Pavilion Payments, the leading omnichannel payments provider exclusively serving the gaming industry, has announced its innovative iGaming Software Development Kit (SDK). This toolkit aims to offer operators a seamless and efficient solution to simplify the integration of Pavilion Payments' VIP Preferred program.

The iGaming SDK builds upon the functionality of the industry leading iGaming XML standard format for storing data, delivering a superior experience for both operators and players. With this powerful toolkit, operators no longer need to invest time and resources in designing and coding the front end or back end of their platforms. This new development is scheduled to be rolled out in multiple states including Pennsylvania, Indiana, Virginia, Arizona and New Jersey, in late summer of 2023 with one operator and another in 16 markets as a fast follower.

In addition to these core functionalities, the iGaming SDK equips players with the tools to manage their funding sources effectively. With Pavilion Payments’ ACH/Bank feature, the iGaming SDK ensures a streamlined experience for players. The iGaming SDK offers a range of customization options, such as the use of online bank credentials for enhanced security and efficiency while also providing control over their deposit limits. SDK offers a platform that allows operators to quickly enable new features, including SameDay ACH, Credit/Debit acceptance, Real Time Payments (RTP) and risk enhancements without additional development by the operator.

The American Gaming Association’s (AGA) State of the States Report shows iGaming grossed $1.48 billion in Q1 2023, marking a 22.7 percent year-over-year revenue increase. iGaming is an important sector of the gaming industry and as it evolves, technology and solutions need to adapt to the needs of patrons.

“The launch of the iGaming SDK reinforces Pavilion Payments' commitment to providing innovative and user-centric solutions for the iGaming industry,” said Christopher Justice, CEO of Pavilion Payments. “Our goal is to empower operators by offering a toolkit that simplifies the implementation of our VIP Preferred payment option, ultimately enhancing player satisfaction and streamlining transactions. With its seamless integration capabilities and user-friendly interface, the iGaming SDK is set to redefine the online gaming experience for both operators and players alike.”

globenewswire | July 14, 2023

Cover Genius, the insurtech for embedded protection, has partnered with AudienceView, a global leader in ticketing and e-commerce solutions for the live entertainment industry, to offer embedded Refund Protection to thousands of venues and event businesses worldwide. This partnership follows a period of significant growth for the insurtech as it has seen a 251% increase in global live entertainment sales since June 2022. Cover Genius is the chosen Refund Protection partner for some of the world’s largest ticketing platforms, events, venues and resellers including, AXS, FreshTix, Tessitura, SeatGeek, Outbox, Spektrix and more. Its award-winning distribution platform, XCover, offers a number of unique capabilities including AI-backed optimized pricing in real-time and insurance and non-insurance solutions that are adapted for different markets. With Audienceview, Cover Genius is the merchant of record for venues that don’t take payment upfront, and is the licensed or authorized agent where needed. “Data shows that adding protection within the checkout experience increases purchase conversion rates by 8%‡,” said Angus McDonald, CEO and Co-founder of Cover Genius. “This increase in core conversion, or what’s called the “Protection Effect”, drives the conversion rate for AudienceView’s venue partners, leading to more ticket sales and increased loyalty.” Live ticketholders also benefit from a seamless customer journey via XCover.com. XCover.com handles customers’ needs – from the initial sale through to administration and refunds – resulting in an industry-leading post-claims NPS of +65. Its award-winning service design has been shown to reduce support tickets by 7x.‡ “As consumers return to live events after years of uncertainty, data shows that they want relevant protection that offers them a sense of security and, more or less, differs from the “one-size-fits-all” approach that has traditionally been offered in the space,” said McDonald. “By adding relevant protection, such as CFAR, to the checkout experience, customers and brands benefit.” A Refund Protection Survey, conducted by Momentive.ai and commissioned by Cover Genius, found 54% of global ticketholders would be highly likely to buy Refund Protection for tickets for common issues like illness and injury, a number that grows by 9% if the protection is unlimited. Respondents said they’d be willing to pay 123% more for this ‘Cancel for any Reason’ (CFAR) protection, with most of them nominating convenience as the primary reason.

Exploding Kittens Launches New Challenge-Based Party Game, Without Fail

Businesswire | July 10, 2023

Exploding Kittens, a leading gaming and entertainment company, announced the launch of its newest title Without Fail, a game of seemingly easy challenges made horribly difficult by the other players. Each challenge entails physical activity, props, and betting on other players’ abilities, making Without Fail the perfect, socially engaging addition to any game night. “We’ve always said our goal at Exploding Kittens is to not only make entertaining games, but to make the players themselves more entertaining,” said Elan Lee, Co-Creator and CEO of Exploding Kittens. “Without Fail’s brand new challenge mechanics take that concept to a new level. Every challenge starts out simple, but quickly gets harder and sometimes impossible as your friends try to outbid each other on what they think you’re capable of.” The party game offers 150 challenges, involving props like a blindfold, cups and balls, dice, pens, and more – all provided in the game box. The challenges are simple, but there’s a catch. Before a player begins a challenge, their friends bet on how difficult the challenge can be made without failing. The friend who makes the challenge the hardest becomes that player's teammate, and they both score if the player can successfully complete the challenge. However, if they upped the stakes too high and the challenger fails, then all other players earn a point, and the challenger and their teammate both lose points. Success is based entirely on whether players are good judges of their friends’ abilities. “As we've been seeing more games get noticed on social media, we knew we wanted to make a game that was as fun to watch as it is to play,” said Carol Mertz, Senior Game Designer at Exploding Kittens. “Without Fail is meant to incorporate everyone — players and audience alike — to get folks laughing and having a great time whether they're in the room or seeing it on TikTok.” Best for players 10 and up, Without Fail is ideal for group entertainment but can be played with as few as 2 players. Easy to learn with a 20-minute play time, the game’s endless variations and hysterical curveballs keep players coming back for more. Without Fail provides an entirely new gameplay experience each time, not only due to the number of challenges but because the betting and execution vary each round. Without Fail is available now at ExplodingKittens.com for $24.99. The game will also be available in-store and online at Walmart starting July 29 and Target starting July 30.

About Exploding Kittens Exploding Kittens is a leading game and entertainment company with a mission to inspire people to connect, laugh, and play fun games in the physical world. To date, Exploding Kittens is the #1 most-backed project in Kickstarter history and has sold over 25 million games. Started by former Xbox game designer Elan Lee and The Oatmeal’s founder Matthew Inman, Exploding Kittens and its family of games seek to reshape traditional game night into an entertaining person-to-person experience. Today, there are nearly 30 games available for purchase, an exclusive Exploding Kittens mobile game for Netflix subscribers, a free-to-play app, Kitty Letter, and an Exploding Kittens mobile app available iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch as well as an animated Netflix series titled ‘Exploding Kittens’ launching later this year.
