IBCB Launches Common Commitment of Care on Problem Gambling
Reading Time: 2 minutes
The Irish Banking Culture Board (IBCB), together with its member banks AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB, launched the Common Commitment of Care for Problem Gambling. The initiative aims to provide consistent and compassionate support to customers affected by problem gambling, reinforcing the banking sector’s role in tackling this important social issue.
The launch event, held at the Dublin Chamber of Commerce, was attended by Minister of State Robert Troy T.D., Department of Finance, alongside representatives from the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland, Gambling Care, and senior leaders from IBCB member banks. The new framework commits banks to practical measures such as dedicated support phone lines, trained staff, voluntary card blocking and signposting to trusted external services like Gambling Care and MABS.
Research shows that 90% of gambling transactions take place online and 99% of all those transactions are funded by debit cards. Voluntary card blocking is therefore a pivotal instrument in stopping the harm and helping customers to take back control of their finances and wellbeing.
Marion Kelly, CEO of the Irish Banking Culture Board, said: “Problem gambling can cause serious harm to individuals, families and communities. IBCB member banks recognise their responsibility to respond with compassion and practical support when customers reach out for help. This Common Commitment of Care ensures that anyone experiencing gambling difficulties will find clear, accessible supports to assistance through their bank. The introduction of a voluntary card block by AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB will make an important contribution to those experiencing problem gambling and IBCB calls on other financial services players to put in similar measures”
Minister of State Robert Troy said: “I commend the Irish Banking Culture Board and its member banks for taking this important step to address the issue of problem gambling. By working together to provide meaningful supports, the banking sector is contributing positively to consumer protection. This Common Commitment of Care is a valuable addition to the broader efforts being made across government and society to tackle gambling-related harms. The Government has committed to tackling problem gambling, through the Gambling Regulation Act and the establishment of the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland, and sectoral cooperation remains key to achieving our aims.”
The IBCB’s Common Commitment of Care builds on its wider mission to enhance trust, fairness and transparency in Irish banking. By standardising the way banks support vulnerable customers, the initiative ensures consistency and reliability, while also directing people towards specialist services such as Gambling Care’s 24/7 helpline and MABS’s free debt and budgeting advice.
The launch reflects a strong commitment by AIB, Bank of Ireland PTSB to support customers impacted by gambling addiction. With collaboration between industry, regulators, government and support organisations, the IBCB and its member banks hope to create lasting, positive change in how problem gambling is addressed in Ireland.

Gaming Corps ignites ancient rivalry in Anubis vs Horus: Twin Titans
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Gaming Corps – a publicly-listed game development company based in Sweden, invites players into the golden sands of Egypt, where two of mythology’s most powerful deities face off in a battle for legendary rewards.
In Anubis vs Horus: Twin Titans, Gaming Corps pits the jackal-headed guardian of the underworld against the falcon-eyed god of the sky; each wielding unique Wild powers to boost prizes, trigger special features, and unlock the game’s most lucrative mode, Twin Titans Free Spins. With 1024 ways to win and volatility tuned for thrilling swings, every spin is a step closer to celestial treasure.
In the base game, Anubis Wild and Horus Wild appear exclusively on the third reel, each with its own divine abilities. Anubis can add random prize values and goes up to x1000 in Free Spins. Horus can double prize values, summon coins, collect, or trigger his own Free Spins feature.
When both gods land together, they unlock Twin Titans Free Spins, where each Wild remains locked on the reels for the duration. This upgraded bonus round also awards additional spins and combines the powers of both deities for maximum win potential.
During standard Free Spins, the gods’ powers are amplified; Anubis enhances every Coin or Treasure Coin with added value, while Horus doubles their worth with every appearance. Each mode begins with 10 spins, with the potential to upgrade to Twin Titans for even greater rewards.
Viacheslav Piachernyi, Product Owner at Gaming Corps, said: “With Anubis vs Horus: Twin Titans, we wanted to create a slot that captures the grandeur and tension of an ancient rivalry, while giving players multiple routes to excitement. The dual Wild mechanic, the interplay between the gods, and the upgradeable Free Spins all work together to make every spin feel like a battle for glory.”
