut Media prepare for ‘monstrous’ edition of iGB Affiliate Barcelona as registrations show 86.7% uplift

 

With the volume of registrations for iGB Affiliate tracking nearly 87% ahead of the same stage last year Neil Roarty spokesperson for ClickOut Media, the multi-channel marketing company with a team of 120+ professionals based in key international locations has predicted that, the first edition of the show to be held in Barcelona will be a ‘really monstrous event.’

Expanding on his hopes for next year’s historic edition Roarty added: “Barcelona is a wonderful city and arguably more suited to evening networking than London as the central area is more self-contained – and of course the weather is better! With the show’s ambitious growth plans it’s understandable that iGB Affiliate is relocating and I would say that London’s loss is Barcelona’s gain.”

He added: “The city of Barcelona is unparalleled for evening entertainment and hospitality, so I am sure the relocation will be a positive thing, even if it takes a little getting used to in everyone’s annual planning. As such I have little doubt that the show in January will be a really monstrous event.”

Reflecting on the industry’s enthusiastic response to the relocation to the Fira Gran Via Barcelona which is one of the largest exhibition venues in Europe, Naomi Barton, iGB Events’ Global Portfolio Director stated: “I’m delighted to confirm that the marketing campaign in support of iGB Affiliate 2025 has hit the ground-running with more iGaming Affiliates registering to attend much earlier in the promotional cycle.

“iGB Affiliate is the only event in the world that has a dedicated focus on connecting igaming affiliates with operators, affiliate programmes and tech vendors. Our mission is to facilitate outstanding business networking, deliver high-quality content, and provide thought leadership that fosters trust-based partnerships and drives growth throughout the iGaming affiliate ecosystem. By delivering on these core objectives we plan to usher in an incredibly bright future for all of our customers.”

iGB Affiliate 2025 will feature a record 250 industry-leading exhibitors and sponsors, a vibrant community of 8000+ iGaming Affiliates and over 50 Affiliate Network Programs and Tech Vendors all brought together in a dynamic and engaging environment.
