Supporting safer gambling in Malta is the focus of a new partnership between EveryMatrix, BetBlocker and the Responsible Gaming Foundation. The collaboration will see BetBlocker expand its services to include a Maltese version of its award-winning blocking software.

This project is launched as part of European Safer Gambling Week 2024 to provide both an additional tool to support Maltese players looking to manage their access to gambling and to raise the profile of the free, anonymous to use, service BetBlocker provides within one of the key international hubs for the igaming industry.

Duncan Garvie, Founder and Trustee for BetBlocker, said: “One of the biggest challenges for BetBlocker is ensuring that a technologically complex app is as simple as possible for users to set-up. Currently, BetBlocker can take a user from download to blocked in under 2 minutes.

But that is only the case where the user finds the set-up instructions easy to engage with.

“Where a user is able to access BetBlocker in the language that they are most confident in, the chances of them converting to an active block is far higher.

“We’re really grateful to EveryMatrix and the RGF for their partnership on this project. It significantly improves the options for Maltese players and will go a long way in terms of raising awareness of the support that BetBlocker offers amongst MGA licensees.

“We hope that in the future, the MGA will advance their player protection standards with the inclusion of requirement for licensees to signpost blocking software to ensure players are aware of this option.”

Jake Cachia, Head of Compliance, EveryMatrix, added: “We’re delighted to be able to support BetBlocker and the RGF with this important initiative in Malta, particularly in time for Safer Gambling Week.

“EveryMatrix is proud of its commitment to safer gambling and player protection while producing market leading gaming solutions, and partnerships such as underlining how crucial it is to keep making a difference.”

Kevin O’Neill, General Manager for the Responsible Gaming Foundation, shared these thoughts on the project: “The Responsible Gaming Foundation is proud to collaborate with BetBlocker and Everymatrix on this initiative, furthering our mission to support safer gambling practices in Malta.

Translating BetBlocker into Maltese is a significant step towards accessibility and inclusivity, ensuring that players can effectively manage their gambling habits in their native language.

This project demonstrates the power of partnerships in enhancing player protection and underscores the importance of providing players with tools that promote responsible decision-making. As we launch this initiative during European Safer Gambling Week 2024, we remain committed to contributing to an environment where innovative solutions, such as BetBlocker, can meaningfully impact safeguarding our community.”

EveryMatrix has launched Personal Jackpots, a next-generation product with the power to develop stronger connections between players and brands by creating tailored experiences for individuals.

EveryMatrix’s Personal Jackpots, available via JackpotEngine, surpasses the boundaries of conventional jackpot offerings, creating a tailored experience for individual players, nurturing a stronger connection between them and operator brands.

The technology works by learning and adapting to the unique preferences of each player including preferred spend, betting levels, and playing styles, and offers the chance to create and claim a jackpot created just for you.

The more you play, the more your Personal Jackpot grows, and only you can win that specific cash prize, taking jackpot stickiness to the next level.

JackpotEngine supports both CasinoEngine and SlotMatrix content libraries currently boasting more than 30K+ games and integrations with 330+ games studios.

Personal jackpots are fully configurable to any player preference, can be styled to suit any branding, can be displayed alongside up to other three in-game jackpots simultaneously and are available via desktop, mobile, or tablet.

Each one is presented to players as ready-made, in-game widgets displaying jackpot pools, updated in real-time. Players can minimise the jackpot widget if they wish, it is completely up to them how they play.

Stian Enger Pettersen, Head of Casino, EveryMatrix, said: “EveryMatrix Personal jackpots represent the next layer of innovation, providing our customers with even more exciting opportunities to captivate players and drive long-term loyalty.

“By tailoring the jackpot experience to each player’s unique needs, Personalised Jackpots create a deeper level of engagement and foster greater loyalty. This also unlocks a new realm of customised gaming experiences that resonate with players on a profound level.”

EveryMatrix has launched ‘The EveryMatrix Effect’ a unique on-demand video series designed to empower operators to overcome the biggest casino pain points and showcase the impact its technology has on more than 300 global customers.

The campaign is the second successive collaboration with iGaming Business following the award-winning Slot Trumps series that uncovered exclusive player behaviour data across the world’s hottest casino markets. Slot Trumps received great industry acclaim and was viewed more than seven million times across all channels.

For the first time The EveryMatrix Effect video series is hosted on a dedicated section of the iGaming Business website and has been purpose-built to deliver expert insights, actionable tips and learnings and real-world success stories that will help operators navigate the complexities of online casino operations.

Each month the dedicated section will see a new video launched alongside a feast of analysis, data and testimonials discussing the common most challenges casino brands face, how to approach each one and evidence of the ‘EveryMatrix Effect’ across some of the tier-1 providers customers.

In the opening episode, Alexandra Breinig, casino sales manager at EveryMatrix, dives into one of the most important challenges operators face: limited access to quality content and the need for localisation when expanding into new markets. From European regulations to the agility of Latin American and African markets, she shares essential advice to help you stay ahead.

Here is a sneak peak of episode two, live next Wednesday. In this episode EveryMatrix tackles how operators can optimise lobby management and UI personalisation, adapting to market-specific needs and regulations.

Stian Enger Pettersen, CEO, Casino, EveryMatrix, said: “Over the course of 16 years EveryMatrix’s modular technology from casino and sportsbook to affiliate management, player account management and payments, has had a colossal impact on our customers driving record player volumes and revenues. We call this the ‘EveryMatrix Effect’.

“Whether you are entering new markets, scaling your business or addressing ongoing issues, our carefully crafted on-demand video and content series offers data-driven best practices and performance metrics to support your success.”
