Aristotle’s Integrity™ Launches Solution for European Union’s Fourth Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Directive

Fully outsourced compliance solution brings cost-efficient

authentication to iGaming

London, England (February 2016) — Aristotle’s Integrity division — the leading global provider of online age and identity verification — announces a new compliance solution that will enable organizations to comply with the European Union’s Fourth Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Directive.

The new AML Directive mandates that customer ID authentication takes place before any business relationship is established and must be done with all new and existing customers. Integrity’s risk-based programs ensure compliance while accurately reporting any suspicious fraudulent activity. Combining Integrity’s global Know Your Customer (KYC) solutions with auditing, reporting and tracking features offers a full outsourcing program of compliance activities. Integrating Integrity™ products with innovative data-management features is particularly useful for the iGaming sector and financial services companies who lack the resources to hire a full compliance team.

Brand New Feature: The Rotator

Having only been in the slot making game for a little over a year, one would think Booming Games has a lot of work to do to catch up with the big players in offering the full set of standard slot features. However, this is not the case, for Booming Games has been hard at work in creating completely new features.

Introducing their latest creation, The Rotator. Designed for an unconventional square grid, this feature achieves two things: it’s an exciting audio/visual experience, and offers more win chances per spin.

For the Rotator’s big premiere, Booming Games is rolling out a brand new retro futuristic theme: Galactic Speedway, as well as other upcoming releases like the roaring 20s themed Chicago Nights.

ICE Totally Gaming: Appearance and Contest

Booming Games is making its sophomore appearance at ICE Totally Gaming next week in London. The stand is twice the size, the team is twice as big, and the games are better and more numerous.

Last year, Booming Games held an end-of-day giveaway contest that was a huge success, bringing in the crowds to check out the commotion caused by this young company. This year, the contest is back with some improvements. Firstly, the crowd will be treated to a very brief but mind-reeling video presentation showcasing some of Booming Games’ latest games and features, like Scratch Cards and the original Rotator feature. Secondly, the prizes are better, including Apple products, a drone airplane, and a Go-Pro.

“Last year, we were excited to just be in the same room as the major players,” says CEO Max Niehusen, “this year we’re taking a seat at the table.”

Pariplay Ltd. Launches Atari Black Widow® Online Slot

HTML5 real-money casino game based on Atari arcade classic to be showcased by company at ICE Totally Gaming    

Pariplay Ltd., a Douglas, Isle of Man-based gaming software company serving iGaming operators, land-based casinos and iLotteries, has announced the launch of the real-money online slot Black Widow®, based on the iconic Atari Interactive arcade game. Developed by Pariplay in HTML5, Black Widow® is optimized for play on all devices and the company will demonstrate the new title at its ICE Totally Gaming conference booth in London, from 2nd to 4th February 2016.

In Q2 2014, Pariplay agreed an exclusive strategic partnership with Atari Interactive, the computer and video game entertainment corporation, to develop real-money online casino slots based on a series of Atari arcade games. The new Black Widow® slot developed by Pariplay’s in-house development studio, which has brought to market over 100 online slots, instant win games, scratch cards, bingo and keno games, is the first title to be launched under the Atari partnership.

The original Atari video arcade game Black Widow® was released in 1982 and involved players maneuvering the eponymous spider around its web while shooting various insects to win bonuses. Instead of winning bonus points and shooting beetles, mosquitoes and hornets, Pariplay’s 5-reel, 3-line Black Widow® slot allows players to win real money by taking a simple spin in a sophisticated online casino setting.

FLEXEPIN – a new prepaid voucher and Paysafecard alternative has launched on Ladbrokes and bet365 – available for purchase on epay in Australia and Payment Source in Canada

LONDON – Monday February 2016 – After the acquisition of prepaid voucher stalwart Ukash by its rival competitor Paysafecard, a new Australian-based entrant called “Flexepin” has hit the market spurring competition in the established prepaid voucher deposit payment space.

Flexepin – launched in Australia during November 2015 – has jumped from the starting gates by signing on and launching with two industry icons, Ladbrokes (Australia) and bet365 and inking merchant deals with the Australian based James Packer-backed wagering operator CrownBet and with the Malta based Betway Group.

Just like Paysafecard, the new Flexepin voucher works exactly like cash which is ideal for gaming operators looking to extract the most value from their customers – especially as more punters are playing everywhere they go on their mobile.  Flexepin vouchers are available to purchase in Australia in seven denominations ranging from AUD$20 to AUD$500.

Customers can simply purchase a Flexepin voucher with cash from over 7000 retailers across the epay network in Australia (including newsagents, supermarkets, petrol stations, convenience stores and other independent retailers) and then simply redeem them as a deposit option using the 16-digit activation PIN – starting with Ladbrokes and bet365 as the first two local Australian wagering operators that are actively accepting Flexepin on their cashiers.
