ROOTZ INTRODUCES WILDZ SPORTS AND STREAMING

Rootz flagship brand Wildz has received a supercharged upgrade. In a bold move that challenges the industry standard, the online casino platform now boasts a complete sportsbook offering for punters to enjoy, the first Rootz brand to do so. While other operators separate their online casino and sportsbook offerings, Wildz hosts the sports platform in the same digital space with a casino look and feel to enhance the player experience. The platform will host 24/7 Live Streaming and a vibrant community engagement space.
The competitive edge
Wildz has gained immense popularity in the five years since the brand was launched, introducing the iconic Granny character and striking purple and gold branding. Customers can expect the same cutting-edge technology that drives seamless experiences as they explore their favourite sports, ranging from football to ice hockey, with a few surprise sports options in between, including horse racing and eSports. The new-look site allows users to watch engaging streamer content, podcasts and more, and the chance to engage via live chat.
Wildz Sportsbook
Wildz players will see a full sportsbook on offer, with a chance to engage in sports bets and other sports-themed entertainment products. Wildz sportsbook comes with a new customised front end, assisted by Altenar.

The sportsbook card layout is designed to present the product so that it’s familiar to our casino players, offering a pleasing UX designed to appeal to an existing customer base and new users. It’s a modern, fun and unique approach. This card layout can be adjusted to suit different markets: for example, Canadian players like to see a six-card option, while other markets may want to see a more comprehensive selection of cards on the page.
-
Wildz Sports offers a Bet of the Day function: a superboosted bet with 50+ different boosted odds provided on the side
-
Within the sportsbook, there’s the free-to-play Predictor game (hosted by Splash) and access to the famous eSports lobby.
-
There are Wildz-owned customised bets. These quirky, fun offerings have proven popular within the global sportsbook market.
-
Personalisation is a Wildz must-have; there’s a For You widget representing trending bets according to turnover. This freedom to personalise the presentation allows Wildz to focus on market-specific sports, such as generating interest around (ice) hockey in Finland and Canada.
-
There are Shared Bets and Influencer Bets to increase player engagement to be shared inside the stream.
Rootz CEO Sam Brown is buoyant about the new-look Wildz platform: “The Wildz marketing payoff line has always been Get More, and that’s exactly what customers can expect. Not only can they enjoy the world-class online casino experience they’ve come to expect, they can have a go at a competitive sports wager if they choose to. This is entertainment quite unlike anything that’s been offered before; we’re confident that Wildz will lead the way for our own brands and as a benchmark to our competitors. Our immediate goal is to expand the Wildz offering across all our markets so that players can tap into the full suite of experiences worldwide.
Brown continues: it has taken months of preparation by our talented teams to get this vision off the ground, and we’re finally seeing the fruits of our efforts. When you examine the way we’ve presented our brand new sportsbook offering, you’ll see it’s unlike any other brand in the marketplace. Not only do we have seamless payment options, but we’ve also taken the big step of bringing our customer service fully in-house so that we can closely monitor the platform’s CX and continue to match our players’ high expectations. Above all, we believe we’ve boosted the fun to unprecedented levels”.
Wildz was the first online casino brand released by Rootz, followed by the other popular casino brands Wheelz, Casino, Spinz, and Chipz, with offerings varying according to different international markets.
Mark Simmonds, Head of Sportsbook at Rootz, offers his perspective on the launch: “Wildz was founded by sports lovers, so it has long been our objective to offer a sports betting product that builds on our existing success. Hosting the sportsbook on the same platform makes it easier for players to exercise their preferences; they can enjoy a few spins on the slots and then place bets on their favourite sports & competitions. They don’t need to go through the hassle of registering for another site. We’ve chosen to frame our sportsbook in a format that’s recognisable to our casino players and in such a way that fans of both styles of gaming can enjoy the whole package in one space.
“Wildz has become a one-stop spot for gambling entertainment. Our overarching goal is to deliver a ground-breaking experience that exceeds expectations, inspiring new standards as creators of the go-to digital playground, where simplicity meets adrenaline”.
No stranger to awards, Wildz has accrued numerous accolades during its time as an online casino under the banner of Rootz. These accolades reflect the brand’s ability to stand out among a host of competitor platforms, an indication of the standout performance from the development and content teams behind the name, under the watchful eye of leading finance, compliance, and responsible gaming teams.
The company maintains an ongoing commitment to work with regulators within the respective markets in which it operates, ensuring that player protection is always a priority, a position which is set to secure customer confidence when it comes to this latest development.
Sam Brown concludes: “Players are spoiled for choice when it comes to iGaming brands, but not all brands are equal. We are convinced that Wildz will offer the best of all worlds for our customers and that we have something special to rival the world’s top operators”.

ACR POKER’S NEXT HIGH STAKES ADVENTURE TAKES PLAYERS TO MONTENEGRO FOR PRESTIGIOUS SUPER HIGH ROLLER SERIES
Two $110,000+ Montenegro packages available during ACR Poker’s Main Satellite on Sunday, April 27th
The next chapter of ACR Poker’s High Stakes Adventure is taking shape. Two players are set to win their way to stunning Montenegro in Southeast Europe to compete against top poker pros and high stakes legends for huge prizes during the prestigious Super High Roller Series, scheduled for May 13th to 27th.
Through ACR Poker’s Main Satellite on Sunday, April 27th at 2:05pm ET, the High Stakes Adventure: Montenegro is guaranteeing two all-inclusive packages, each covering $110,000 in tournament buy-ins / entry fees, plus added business-class airfare, and a 5-night stay at the luxurious Maestral Resort & Casino.
“The High Stakes Adventure is all about creating opportunities for players to escape the ordinary and play alongside poker’s elite in incredible destinations,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “I can still feel the energy from my deep run in Montenegro last year, and I’ve got a good feeling this event is going to be just as unforgettable. If you missed your chance to win a South Korea package earlier this year, this is your chance to get in the game.”
Moneymaker is no stranger to the high-stakes scene in Montenegro, having won last year’s Triton Poker Super High Roller Series $25,000 buy-in event for $903,000. Meanwhile, fellow ACR Pro Nacho Barbero also made waves this year during the Triton Poker Super High Roller Series Jeju, finishing 7th in the $100,000 buy-in Main Event, earning $946,000, plus cashing in four other events.
The High Stakes Adventure: Montenegro package winners will have the flexibility to split their $110,000 buy-in budget across multiple events or go all-in on a single high-stakes tourney. Off the felt, players can look forward to exploring Montenegro’s rich history, stunning landscapes and vibrant culture.
This latest satellite follows the success of ACR Poker’s High Stakes Adventure: South Korea earlier this year, where two $110,000 packages were awarded to players for the Super High Roller Series Jeju. Players looking to follow in their footsteps and compete for the Montenegro packages can buy into the Main Satellite for $2,650 or qualify for less through satellites running on ACR Poker this month.
