iGB Affiliate 2026 in Barcelona has officially come to an end, marking two powerful days for the affiliate industry and an unforgettable grand finale for N1 Puzzle Promo. N1 Partners wrapped up the conference days with high-intensity networking, strong media attention and a large-scale final event that brought the community together.

From January 20 to 21, N1 Partners welcomed partners, media and industry leaders at stand 80-C80, which quickly became one of the most dynamic meeting points on the expo floor.

A Key Meeting Point During iGB Affiliate 2026

Throughout both conference days, the N1 Partners stand maintained a steady flow of visitors and ongoing media attention. The scale of partner engagement and the volume of conversations naturally positioned the stand as a focal point for meetings, interviews and informal discussions across the venue.

Over the course of the conference, the team held more than 500 meetings, covering traffic strategies, custom deals and long-term collaboration opportunities. In parallel, 300+ branded merch packs were distributed to stand visitors, reinforcing brand visibility and partner engagement throughout the event.

The stand experience combined business and interaction in a relaxed format. Guests enjoyed signature cocktails while discussing top-performing deals, took part in the Plinko activity to win exclusive N1 Partners merchandise, and used the space to build new connections, strengthen existing partnerships and move forward with concrete business agreements.

Strong Media Engagement and Industry Dialogue

iGB Affiliate 2026 also served as an important media platform for N1 Partners. During the conference, the team took part in over 10 interviews and podcasts, sharing perspectives on affiliate marketing trends, partner expectations and sustainable growth within the iGaming sector.

This level of media interest reflected the market’s attention to N1 Partners’ approach and reinforced the company’s position as a visible and trusted affiliate program.

The Grand Finale. N1 Puzzle Promo Party

The highlight of the week took place after the first day of the iGB Affiliate conference, when N1 Partners hosted the grand final event of N1 Puzzle Promo in Barcelona. The evening was designed as a closed-format celebration, welcoming a carefully selected audience of partners, industry leaders and key players from the iGaming community.

The event generated significant interest well ahead of time, with over 2,000 registrations, while attendance exceeded 600 guests, filling the venue with decision-makers, top affiliates and long-term partners. The closed nature of the event and limited access created a high level of anticipation and made the finale one of the most talked-about gatherings of the conference week.

During the night, N1 Partners revealed the winner of the main N1 Puzzle Promo prize, awarding a Robinson R22 Beta II helicopter, alongside exclusive giveaways for guests. 

As part of the finale, N1 Partners proudly presented the finalists of N1 Puzzle Promo, recognising the partners who consistently maintained a strong pace throughout the campaign and secured the top positions on the leaderboard.

• 1st place: Cash Splash

• 2nd place: Advertise

• 3rd place: Traffic Squad

• 4th place: Seven Group

• 5th place: Alfaleads Network

The program was complemented by DJ sets and a live performance from the event’s headline guest, turning the evening into a landmark moment that combined celebration, entertainment and strong brand presence.

Recognising N1 Puzzle Promo’s Impact

In addition to its industry presence at iGB Affiliate 2026, N1 Puzzle Promo was recently recognised at the European iGaming Awards, where it was named Best Advertising and Marketing Campaign. This accolade highlights the campaign’s global reach and impact, acknowledging it as one of the most innovative and performance-driven marketing initiatives in the iGaming industry.

Closing the Barcelona Chapter

N1 Partners expressed appreciation to everyone who visited the stand, took part in meetings and contributed to the energy of iGB Affiliate 2026.

Special thanks were also extended to all guests who joined the N1 Puzzle Promo grand final party and helped turn the evening into one of the most memorable moments of the conference week.

The Barcelona chapter has closed, but the momentum continues.

Gamblers Connect, the award-winning iGaming media and affiliate platform, has revealed that Mondoplay will be the official conference sponsor of its delegation at the upcoming ICE and iGB Affiliate Summit in Barcelona, Spain.

This sponsorship marks a significant collaboration between two innovative forces in the iGaming sector as the industry gathers for its most prestigious annual event. This partnership serves as another prime example of how strategic alliances can amplify impact within the community.

Both Gamblers Connect and Mondoplay share a unified vision of prioritising quality and user experience above all else. This sponsorship perfectly reflects that shared belief and commitment to excellence.

The summit in Barcelona represents a new chapter for the industry, and this partnership ensures Gamblers Connect can connect directly with operators, affiliates, and industry leaders from across the globe with greater resources and presence.

Mondoplay has established itself as a dynamic operator brand known for its comprehensive sportsbook and casino offering. Its platform is built on delivering seamless player experiences, a philosophy that aligns perfectly with the editorial standards of Gamblers Connect.

