Company’s Sports Solution Focused on Maximizing Sales and Profits Returned to the Turkish Government

Scientific Games Corporation announced that its joint venture has successfully launched the exclusive national sports betting program in Turkey, one of the world’s largest state-sponsored fixed odds sports betting markets. The Company also announced earlier this week that it was selected to provide its world-leading products and technology for the Turkish National Lottery in the nation of more than 80 million.

With focus on maximizing sales and profits returned to the Turkish government, Scientific Games’ full turnkey sports betting solution is now live across its exclusive retail sports operation and through the companies licensed to provide interactive sports betting. The Company’s world-leading central gaming systems technology launched with nearly 5,000 WAVE™ retail betting terminals and six virtual live betting sites licensed to provide interactive sports betting. The retail and digital sports betting solutions are fully traded by Scientific Games through its OpenSports™ managed trading services.

The joint venture, named Şans Girişim, was awarded the 10-year exclusive sports betting IDDAA concession in Turkey in March 2019. Along with Scientific Games, the lead partner in the joint venture is Şans Dijital, an affiliate of Demirören Holding, which is one of Turkey’s largest companies with significant business interests in energy, real estate and media.

Barry Cottle, Scientific Games CEO, said, “The excitement surrounding our joint venture’s win of the 10-year sports betting concession in Turkey, followed by a successful launch on schedule is everything we have been working toward the last several years. Leveraging the unique combined strength of our  Lottery and Digital teams, we have developed a market-leading, fully-integrated sports betting solution, and we are honored to be selected by Şans Dijital and the Government of Turkey to maximize profits through our sports betting program in one of the world’s largest markets.”

Demirören Holding previously commented that after evaluating many of the leading companies in the global sports betting industry, it selected Scientific Games as its joint venture partner based on Scientific Games’ proven track record in driving sales and profits for state-sponsored sports betting, and the Company’s advanced, technology-based sports solution and risk management services.

Sinan Oktay, Board Member of Şans Dijital, said, “We are celebrating the national launch of our retail and interactive sports betting program in Turkey. Our teams have collaborated very well on this important project. We value Scientific Games’ commitment to maximizing returns to the Turkish government, and we look forward to our long-term partnership with one of the world’s best gaming entertainment companies.”

Scientific Games is an operator or supplier in 35 sports betting markets, and provided the first full-scale sports betting offering in the U.S. in Delaware following the U.S. Supreme Court’s PASPA ruling. This success was followed by contracts to provide sports betting solutions in Indiana, Iowa, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania.  The Company is the first associate member of the Global Lottery Monitoring System (GLMS), an organization that protects the integrity of sports competition and sports betting worldwide. Scientific Games is one the first suppliers to receive certification from the World Lottery Association as a responsible gaming supplier.

PayRam Unveils Private Stablecoin Payment Gateway Built for iGaming

Published

on

PayRamnt-weight: 400;”> has launched its private stablecoin payment gateway for iGaming operators, gaming platforms, and affiliates that require fast, borderless, and censorship-resistant payments.

Built on the belief that payments should operate as freely as the internet itself, PayRam delivers decentralized PayFi infrastructure that allows iGaming businesses to accept and manage stablecoin payments through fully self-hosted infrastructure. Operators no longer rely on banks, custodians, or centralized processors to control their revenue.

In an industry plagued by frozen balances, chargebacks, delayed settlements, and compliance shutdowns, PayRam gives operators direct control over funds, payouts, and transaction infrastructure. Platforms retain ownership of their payment flow without platform risk. Operators can now accept private stablecoin deposits, launch without intermediaries, and expand globally on their own terms.

Stablecoins Are the Future of Global iGaming Payments

Stablecoins now drive the most significant transformation in payments in decades. With a market capitalization exceeding $300 billion, stablecoins now function as real-world settlement infrastructure rather than speculative assets. For iGaming businesses that operate across borders, stablecoins deliver instant payouts, low transaction costs, and continuous global liquidity.

Governments also continue to formalize regulatory frameworks. Initiatives such as the GENIUS Bill in the United States signal that stablecoins will soon function as foundational financial infrastructure for both traditional commerce and emerging agent-driven economies.

