FunFair Technologies launches industry-first, blockchain-powered KYC solution FunPassReading Time: 3 minutes

30th August, 2018 London – FunFair Technologies, the leading decentralised B2B casino platform, can today announce the launch of FunPass: a unique, blockchain-based solution that streamlines the registration process for both players and casino operators.

Leading mobile identity platform Yoti and global identity data intelligence specialists GBG will be among the first partners to integrate into FunPass, with more to follow as the tool improves its flexibility to operators.

FunPass is an industry-first, harnessing the blockchain to reduce costs for operators and speed up players’ registration process, lowering the barriers for them to seamlessly jump between FunFair-powered casinos.

With FunPass, players need only go through the KYC procedure once to be able to play on any FunFair-powered casino, while operators will have a choice of provider dependent on their regulatory requirements and personal preference.

Following successful registration, which takes just a few seconds, the player’s Ethereum wallet is tagged on the blockchain with the approval. This is the only user data held on the blockchain, with minimal personal information held in a private FunFair server for regulatory purposes.

Moving forward, FunPass will have the capacity to link into national self-exclusion databases, as it will hold a bank of approved player wallets across all operators, making the process far more consistent and accessible for various stakeholders in the FunFair ecosystem.

FunFair Technologies’ founder and CEO, Jez San, said: “FunPass is bringing player registration into the 21st century. KYC procedures are typically clunky and slow for players, and needlessly expensive for operators, but by using blockchain technology, we’re making it quicker and easier for players to choose where they want to play.

“We’re ensuring that players aren’t put-off by a needlessly long sign-up process and improving our socially responsible gaming provisions which all of our operators will benefit from in future.”

Thom White, Future Technologies Lead at Yoti said:

“We’re delighted to be working with FunFair Technologies to make the gaming experience better for operators and players with Yoti’s digital identities. FunFair shares our dedication to transparency and building trust between businesses and consumers – the FunPass solution uses Yoti to provide a simple, private and secure way for people to prove their identity on all FunFair powered casinos.

“KYC is traditionally a long and arduous process that involves sharing passport copies and waiting days and sometimes weeks for verification. Yoti and FunPass will streamline the process with pre-verified identities – helping people onboard in seconds.”  

Adam Doyle, Global Gaming Sales Manager at GBG PLC said:

“We’re incredibly excited to partner with FunFair to develop an industry-leading KYC solution that benefits blockchain casinos and their players.

“We are always looking to help businesses make smarter decisions, and with GBG, FunPass will be able to verify the identity of over 4.4 billion of the world’s population in seconds, providing not only tangible monetary savings to businesses, but improving the players’ experience.”

FunPass is available now for users in the closed beta on Mainnet, and is available to all partner casinos as soon as they go live.

  • BLAST Dota Slam Singapore to take place this November at Singapore Indoor Stadium in partnership with Singapore Tourism Board and AEG Presents Asia

  • The world’s best Dota teams will meet in Singapore from 4th – 9th November 2025 to compete for a prize pool of $1,000,000 at the first ever BLAST Slam arena event 

Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced the return of its world-class events to Singapore with the BLAST Dota Slam Singapore, set to take place in November 2025 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium, supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB).

This announcement follows the sellout success of the BLAST Premier World Final 2024, which marked BLAST’s Southeast Asia debut and saw more than ten-thousand fans pack out the Resorts World Convention Centre to witness the world’s top Counter-Strike teams compete for the $1 million prize pool.

Building on that momentum, Singapore will now host the BLAST Dota Slam arena event, teaming up with AEG Presents Asia again to bring together the world’s best Dota teams to battle it out for $1,000,000 in front of a live audience and millions of fans tuning in globally across 50+ territories and in 12 languages.

The BLAST Dota Slam Singapore is the latest milestone in BLAST’s global expansion into Dota 2, and reinforces Singapore’s growing reputation as a premier destination for sports and live entertainment. It marks the second consecutive year the city-state has hosted a BLAST arena tournament, following the successful Counter-Strike event in 2024.

James Woollard, Director of Market Development at BLAST, said: “Singapore delivered one of the most passionate esports crowds we’ve ever seen during last year’s BLAST Premier World Final. We’re thrilled to be returning with our next major arena show – this time for Dota 2 – and to once again partner with the Singapore Tourism Board and AEG Presents Asia to help to further grow Southeast Asia’s esports ecosystem. The response to our events in Singapore has been incredible, and this November’s Dota Slam promises to be another landmark moment for fans and for the region. Singapore has an impressive history and pedigree for the biggest international sporting events, supported by STB, and BLAST is proud to be building on this with the biggest esports events.”

Ms Lilian Chee, Director, Sports, Singapore Tourism Board, said: “We are delighted to welcome BLAST back to Singapore, this time with the Dota Slam. Building on the success of the BLAST Premier World Final, this event further reinforces Singapore’s reputation as a world-class destination for sports and live entertainment. We look forward to welcoming the passionate fans, players and partners once again to our vibrant city.”

BLAST’s return to Singapore is set to shine a global spotlight on the city while delivering significant economic benefits and meaningful destination marketing. With an estimated economic impact in the tens of millions, the tournament further demonstrates how esports events are evolving into major cultural and economic drivers for host cities – on par with large-scale traditional international sporting events.

With Singapore, Rio, London, Austin, and Lyon among the major destinations on BLAST’s global calendar this year, it is evident that governments, cities and tourism bodies are recognising the power of esports to attract young and engaged visitors, create jobs, and drive international visibility.

Casino operator’s greenscreen-powered Live Blackjack experience to deliver immersive, custom gameplay and deeper brand engagement

LuckyStreak, the Riga-based live games provider, has launched its fully customisable SmartStudio greenscreen technology with online casino operator WinSpirit, delivering a high-spec branded Live Blackjack experience.

The integration gives WinSpirit the ability to completely customise every visual element of the blackjack environment, from the set, walls and floor, to the dealer’s backdrop, with the brand’s logo and colours. This creates a high-impact, bespoke experience that drives stronger engagement between brand and player.

LuckyStreak’s green screen solution lets operators like WinSpirit create fully customised, branded live casino environments without needing physical set builds. It’s flexible, fast, and cost-effective. Operators can choose different backgrounds, themes, branding elements – even switch between them dynamically if needed.

Designed with flexibility and fast deployment in mind, LuckyStreak’s highly advanced SmartStudio system offers chroma system keys in full HD with low latency, to promise razor sharp streams. The technology offers studio-grade production, multi-camera greenscreen and a semi-dedicated table layout that enables precise drop logos, video and stills layering and vibrant colour matching. The result is a deeply immersive and visually distinct blackjack game that perfectly aligns with WinSpirit’s brand identity.

This launch reinforces LuckyStreak’s commitment to delivering versatile and custom solutions for operators looking for more tailored and brand-led experiences across their live casino offering.

Ido Kamiel, COO at LuckyStreak, said: “We’re delighted that WinSpirit has chosen to enhance their players’ blackjack experiences with our greenscreen technology. It is designed to be highly flexible to meet our customers’ diverse and individual branding needs, and simple to deploy, to really enable us to forge closer relationships between player and brand, and to ensure that those meaningful moments are unforgettable.

“We are pleased to say that this is being reflected in longer and more involved player sessions compared to their generic table KPIs.”

Oleksandr Kotsenko, Business Development Lead at WinSpirit, said: “At WinSpirit, we’re always focused on offering players more choices and enhancing their gaming experience.

“Our partnership with LuckyStreak has been a perfect step in bringing this vision to life. We’re excited about this partnership and confident that LuckyStreak will delight our players while making a fantastic addition to our library.”
