Former Fandango CFO Joins Loot Crate As It Scales Through New Channels

 

Loot Crate™, the leading subscription commerce platform for fans, announced the hiring of Rob Leff, former Chief Financial Officer and SVP for Fandango, as its Chief Financial Officer.

Leff joins Loot Crate from Fandango, where he has been a significant member of the team for over 10 years and its CFO since 2011.  He helped lead Fandango during a time of tremendous growth and international expansion. In addition to his role as CFO leading all aspects of the finance and accounting teams, he was also responsible for business intelligence, helping to form the practice at Fandango and championing predictive analytics and data science.  He has also played a key role in acquisitions activities over the last five years, supervising the analysis, deal process and many aspects of integration.  He has been a significant force in helping lead and drive Fandango’s growth with a series of 7 major deals in the last five years.

“Rob has had considerable success as a leader at one of the companies Loot Crate admires within the entertainment industry,” said co-founder and CEO of Loot Crate, Chris Davis. “His experience will help us in our continued growth, as we diversify our customer base across subscription, retail and ecommerce. The team is extremely excited to welcome him onboard.”

Prior to Fandango, Leff was formerly the 1st vice president of corporate financial planning at Countrywide Financial Corp, which was purchased by Bank of America in 2009. He was responsible for the reporting and analytics for Countrywide’s thirty-five Central Office divisions with $1.8 billion in annual operating expenses.

Nolimit City takes you on an outing to the Carnival in Munchies
Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Nolimit City is serving up a twisted carnival treat in Munchies. Step into the fair grounds as Nolimit’s latest Labs game released following the release of Outsourced: Slash Game. As a Labs title, expect a fresh and experimental spin on the classic Nolimit style. In the heart of the carnival tents lies a curious attraction: Fluffers—a cute, cuddly, but oh-so-smelly creature that’s causing quite the commotion among visitors. Some may say it’s the attraction of the year!

In Munchies, you get up close and personal to Fluffers, who hides a screen in it’s belly. The reel displays one symbol per spin, which can either be a multiplier or a blank. With xBet choose between playing with 2 or 4 reels and introducing Linked Wins to the mix. In the case of a multiplier higher than the subsequent reel, its value will be transferred to the subsequent reel. When a Bonus Symbol lands with multiple active reels, they also transform to the subsequent reel rewarding up to 40 Free Spins! God Mode is also an attraction at the carnival.

Fluffers goes from adorable to ravenous in It’s Alive Spins!! However, things get even more ferocious in Devour Spins. When landing a Bonus Symbol in It’s Alive Spins awards and extra 5 Free Spins per Bonus Symbol. The difference in Devour Spins is that the highest multiplier value which lands, gets locked above the reel area and is rewarded to a player with each spin. Whenever a higher multiplier lands on the lower reels, they will replace those locked Multipliers above.

Munchies is a one of a kind slot with a new mechanic that will make you scratch your head in excitement with Linked Wins and a maximum payout of 10,000x the base bet with 1 Reel, 20,000x the base bet with 2 Reels and 40,000x with 4 Reels. Munchies, unlike Nolimit City’s high-volatility slots, is rated as ‘High Volatility’ so be careful because Fluffers doesn’t discriminate when it comes to it’s food!

Per Lindheimer, Head of Product at Nolimit City, said: “Fluffers is a deceptively cute little monster with one thing on his mind: MUNCH! Munchies is unlike anything we’ve dished out before—equal parts quirky and daring. The Linked Wins mechanic allows players to play the way they want, especially on 4 reels, where things get downright crazy. Just don’t get too attached to Fluffers… he’s got a big appetite!“

BOS presents initiative against money laundering
Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

Money laundering is a threat in all sectors of society where money is present, including the gambling sector. The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling (BOS) is therefore today presenting two initiatives related to money laundering.

Firstly, BOS presents an AML (Anti Money Laundering) checklist with bullet points that BOS recommends that online gambling companies on the Swedish gambling market follow. The purpose is to reach the highest possible standard in the work against money laundering, in regards to authorities and society in general.

Secondly, BOS presents in collaboration with the consulting agency Advisense a report on money laundering and the Swedish online gambling market. The report is based on interviews with BOS member companies and contains concrete proposals for improved AML work in the gambling sector, for gambling companies as well as banks and authorities. For example, with inspiration taken from the banking sector, the establishment of a Swedish Anti-Money Laundering Intelligence Task Force between the gambling industry and the Financial Police is proposed.

“Today we take this comprehensive approach to the problem of money laundering. The purpose is to make visible how the work against money laundering in the gambling industry can be improved. We present our report and checklist completely openly, so that even a gambling company that is not a member of BOS can use the material, if they so wish. We all win from that.”, says Gustaf Hoffstedt, Secretary General, The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling.
