This edition offers a predefined loyalty tree with a fixed cost per player, making it ideal for partners looking for a simple solution. They can instantly integrate Last Battle into their platform, knowing exactly how much they are investing in player loyalty while enjoying effortless system management.
Model 2: Hero Edition
More suitable for established partners, the hero edition integrates directly with their CRMs, allowing full control over the loyalty system. They can also assign specific rewards to different player groups, enabling players to trade, gift, or sell their loyalty cards, and tailor every aspect of the engagement process.
Additional Features
• Boost Player Engagement: Players stay motivated with tiered levels and tailored rewards, driving them to return and play more.
• Maximise Retention: Dynamic loyalty cards keep users engaged, increasing their loyalty over time.
• Fully Customisable: Partners have complete control over loyalty cards, reward structures, and messaging, making it easy to create a system that aligns with their brand.

• Advanced CRM Capabilities: Model 2 offers sophisticated loyalty management, allowing operators to create truly personalised experiences for their players.

TaDa Gaming Gets Pulses Racing in Dynamic New Release Speed Baccarat
TaDa Gaming, a leading provider of immersive casino entertainment content, is delighting baccarat fans and novices alike with Speed Baccarat, the latest addition to its portfolio of classic table games with a twist.
With just three outcomes – Player Wins, Banker Wins or a Tie – Speed Baccarat is a thrilling and intriguing game of chance but with added Multipliers to get players’ hearts pumping.
As in standard baccarat, players try to predict whose hand – Player or Banker – will win by having the value closest to 9 and, as always, TaDa Gaming has put its signature innovation on its version of 007’s favourite card game.
Not only eight decks of cards excluding jokers, but the fastest gameplay per round keeps the excitement levels at maximum.
Speed Baccarat lives up to its name by upping the pace from traditional and other quick play baccarat slots, with players enjoying a suspense-filled 23 seconds per hand including the 10 second countdown before the bets are locked. No other speed baccarat slot plays out this fast and yet there is still more to come.
Click the lightning strike EX symbol on the screen to start the Lightning Bet Option. This requires an extra 50% of the wager value for an additional 1-5 cards to be drawn and a random Multiplier applied to each card, significantly raising the excitement levels.
Plus, in the Lightning Bet round, if any of the extra cards awarded a multiplier is then dealt in that hand, the card lights up for instant recognition and an extra Multiplier on the Lightning Bet’s cards is awarded. All additional multipliers will be added together when plural multipliers are triggered in the round being played.
Sean Liu, Head of Product Management at TaDa Gaming, said: “Delivering dynamic play is the driving process behind our Speed Baccarat release. We want all players to appreciate this traditional High Roller slot but with ramped up timing to make it ‘edge of your seat’ gaming that appeals across the board.”
