Delaware North, a global hospitality and entertainment company with a portfolio of regional casinos and an interactive gaming division, has selected leading online gaming platform, content and services provider Playtech to power its Betly mobile sportsbook and casino.

Playtech is the new platform provider for the Betly sportsbooks, starting with Betly Ohio, which launched this month and replaces MVGBet in an affiliate license partnership with Miami Valley Gaming, a Delaware North joint-venture property located between Cincinnati and Dayton. The Betly sportsbooks in Arkansas, Tennessee and West Virginia, a state where Betly also offers an online casino in addition to sports betting, will be migrated to the Playtech platform in the coming months.

“We are very pleased to partner with Playtech to provide Betly customers with an enhanced mobile sports betting and online casino experience powered by an industry leader,” said Lee Terfloth, chief interactive gaming officer for Delaware North. 

“Not only that, but our team can now offer players robust promotional features through the Playtech platform, which will allow Betly to offer customers an array of enticing and personalized offerings, including bonus bets, boosts, drawings and tournaments. As a result, customers will experience tailored content to engage them based on their historical betting activity,” Terfloth said.

Responsible Gaming

Betly is committed to promoting and encouraging responsible gaming and offering users informational resources to support and identify problem gambling, as well as promoting intelligent tools that allow players to set deposit, loss, session time and money-spent limits.

With the migration to the Playtech platform, Delaware North has access to the suite of Playtech’s responsible gaming solutions. This includes BetBuddy, which features best-in-class responsible gaming technology that provides enhanced insights into potential at-risk player behaviors and supports operators with the insights to enable early intervention and personalized messaging for those exhibiting at-risk behavior.

Delaware North has also partnered with Birches Health, a leading national behavioral addiction program providing online treatment for addictions to gambling, sports betting and other activities. Through this relationship, Delaware North will integrate customized behavioral health assessments into the Betly application. This will provide individuals on the platform a real digital resource to gauge their relationship with gaming and seek help from certified mental health counselors. Birches Health will provide all Delaware North staff with clinician-led responsible gaming training and access to curated responsible gaming content.

The Betly Sportsbook Ohio statewide mobile sports betting app is now live on Apple App Store for iOS, Google Play Storefor Android and on desktop at oh.betly.com.

Industry-first: Dynamic, ‘Live Data’ feature in ads drives up to 20% growth in first-time depositors for iGaming customers

Industry-first: Dynamic, ‘Live Data’ feature in ads drives up to 20% growth in first-time depositors for iGaming customers

 

  • Creatopy’s new Live Data feature connects creative assets to real-time data streams, enabling brands to deliver ads that update automatically based on live variables such as odds, pricing, availability or performance metrics
  • iGaming customers experience up to a 20% uplift in first-time depositors in the first 3 months of their campaign
  • Superbet is the latest company to adopt this new feature
  • Initial Live Data release also popular among travel, finance, retail and entertainment sectors
  • This news also follows a series of senior leadership appointments, including: Maikao Grare (CFO), Thibault Imbert (Chief Product & Growth Officer) and Ovidiu Gavril (CTO)
AI-powered ad campaign platform Creatopy has launched Live Data, a new feature that connects creative assets to real-time data streams.
An industry-first solution, it has already demonstrated significant results for the iGaming industry with an increase of up to 20% in first-time depositors observed over a 3-month period.
Live Data enables brands to deliver dynamic online ads that automatically update based on live variables such as odds, pricing, availability or performance metrics. There is no need for manual intervention. Once a design template has been created, the published ad can be updated automatically based on the parameters set. For iGaming companies, this can be a specific game or an entire competition; the tool can also dynamically display stocks and casino games based on current trends and performance.
The new solution offers several key advantages for advertisers, including:
  • Personalisation: allowing for ad delivery that precisely aligns with real-time audience interests, shifting market conditions or changes in available inventory.
  • Real-time performance: displaying up-to-the-minute prices, availability or exclusive offers, which in turn create a sense of urgency and significantly boost conversion rates.
  • Transparent metrics: showcasing verifiable, live information directly within the ad creative – this fosters greater trust and authenticity with consumers.
Superbet, an international gambling company, has become the latest to adopt Creatopy’s tech.
While the initial release focuses on the iGaming and gambling industry, Live Data offers a wide range of applications across various sectors, including Travel with live pricing for flights and hotels; finance with real-time stock movements or FX rates; and entertainment with live streaming stats and event availability.
Tammy Nam, CEO at Creatopy, said: “With Live Data, we’re making ads truly real-time. While static ads have their benefits, they can’t capture live market changes. Live Data changes that. By displaying real-time updates, marketers can expand the lifespan of their campaigns, ensuring that as circumstances change, the ads reflect the most current data and messaging. This isn’t about personalization someday but about delivering the right message, informed by the latest data, at the exact moment that matters most. This continued relevance is a key driver behind the 20% increase in first-time deposits that we’re witnessing with our iGaming customers.”
The launch follows a series of appointments to the company’s senior executive team, including Maikao Grare as the new Chief Financial Officer, Thibault Imbert as Chief Product and Growth Officer, and Ovidiu Gavril as Chief Technology Officer.
With over 15 years of experience in product management and growth at leading technology companies including Picsart, Adobe and GitHub, Imbert is responsible for overseeing product strategy, development and execution, as well as leading the company’s growth initiatives to expand its market reach and impact.
Grare brings over 20 years of experience scaling high-growth startups and is helping to accelerate the company’s momentum, shape long-term strategy, and support international expansion. Most recently, Grare served as Vice President of FP&A and Strategic Finance at MasterClass, and SVP of Finance at Picsart before that. Grare has also held top finance roles at Bolt Threads, Rdio and Skype.
Gavril brings a wealth of tech leadership experience from prominent tech companies, including Raft, Picsart, Trilogy, Jive Software, Crossover for Work, Optivia and Wave Motion Labs. Gavril’s appointment signals Creatopy’s strong commitment to accelerating its technological advancements with AI at its center. As CTO, Gavril will lead the company’s engineering and technology strategy, drive innovation, and expand the platform’s capabilities to further empower marketers with sophisticated AI-driven tools.