Gjorgje Ristikj, Founder of Gamblers Connect, said: “By supporting our delegation, Mondoplay is directly investing in independent media coverage and the fostering of transparent industry dialogue. This partnership is more than just a sponsorship agreement. It is a celebration of shared ambition and mutual growth. Together, we can continue to prove that meaningful collaboration and genuine value creation are what truly move the iGaming industry forward.”

Mr. Gamble Forum, a fast-growing online gambling community, has rolled out a major platform revamp that is already delivering record-breaking growth in traffic, visibility, and user engagement. Timed perfectly ahead of the industry’s busiest season, the update strengthens the forum’s position as a go-to destination for casino and sports betting discussions worldwide.

The refreshed platform combines a cleaner design, expanded content, and new marketing capabilities, all built around a single goal: creating a space where players can freely share real experiences while operators connect with highly motivated users.

“We’ve invested a lot of effort into improving both the user experience and the commercial potential of the forum,” said Paul Puolakka, CMO of Mr. Gamble. “This update reinforces our vision of an open, trusted community that benefits players and partners alike—and the growth we’re seeing confirms we’re on the right track.”

Strong Growth Momentum Following the Revamp

The impact of the update has been immediate. In Novembe 2025, compared to December 2024, Mr. Gamble Forum recorded a sharp rise across all key performance metrics. Daily clicks increased by 270%, daily impressions climbed by 471%, and monthly clicks grew by 380%. These numbers reflect not only improved visibility in search engines but also a growing appetite for a community where players can openly discuss casinos, bonuses, slots, and betting strategies.

Sports Betting Content Broadens the Forum’s Scope

One of the most significant additions is the expansion into sports betting content. The forum now features dedicated discussions around upcoming games, betting strategies, and odds, giving sports bettors a place to exchange insights in real time. Alongside these discussions, users can explore a steadily growing selection of sports betting bonuses, including both long-term promotions and limited-time offers from leading brands.

This addition allows Mr. Gamble Forum to serve a broader audience while keeping casino players and sports bettors under one unified community.

Localized Promotions for Key Regions

As part of the revamp, Mr. Gamble Forum has also refined how promotions are presented. Players from Australia and New Zealand now have their own dedicated sections where they can immediately discover the most relevant casino and betting offers available to them. This localized approach makes it easier for users to find deals that actually apply to their region, while increasing engagement and conversion potential for operators.

A Clear Step Toward Global Expansion

The forum’s international ambitions are already taking shape. A dedicated Swedish-language version of the forum has recently gone live, giving Swedish players a space to participate in discussions in their native language. Early engagement data shows positive signs, suggesting strong potential as localized promotions and content continue to expand.

Over the past year, the forum has seen its strongest growth in the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, and New Zealand, and Sweden is now emerging as another promising market.

New Opportunities for Casino and Betting Partners

Beyond user-facing improvements, the revamp introduces new commercial features designed to support partners. Updated call-to-action elements help guide users toward relevant offers, making it easier for casinos to attract players who are already in a decision-making mindset.

For a limited time, Mr. Gamble Forum is also offering partners the opportunity to test forum marketing free of charge, as long as they can provide geo- and IP-targeted dynamic banners. This allows operators to explore the forum’s potential, reach high-intent audiences, and gather performance insights without upfront risk.

A Community Built on Real Player Experiences

Despite the platform’s growth and new features, the core of Mr. Gamble Forum remains unchanged: community-driven discussion. Players continue to share honest reviews of casinos, compare bonuses, talk openly about slot games, and exchange betting strategies. This transparency has been a key factor behind the forum’s rising visibility and trust among users.

As more players join and more regions come online, these conversations are becoming richer, more diverse, and increasingly valuable for both users and operators.

What Comes Next for Mr. Gamble Forum

The December revamp marks the beginning of a new phase for the platform. Further international expansion is already on the roadmap, alongside improvements to mobile performance, contributor rewards, and partner analytics. Each development is designed to strengthen the ecosystem and keep the forum relevant as the online gambling landscape continues to evolve.

Conclusion

With its latest update, Mr. Gamble Forum has transformed from a growing community into a truly global platform. The combination of rapid traffic growth, expanded sports betting content, localized promotions, and innovative partner opportunities highlights a clear direction forward. Backed by strong momentum in the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand, and early success in Sweden, the forum is well positioned to become one of the most influential discussion hubs in the online gambling industry.

As Paul Puolakka summarizes, “When players feel heard and operators see real value, growth follows naturally. That’s exactly what we’re building with Mr. Gamble Forum.”