Yet most existing stablecoin fiat gateways still copy legacy banking structures. They custodian funds, over-monitor transactions, delay settlements, and restrict high-risk industries such as iGaming. Operators continue to face frozen balances, withheld profits, and sudden account closures.

Instead of decentralizing commerce, centralized processors reintroduce single points of failure. They strip merchants of privacy, predictability, and true ownership of funds.

PayRam removes these bottlenecks by allowing iGaming operators to deploy and operate their own self-hosted stablecoin payment nodes. This sovereign infrastructure restores payment autonomy, protects funds from blacklisting, enables private deposits, and eliminates third-party revenue risk.

Permissionless Commerce Underpinned By Privacy

PayRam embodies a mission to decentralize the global payments ecosystem. Its founder, Siddharth Menon, who previously co-founded WazirX, India’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, helped bring crypto to more than 15 million users. Today, he’s channeling that experience into building a decentralized PayFi layer engineered for privacy, autonomy, and self-custody.

“The future of payments is decentralized stablecoin payments. As the world moves beyond custodial systems, PayRam is building the foundation for permissionless commerce, where every merchant, creator, or platform can host and own their own payment infrastructure,” said Siddharth Menon, Founder of PayRam. “Just as Uniswap reimagined trading through decentralization, PayRam is reimagining how money moves across the internet.”

iGaming Operators Go Live in Minutes and Expand Into Underserved Regions

PayRam removes all onboarding friction. Operators need no approvals, no vetting, and no centralized onboarding process. Any business can deploy PayRam, configure it, and begin processing private stablecoin payments within 10 minutes.

This instant deployment allows operators to enter underserved and payment-restricted regions, unlock new player bases, and launch real-money gaming operations without waiting on banks, payment processors, or jurisdictional approvals.

PayRam is built as a merchant-first ecosystem, offering advanced accounting analytics, scalable APIs, and automated payments orchestration tools. It also arrives with integrated growth tools like referral and payout systems. Merchants and individuals can issue payment requests, share unique payment links, and monitor transactions through programmable APIs, all operated on infrastructure that users self-host and fully control. The built-in SmartSweep feature uses a family of smart contracts to move funds securely and periodically, eliminating the need to store private keys on servers.

PayRam supports stablecoin and cryptocurrency payments across major networks including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Base, and Tron, with integrations for Polygon, BNB Smart Chain, Solana, Ripple, Monero, and TON next in line.

“We’ve used several crypto payment providers over the years, including BTCPay Server, NOWPayments, and others, but PayRam stands out as truly open and built for the modern internet economy. It gives us full control over our payments and funds, along with stablecoin support, privacy, multi-chain flexibility, and faster global settlements,” said an iGaming operator using PayRam.

PayRam Prepares to Support Agentic Betting With Privacy and Automation

Agentic betting represents the next evolution of iGaming, where autonomous software agents will place bets, execute strategies, manage bankrolls, and settle wagers in real time without human intervention. These systems already power algorithmic trading in financial markets, and iGaming infrastructure now begins to move in the same direction.

Most existing betting and payment infrastructure cannot support this shift. Centralized processors expose transaction logic, restrict automated flows, and introduce settlement delays that break agent-driven wagering models at scale.

PayRam is actively adopting the foundational standards and infrastructure required to support agentic betting in the future. The platform is positioning itself as a privacy-first, decentralized payment layer that will allow autonomous betting systems to operate with:

  • Private stablecoin deposits
  • Real-time settlement logic
  • Automated treasury and bankroll flows
  • Programmable payout execution
  • Full self-custody and non-custodial risk isolation

By preparing to adopt open standards such as x402 and ERC-8004, PayRam aims to support interoperable and intelligent payment flows between autonomous betting systems, sportsbooks, and gaming platforms when the agentic wagering ecosystem reaches production maturity.

Through this approach, PayRam is building the foundation for a future where payments are private, programmable, and permissionless.

About PayRam

PayRam is the world’s first self-hosted private stablecoin processor, giving merchants and individuals complete control over their payments stack. Built for the next era of permissionless commerce, it merges stablecoin payments with self-hosted infrastructure to enable borderless, censorship-resistant transactions.
