Sisal extends its horse betting portfolio with XB Net’s premium North American racing content

Italian giant supplements its U.S. horse racing data package by the leading Stateside supplier
XB Net, the leading provider of premium content for North American horse racing, has finalized a new agreement to provide its US racing content to the powerhouse Italian operator, Sisal.
The deal deploys an extended range of XB Net’s live pictures, data and betting services from a peerless network of over 60 North American tracks (over 75% of U.S. horse racing) allowing Sisal to flexibly fill its programming timetable with a prolific pipeline of rapid-cycling betting opportunities which are proven to enhance engagement for new and existing fans of the sport.
Sisal is constantly updating its sports-betting services by optimising its user interface across the brand’s web and mobile platforms to elevate the customer experience. Its sportsbook is operated in partnership with MST, whose proprietary platform offers clients everything necessary with which to run a responsible betting business across online, mobile and retail.
The daily schedule of engaging content, which neatly complements Italy’s domestic racing action, provides Sisal with a reliable source of fast-settling betting content between 18:00 and 05:00 CET. This immersive action is proven to capture and retain the attention of audiences during competitive digital-entertainment cycles, driving new revenue streams across many of the planet’s most prestigious horse races. These include the Pegasus World Cup, and two legs of this summer’s recent Triple Crown, featuring the Preakness and Belmont Stakes, alongside the season’s flagship finale at the Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Del Mar (5-6 November).
XB Net is the proven pacesetter for live North American racing content, managing international rights, data, odds and live broadcast and video streaming on behalf of its growing global portfolio of partners. Harnessing low-latency feeds from more than 2,500 meetings, showcasing over 25,000 races per year, North American racing is engaging more and more bettors as worldwide operators plug the gaps on an uncertain sporting calendar.
Currently working with many of the world’s leading fixed-odds, spread-betting and commingled wagering companies (such as Flutter Entertainment, bet365, William Hill, Playtech and Entain) XB Net enjoys a growing geographic footprint in mature and emerging markets across Europe, the UK & Ireland, Asia, North and Central America, and Australia.
Massimo Temperelli, Managing Director of Betting at Sisal, said:Ā “During recent lockdowns, our customers soon came to appreciate the fresh excitement and value that US racing brings to their betting experience, providing a trustworthy and regular flow of quick-fire betting opportunities which hit the mark, whether they’re interested in watching one race or the entire card.
“Since Italy’s daily domestic racing is primed to transition neatly into high-quality evening meetings stateside, top-class 24/7 programming is now the new normal for our players, thanks to this developing collaboration with XB Net and their expertise in wagering solutions. We can’t wait to see how these progressive products continue to perform over the forthcoming highlights, like the Breeders’ Cup World Championships.”
Simon Fraser, Senior Vice President of International at XB Net, added:Ā “Sisal is a giant brand whose expertise and trademark customer care is best in class. Therefore, it’s a perfect moment to partner with their optimised Italian sportsbook, which has quickly embraced the merits and utility of North American racing. While domestic racing is back in full swing in Italy, those players who were drawn to North American racing during the pandemic have mostly been retained which represents another key validation of our product.
“Wherever you set your scene in the world, deliveringĀ the right content at peak leisure-times remains paramountĀ during a new era of variability for any sportsbook tab.Ā XB Net’s wide range of low-latency racing solutions and racetracks are now ensuring the requisite elasticity for Sisal.”

Jogo da Zebra: The Most Thrilling Version of the Classic Minesweeper Arrives from Vibra Gaming

Vibra Gaming, the leading game and platform developer in the LatAm market, unveils its latest and most exciting release: Jogo da Zebra, a high-adrenaline experience where every click can multiply your winnings. Designed especially for the Brazilian audience, this game reimagines the classic Minesweeper with visuals and gameplay that resonate with local culture.
The game unfolds on a 5×5 grid with 25 hidden tiles. Players can choose how much to bet and how many zebras will appear on the board, directly influencing the level of risk and potential rewards.
To win, players click on the tiles to reveal golden squares, increasing their bet multiplier. At any moment, they can cash out and secure their winnings before encountering a zebra.
The game also incorporates innovative mechanics to enhance the excitement. By selecting the number of hidden zebras on the board (from 1 to 20), players can adjust the difficulty and raise the prize multiplier as they progress. Additionally, if a zebra is revealed followed by a heart, the game grants an extra life, allowing the player to continue without ending the round. This unique feature adds a new layer of thrill and strategy, as only one extra life can be earned per game.
Jogo da Zebra also includes a Turbo Button, which speeds up tile reveals for a more dynamic gaming experience. A Cash Out button allows players to stop and collect their winnings before risking another click.
Ramiro Atucha, CEO of Vibra Gaming, commented: “Jogo da Zebra combines the nostalgia of a classic with captivating gameplay and big rewards. Itās the perfect game for thrill-seekers who enjoy risk, where every click can make a difference in winning big. We developed it with the Brazilian audience in mind, incorporating a local theme that connects with their culture and gaming preferences.”

