A new provider of white gaming label casino solutions for iGaming operators has hit the market. The company in question is White Label Casinos, a former part of iGaming Group. The newly-separated studio will seek to revolutionize iGaming with intuitive products that are easy to use by industry startups and established companies alike.
White Label Studios Wanted More Independence
As announced by Phil Pearson, the new entity’s chief executive officer, White Label Casinos’ goal is to create laser-focused white label solutions and provide its clients with all the tools they need to set up shop. The company will look to create products that are both efficient and cost-effective.
After branching off from iGaming Group, White Label Casinos will move to new offices in Pendergardens, Malta. The company will start off with 170 workers, which will help it quickly cement its place in the industry.
In addition, the new entity will continue to serve the clients it worked with during its time as a part of the iGaming Group. Thus, White Label Casinos will have over 40 casino partners from the get-go.
White Label Casinos’ decision to exit iGaming Group came as the company sought a higher degree of autonomy. Still, the newly formed business will continue to maintain a client/platform relationship with its former group.
The Brand Fills an Important Gap
CEO Pearson believes that the formation of White Label Casinos will fill an important gap in the market. He noted that until the foundation of the new business, there were no independent companies offering the same products White Label Casinos will offer.
In addition, White Label Casino will differ from its competitors as it plans to do more than just take land-based casinos online or mitigate risk of existing white label companies. Instead, the company will work with capable and creative people that know how to channel players toward a platform and promote brands. Innovation and responsible gambling will sit at the forefront of what the company will do.
Sure, we may be quirky and edgy, but when it comes down to it myself, and my team will always go the extra mile for our clients at any time that we are asked, or often before we are asked.
Phil Pearson, CEO, White Label Casinos
The company, Pearson said, will focus on differentiation by building long-standing relationships and offering unique services. White Label Casinos’ plans for the near future include securing licenses in key new markets and the launch of a proprietary business-to-customer casino brand.
Compliable is a company that works with state regulators and specializes in helping individuals who hope to work in the gaming industry to go through the licensing process quickly and easily.
Compliable Will Simplify the Licensing Process for New Employees
The company will make sure that gaming employees have a streamlined application process with Compliable taking over the application and submitting the finalized data directly to SLOTS Link, which is the Keystone State’s gambling portal.
Compliable makes it much easier for employers and employees to stay on top of how far the process has come along. For example, thanks to Compliable, employees and future gaming specialists can simplify the process of applying in other states as well as the one they are licensed in or the one they target presently.
Employers, for their part, can reference the platform to quickly see how far an employee’s license application has progressed. More importantly, Compliable makes sure to optimize the overall application process. Compliable’s platform was launched in 2020 but it has been quickly gaining popularity around the United States.
The platform has made it particularly easy to track licensing applications across multiple states and has further simplified the process for compliance teams at various companies who have been keen to hire more workers but have had to deal with reams of red tape and a strict regulatory process.
Streamlining the Employee Licensing Process in PA and Beyond
Now, this is outsourced to Compliable which has been in business since 2020 and enjoying the trust of leading gaming companies. Compliable CEO Chris Oltyan welcomed the opportunity for his company and added that the company now offered licensing technology in Pennsylvania to the benefit of anyone who is looking to gain accreditation in the state.
“We built our platform to make licensing easier for everyone and we are pleased to now support licensing through a state portal,” Oltyan said. Oltyan added that the company was committed to helping the game industry move forward towards a more efficient licensing process that covers multiple jurisdictions.

When Ojos Locos Sports Cantina Y Casino and the freshly renovated Hotel Jefe in North Las Vegas open for business next week, the pair will make US history.
first hotel-casino targeted specifically at a Latino market
The result of a partnership between Fifth Street Gaming (FSG) and Ojos Locos Sports Cantina, Monday’s opening will debut the US’s first hotel-casino targeted specifically at a Latino market. Las Vegas Locally shared the news via Twitter:

Las Vegas casino management company FSG and its Texas-based partner, the Mexican restaurant and sports bar chain Ojos, kick off their joint venture in a totally rebranded Lucky Club Hotel & Casino.
Citing a press release, the Las Vegas Review-Journal said the collaboration’s centerpiece was an Ojos Locos Sports Cantina in the middle of a “10,000-square-foot casino with a capacity of nearly 300 people.”
Community-tailored gambling hub
Lucky Club was already popular among North Las Vegas’s Hispanic community, as well as truckers. It remains to be seen if the old crowd takes to the new joint, with its fresh lineup of a sportsbook, 200 slot and gaming machines, and 35 seats at the restaurant’s video poker bar.
potential new attraction comes by way of the “Mexican Hooters” tag
Another potential extra attraction comes by way of the “Mexican Hooters” tag Ojos’s vice president of growth, Laura Caudillo, admits customers have identified her company with in the past.
In a statement, Caudillo said the FSG partnership enabled Ojos to bring its “first-ever Ojos gaming experience to market.” The Ojos exec added her firm looked forward to “welcoming the Latino community” to the hotel-casino’s “flagship location.”
Cheeky change
Eater Las Vegas, meanwhile, cited Caudillo as stating the new establishment “caters to the Latinx community through staff, language, and atmosphere.” She added that 80% of the music played at Ojos is of Latin origin, while most of its staff speak Spanish, and that signage “is written in Spanish, often with cheeky innuendos.”
The exec also said the refurbished hotel-casino’s restaurant had a deliberate “unfinished look,” Caudillo said the corrugated aluminum resembles patrons’ construction sites, but is still attractive.
“It’s nice, but not so nice that they don’t want to come in in their work boots.”

