New deal sees provider secure distinctive content for third-party games portfolio

Games Global, a leading supplier of iGaming content, has signed an exclusive 12-month deal with Playbook Fusion, a provider of innovative sports-themed betting games, to bring the highly anticipated Playbook Football™ to its third-party platform.

Combing the most popular game mechanics from the gambling and video gaming industries, the title is a unique football strategy betting game that offers players the opportunity to build their own football team, compete in matches, earn in-game rewards, and climb divisions throughout a season, all whilst placing in-game bets.

Users can customise their experience by selecting their team’s nationality, name, badge, and kit colours. Starting in Division 10, contenders will aim for promotion and to win Division 1 by managing their squad’s performance and team chemistry throughout the season.

During match play, opponents are selected from either a pool of AI teams or from a pool of other player’s teams in the game. Comparative team statistics are displayed, and betting markets are generated based on these rankings.

Bets can be placed on various different markets, including match result, under/over goals, correct score, and first/last/anytime goal scorer.

As players place bets, they will earn XP that accumulates across sessions, unlocking rewards that boost team performance including player packs and boost cards.

Playbook Football™ diversifies Games Global’s portfolio with a product that is already generating significant operator interest, with the potential to become a market-leading title. The partnership exemplifies Games Global’s commitment to offering cutting-edge, engaging content to its operator partners across the globe.

Andy Booth, Chief Product Officer at Games Global, said: “We are always on the lookout for fresh, unique opportunities that can elevate our offering.

Founder of RR Group announces the launch of a new brand – iKon., a first-of-its-kind solution in performance marketing. Unlike anything currently on the market, iKon. is revolutionizing the industry by eliminating traditional media buying from the equation. Instead of buying traffic, we offer performance-driven creatives on a revenue-share basis – a radical departure from the conventional agency model.

Founded by Nikolai Belikov, a recognized industry expert, and backed by a team of experienced specialists, iKon. focuses on helping brands enhance their strategies, improve performance, and navigate the ever-changing digital industry with precision and confidence. iKon. does not compete with in-house teams – it strengthens them. Through strategic guidance, creative expertise, and comprehensive education, brands gain the ability to enhance their internal operations rather than relinquish control. The focus is not on short-term media buying but on establishing trusted partnerships and long-term success.

The industry is saturated with media-buying agencies, yet their fundamental approach remains unchanged: buy traffic, optimize, repeat. Recognizing the limitations of traditional models, iKon. has redefined the approach to performance marketing. Rather than hiring buyers or allocating massive budgets to ad spend, iKon. focuses on creativity, strategic execution, and performance optimization in ways unmatched by any other player in the industry.

By removing the reliance on media buyers, iKon. has developed a model that places brands firmly in control. With a focus on creative production, anti-fraud strategies, strategic consulting, and media optimization, iKon. provides a comprehensive framework for sustainable and scalable growth.

The Four Pillars of iKon.’s Success

What sets iKon. apart? A results-driven methodology built on four fundamental pillars:

  • High-Impact Creative Solutions – Creativity determines success in a competitive digital landscape. iKon. develops performance-driven creatives that do more than capture attention – they engage, convert, and drive measurable revenue growth. With deep expertise in iGaming, iKon. crafts content designed for impact.
  • Strategic Consulting – Leveraging deep industry knowledge, iKon. helps brands identify blind spots, optimize internal workflows, and implement anti-fraud measures to maximize ROI. With media buying and marketing expertise, the team ensures every advertising dollar works harder and smarter.
  • Resale & Media Optimization – Strong partnerships with top-tier advertising sources allow iKon. to unlock new opportunities in media space utilization. Through a refined approach to resale strategies and ad account management, iKon. enables brands to maximize underutilized assets, enhance media efficiency, and generate additional revenue streams without direct involvement in traffic acquisition.
  • Brand Performance Optimization – Success isn’t just about visibility – it’s about sustainability. iKon. builds high-performance marketing ecosystems that fuel long-term brand growth and profitability.

Industry Pioneers at the Helm

Behind iKon. is a team of seasoned digital specialists, each selected for their expertise and ability to drive measurable impact.

With summer fast approaching, the Plaza Hotel & Casino is bringing back Las Vegas’ only all-inclusive hotel room package starting June 1 at $125 per person per night.

The Plaza introduced its all-inclusive hotel room package last summer. It was so well received by guests that the iconic downtown Las Vegas property is bringing the all-inclusive offer back and extending it for all of June, July and August.

“At a time when tourists are concerned about increasing costs in Las Vegas, including resort fees and paying to park, we wanted to give our guests a more affordable summer vacation option by again offering our all-inclusive hotel room package,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino.

The Plaza’ all-inclusive hotel room package waives all resort fees. Guests will enjoy free access to the fitness center, rooftop pool, and self-parking. The package also includes bottomless drinks from the Omaha Bar and Sports Book Bar on the casino floor and breakfast and dinner from various dining outlets.

With free access to the rooftop pool, guests can also enjoy the pool’s new amenities including:

  • Conveniently located next to the pool’s full-service cocktail bar, the Plaza Pool’s Food Truck will also be open all summer long offering light bites like street tacos, hummus & pita, and fruit cups, as well as more hearty fare like pizzas, hot dogs, burgers, and wraps.
  • Ice cream treats have been added to the retail concessions sold in the pool lobby.

To take advantage of the Plaza’s all-inclusive hotel room package, rooms must be booked online by Aug. 29 for a stay June 1 through Aug. 30.
