LiveScore Group Announces Strategic Acquisition of Tech-Specialist Wonderlabz to Further Fuel Growth

LiveScore Group – the global sports media business – has today announced the full acquisition of South
Africa-based software development specialists Wonderlabz.
The acquisition adds significant scale to LiveScore Group at a time of substantial growth for the business,
accelerating the process of product development as well as increasing the capability to expand into
further key territories.
Wonderlabz has established world-class development credentials centred around its industry-leading
Lithium PAM and back-office platform and renowned software talent and engineers. Specifically, the
business has played a vital role in the evolution of the app and digital platforms for LiveScore Group’s key
brands including LiveScore and LiveScore Bet.
Comprising three brands including LiveScore, one of the world’s leading real-time sports updates and
streaming service providers, and award-winning sportsbooks LiveScore Bet and Virgin Bet, LiveScore
Group has seen record-breaking success through its unique and pioneering model which converges the
worlds of sports media and sports betting.
The Wonderlabz deal comes just over one year after the announcement of a £50 million strategic
investment into LiveScore Group from Swiss-based media and tech firm Ringier AG. The subsequent 12
months have seen LiveScore Group significantly accelerate its global expansion, with this latest acquisition extending its existing holding in Wonderlabz from 25% to 100%. The move substantially increases the Group’s in-house capability and establishes a new tech hub in an emerging market.
Sam Sadi, CEO of LiveScore Group, commented:
“I’m thrilled to announce our acquisition of Wonderlabz, one of the most exciting businesses in the global
software development space. We have grown our relationship with the fantastic people and experts at
Wonderlabz over many years, and their stand-out Lithium PAM platform has played a critical role in the
ongoing success of our industry-leading convergence strategy.
I’m personally excited to work even closer with the team in Cape Town to help continue to develop a
world-class tech hub in the area, one which increases the technical capability of our business and will fuel
the potential for further growth. Welcome to the LiveScore Group family, Wonderlabz.”
Ben Johansen, CEO of the Wonderlabz group added:
“This is a hugely exciting day for Wonderlabz, as we officially join the pioneering LiveScore Group family.
Over recent years we have built an outstanding business centred on world-class software development
talent, working with the likes of LiveScore Group to develop industry-leading tech solutions.
There is no doubt that in LiveScore Group, we join one of the most forward-thinking and innovative
businesses in the sports media and betting worlds. I cannot wait for our people to continue playing a key
role in what comes next.”

ProgressPlay brings forward the future of casino management with revolutionary AI

Once again, casino and sports platform provider ProgressPlay are ahead of their time with a new wave of technology innovation that has helped the company to attend major shows during 2023 with soaring confidence based on pioneering proprietary technological advances that have featured strongly in annual awards shows.
The company’s future-centred thinking and ambitious AI product development attracted a raft of operators and partners attending last week’s SiGMA Europe in Malta. A raft of casino operators during the show had the opportunity to see firsthand ProgressPlay’s new tech which offers a comprehensive gaming management solution across multiple channels and products.
ProgressPlay’s enhanced iGaming platform provides operators with a powerful real-time AI-driven proprietary flow tool for optimising the performance of an online casino in a dynamic data ecosystem. Real-time player interaction provides compliance teams with the information to manage and interact with players.
Last year, ProgressPlay undertook an ambitious reframe of their technology with new proprietary Responsible Gambling automation and tools at its heart. ProgressPlay’s new platform manages player accounts, payments, bonuses, loyalty programs, fraud prevention and games, using robust tools and analytics.
ProgressPlay Sales Manager Marina Nahhas said: “ProgressPlay’s innovative Responsible Gambling software covers topics like KYC, player activity, affordability levels, and a transparent audit trail. These topics resonate heavily with operators and we were delighted with the level of engagement around this revenue-critical activity during the week we spent in Malta.”
ProgressPlay’s combo sportsbook and comprehensive turnkey solution, including casino platform, player management, payments module, and affiliate software are designed to boost operators seeking to effectively drive both revenue and efficiency with the latest cutting-edge technology.
Over 150 online casino brands have partnered with ProgressPlay covering a unique combination of casino games and sports-betting. ProgressPlay’s sportsbook offers up to 40,000 live betting markets and services across 20 languages while the latest platform offers a slick AI-driven UI/UX, and extensive value-added services alongside thousands of casino games, including slots, online casino, live casino, poker, table games, and sportsbook, across all devices and currencies.
ProgressPlay CEO Itai Loewenstein said: “Commercial agreements are being driven by our breakthrough technology that enables deployment of our AI tools for greater efficiency and revenue-generation. SiGMA Europe has been the last stop in a busy year and we believe that since we first launched our new technology in London at the beginning of the year our sophisticated Responsible Gambling tool has quickly moved beyond the early-adopter stage.”

