Everygame Casino’s new Escape the North slot takes players on a mythical adventure in the land of ancient Norse warriors. This epic new slot game from SpinLogic has Multiplier Sticky Wilds, a Bonus Bet feature and a Buy Bet feature.

Escape the North’s Scatter symbol is a Snake and can trigger ten free games.

Odin is a Multiplier Sticky Wild that can lock in place and increase the multiplier with every non-winning spin. The Countdown Sticky Wild amps up the action by granting up to four re-spins for a chance at added wins. Both of these Wilds appear during both Free Games and regular spins.

Players can use the Buy Feature to access the special features of Free Games any time. When 13 Free Games are purchased with the Buy Feature, the Multiplier is held in position, even during non-winning spins.

The Bonus Bet feature guarantees at least one Wild will appear on every spin.

One of the oldest and most trusted online casinos in the world, Everygame Casino has hundreds of full-featured slots and table games from SpinLogic.

Data analytics platform beBettor has partnered with EveryMatrix to provide its UK licenced operator partners with frictionless financial vulnerability checks.

In response to Summer 2023 consultations and new UK Gambling Commission regulation coming into force at the end of August this year, beBettor checks will identify financial vulnerability such as where a customer is subject to bankruptcy orders or has a history of unpaid debts.

Checks will initially be introduced at a higher threshold of £500 net deposits in a rolling 30-day period from 30th August 2024. This threshold will then fall to £150 net deposits in a rolling 30-day period from 28th February 2025.

beBettor technology will be integrated across several of EveryMatrix’s modular platform products to further strengthen its operator partners’ responsible gambling controls for all UK players.

Jake Cachia, Head of Compliance, EveryMatrix, said: “As a business, we pride ourselves in delivering the best service to our operator partners. This will provide our customers with additional robust responsible gambling controls while meeting new UK requirements without any friction so we’re delighted to be working together with beBettor.”

Sonny Cott, beBettor Chief Insights Officer, said: “Our aim is to help operators fully meet this new UKGC requirement in a seamless way that minimises business impact. As the 30th August deadline approaches, we are seeing more and more UK licensed operators opt for our frictionless and non-intrusive financial vulnerability solution. Today, it’s brilliant to announce partnering with EveryMatrix as an award winning sportsbook and iGaming supplier and I look forward to working closely with both EveryMatrix and their operator partners.”

The Charity Commission has concluded its investigation into GambleAware without issuing any criticism or findings against the organisation.

Zoe Osmond, CEO of GambleAware, said: “The Charity Commission has written to GambleAware to confirm the case has been closed without criticism, or findings against, the organisation. The Regulator has stated unequivocally that they are ‘assured that the trustees have taken appropriate steps to both ensure its [GambleAware’s] independence from the gambling industry and to address reputational risks arising from its current funding model’.

“Importantly, the Commission has also stated it is ‘satisfied that the Charity’s reliance on industry funding does not impact on decision-making about its activities’. We were pleased to see the Commission acknowledge our robust policies and governance processes as well as the important role our Lived Experience Council plays in providing advice and direction to our activities, among others.

“Gambling harms have a devastating impact on individuals, families, and communities. GambleAware is wholly dedicated to advancing our charitable purposes for the public benefit, which is why we have long called for the introduction of a statutory levy on the gambling industry to provide long-term sustainable funding for the treatment, support and prevention of gambling harms.

“We urge anyone experiencing harm to reach out. Help and support are available through the National Gambling Support Network and the National Gambling Helpline, offering free, confidential assistance 24/7 to those in need.”
