Step into the heart of the untamed frontier in Bison Moon – Power Combo, a slot from Northern Lights Gaming that captures the rugged beauty and boundless thrill of the Great Plains with plenty of big wins in store.

Adding to the excitement is the Jackpot feature, which has been embedded within the Link&Win bonus. Players must land Jackpot Moons to trigger either Mini or Major Jackpot wins or fill the reels to unlock the Grand Jackpot and the game’s largest payouts.
For the boldest of adventurers, keep watch for the Scatters that turn into Golden Eagles. Collect five in total, and they can activate the Golden Eagle Pick’Em bonus.
From the serene beauty of the open plains to the heart-pounding moments of chasing down the Jackpots and Golden Eagles, Bison Moon Power Combo provides a slotting experience like no other.
All that players need to do to enjoy it is saddle up, embrace the wild and discover the riches waiting to be uncovered under the vast Western skies.

Checkd Dev and OpenBet Partner to Launch Advanced Trending BetBuilder Automated Betting Solution
Checkd Dev, the leading iGaming technology specialist and part of the award-winning Checkd Group, has entered into a landmark three-year partnership with OpenBet, a leading provider of betting and gaming technology, content, and services. Together, they will deliver a next-generation Automated Betting Solution (ABS), known as ‘Trending BetBuilder,’ designed to enhance the pre-canned BetBuilder experience.
This strategic collaboration represents a significant milestone for Checkd Dev as it brings its proprietary ABS technology to the BetBuilder vertical for the first time, further expanding the product’s versatility and market impact.
Originally launched in 2023 to optimise the user experience of incorporating key statistics into the accumulator bet journey and increasing bet placement conversion for operators, Checkd Dev’s ABS has now evolved to serve the growing demand for automated, pre-canned bet builder content.
Trending BetBuilder integrates seamlessly with OpenBet’s market-leading pricing and BetBuilder capabilities, powered by SportCast, giving operators a powerful, scalable tool to curate engaging betting opportunities.
The partnership allows OpenBet’s global network of operators to benefit from: Dynamic, stats-driven pre-canned widgets for front-end user engagement, a fully automated back-end system for bet creation, management, and localisation, and a multi-territory ready interface that supports global scalability through a centralised, intuitive admin control panel.
This single integration delivers two key outcomes for operators: significantly increased pre-canned bet builder conversion rates and major operational efficiencies—saving trading teams valuable hours daily.
OpenBet’s BetBuilder, powered by SportCast, has revolutionised the sports betting landscape. This innovative product pioneered player stats and same-game betting, offering a premium and highly personalised experience. Today, it provides unparalleled entertainment to the world’s leading sportsbooks.
Commenting on the partnership, Andrew Grimshaw, Commercial Director at Checkd Dev, said: “This is an exciting step forward for Checkd Dev. Working alongside OpenBet’s SportCast, one of the most respected names in our industry, we’re thrilled to introduce a powerful, automated solution to their extensive global client base.
“Our accumulator product has already proven its value with Tier 1 operators in the UK market. With this expanded ABS now tailored for pre-canned bet builders, we’re confident OpenBet clients will experience both uplift in conversion and operational time savings in what is a high-margin, high-volume betting category.”
Jason Ayton, SVP Business Development & Strategy at OpenBet, said: “Through our BetBuilder product, powered by SportCast, we provide customers with highly engaging, personal digital experiences that immerse them in the excitement of live sport.
“Trending BetBuilder takes the product to the next level for our partners. It offers an automated solution that gives operators around the world a pre-canned content solution that is highly scalable and adaptable to local markets. We believe it will have a major positive impact on the market as it rolls out with our global partner base.”
