Nefta partners with VIKER to bring blockchain technology to casual mobile games
Nefta will partner with VIKER to help pursue its goal of building the world’s largest blockchain gaming community
Nefta, the Web3 technology platform, has announced a new partnership with VIKER, a blockchain gaming studio with a growing portfolio of Play-And-Earn mobile games. Nefta will provide its end-to-end Web3 technology to VIKER in order to facilitate deeper blockchain integration in its current and upcoming games.
With a commitment to making Web3 gaming more accessible, VIKER boasts a growing portfolio of casual mobile games which are fully built into the blockchain, meaning that players can earn crypto currency while playing their favourite games.
Nefta will also play an integral part in the launch of VIKER’s very own Genesis NFTs, by minting the tokens and launching its marketplace. Each NFT will act as an earning multiplier, giving the user instant utility and an even better gaming experience. The first wave of games where players will be able to access the NFTs include SOLITAIRE, BALLS KING, and WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE.
Geeshan Willink, CEO and Co-Founder of Nefta, said: “The team at VIKER is poised to make huge strides in the Web3 gaming space. They have already made some beautifully crafted games which are ripe for Web3 integration. We’re excited by this partnership because we’re scaling their gaming audience, introducing the ability to onboard Web3 gaming guilds and partner ecosystems. In addition, with the introduction of the Nefta AdSDK, we will enable VIKER to increase the LTV of web3 users.”
Built on Polygon, an Ethereum-based platform, VIKER and Nefta will take advantage of the proof-of-stake chain to increase transaction speed and reduce fees, as well as lowering the environmental burden imposed by proof-of-work blockchains. By partnering with Nefta, VIKER is poised to lead further accessibility in blockchain gaming, with no joining fees or wallet requirements.
Ben Cusack, Founder of VIKER, said: “We started VIKER with the ambitious goal of bringing Play-and-Earn to one billion players, and to reward them for spending time in-game. We wanted to streamline game development, while maintaining a high-quality output. With Nefta’s end-to-end blockchain solution, we will continue to bring the best Play-and-Earn games to players, while offering high calibre, worthwhile rewards.
“We’ve grown VIKER to the point of achieving over 80 million downloads across all our games, in over 100 countries. With this new partnership, we can bring more fun and rewarding game experiences to an even bigger audience, democratising access to crypto in the process.”

GR8 Tech stepped into SiGMA Central Europe (November 3–6, Rome) and left the ring with the strongest sales performance on record. Fueled by the boxing-themed Platform for Champions experience, the collaboration with Behind The Gloves, and demos of ULTIM8 Sportsbook, the Heavyweight Club energy translated directly into standout sales performance.
Platform for Champions, Proven in the Arena
Over three days, GR8 Tech logged 140 qualified meetings, which included sessions with existing clients that opened new opportunities and first-time conversations with operators and potential clients. The team also closed a deal on day 3 and advanced a high-potential MENA operator to late-stage discussions.
“SiGMA was incredibly successful for GR8 Tech, which confirms we’re on the right track and proves how our Platform for Champions stands out in a crowded field. Our Heavyweight Lounge became the meeting place for operators who want to go deep on strategy, margins, and market moves with purposeful, energetic, outcome-focused conversations,” said Sergey Ghazaryan, Chief Revenue Officer at GR8 Tech.
SiGMA Central Europe showcased the Heavyweight Club philosophy, inspired by GR8 Tech’s partnership with Ready To Fight by Oleksandr Usyk: champions create champions. By pairing athlete-grade preparation with operator-grade technology, GR8 Tech has grown a community of operators aligned by a code: launch first, perform under pressure, and compound advantage through the right partner.
Big Stage Energy from Behind The Gloves Experience
During the three-day conference, over 50 visitors participated in 15-minute pad-work sessions led by Lee McFarland, a British military veteran and iGaming consultant. The short power workouts transformed the GR8 Tech stand into a hub of energy that converted into productive business conversations.
“Performance is something you live, so we built an environment where attendees could experience it. Bringing Behind The Gloves to our booth embodied the discipline and drive we build into our technology,” said Yevhen Krazhan, Chief Sales Officer at GR8 Tech.
GR8 Tech’s team left Rome with disciplined follow-through and a full calendar of next steps. The Lounge and “Behind The Gloves” drove high-quality conversations, and the company will continue to improve the experience for champions at future events.