PHAI Files Lawsuit in Pennsylvania Over Caesars’ Dangerous Online Casino Promotion and “Pay Through Bonuses”

Published

on

 

The Public Health Advocacy Institute (PHAI), a nonprofit advocacy organization that continues to lead the movement to develop a comprehensive public health response to the threat posed by the gambling industry, announced a new lawsuit filed in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, seeking to expose and stop an alleged dangerous, misleading, and illegal “deposit match” promotion by Caesars Online Casino and its brick-and-mortar partner Harrah’s Philadelphia Casino.

In this promotion, Caesars and its partners are luring new customers with a false and misleading promise of a “$2500 deposit match,” according to the lawsuit. Only in the small-print terms and conditions is it disclosed that a new customer playing Blackjack is required to gamble and risk $375,000 in just the first seven days after opening an account. In other words, no money or winnings can be withdrawn unless a total of $375,000 is gambled and risked. All money lost during the first 7-day period is kept by Caesars and Harrah’s Casino.

The lawsuit alleged that Caesars and its partners have effectively rewritten the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania by mandating that new customers gamble up to $375,000 before being paid any of their winnings. The public is not told that the promotion is designed to snare new customers in a “wild chase of action,” where the bonus is unattainable and therefore impossible to win.

Under the leadership of Executive Director Mark Gottlieb, PHAI continues to spearhead the burgeoning movement to bring comprehensive public health change to the threat posed by the gambling industry and its partners across the US.

Gottlieb said: “We know the gambling industry, with the assistance of the American Gaming Association (AGA) and the National Council of Legislators from Gaming States (NCLGS), is aggressively attempting to push the legalization of online casino gambling across the United States. Thus far, the seven states with online casino gambling seem ill-prepared or unwilling to regulate the wild tactics of the industry. This promotion, engineered by Caesars, is among the most egregious we have seen to date.”

Dr. Harry Levant, Director of Gambling Policy at PHAI, warned that Caesars and others in the gambling industry are acting with impunity, disregarding existing laws, and placing the public directly at risk.

According to Dr. Levant: “It is unconscionable for a gambling company to knowingly require people to gamble excessively and put their mental health at risk as a condition to cash out their winnings. More importantly, nothing in Pennsylvania’s gambling rules or laws permits a casino to refuse payment unless and until customers begin gambling to excess. This is dangerous to Caesar’s customers, immoral, and just plain wrong.”

PHAI Director of Litigation Andrew Rainer, Esq., said: “PHAI continues to utilize the courts to protect clients and the public from unreasonable risks of harm caused by the negligent, careless, and reckless conduct of the gambling industry.”

PHAI Founder and President. Dr. Richard Daynard said: “The mission of the Public Health Advocacy Institute is to protect public health and advance social justice. The days of the gambling industry disregarding public health and safety are coming to an end. When Caesars doesn’t play fair, it puts players’ health at risk.”

The case is Brubaker vs Chester Downs and Marina LLC et al. (Ct of Common Pleas, Philadelphia County, First Judicial District, Case ID 250602325).

In December 2023, PHAI and its Center for Public Health Litigation filed a class action suit against DraftKings in Massachusetts that garnered nationwide headlines. In August 2024, a judge in Massachusetts denied DraftKings’ motion to dismiss, allowing the litigation to move forward.

In October 2024, PHAI filed a lawsuit against the Massachusetts Gaming Commission, asking the court to compel the MGC to adhere to state law and turn over data that casinos compile to track player behavior. Under Section 97 of the Expanded Gaming Act, the Massachusetts Gaming Commission is required to collect behavioral data from casino operators and share anonymized customer data with researchers. This data is essential for analyzing what casino practices are causing harm and who is being harmed. The Gaming Commission has been subject to the legal requirement to collect this data since its formation in 2011. Now, more than a decade later, the Commission has yet to collect a single piece of data from any licensee or make any data available to researchers.
