In our own 'wrapped' style round-up, the Global Gaming Insider team reviews the biggest developments across EMEA, the Americas and APAC.
The supplier has named David Mann as chief executive from January 2026. The move follows Playnetic's first two years of regulated market expansion across Europe and North America.
While the Wrapped-style retrospectives are popular across several different media, would it be wise for iGaming to hop on the trend?
Fekete most recently served as Senior Product Market Manager EMEA for IGT, overseeing the development and deployment of land-based machines across Eastern and Western Europe.
The operator is expected to spend significantly higher than the previously stated £250m on its IT upgrade.
The aggregation supplier has expanded its live casino offering through a new partnership with Winfinity, as it continues to build out its regulated-market footprint across Europe and Latin America.
Hacksaw Gaming has launched its content portfolio on Glitnor Group's OneCasino platform, bringing its games to players across Denmark, Spain, the Netherlands and other locally licensed European markets.
From Spain to Lithuania, gambling operators and affiliates have faced increasing marketing restrictions over the years. How are they pivoting?
Despite representing a 16.5% increase from the prior year period, Spain's online gambling revenue for the third quarter of 2025 also equates to a 1.4% decrease from Q2 2025.
The operator has disclosed a significant fraud incident affecting its Spanish brands Enracha and Yo, with the financial impact expected to be treated as a separately disclosed item in its 2025/26 results.
