i-lotto products could be key to cashing in on global lottery growth

Published

on

According to Research and Markets, the global lottery market is expanding at a CAGR of about 8% per annum – but gambling platforms will need ever more innovative ideas to make the most of this boom. One new business providing the type of disruptive technology that can provide a competitive edge is Link2Win. We asked their Chief Operating Officer, Richard Clarke – who has a track record of delivering successful products and gaming operations around the globe for bookmakers such as Ladbrokes and GalaCoral, and in the B2B sector with Iforium and Vermantia – to give us three reasons why he thinks i-lotto or numbers orientated products could be the key needed to unlock this growth market.

Huge jackpots

It’s a fact, large numerical based numbers attract attention. They can stand out amongst the information overload that characterises our digital media consumed lives. Jackpots are everywhere to be won, from betting on the outcomes of lotteries, to sports predictions, the list is endless. Just look at how successful progressive slots have become. The record-breaking Mega Moolah jackpot of £13.2million, won in October 2015 by British soldier Jonathon Heywood from the United Kingdom, is just one example. You can even win €1million for this year’s UEFA Euros 2016 football tournament by correctly predicting the match results of the entire tournament. It’s no surprise really, the allure of life-changing wins from a single spin, bet, or ticket captures the imagination of us all at some time.

Mass market appeal

The term ‘differentiation’ may have become something of a cliché in the iGaming industry, but the reality is that differentiation can and does take many forms to allow a business to compete within its category to attract new customers, and retain existing ones. Lottery or numbers based games, by virtue that they are games of chance, simply have a much broader appeal because the participant doesn’t have to have an in-depth knowledge about what is being gambled on, as does say a poker or a sports betting gambler. Simply put, the barriers to conversion are much reduced.

The power of psychology  

Numerous studies have been conducted into the psychology behind playing lotteries or number orientated games – and research shows that for most people this type of game fires-up the emotional side of the brain by generating a desire to win significantly large prizes. It’s a huge stimulation which can’t be ignored, and the major driving force which keeps players coming back for more, again and again. EuroMillions and America’s PowerBall jackpots are prime examples of this.

European regulators to ban binary options and crackdown on spread betting

Published

on

European regulators revealed plans to outlaw one of the most popular trading products available to the public.

The European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) wants to ban the sale of binary options to retail clients.

The prohibition is part of a wider clampdown on the spread betting sector that would also see contracts for differences leverage (CFD) limits – the amount of risk/reward a retail investor can expose themselves to – dramatically reduced.

One year ago, City watchdog the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), surprised the spread betting sector by unveiling its own plans to protect retail investors. A number of other European regulators followed suit and during this summer the matter was passed onto ESMA, so changes could be imposed Europe-wide.

ESMA said it will conduct “a brief public consultation in January 2018” on its plans. Once put in place, it would be the first time ESMA has used so-called “intervention powers” in financial markets.

The changes may come as a blow to some spread betting firms, which have booked bumper profits during 2017.

Others, of which CMC Markets has been very vocal on several occasions, believe the clampdown will help business by forcing rivals that focus on “lower-value” customers out of business.

William Hill airs concerns over NYX-Scientific Games deal

Published

on

William Hill has said that it is to consider its options regarding Scientific Games’ proposed acquisition of NYX Gaming Group.

 

In September, Scientific Games agreed to acquire NYX for approximately CAD$775m (€525m/US$609.2m), in a deal it said would lead to the creation of a “global digital gaming and lottery powerhouse”.

However, William Hill has now said it will look in detail at the deal in regards to contractual rights it obtained when it enabled NYX to purchase OpenBet.

William Hill said “no decision has been made at this time” and, despite reports, “refutes in the strongest terms that any anti-competitive measure have been requested or is being demanded”.

The company added: “William Hill confirms that it has issued a conversion notice to convert its holding of convertible preference shares and has commenced legal action in order that it may also vote such shares at the special meeting of shareholders.

William Hill does not wish to make any further comment on those proceedings at this time, other to confirm that it will continue to act in the best interests of its shareholders.

William Hill owns and controls 6,800,000 ordinary shares of NYX and £80m of preference shares of NYX Digital Gaming, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of NYX.

Theses shares are initially convertible into approximately 40,723,339 ordinary shares of NYX, based on an initial conversion price of CAD$3.67 per ordinary share.