ADG PSA: Consumer Protection Alert ā Rise in ļ»æFraudulent Online Casinos Targeting Arizonans

The Arizona Department of Gaming (āADGā) is issuing this Consumer Protection Alert to inform Arizonans of a concerning nationwide trend that has now reached Arizona. Fraudulent operators are falsely claiming that legitimate Arizona casinos have launched online gaming platforms. These illegal online casino platforms are presenting themselves as legitimate platforms by offering illegitimate or illegal gaming services. Online casinos (often referred to as āigamingā) are not legal in Arizona. Any claims otherwise should be treated as highly suspicious. These scams not only put players at financial risk but also undermine the integrity of Arizonaās regulated gaming industry.
ADG has received multiple reports of fraudulent online casinos targeting Arizonans, as well as complaints from patrons who have been misled. These scams are being widely disseminated through social media advertisements directing consumers to download apps and visit websites, and are enticing unsuspecting consumers to spend money on illegitimate games.
The Arizona Department of Gaming urges residents to verify the legitimacy of any online gaming platform before engaging in play. Many of these operations are not legal or regulated, leaving users vulnerable to fraud, identity theft, and other serious risks. Due to their unregulated nature, ADG is unable to resolve complaints and disputes arising from unregulated and illegal gaming sites, leaving victims with little to no chance of recovering lost funds. It is important to remember that just because you can download the app, visit the website, and play the games, it does not mean it is a legitimate and legal gaming platform.
In light of these developments, the Department encourages both Arizona residents and visitors to visit our website to find a list of all regulated casinos and licensed event wagering and fantasy sports operators legally taking bets in Arizona. The list can be found on the Departmentās website at gaming.az.gov. Legal, regulated operations provide important consumer protections not found in the illegal market, helping ensure a safer experience for participants.
The Dangers of Illegal Online Casinos:
Fraudulent online casinos often mimic reputable platforms, using familiar branding, flashy advertisements, and enticing promotions to lure victims. These unregulated operations leave participants vulnerable to:
- Financial loss through fake gaming platforms or fraudulent prize fees.
- Identity theft resulting from shared personal or financial information.
Common Red Flags of Illegal Platforms:
These deceptive platforms often use tactics such as:
- Mimicking branding of legitimate Arizona casinos, including similar or actual logos and names.
- Enticing promotions that appear too good to be true, such as excessive bonuses or guaranteed wins, luring players into providing sensitive information.
- Incorrect Website URL/Mobile App ā Fraudulent sites often use web addresses that closely mimic legitimate casino names but have slight misspellings or different domain extensions (e.g., .net instead of .com).
How to Protect Yourself:
- Check before you bet: verify the licensed and regulated casinos and operators in Arizona.
- Be skeptical of advertisements or promotions on social media promising guaranteed wins or no-risk gaming.
- Avoid sharing personal or financial information with unverified sources.
- Look for sites that include resources for dispute resolution, as well as self-exclusion, responsible gaming messaging, or a toll-free helpline number.
Reporting Suspicious Activity, Fraud, or Identity Theft:
If you encounter fraud, identity theft, or suspicious online gaming operations, apps, or websites impersonating a casino or claiming to be a licensed operator in Arizona, please take the following steps:
- Document the website URL, app, business name, and any promotional materials associated with the fraudulent operator.
- Report it to ADG at [email protected] and the Arizona Attorney Generalās Office Consumer Information and Complaints Unit at (602) 542-5763 or by visiting azag.gov/consumer.
- Cease activity on the platform and monitor financial accounts for unauthorized transactions.
If you suspect identity theft, report it to the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”): for help in English, go to IdentityTheft.gov and for help in Spanish, go to RobodeIdentidad.gov.
