Leading payment provider DIMOCO has become the first authorised provider of carrier billing to the regulated igaming industry in Germany, with NEO.bet set to be the first operator to offer the payment option in the country.
DIMOCO already provides the mobile payment method to sportsbooks in Poland and Austria, with its clients including leading Polish sports betting company STS. To enter the igaming market in Germany, it joined forces with NEO.bet parent company Greenvest Betting Limited to apply to the Gemeinsame Glücksspielbehörde der Länder (GGL) for approval.
DIMOCO is licensed by Austria’s Financial Markets Authority and has pioneered a model whereby mobile network operators (MNOs) act as its agents, meaning they are able to accept payments outside what’s usually permitted under EU regulations. Under this agent model, DIMOCO is responsible for compliance and carries out the KYC process on bettors for igaming companies.
Now DIMOCO’s model has received official accreditation from the GGL, licensed German sports betting and casino operators will be able to accept carrier billing payments up to standard player limits.

“We are honoured to have received official approval for our unique offering from the GGL and this recognition reinforces our dedication to providing secure and efficient payment solutions for the rapidly evolving German igaming industry,” Bettina Sommer, Senior Vice-President of Sales at DIMOCO.

“Based on our experience in other European countries, we believe the addition of direct carrier billing will be very welcome in Germany, particularly given the country’s extremely high level of smartphone penetration. Germans are known for favouring alternative methods of payment over credit and debit cards, and also for preferring simplified payment systems. Therefore, we expect the option to pay seamlessly from their mobile account to be very popular among players.
“In addition, due to the stringent requirements of both the GGL and mobile network operators, carrier billing will only be available to licensed operators. We therefore view it as something that could give regulated sportsbooks and casinos an advantage against unlicensed companies, which both the regulator and the government have expressed a desire to expel from the German market.”

Galina Werner, Managing Director at Greenvest Betting Limited, said: “We are excited that NEO.bet will be the first sports betting provider in Germany to offer carrier billing. The process of gaining approval from the GGL was lengthy and rigorous and DIMOCO proved the ideal partner to help us navigate this. We look forward to working together now this promising new payment option is authorised.”

1spin4win presents a new Samurai tale in the Japanese saga with Way of Honor Hold and Win

Published

on

Reading Time: 2 minutes

1spin4win, a classic online slot provider, unfolds the Japanese novel with Way of Honor Hold and Win — the third chapter of the series, revealing the Samurai part of the story.

The new title has been selected for exclusive pre-release by partner casinos, including Irwin, Gizbo, Jet, Izzi, and Fresh. This follows the pattern set by the two earlier entries in the series — Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win, the top-performing April release by bet sum, and Gentle Fox Hold and Win. This indicates that the collection’s blend of well-balanced gameplay and captivating storytelling continues to resonate with the audience.

Being the third installment of the saga, Way of Honor Hold and Win advances the narrative by giving voice to yet-unheard characters — honorable samurai Mizuiro and Midoriiro. Devoted warriors, they pledged unwavering loyalty to the shogun and the powerful Masahide family. Their moral compass is the Way of Honor — a sacred samurai code that guides them to defend the ruler’s right to maintain peace and the balance of power. Every day, at the crack of dawn, the samurai rise to protect the shogun’s castle and ancient scrolls that hold the secrets of longevity.

Olga Bogdanova, the Art Director at 1spin4win, shared, “Way of Honor Hold and Win is a worthy continuation of our Japanese slot series, united by a shared storyline. By crafting a rich and detailed samurai-themed narrative, we aimed to offer players more than just standard reel-spinning. Instead, we invite them to become active participants in the story, who can take sides, make decisions, and influence the course of events. We hope they enjoy the game’s immersive atmosphere and generous winning opportunities.”

However, the meticulously crafted plot is only one of the things the latest Japanese slot can boast. It remains faithful to 1spin4win’s key hallmarks — well-balanced math, transparent mechanics, and minimalist design. Way of Honor Hold and Win is a medium-volatility game featuring 243 paylines, a 97.1% RTP, and a x1,300 max multiplier.

The main attraction of the new title is the Hold and Win round, popular with players for the thrill of anticipation and the chance to win big. Triggered by three or more gold Coins on the 5×3 layout, the Bonus game offers three starting respins and two Jackpots — the x100 Minipot Coin or the x1,000 Megapot.
