Gateway Casinos & Entertainment Limited (“Gateway”) announced it will invest an estimated $18 million into renovations at their Hanover Casino at 275 Fifth Street and create up to 70 new jobs in the Municipality of Hanover. The expanded casino will be rebranded as Playtime Casino Hanover and will feature 300 slots and 8 live table games (pending required approvals), and will be a showcase for Gateway’s signature restaurant brands MATCH Eatery & Public House and The Buffet. The renovations are expected to be completed by December of this year.

Gateway Casino’s signature brand MATCH Eatery & Public House combines the welcoming and social traditions of a neighbourhood pub with the high energy and excitement of a sports bar. Whether it’s the big game, a family celebration or just a social gathering with friends, MATCH Eatery & Public House provides a casual, upbeat atmosphere ideal for any occasion. The Buffett equally complements the MATCH experience with an emphasis on exceptional value and an ever-changing menu highlighting cuisine from around the world with something for every age and appetite.

“This is the beginning of a whole new gaming and entertainment experience for Hanover.” said Linda McColl General Manager at Gateway Casinos, Playtime Hanover. “The Hanover, Bentinick & Brant Agricultural Society have been great partners in this venture making space available to us in in the former proposed Carriage Hall banquet facility. I want to thank Randy Rier from the agricultural society and Rhonda Waechter from the raceway for their help in making this happen. I also want to thank Hanover Mayor Sue Paterson and CAO Brian Tocheri for their help and support as well for allowing us to proceed so quickly.”

The investment in an expanded Hanover site follows the announcement of a new $36 million Cascades Casino to be built in Chatham-Kent and the $26 million renovation currently underway to transform Gateway Point Edward to Starlight Casino Point Edward.

Hanover Mayor, Sue Paterson said, “On behalf of council, we are equally excited about Gateway’s growth plans for Hanover.  We believe Gateway couldn’t have picked a better community in which to invest $18 million.  We are particularly pleased to see that construction of the agricultural society’s Carriage Hall project will be completed and that the partnership with the agricultural society remains strong. I also want to thank CAO Brian Tocheri, and Chief Building Official and Director of Development Don Tedford for their help and support.”

“It’s exciting news to see the planned expansion of Gateway Casino. This investment will boost our local economy and create new jobs in our area. It’s especially great to know that Carriage Hall will be completed and in partnership with the Hanover, Bentinick and Brant Agricultural Society, they will help to ensure the sustainability of this long-standing group as well as this attraction to Hanover for many years to come. I wish the best of success and prosperity to everyone involved,” said Bill Walker, MPP, Bruce-Grey-Owen Sound

“The Ag Society is happy with Gateway and the jobs that will be coming to Hanover,” said Randy Rier President of the Hanover, Bentinick & Brant Agricultural Society.

Get ready to dive into a world of fun with Toy Box – the exciting new slot game from Boldplay, where colourful clusters and tumbling toys can lead to a prize bonanza!

Featuring a unique 4×5 reel layout where any five adjacent matching toys trigger an instant win, Toy Box introduces players to a lively cast of toys who, when grouped together, unlock some of the game’s most lucrative rewards. With the popular cascading wins feature, players’ initial prizes will be stored away as winning toys vanish, making room for new ones to tumble down and potentially enhance the overall win.

The fun doesn’t stop there – multiple cascades can occur during each round, with the excitement only ceasing when no new wins are formed. Plus, to assist players in uncovering a treasure trove of prizes, the Toy Box logo acts as a wild, capable of substituting for any regular toy to complete potential clusters. Additionally, at the start of every spin, one reel space can be highlighted at random; land a wild in this spot, and adjacent toys may also transform into wilds, boosting your chances of a big win!

Speaking of the new title, Head of Design, Marcus Taylor said: ” With Toy Box, we wanted to create a slot game that’s just bursting with fun and excitement. With colourful clusters, tumbling toys, and unique features designed to give players an engaging and rewarding experience, we’re confident it will be a smash hit with both players and operators alike.”

SOFTSWISS Unites iGaming Community to Aid Brazil Floods

Published

In response to the worst flood in Brazil’s history, SOFTSWISS, a global tech provider of innovative iGaming solutions, has launched a multi-phase charity project. The campaign aims to not only provide immediate aid to those affected and long-term support in restoring the region but also invite industry players to join the initiative.

At the end of April, the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul faced a severe flood. Many urban areas are still submerged, with specialists saying the water is not expected to recede soon. The humanitarian situation worsens daily as the weather deteriorates, and food, water, and warm clothing shortages become more acute. The state and the public, including companies and individuals, are doing their best to help.

SOFTSWISS has initiated the campaign to involve the iGaming community to support the region. 

“Recognising Brazil as a key market, SOFTSWISS has dedicated significant efforts to establish a strong presence here. Our goal is to be a reliable partner to the Brazilian people and help the local industry grow. We now have employees in the region, and in light of the country’s recent hardships, standing aside is not an option. We are committed to supporting the people of Brazil during this difficult time,” said Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS. “We are providing emergency financial assistance, partnering with organisations that can swiftly deliver food, clothing, and water to those impacted by the flood. Additionally, we are developing a long-term initiative to install water purification equipment in schools in the affected regions.”

Providing Direct Assistance

Recognising the severity of the situation, SOFTSWISS has allocated funds to deliver essential supplies such as food and gas to those in need. This immediate assistance is being facilitated through Movimento União BR, a local charity organisation. 

Beyond immediate help, SOFTSWISS is committed to supporting Brazil’s long-term recovery. The company has pledged additional resources to PWTECH for the installation of water purification equipment in schools across the affected regions of the state of Rio Grande do Sul. This will provide a sustainable solution to ensure access to clean drinking water not just during this crisis, but for future generations.

Engaging the iGaming Community

SOFTSWISS is calling upon the global iGaming community to join its relief efforts initiative. In addition to the financial contribution, the company provides crucial informational support. SOFTSWISS, in conjunction with its Non-Executive Director in Latin America, Rubens Barrichello, has chosen a trusted Brazilian charity partner to help those who suffered in the flood:

  • Movimento União BR – a volunteer movement that acts as a bridge between those who want to help and those who need help. Started in 2020 to fight against the effects of the coronavirus pandemic in Brazil, it has supported more than 26 million people and 4 thousand NGOs.

In addition, anyone can contribute to help flood victims through an official channel activated by the government of Rio Grande do Sul.

SOFTSWISS guarantees that donations effectively reach people in need.

Rubens Barrichello, SOFTSWISS Non-Executive Director in Latin America: “I am very glad the SOFTSWISS team I joined is committed to supporting Brazilians in this difficult situation. Having launched many charity initiatives with the Barrichello Family Institute, I am grateful that, together with SOFTSWISS, we also have the opportunity to help those who need our support now.”

By supporting these verified charities alongside SOFTSWISS’ financial and informational aid, the iGaming community can make sure their contributions directly help those affected by the Brazilian flood.

Brazil needs iGaming community action!
