GAN has enhanced its platform offering to social casino operators across North America by inking a deal with Stakelogic.
Through the partnership, GAN has agreed to distribute Stakelogic’s in-house igaming content to the social casino brands it works with in the US, as well as the studio’s live casino products.
The deal sees Stakelogic tap into the rapidly expanding social casino sector, while marking a ‘major advancement’ for the space by combining social casino with live dealer gaming.
Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO at Stakelogic, commented: “We’re thrilled to join forces with GAN to bring our slot and live casino products to the US social casino market. This partnership allows us to swiftly roll out our content across the country, delivering a unique gaming experience tailored for American players.
“We believe branded, custom-made content will become the industry standard in the coming years. In the months ahead, we will work closely with GAN and its social casino operators to develop a truly bespoke offering that sets a new benchmark for player engagement and entertainment.”
As a part of Stakelogic’s content offering, GAN’s partnered social casino brands will gain access to live dealer titles, such as roulette and blackjack, alongside game shows like Super Stake Roulette 5,000X and Super Wheel – The Live Game Show.
Additionally, brands working with GAN will benefit from custom-branded slots and live products designed specifically for their platforms.
Guiseppe Gardali, President B2B at GAN, added:“With our partnership with Stakelogic, GAN is elevating social casino entertainment to a whole new level. Stakelogic’s hybrid slots, which blend traditional slots with live casino elements, are truly groundbreaking for the industry.
“Live casino is still an emerging concept in the US, and thanks to Stakelogic, we’re able to lead the way in delivering the most innovative and high-quality gaming experiences available today.”
The Gambling Commission, the UK’s regulatory body, will mandate a new deposit limit and new protection rules for players in the country.
The new regulations will take effect on October 31, 2025. They mandate brands to “make it easy” for gamblers to review and alter their deposit limit after the first deposit. This expansion of practices has already begun being rolled out in the UK.
As per the new regulations, operators will be required to remind their customers to review their accounts, transactions, and deposits every six months. The Gambling Commission states that this will “Help consumers consider whether they want to change existing or set new deposit limits.”
In addition to the new mandates around deposit limits, the UK Gambling Commission will launch a consultation to determine the transparency and consistency of how consumers and their financials could be affected by these changes. This is said to help to ease any potential “confusion” the new plans could impose.
The further change to the UK Gambling Commission‘s License Conditions and Codes of Practice (LCCP) will see operators set out new terms and conditions stating if consumers’ money is protected in the event that operators go bust and which level of protection can be expected.
The information must be available before a prospective player makes a first deposit, with clear markings for the level of protection offered; this must be described as “not protected – no segregation”, “not protected – segregation of customer funds”, “medium protection”, or “high protection” appropriately.
Gambling operators who do not protect players’ money must clearly state this and remind their consumers every six months. Tim Miller, executive director for research and policy of the UK Gambling Commission, said, “These changes illustrate our commitment to ensuring gambling is fair and open by improving consumer empowerment and choice.”
