Amelco boosts US offering with BetSwap integration

Secondary market for sportsbooks now available for all Amelco US partners
Amelco, the leading sportsbook and platform provider, has reached a deal to partner with BetSwap Limited, the world’s most efficient and fully integrated online secondary marketplace for sportsbooks.
This partnership enables Amelco to offer its US-based operator partners with a new way of engaging their players by providing a secondary market for the buying and selling of active betslips between players within their sportsbook.
BetSwap’s platform provides players with an industry-first ability to buy and sell active betslips with other players on their sportsbook of choice, whether before or during a match – as long as the outcome hasn’t been settled.
By integrating BetSwap, Amelco’s US partners will now be able to engage their players in new ways through the marketplace and through the social elements attached to the buying and selling of active betslips.
The addition of this peer-to-peer marketplace greatly strengthens Amelco’s platform, which is now live in 11 states and provides bespoke enterprise sports betting and trading platforms to multiple tier-one operators.
Commenting on the integration, Brandon Walker, Head of Amelco USA, said:
“At Amelco we are all about innovation, new products, and staying ahead of the curve. We are thrilled at the prospect of working with new providers – this deal enables Amelco to provide partners with an enhanced betting experience, giving them an exciting new way to exit betting positions at high margins.”
Brent Winston, Co-Founder and CEO of BetSwap, added:
“We are very excited to be partnering with Amelco in order to bring our innovative solution with industry-first functionality to one of the most respected platform providers in the industry.
We believe this partnership will provide an enjoyable and competitive new way for players to interact with their sportsbook – and other players – all while enhancing their betting experiences. Amelco’s track record for innovation and growth makes them a perfect partner for BetSwap as we expand our presence not only in the US, but globally.“
Founded in 2006 by veterans of the global financial sector, Amelco is the supplier of choice for the likes of Entain, Flutter, Hard Rock Digital, FuboTV and Sportradar.
The tier-one supplier closed a record-breaking 2021 for its US operations, delivering one of the continent’s most comprehensive platforms available to operators. Spanning sports betting, iGaming, retail, player account management (PAM), as well as multiple data feeds, Amelco is now live across 11 US states, including Iowa, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Florida.

Internet Vikings, a licensed hosting provider for the U.S. iGaming and online sports betting industry, has entered into an agreement with Games Global to provide in-state hosting infrastructure that addressed challenges and ensures a more reliable, modern, and fully managed solution.
Earlier this year, Games Global approached Internet Vikings to explore alternatives that could deliver improved stability, efficiency, and ease of management. After reviewing the options presented by Internet Vikings, Games Global chose their VMware Cloud – Fully Managed Infrastructure as a Service.

• Virtual resources, hardware, and connectivity are fully managed by Internet Vikings
• Immediate access and faster deployment
Internet Vikings implementation was completed in just two weeks, delivering a large-scale environment with speed and precision. Games Global expressed satisfaction with the modernized setup.
“To deliver world-class gaming content, we rely on both reliable infrastructure and a trusted partner. Internet Vikings offers a fully managed infrastructure solution, supported by a dedicated team that ensures all of our in-state infrastructure needs are met,” said Jen Cohen, Chief Information Officer at Games Global.
Rickard Vikström, CEO and Founder of Internet Vikings added, “We built our in-state VMware Cloud offering to take full responsibility for performance, security, and scalability. This partnership is a perfect example of how the right infrastructure provider can remove complexity and deliver immediate results.”
The collaboration is running smoothly, with both companies reporting strong operational performance and integration. The partnership is positioned for continued growth over the coming years.

Arizona Department of Gaming and Arizona Lottery Announce Proclamation Recognizing September 2025 as Responsible Gaming Education Month

State agencies join forces to raise awareness, promote prevention, and provide tools for safe and responsible play.
The Arizona Department of Gaming (ADG) and the Arizona Lottery are proud to announce a joint effort in support of a new Proclamation recognizing September 2025 as Responsible Gaming Education Month in Arizona.
Responsible gaming is about ensuring that individuals who choose to play have the tools, resources, and knowledge they need to make informed decisions and enjoy gaming as a form of entertainment. While problem gambling initiatives focus on helping those already experiencing harm from gambling, responsible gaming emphasizes prevention by encouraging healthy play behaviors before they reach a critical point.
Throughout September, and continuing in the months ahead, the ADG and Arizona Lottery will work together to strengthen education and awareness initiatives. The goal is to equip players with strategies and resources that help them keep gaming fun and safe, while helping reduce the risks associated with problem gambling.
“For over 30 years, the Arizona Department of Gaming has safeguarded the integrity of gaming through strong consumer protections, enforcement against illegal operators, and support services for those impacted by problem gambling,” said Jackie Johnson, Arizona Department of Gaming Agency Director. “During Responsible Gaming Education Month, we remind everyone that part of playing responsibly is being informed—always double-check before you place your bet to ensure you are using a legal, regulated operator at gaming.az.gov/checkyourbet.”
The Arizona Lottery also remains steadfast in its commitment to responsible play and has a Level 2 certification with the World Lottery Association for responsible gaming. Lottery games benefit the people of Arizona by generating critical revenue that funds education, healthcare, environmental conservation, and economic development. At the same time, the Lottery prioritizes the well-being of its players. Each ticket includes clear odds of winning, vending machines display game odds, and the 1-800-NEXT-STEP helpline is featured across Lottery products and advertising.
“We are proud to deliver entertainment that benefits communities across our state, while recognizing our responsibility to promote safe play,” said Alec Thomson, Arizona Lottery Executive Director. “Through transparency and awareness, we want every player to have the tools they need to make informed decisions and enjoy the Lottery responsibly.”
As Arizona observes Responsible Gaming Education Month, ADG and the Arizona Lottery encourage all players to stay informed, know their limits, and seek help if needed. Together, we can ensure that gaming remains a source of entertainment that strengthens, rather than harms, Arizona communities.
For more information and resources, visit gaming.az.gov/ResponsibleGaming or ArizonaLottery.com/ResponsibleGaming. If you or someone you know may be struggling with problem gambling, call or text 1-800-NEXT-STEP for confidential support available 24/7.
