Esports betting platform Luckbox partners with HooYuReading Time: 3 minutes

 

Esports betting platform Luckbox has announced a partnership with leading ID verification specialist HooYu. Luckbox is an innovative and immersive platform that allows players to bet on esports and as a regulated gambling operator, they comply with strict age verification and anti-money laundering requirements.

HooYu has been selected to provide Luckbox with the HooYu Identify solution, to verify customer age and identity.

Luckbox has been awarded a full gambling licence in the Isle of Man – among the world’s strictest jurisdictions – and aims to serve esports fans across the world. Luckbox is preparing for launch in April and the deal with HooYu is an important milestone for the innovative esports betting start-up.

Luckbox Chief Operating Officer Quentin Martin said, “From day one, we’ve made integrity, player security and doing things right among of our top priorities at Luckbox. Nowhere are these values more important than the customer onboarding process which is why we chose HooYu to help us ensure age and identity verification compliance whilst delivering smooth global customer onboarding.

The esports betting industry has long been plagued by shady operators acting with little or no regard for the rules or the safety of their players. This problem has been particularly acute regarding underage gambling – too many esports betting sites have allowed underage players to gamble and this is clearly unacceptable and something that needs to stop.

Thankfully, things are changing and Luckbox is proud to be among the operators leading the shift that will help legitimate operators, players and the wider esports industry.”

HooYu Marketing Director, David Pope said, “The emergence of specialist esports operators like Luckbox is evidence of continuing innovation in the online gambling industry. Luckbox is the latest operator to sign-up to our age and identity verification solutions, this is another sign that the industry is moving in the right direction and that player protection and social responsibility is front and centre.”

Luckbox is creating a unique, esports-dedicated platform, which is being built by an in-house development team and will allow fans to bet on CSGO, Dota 2, League of Legends and other esports.

 

About Luckbox:
Luckbox was founded by former PokerStars colleagues Lars Lien and Mike Stevens. Preparing for launch in April 2019, it is being built by a team combining vast experience in the igaming industry and a passion for esports to offer players unique and highly social platform to engage with their favourite games, including CSGO, Dota 2 and League of Legends. Real Time Games Holding Limited – the company behind the Luckbox brand – holds a full licence under the Online Gambling Regulation Act (OGRA), issued by the Gaming Supervision Commission.
About HooYu:
At HooYu, we are specialists in building database check and identity confirmation products and our platforms are used by millions of users each month. The team behind HooYu has built several successful database check businesses such as 192.com and 192business.com.

Today, many organisations use our two platforms, HooYu Identify and HooYu Investigate to verify customer identity or to investigate people, places and businesses.

HooYu Identify is a global identity confirmation service that blends and combines multiple identity technologies including digital footprint analysis, identity document authentication, facial biometrics, database checks and PEPS and Sanctions watchlist checks to confirm identity.
HooYu cross-references and analyses data from a person’s digital footprint to confirm their real-world identity. HooYu also extracts and verifies data from ID documents at the same time as authenticating the ID document and conducting a biometric facial check comparing a selfie of the customer with the facial image on their ID document.
HooYu Investigate is a ground-breaking investigation platform that instead of displaying results in traditional list format, shows results in a graph database. With our unique data visualisation technology, we have evolved traditional database search into a navigable graph which connects 180 million people, 14 million businesses, 32 million UK addresses, 57 million phone numbers and 18 million email addresses.

L&L Europe, owner and operator of PubCasino.co.uk, is happy to announce their first sponsorship within the English Football League. The sponsorship is with the historical team Preston North End for the upcoming season. This partnership will include the Pub Casino logo on the back of all 3 kits for the season 2025/26.

At Pub Casino we love football and especially football where a lot of history is involved. Preston North End is one of the first professional football teams in the history of UK professional football. And today still the only team winning both the league and FA cup without conceding a goal. That is what Preston North End breathes: Football history. To be part of that makes us extremely proud.

While discussing the partnership with PNE it became clear who the front of shirt sponsor will be. As a result, we even got more excited. SpudBros on the front of shirt, Pub Casino on the back, what a lovely combination.

Head of Commercial and Partnerships at Preston North End, Lisa Whittaker said: “We are delighted to be teaming up with PubCasino for the upcoming season and thank them for their support in making this happen.”

Jan Wienk, Head of Marketing and Product at PubCasino, said: “We are extremely happy to be part of the Championship this year and are proud to be teaming up with a club with so much history in the English game. It’s great to be on board with the team ahead of the new season and the combination of kit sponsors, with SpudBros on the front, should make it a fun and entertaining year.”

Sky Bet has renewed its partnership with The Overlap – the UK’s No.1 football YouTube channel founded by Gary Neville – for a further two years.

As a founding partner since the channel’s launch in April 2021, Sky Bet will continue as the headline sponsor of The Overlap Interviews and Fan Debates, key formats that have helped the channel become a leading voice in football content.

Featuring in-depth conversations with major figures from sport and entertainment, as well as dynamic debates between football legends and fan creators, The Overlap has built a dedicated audience and strong community.

Sky Bet will also maintain its presence in the weekly Stick to Football podcast through the popular Super 6 segment. The feature sees panellists Roy Keane, Ian Wright, Jamie Carragher, Jill Scott, and Gary Neville predict six results from the weekend’s matches in the free-to-play football game, Super 6.

The renewed partnership underscores Sky Bet’s continued commitment to delivering original, fan-first football content that resonates with audiences across platforms.

Gary Neville Quote: “I want to thank Sky Bet for partnering with us over the past four years. Without their support, we wouldn’t have been able to deliver the content you see today. It’s fantastic to have them on board for another two years, and I’m excited to see what we can achieve together.”

ICONIC21 launches first-person, high-suspense game where players open doors to reveal win multipliers or the possibility of losing it all

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

A door opens, but what’s behind it? That’s the question players will be able to answer when they take on the latest game from in-demand iGaming content provider, ICONIC21.

In Knock Knock, nothing is guaranteed as players find themselves in front of a door that they must choose whether to open or not.

What’s on the other side? It could be an Increasing Multiplier, or it could be the players’ accrued winnings and original bet being cruelly taken away from them.

Knock Knock takes the first-person, high-suspense format and gives player control over how far they progress into the game – do they want to open another door for the chance to multiply their current win, or do they want to cash out?

This generates unrivalled levels of excitement and anticipation. Do players go for a long door-opening streak, or does the pressure get too much and they opt to lock in their winnings and step away?

Either way, one wrong move and the run comes to an abrupt end.

Knock Knock also comes with a visual path history. The main difference between the three levels lies in the probability of the multiplier: the harder the level, the higher the multiplier – but also the greater the chance of losing.

Either way, players are left with the same question. Do you walk away, or do you knock again?

Edvardas SadovskisChief Product Officer at ICONIC21, said: “Knock Knock offers an intense, high-suspense experience that players will want to experience again and again. 

They must put their nerves to the test as they open doors in search of the game’s biggest win multipliers, but in doing so, they risk losing it all.

Knock Knock is designed for all types of risk-takers – from cautious players to fearless thrill-seekers. By choosing the difficulty level, each player tailors their own balance of success odds and potential multipliers, making every round as safe or as bold as they want.

This marks a milestone in the growth of our RNG portfolio, reinforcing our position as a forward-thinking iGaming content provider and expanding our footprint in the non-traditional games space.”
