GiG signs partnership agreement with Betway for marketing compliance tool, GiG Comply

Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG), has signed an agreement with global gaming company Betway for the provision of its automated marketing compliance tool, GiG Comply.
GiG’s self-service marketing compliance solution can be tailored to cover market-specific legislation and advertising standards, allowing operators to ensure that affiliates are aligned with their brand’s marketing message.
GiG Comply will allow Betway to set up bespoke criteria and checklist parameters to scan and check thousands of web pages for content including iGaming code red words, links and regulatory requirements. This will not only help Betway to ensure that they remain proactive with their marketing efforts, but will also provide confidence that affiliates are aligned with their brand and that responsible gaming measures are visible on relevant pages, and terms and conditions are correct and up to date.
Jonas Warrer, CMO at GiG said, “It’s great to see an industry leader such as Betway place trust in our compliance software to help them ensure that they continue to create a safer, responsible gaming environment for their end-users. We look forward to working with our new partner in helping to strengthen their marketing compliance efforts with GiG Comply.”
Paul Adkins, Marketing and Operations Director at Betway, said “Responsibility is at the heart of everything we do at Betway, we’re delighted to partner with GiG and use their innovative compliance solution for our marketing messages.”

The Slovak Gambling Authority’s systematic check activities help reduce the number of illegal gaming devices

In Q1 2023, the Slovak Gambling Authority conducted 2511 compliance checks, which is 201 more compared to last year.
The significant year-on-year increase in the number of checks is due to the restructuring of surveillance and the strategic set-up of the supervision by the Authority's top management.
"I am very pleased that the goals set up by the current management are also successfully fulfilled in the gambling supervision area. Of course, a big thank you to our local supervisors, who actively investigate illegal devices and supervise the fulfilment of all legal requirements by legal operators.
Having gambling under systematic supervision is one of the main missions of the Authority as a gambling regulator," said the Director General at the Office for the Regulation of Gambling (URHH), Dávid Lenčéš.
More than a 45 % increase against the same period last year was recorded in checks focused on the search of illegal gambling establishments. In the first quarter of 2023, supervisors conducted 437 compliance checks focusing on unlawful gambling as mining and quiz machines, intending to prevent further operation. As Director General said, “Increased systematic check activities of illegal establishments has its justification and brings results as, compared to 2022, the number of detected illegal gaming machines on the market is significantly reduced. Searching for illegal establishments and seizing illegal devices has a preventive nature and ultimately protects society, especially at-risk groups and the youth.”
According to the Gambling Act, small operators, such as pubs, can't operate gaming machines. The URHH must license each gaming machine since it is the only official body authorised to issue a license. Operating gambling without a given license is prohibited in Slovakia.
The Gambling Regulatory Authority also carries out surveillance remotely. In the Q1 of this year, we are talking about an almost 90 % increase in on-site checks compared with last year. Thanks to online access to the servers of gambling operators, this form of supervision allows more effective control of many establishments without physically leaving the workplace.
Establishing a specialised online gaming department in 2022 also contributed to the overall increase of supervision effectiveness over 2022-2023. The mission of the specialised department is to supervise licensed online gambling or searching for and restrict access to illegal websites operating or promoting gambling without valid licenses.