Every sports fan knows that the playoffs are where true legends are made. After all, professional sport is not about taking part.
Every player, coach, and fan desperately want to win, and if you put a run together in the playoffs, you could go down in history.
Here are some of the biggest stories from the history of the NFL playoffs, including some all-time great wild card teams that will forever be in fans’ hearts.
New York Jets – 2009
If you’ve followed the NFL for any length of time, you’ll know that the New York Jets and the playoffs don’t exactly go together like a hot dog and ketchup.
The Jets have qualified for the playoffs just 14 times in their history, which is a pretty terrible record considering over a third of the other teams didn’t even exist when the Jets were founded in 1960.
But, that all changed in the 2009-10 season when the Jets and head coach Rex Ryan reached the AFC Championship game, only to be denied a Super Bowl spot by the Peyton Manning-led Indianapolis Colts.
Ever heard of him? Me neither.
The Jets reached the playoffs as wild cards after finishing second in the AFC East division.
They beat the third-ranked Cincinnati Bengals and second-seeded San Diego Chargers on the way to the Championship game, but no one even gave them a chance of making the playoffs when they slumped to a 4-6 record after 10 games.
Sportsbooks, commentators, and fans alike were equally shocked by the Jets’ performance.
Despite falling short, the Jets’ playoff antics went down in NFL folk law, and many fans still remember their run fondly.
New York Giants – 2007

