True Flip Launches True Lab, Game Provider Acquiring the MGA License
True Lab, a game provider, newly emerging within the True Flip group, has been awarded a Critical Gaming Supply license by the Malta Gaming Authority.
True Lab is the new name for the online casino games vertical in the Malta-based True Flip group. The game provider offers a growing portfolio of titles with authentic bonus features and top-quality visuals.
The newly-acquired permit and existing certification will let True Lab offer casino games to partners in Malta and across the regulated European markets. The products have been certified both for Malta and multiple additional regions.
These will include the newly arriving Victoria Wild slot with its complex and engaging mechanics, as well as the high risk Mining Factory slot, popular with crypto adopters, and a remarkable set of alternative games like Magic Dice, Chain’s Code, Tony’s Reel, Pirate Bay, and Robby the Illusionist. The HTML5 titles are available throughout True Lab’s partner network.
“The MGA permit marks a new level of our development and follows our general focus on regulated markets and players’ protection. The past year has brought us lots of challenges, but it ended with our casino games vertical totally re-imagined and re-branded. True Lab has acquired its first aggregation partners, and moves on to shine brightly in 2020. Therefore, we’re open for meet-ups at the upcoming iGaming shows,” said True Flip group’s co-founder Konstantin Katsev.

PAGCor Welcomes Lawyer Wilma Eisma as New President and Chief Operating Officer
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCor) today welcomed its new President and Chief Operating Officer, lawyer Wilma Eisma, who took her oath of office before Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin in Malacanang this morning.
“We are happy to welcome Atty. Wilma Eisma as PAGCor’s new President and Chief Operating Officer,” PAGCor Chairman Alejandro Tengco said. “We know she will be a great asset and her vast experience in both the government and private sectors will surely be put to good use here.”
Tengco said he witnessed Eisma’s oath-taking in Malacanang this morning. She then immediately joined her first PAGCor board meeting in the afternoon as the agency’s first ever woman President and Chief Operating Officer.
A lawyer by profession, Eisma earned her law degree from the Ateneo de Manila University and was a member of the Board of Directors of the Development Bank of the Philippines before joining the state gaming firm.
Prior to that, she also served as the first woman Administrator and Chairman of the Subic Bay Metropolitan Authority (SBMA).
Her private sector stints include leadership roles in PMFTC Incorporated, the Philippine affiliate of Philip Morris International.
She also held key positions at the Department of Trade and Industry where she worked at the Office of the Secretary and in the Office of the Majority Leader in the House of Representatives, among others.
Eisma succeeded Atty Juanito Sanosa Jr who resigned as PAGCor President and Chief Operating Officer last January.
