The Barona Band of Mission Indians has extended the closure of Barona Resort & Casino to April 19 in response to the ongoing concerns about COVID-19. All staff members will continue to receive pay and benefits during this time.

“Barona’s Tribal leaders will continue to monitor and evaluate the situation on a daily basis as the health and safety of our staff, players and community is our top priority. We anxiously await the day we can welcome our staff and players back home to Barona. For now, we hope to be able to re-open on Monday, April 20. We thank the entire Barona family, including our 3,100 Barona staff members and all of our players for their support and patience during this difficult time,” the Barona Band of Mission Indians said.

Denmark’s new marketing regulations for gambling are set to come in effect on April 1. As per the new regulations, gambling marketing must include new information and links.

Gambling marketing must now show the age limit for betting and information about the national self-exclusion register. Operators must also direct customers towards the responsible gambling guide by regulator Spillemyndigheden.

“These rules are expected to raise some questions from licence-holders and other stakeholders. Depending on the type of media, it may be difficult to comply with the requirements of the executive orders. Spillemyndigheden will soon be publishing a guide where examples of requirements for different media types will be reviewed,” the regulator said.

Gaming content developer 1X2 Network has extended its partnership with platform provider Digitain. As per the deal, Digitain will gain access to additional third-party game studios via 1X2 Network’s 3PI aggregation platform.

The 3PI game aggregation platform provides online gambling operators with seamless access to innovative and exciting developers whose titles can help them stand out from their rivals.

“We are delighted to have extended our already successful partnership with Digitain and to provide them with access to hundreds more titles with the click of a button. 3PI provides variety and quality whilst maintaining 1X2’s rich tradition of fantastic service and account management, and with the ability to add the likes Leap Gaming virtual sports games at this time really can be of benefit to Digitains customers while there is a lack of sports on offer,” Kevin Reid, CCO of 1X2 Network, said.

“1X2 Network’s proprietary games have become an integral offering for our global operator partners and their players, so it made perfect sense for us to build on this partnership and take additional third-party titles via 3PI. Being able to offer an even more broad range of Virtual Sports and additional casino content at this time could never be more important for our partners, 3PI offers us just that,” Samvel Mkrtumyan – head of external communication at Digitain, said.