Thanks to a poor season in 2006, expectations were low for the Giants in 2007. Head coach Tom Coughlin and starting QB Eli Manning were both under massive pressure.
Eli wasn’t helped by the fact that 2004 draft alumni Ben Roethlisberger and Philip Rivers were leading their respective teams with aplomb, while his older brother was reigning Super Bowl champion and MVP.
The season started badly, too, losing their first two games. However, the team recovered to an overall record of 10-6 and clinched a wildcard spot in the playoffs.
Again, no one gave the Giants a chance to go deep, with Eli Manning having never won a playoff game before.
That quickly changed when the Giants claimed a 24-14 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and were off to the races.
They followed this up with a win over the Dallas Cowboys and an overtime victory against the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Championship game to book their place in the Super Bowl.
Surely glory was a step too far, as the Giants faced the Patriots and Tom Brady, who already had three Super Bowl wins to his name.
But the Giants would not be denied, and following an incredible play by Eli Manning and David Tyree, which has since become known as the “helmet catch”’ (with just 1.15 on the clock in the final quarter), they secured victory.
This made the Giants just the fifth team in NFL history to win the Super Bowl as a wild card team and confirmed the greatness of the Manning football dynasty.
Baltimore Ravens – 2000
Defense wins championships; just ask Super Bowl XXXV winners, the Baltimore Ravens.
After qualifying as a wild card, the Ravens dominated their opposition throughout the playoffs with outrageous defensive prowess.
Remarkably, the Ravens’ defense gave up just 23 points to their playoff opponents in total across four games.
Their offense struggled throughout the season but did their job as they dominated the New York Giants in the Super Bowl, running out as 34-7 victors.
Regarded as one of if not the greatest NFL defense of all time, the Ravens were led by 13-time Pro Bowler Ray Lewis.
The hall of famer was named Super Bowl XXXV MVP and was inspirational throughout the playoffs.
He recorded 31 tackles, two interceptions, 9 pass deflections, one fumble recovery, and a touchdown during the run. Big game player.
The Baltimore Ravens rightfully take their place in NFL playoff history. Maybe one for the purists, though.
New England Patriots – 1985
The Patriots are synonymous with success over the last two decades in the NFL, largely due to the Belichick/Brady combination that brought no less than six Super Bowl wins to Foxborough.
Belichick (six) and Brady (seven) top the lists of head coaches, and quarterbacks with the most Super Bowl wins in history. Not too shabby.
But, before this dynamic duo changed the face of modern football, the Pats didn’t have a single Super Bowl win to their name.
This was despite the best efforts of the 1985 team, who, against all odds, made the Super Bowl, only to be outdone by another all-time great defense, the Chicago Bears.
Noticing a theme here?
The Patriots became the first team in NFL history to win all three road games on the way to the Super Bowl, beating the Jets, Raiders, and Dolphins, respectively.
No one in the league gave this a chance, especially because the Patriots were beaten by all of these teams in those stadiums in the regular season.
It wasn’t to be in 1985, but it was still an all-time great playoff run.
And it worked out alright for the Patriots in the end, too. Good things come to those who wait.
Pittsburgh Steelers – 1972
The greatest moment in NFL playoff history, and possibly NFL history in general, came between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Oakland Raiders in the AFC Divisional playoff game in 1972.
Widely known as the “Immaculate Reception,” a play of sheer madness saw the Steelers score a touchdown while trailing 7-6 with just a few seconds remaining in the game.
It was fourth down, and there were 22 seconds on the clock.
Steelers QB Terry Bradshaw was under huge pressure from the Raiders’ defensive line. He scrambled out of the pocket and dodged a tackle before throwing the ball toward his running back, John Fuqua.
The pass was overthrown, and the Raiders safety Jack Tatum broke it up, and that was game over. Or so it seemed…
The ball actually cannoned off Tatum’s helmet. It ricocheted up into the air and the grateful arms of the on-running Steelers fullback, Franco Harris.
He picked the ball up on about the 40-yard line, evaded the scattered Raiders defenders, and ran the ball home for a touchdown.
Although the Steelers lost the AFC championship game to the Miami Dolphins the following week, this game will always be remembered for this single play alone.
The play has to be seen to be believed and the shock on the faces of the Raiders’ defenders said it all.
They were incredibly unlucky to lose in such a way, but for everyone else, it was a play we’d never forget.
Twitch’s live-streaming platform is where many entertainers make their life’s earnings. And often, viewers shell out hundreds or thousands of dollars to support their favorite content creators.
even the streamers themselves didn’t know what to think
Some donations seen on Twitch have been so mind-blowing even the streamers themselves didn’t know what to think. Now, VegasSlotsOnline News will look at five of the biggest legitimate donations ever given on the Amazon-owned streaming platform.
1. Dr. Lupo – $1m
One million dollars is quite a sum of money, and during a charity stream, popular Twitch streamer Dr. Lupo received exactly that amount from Twitch itself.
Benjamin Lupo, otherwise known as Dr. Lupo, had a target to raise $2m for cancer research during a charity stream for St. Jude. Even after a sizeable joint donation from Mr. Beast and Ninja, Dr. Lupo still raked in a singular $1m from Twitch:
Though some noteworthy donations are purposefully seeded to boost the visibility and popularity of the site, Twitch’s monster move still stands today as the largest donation in the history of the streaming platform. However, since then Dr. Lupo has dropped Twitch and signed an exclusive deal with YouTube Gaming.
2. Ninja – $100,000
Anyone familiar with Twitch has likely have heard of the streaming icon Ninja. Ninja (Richard Tyler Blevins) is a popular professional gamer that soared to stardom by playing the battle royale video game Fortnite.
Like Dr. Lupo, Ninja received a mammoth donation while streaming for charity. During the GuardianCon charity stream, he received a $100,000 donation from an anonymous donor. GuardianCon is a gaming convention that donates its proceeds to St. Jude.
The name of the anonymous donor was never given, but Ninja was evidently blown away by their generosity. He responded with:
“Are you out of this world!?”
3. ExoticChaotic – $75,000
A natural reaction to getting a donation of thousands of dollars is blatant disbelief. That’s precisely what Fortnite streamer ExoticChaotic (Dallas Whitaker) displayed when he received a donation of a whopping $75,000.
Often, only high-profile streamers get monstrous donations, and ExoticChaotic wasn’t necessarily a big streamer when he received the third-largest donation in Twitch history. Immediately after receiving it, he logged into his PayPal account to confirm it was legitimate.
It was gifted to him by a Twitch user named KingMascot, who was an early Bitcoin investor and a friend of ExoticChaotic. He knew that Whitaker was having a rough time streaming and wanted to use his wealth to support his friend:
@KingMascotTV just donated $75,000 to my twitch channel………SEVENTY FIVE THOUSAND…..i really am slowly trying to process that still

4. CouRage – $70,000
After challenging Jack ‘CouRage’ Dunlop to win a Fortnite game, Mr. Beast and Miniminter joint-donated the streamer a stunning $70,000.
Mr. Beast has already made a name for himself as an entertainer, philanthropist, and charitable giver. Estimates suggest that he has given away more than $20m to thousands of people since his first video on YouTube.
the pair donated $100,000 on that day
The streamer confirmed that he and Miniminter actually contacted a number of different content creators on the same day to let them know they would receive substantial rewards if they won their next Fortnite Solos match. Ultimately, the pair donated $100,000 on that day, the largest portion going to CouRage.
5. Amouranth – $70,000
Amouranth is one of the top female streamers worldwide and is currently the most-viewed female streamer on Twitch. Her largest-ever donation was gifted to her in person:
More specifically, after opening a package on stream, Amouranth discovered that an anonymous viewer had sent her $70,000 in cash. The unknown box also contained a brand-new iPhone, self-defense weapons, and phone numbers for pre-paid “bodyguards.”
Though she confirmed on-stream that the funds seemed legitimate, there’s been no further confirmation on whether or not the money was, in fact, real.
