kwiff, the super-charged sports betting service, has announced a multi-year partnership with Millwall FC.

kwiff will use its new partnership with Millwall FC to reward supporters through a range of engaging content and matchday activations.

This latest partnership follows the launch of kwiff’s innovative ‘Curfew’ tool, allowing users to customise their platform access restrictions during specific time periods across the day, strengthening their commitment to responsible gaming and giving players greater control over their access. Curfew complements kwiff’s real-time player monitoring system, which tracks behaviour to detect potential risks. kwiff’s efforts in Responsible Gaming have been recognised by GamCare, which awarded the company the ‘Safer Gambling Standard’ certification.

Last season, kwiff sponsored Millwall’s sleeve for the Emirates FA Cup Fifth Round tie against Crystal Palace in March 2025.

Garry McGibbon, Director of Spryme Limited, commented: “It’s great to enter into this partnership with Millwall FC and we’re excited to see how it progresses. The foundation of any strong partnership is the people you work with. If our experience so far is anything to go by, it’s going to be a privilege working with a proper football club with such strong traditions. We’re really looking forward to it.”

Luke Wilson, Commercial Director at The Den, added: “We’re thrilled to be continuing our relationship with kwiff, following on from their sleeve sponsorship of our FA Cup Fifth Round tie last season. Within a competitive market, they have quickly established themselves as a fast-growing and innovative brand. We’re looking forward to working with Garry and his team throughout the coming season as we continue to support the growth of their brand within the UK.”

Jelly, True Rippers BGMI star, speaks out against cyberbullying: calls for a safer, more respectful ecosystem

Jelly, one of India’s leading Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) athletes, representing Infinix True Rippers, has issued an appeal to the esports community to stand against cyberbullying and threats in the esports ecosystem.

Following the BMPS 2025 Semifinals 2, where Jelly was performing with the sole goal of helping his team qualify for the grand finals, the player faced a wave of online hate, including abusive messages and death threats, all for eliminating a rival and his former team.

In a heartfelt statement, Jelly explained: “I am here to qualify just like every other team. If there is a fight against GodLike, I cannot just put my guns down and I also don’t know who is in front of me. Every team on this stage is here to play for victory. I wanted both teams to qualify, theirs and mine, but because of mistakes, neither of us made it. It is not because of one fight alone that things went wrong.”

Jelly also condemned the personal attacks he has faced and appealed for a safer esports ecosystem:

“No player deserves hate or threats for doing their job and competing. We put in countless hours to train, just like any athlete in any sport. We need to stand for fair, safe, and respectful esports, without fear of abuse.”

With esports continuing to grow as a mainstream sport in India, the need for stronger measures to protect players from cyberbullying and online harassment is more crucial than ever. Jelly emphasized that athletes, content creators, and fans deserve a positive, supportive environment to thrive.

The 24-year-old pro has pledged to use his platform to promote safe gaming practices and challenge toxic behavior within the gaming community.

Infinix True Rippers, the team Jelly represents, also extended their support to his statement, reiterating their commitment to building a culture of fairness, mental well-being, and respect in Indian esports.
