GamCare launches invitation to tender cCBT technology
GamCare, which is funded by GambleAware, has published an Invitation to Tender (ITT) for companies that can offer computerised Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (cCBT) software suitable to help those affected by gambling-related harms. The last date of tender submissions is March 25.
GamCare operates the National Gambling HelpLine and NetLine, as well as providing a range of face-to-face, online and telephone treatment services which are based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. GamCare services are available to anyone affected by gambling-related harms, including gamblers and their family and friends who are impacted.
Information, advice and self-help resources are also available via GamCare’s website, which receives around 2 million unique visitors each year. This includes around 20,000 people each year who complete a self-assessment tool to gauge the impact of gambling on their lives, and whether they may benefit from support to help them change their gambling behaviour.
GamCare is planning to introduce a new range of end-to-end digital interventions which can enhance their existing provision and help them to reach more people affected by gambling problems. This will have the following features:
- Provision of digital screening for problem gambling using a validated screening tool such as PGSI;
- Provision of brief intervention modules of up to 15 minutes which will be recommended based on the outcome of screening, and which can also be used as standalone modules by GamCare’s Frontline Service Advisers;
- Provision of cCBT for up to 10 sessions, each with a minimum duration of 20 minutes, maximum duration 1 hour;
- Provision of data and analytics to ensure GamCare can monitor individual characteristics, progress, attrition, outcomes and follow ups for all participants in the programme.
Anna Hemmings, GamCare CEO, says: “Offering our service users a range of effective and flexible treatment options, including digital interventions to suit them, will mean that we are able to reach more people affected by problem gambling.”

Golden Whale announce multi-year extension with Stadtcasino Baden Group
Fast-growing data science company renews deal with Swiss casino group to further drive retention and provide ML-based gamification optimisation to its B2B arm, Gamanza Group AG
Golden Whale Productions, the innovative data science company specialising in AI-powered solutions and machine learning for the iGaming industry, has announced it has signed a multi-year extension to its current agreement with Stadtcasino Baden Group.
Having previously worked with the Swiss casino group to drive customer retention and thereby increase its market share, Golden Whale will continue to support the business in this capacity while also cooperating more intensively with the Stadtcasino Baden Group’s B2B arm, Gamanza.
A subsidiary of Stadtcasino Baden Group, Gamanza has a strong track record for creating software for the iGaming industry and counts GamanzaEngage – Switzerland’s leading software suite for online casinos – among its recent success stories. Now supported by Golden Whale, the B2B brand will be able to draw on powerful ML-based optimisation to further enhance its offering.
One of the main aspects Golden Whale will focus on as part of the extended deal is using its advanced, data-driven technologies to turbo-charge Gamanza’s existing gamification suite, with this empowering the group to offer an even more comprehensive promotional toolkit to its clients.
As such, the renewed partnership offers considerable strategic importance for both Gamanza and the Stadtcasino Baden Group brand, while also offering Golden Whale the opportunity to deploy its ML systems and predictive optimisation tools among a large and highly-engaged customer base.
Eberhard Dürrschmid, Chief Executive Officer at Golden Whale, said: “Golden Whale is delighted to announce we’ve agreed a multi-year extension to our current deal with Stadtcasino Baden Group that will see us assist the company with both player retention and increasing market share.
“As part of the agreement, we’ll continue the strong work we’ve done with the brand over the past couple of years while also cooperating more closely with its main B2B arm, Gamanza, to bring our pioneering form of ML-based optimisation directly onto the latter’s gamification suite.”
Christian Aumüller, Chief Executive Officer at Stadtcasino Baden Group, said: “As one of the gaming industry’s true trailblazers, Stadtcasino Baden Group is very happy to renew its partnership with Golden Whale Productions – a company that, like us, now sits at the very forefront of iGaming innovation.
“The decision to extend the deal was made with a view to drive customer retention and further increase our market share, while also optimising the products and services we offer to B2B clients through Gamanza. With AI and machine learning both having a big role to play in the future of iGaming, the collaboration will hold great strategic importance for us going forward.”

Spinomenal adds Zeus Unchained Hold & Hit to slots line-up
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has added Zeus Unchained Hold & Hit to its marvellous Mythology series. Zeus Unchained Hold & Hit presents a grid framework of 5×3 and is set at 25 fixed lines.
Once the action is underway, players join Zeus, the ancient Greek god of sky and thunder for a battle on the reels. A powerful soundtrack heightens the anticipation as players look for Wild symbols on screen. Three or four Wild symbols will only pay out when followed by free spins or a bonus symbol. The Wild will count as any symbol aside from free spins and bonus symbols.
Three Scatter Free Spins symbols will launch the Free Spins game. In the base game, these Scatter Free Spins symbols can only be located on reels 1, 3, and 5. Three Scattered symbols will award players with three free spins that return 3x the total bet. During free spins, any symbol can appear as a colossus symbol (3×3), covering the centre of the slot across reels 2 to 4. Any scattered symbol (bonus or free spins) will only land as a colossus symbol and will trigger its feature. A Free Spins colossus symbol will award players with three more free spins and pay x3 the total bet.
The Hold & Hit feature takes this game to the next level. Six or more Scatter bonus symbols will launch the bonus game where the symbols that initiated the feature will remain locked in place for the bonus. Players will begin with three spins and once the empty spots are completed, or when the spins are finished, the game will conclude.
Every spin could see empty spots filled and award players with prizes ranging from x1 – x10 multiplier of the total bet. The Mini Jackpot – pays x25 total bet, Major Jackpot – pays x50 total bet and the Mega Jackpot – pays x250 total bet. Each time a spin has a positive result, the counter will reset the remaining spins to three. Players who complete all 15 spots will secure the Grand Jackpot and a prize of x5000 the total bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Zeus Unchained Hold & Hit combines captivating gameplay with engaging features that deliver a powerful player experience. Our Mythology series is a fan favourite, and this release adds another awesome chapter.”
