3 Year Renewal Deal between Markor Technology and FSB
Markor Technology, the premier casino gaming aggregation platform and solutions provider for the iGaming industry, has announced that it has reached an agreement with global sportsbook and iGaming provider, FSB, to extend their partnership for a further three years.
As a result of the extended deal, Markor will continue to supply FSB with casino content through its aggregation platform, with this in turn granting all FSB powered operators access to the brand’s extensive list of over 6,000 slots, table games and other casino titles.
FSB is one of the fastest growing, multi-regional sports betting and iGaming providers and is the recipient of multiple industry awards in recent years.
Markor Technology, meanwhile, is one of the fastest-growing game aggregators in the online casino space and currently boasts over 75+ software providers. The brand is known for its fast and flexible content delivery and is currently certified to distribute games in a number of key markets, including Malta, Gibraltar, the UK and Spain.
Given FSB’s global outreach, this strong licensing accreditation has been a key aspect of the pair’s partnership to date and a big reason why both parties have been so keen to extend their existing relationship. Now officially signed up until 2025, both Markor and FSB are excited to continue working together and hope to help many more casino operators enhance their brands going forward.
Melissa Summerfield, Chief Executive Officer at Markor Technology, said: “Having enjoyed great success working with FSB in the past, we’re delighted to announce that we’ll be extending our existing agreement to supply casino content to the technology company for an additional three years.
“FSB are a business with significant iGaming experience on a global scale, and sharing our rich and varied portfolio of over 6,000 casino titles with them will enable the group to continue providing a market-leading service to all of its online partners in the regulated markets that we currently cover.”
Brendan Courtney, Head of Casino Integrations at FSB, said: “We are passionate about delivering rich iGaming experiences to our global partners, so it’s vital we continue to align with the industry’s leading casino providers. This renewed strategic partnership with Markor enables us to further strengthen our comprehensive casino product.

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.