SiGMA Europe 2023 in Malta: Slotegrator shares key insights

Every year, SiGMA Europe gathers iGaming professionals together to connect, share insights, and sum up the year. This year, the event was visited by over 20,000 participants from over 100 countries. The Slotegrator team found the trip to be truly inspirational and is ready to share its insights.
SiGMA Europe was the best place to summarize the results of 2023. For Slotegrator, this year was dedicated to researching customers’ requirements and desires, players’ interests, and industry tendencies. Throughout the year, Slotegrator visited events in four huge iGaming markets – Africa, Asia, LatAm and Europe – to get a clear picture of what those markets are like.
At each of these events, the team gathered firsthand knowledge on how to improve Slotegrator’s flagship products and provide even better service to the company’s clients.
At SiGMA Europe 2023 in Malta, the Slotegrator team presented new features of its turnkey online casino platform and the phenomenal mobile solution – Telegram Casino – which was first presented by Slotegrator in 2017 and updated in 2022.
Slotegrator’s top managers also had plenty of meetings with partners about the company’s APIgrator solution – a unique solution for the fast and seamless integration of online casino games into gambling platforms. The solution incorporates more than 15,000 various slots, card games, live dealer games, and virtual sports from 100 world’s leading developers. In 2024, Slotegrator will present to the market plenty of new partnerships with providers from different parts of the world.
“SiGMA Europe 2023 was a great event for our team, as usual. To gather in such a great place to meet partners, to summarize preliminary results of the year, to outline plans for the future – it was the right decision,” says Yana Khaidukova, Managing Director at Slotegrator.
Slotegrator mentions that the composition of the iGaming world is changing: new companies have already appeared and will continue to appear not only for occuping a part of the existing market, but they form new niches, as they come with new spectacular offers and solutions. It is the reason why the competition increases many times, and it gives the industry new directions of development.
As for providers, their number is increasing very rapidly. Small companies are growing into large ones, which shows the success of their solutions, and new companies come with fresh ideas, games and experience that players like.
One trend that is only going to increase is the interest in crash games. Prominent studios are introducing new examples of fresh crash games. Leaders, who are already successful in this niche, such as Aviatrix, continue to modify their crash game and expand it into new markets and continue to win the hearts of new players by providing them with an amazing gaming experience.
According to the Slotegrator’s observations, many Asian companies took part in SiGMA Europe 2023, which suggests that the Asian vector will be very popular next year.
Here are some additional key insights from SiGMA Europe that the company will carry into next year:
- Responsible Gaming is growing more and more important to players, operators, and regulators.
- It’s essential to embrace innovation. New technologies can let operators offer players more choices and solve problems faster and more effectively.
- Operators need to keep increasing their security and anti-fraud measures. Scammers are always on the lookout for new ways to defraud casinos, so operators need to try and stay a few steps ahead of them.
- Players want to be a part of a community. Platform operators should create a welcoming atmosphere by offering features like multiplayer chats where players can connect with each other.
- It’s essential that online casinos show loyal players their appreciation. Better bonuses can keep players coming back, as well as referral programs where players earn rewards for bringing in new leads.
- Cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and blockchain tech in general are here to stay. Finding ways to integrate them can help you offer your players a better, more modern experience.
- Player behavior should be constantly analyzed in order to identify trends and enhance player retention strategies.
As for the last point, Slotegrator is set to release internal reports on the state of the industry that provide an analysis of player behavior and predictions for the development of the industry in 2024.