Anubis vs Horus: Twin Titans is now live and available across Gaming Corps’ growing network of operator partners.

Building the Future of iGaming Business: DSTGAMING on Powering Casinos from Launch to Scale
Reading Time: 3 minutes
DSTGAMING and Digital Marketer John Tan, join us ahead of the European Gaming Congress 2025.
DSTGAMING brings over a decade of expertise in delivering advanced iGaming solutions, and will be supporting this year’s European Gaming Congress as Lanyards Sponsor. Known for its white-label and turnkey casino platforms, custom game development, powerful aggregation, and secure payment solutions, DSTGAMING empowers operators to launch, scale, and succeed with confidence in today’s competitive landscape.
John, DSTGAMING has built a reputation as a trusted iGaming solutions provider. From your perspective, what makes the company stand out in such a crowded industry?
DSTGAMING stands out by combining over a decade of industry expertise with a truly end-to-end portfolio. While many providers specialize in a single area, DSTGAMING integrates platform solutions, aggregation, payment systems, and bespoke development under one umbrella. This holistic approach ensures that operators not only gain access to advanced technology but also benefit from a partner that understands scalability, compliance, and market dynamics across regions.
Many providers offer white label and turnkey solutions. How does DSTGAMING approach these models differently, and how do you see operators deciding which is the right path for them?
DSTGAMING approaches both models with flexibility and operator growth in mind. White-label solutions are designed for newcomers seeking a fast and cost-effective market entry, complete with licensing and operational support. Turnkey solutions, on the other hand, cater to established operators who want greater control over branding, customization, and scalability. By clearly defining the strengths of each pathway, DSTGAMING helps operators choose the model that aligns with their resources, goals, and long-term strategy.
With over 10,000 games integrated from 100+ providers, your aggregator is one of the strongest in the market. How does this scale benefit operators and players alike?
For operators, this scale reduces integration complexity and ensures they can meet diverse player preferences with a single API. For players, it translates into variety and choice, whether they are looking for classic slots, live dealer tables, or innovative new mechanics. The sheer depth and diversity of the portfolio allows operators to maximize engagement and retention while staying competitive in multiple markets.
Beyond ready-made solutions, DSTGAMING also offers custom game development. Could you share how bespoke development enhances brand identity and player engagement for your clients?
Custom development enables operators to stand out in a marketplace where many platforms look similar. By creating games that reflect a brand’s theme, culture, or promotional goals, DSTGAMING helps operators deliver a unique experience that strengthens brand recognition and loyalty. Bespoke games also give operators the opportunity to innovate around player preferences, building stronger engagement through originality.
Secure, seamless payments are vital to iGaming. What are the biggest challenges DSTGAMING solves for operators when it comes to multi-currency and crypto transactions?
Operators often face fragmented payment channels, regulatory complexities, and cross-border transaction hurdles. DSTGAMING addresses these by offering a unified payment gateway that supports multiple fiat currencies and leading cryptocurrencies. The focus is on ensuring fast, reliable, and compliant transactions that reduce player friction while safeguarding operators from risk.
Gamification has become a buzzword in the industry. How do DSTGAMING’s gamification tools, like loyalty programs, mini-games, and missions, translate into measurable retention results?
Gamification tools are built to extend the player lifecycle and drive consistent engagement. Loyalty programs reward repeat activity, missions add a layer of progression, and mini-games offer instant entertainment. Together, these elements encourage players to stay active longer, return more frequently, and increase their lifetime value. The measurable impact for operators is higher retention rates, stronger brand stickiness, and improved revenue sustainability.
Looking ahead, what trends in iGaming solutions excite you most, and how is DSTGAMING preparing to stay ahead of the curve?
Key trends include the rise of localized content, the growing role of cryptocurrencies and blockchain in payments, and the increasing demand for AI-driven personalization. DSTGAMING is actively investing in these areas by expanding its crypto solutions, enhancing data-driven tools for player engagement, and building stronger localization capabilities. The company’s strategy is to anticipate shifts in player behavior and regulation, ensuring operators can adapt quickly and capture new opportunities.
Thank you, John, for sharing DSTGAMING’s perspective on building scalable, innovative iGaming platforms that empower operators worldwide!
