EveryMatrix is pleased to announce the launch of two new educational hubs for Romanian children as a part of its long-term CSR project Kids Academy.

The two new centres add to the existing three in Bucharest, Romania, and are operated in partnership with the local Child Protective Services. The programs provide access to high-quality education for children at social risk. The kids are tutored by EveryMatrix’s full-time teachers in disciplines such as Computer Science, Maths, and English.

Since launching in 2015, Kids Academy has provided access to quality education for over 200 pupils between the ages of 8 and 15.

Kids Academy’s mission is to help pupils continue their studies into higher education despite social inequality and prevent children at risk to drop out of school. At the very least, the program ensures basic computer literacy, which typically is not provided in their homes or schools. The program is operated under the strong belief that investment in education can break social barriers and improve kids’ lives in the long-term by equipping them with hard and soft skills requested on the job market.

Ebbe Groes, Group CEO of EveryMatrix, comments: “We have been dedicated to supporting educational causes since 2015. Kids Academy is a project I value very much and seeing the impact it had over the years makes our team here very happy. The activity in the two new centres will make it possible to aid even more children. Our teachers provide much-needed support and help the pupils have better paths in life.”

Kids Academy had continued to provide ongoing support to the beneficiaries, in the form of online classes, live workshops held at EveryMatrix’s headquarters, and tutoring, since March 2020 when the schools and educational centres in Romania transitioned to an online or hybrid system. Kids Academy’s activity is fully compliant with governmental public health policies for COVID-19 to keep both pupils and teachers safe.

iGaming payment gateway and processing platform MoneyMatrix has extended its payment solutions portfolio with 25 new options since the beginning of this year. As a result, MoneyMatrix successfully entered into new gaming jurisdictions and continues to offer iGaming operators localised payment methods across the world.

MoneyMatrix, part of the EveryMatrix group, has focused heavily on growing both its number of payment solutions and the covered territories. Since the beginning of 2021, the processor has included 25 new payment options in their portfolio, covering several new countries in Latin America, Africa and Europe.

The newly available solutions have been selected to allow operators even more flexibility in creating the perfect mix of local and global payment methods. The list includes CashtoCode eVoucher for Latin America and Africa, Pix, the payment method developed by the Central Bank of Brasil, and VIVA Wallets and Spots, widespread in European countries such as Greece and Bulgaria.

Samoil Dolejan, CEO of MoneyMatrix, says: “Our business approach is clear: to help merchants provide a seamless and exceptional payment experience at each stage of the customer journey. Different countries have different spending trends, spending power, levels of digitalisation and laws and regulations. For the gaming industry, localisation is key and, to maximise conversion, we need to make sure we offer our merchants’ payment options that players are familiar with.”

Earlier this year, MoneyMatrix announced the launch of their new Identity Monitoring Application, a microservice assisting iGaming operators to significantly improve and automate their Risk Management and KYC processes.
