Two proven game technology companies are joining forces in what promises to be a devilish collaboration that disrupts the iGaming industry. 

Design Works Gaming (DWG) and Bluberi Gaming announced an exciting partnership that will bring together DWG’s chart-topping LuckyTap™ mechanic and Bluberi’s top-performing titles.

Fueled by a unique mix of creativity, innovation and undeniable player appeal, Bluberi has made waves with their iconic games, including their breakout hit Devil’s Lock™.

Enter DWG — the team behind the proprietary LuckyTap™ mechanic. Known for blending simplicity with explosiveness, DWG’s games consistently top the charts and deliver next-level engagement.

“Devil’s Lock has always topped our favorites list when we hit the casino floor as a team. And just a few months ago, as we were trying our luck with the Devil, inspiration struck. We knew we could turn up the heat and reimagine this fan-favorite as a high-voltage LuckyTap™,” said founder and CEO of DWG Troy Zurawski. “Bluberi brings the legendary IP, and we bring the power of LuckyTap™.”

This partnership kicks off a new era for both companies—one where creative chaos reigns and boundaries are pushed. Together, DWG and Bluberi are cooking up gameplay that’s bold, mischievous and unruly.

“Partnering with Design Works Gaming marks a new milestone in iGaming for Bluberi’s iGaming strategy,” said Scott Richards, VP of Commercial Strategy at Bluberi. “DWG’s LuckyTap™ is a proven game-changing technology that pushes boundaries and resonates with Bluberi’s approach to developing unique gaming experiences. Our teams share a passion for pushing boundaries and delivering unforgettable player experiences. We can’t wait to unveil what we’re creating together.”

The 2025 Paulistão Feminino, Brazil’s premier state-level women’s football championship, kicked off this Tuesday, May 6, and brings with it a historic partnership: 7K, a brand under the Ana Gaming Group, has joined as the exclusive betting sponsor of the tournament.

This move further reinforces 7K’s growing presence in national football, as it also sponsors Santos FC’s women’s team, positioning itself as a strong backer of women’s sports in Brazil.

“We believe in the transformative power of sport and its societal impact,” said Talita Lacerda, Chief Operating Officer at Ana Gaming Group. “Supporting Paulistão Feminino at this pivotal time of growth and visibility reflects our commitment to gender equity and diversity. Women’s football is finally gaining the space it deserves, and 7K is proud to contribute to this important journey alongside such prominent brands.”

Record-Breaking Investment and Visibility in 2025

This year’s edition sees a record investment, surpassing the R$8 million of 2024. The total club distribution increases to R$3.3 million, with the champions receiving R$840,000 and runners-up awarded R$350,000 in prize money.

The competition features eight powerhouse teams:

• AD Taubaté

• Corinthians

• Ferroviária

• Palmeiras

• Realidade Jovem

• Red Bull Bragantino

• Santos

• São Paulo

Broadcast and Media Coverage

For the first time, all matches of the Paulistão Feminino will be televised or streamed. The tournament will be broadcast by SporTV, TV Globo, Record News, Warner (via Max and Space), as well as digital channels like CazéTV and the official Paulistão YouTube channel, expanding the reach of women’s football like never before.

A New Era of Sponsorships

The 2025 edition also breaks the record for number of sponsors, with seven brands backing the competition—up from five in 2024. In addition to 7K and Sicredi (which holds the naming rights), sponsors include Amazon, Assaí, Centauro, Guaraná Antarctica, and Lays.

Previously, 7K gained major visibility during the 2025 Campeonato Paulista (men’s) by sponsoring the tournament and securing the naming rights for the “Man of the Match” trophy, further showcasing its dedication to Brazilian football at all levels.
