⚡️ IREV: a platform for iGaming teams

Affiliate marketing has long moved beyond “links and reports.” Today, it’s about traffic control, saving time, and protecting budgets. That’s exactly what IREV was built for.

The platform was launched based on real requests from iGaming teams — with a focus on flexibility, fast integrations, and hands-on support. In terms of software and approach, IREV confidently competes with major market players, but without excessive pricing overhead.

📌 We spoke with the IREV team about how and for whom the platform was created. Inside the article:
— OX Tech case: 3.5x volume growth in LatAm and EU
— Attribution in the privacy era: working without storing personal data
— Traffic quality control via deposits and baselines
— Reports that adapt to your workflows — not the other way around

If someone offers you the lowest price on the market, it doesn’t mean you’ll stay within your planned budget when launching an affiliate program.

👉 If you’re looking for a solid iGaming platform and want to understand why strong teams choose IREV — this article is worth your time. For 3SNET partners, a 10% discount is available via promo code — details inside the article.

🔥 iGaming this week: the market is choosing its direction

Good morning! We’re back with the weekly agenda. As the year comes to an end, the market is behaving in a very telling way. Some reforms are slowing down, some regions are counting money, and others are finally shutting down grey schemes. We’ve put together the final weekly snapshot — to close the year with a clear understanding of where everything is really heading.

📌 Outlooks: good and not so good
— Poland: the president vetoed the increase of the winnings tax from 10% to 15%. A relief for both players and operators.
— Japan: parliament blocked the legalization of sports betting. Instead, measures against illegal gambling are being prepared.
— Thailand: casino development plans are on pause due to political uncertainty.
— Hawaii: discussions on legalizing gambling and betting are back — the budget needs to cover a $6B deficit.

📌 Let’s count the money
— Brazil: $1.59B in tax revenues from operators in 2025.
— Spain: iGaming GGR in Q3 reached €405.4M (+16.5% YoY).
— USA: online gambling revenues grew to $26.8B (+15%).
— Indonesia: online gambling turnover dropped by 57%, and the number of players fell by 68%. Bans and blocks are hitting hard.

📌 Grey won’t cut it
— Belarus: starting February 2, 2026, payments to foreign iGaming operators will be blocked across the entire banking system.
— The share of pirate websites in bookmakers’ advertising budgets in 2025 decreased by 1.5×.

📌 Crimes of the week
— Macau: 606 people detained during raids against offshore gambling.
— Kazakhstan: an illegal TikTok casino with $180K turnover was shut down — arrests and asset seizures followed.
— Malaysia: 85 people arrested for working in iGaming call centers serving clients from Asia and Australia.

📌 Our favorite news — from Brazil!
— New taxation rules for players introduced:
net winnings above $5.2K will be taxed at 15%.
Players must declare income themselves, and operators must provide an annual ComprovaBet report.

⚡️ iGaming industry in numbers from market leaders

The third quarter turned out to be mixed. Almost all major players saw a drop in NDC (New Depositing Customers) and pressure on RevShare, yet some companies still managed to grow — thanks to GEO diversification and shifts in business models.

📌 A quick market snapshot:
— RevShare remains the foundation, but it suffers the most due to sports volatility and player behavior
— CPA, subnoscriptions, and SaaS deliver more stable cash flow
— North America has firmly become the main growth driver
— The classic “SEO + RevShare” model no longer works on its own

Reports from Better Collective, Gambling.com, Gentoo, Catena, Raketech, and others highlight a clear shift: affiliates are increasingly earning not as media businesses, but as platforms and infrastructure providers. NDC is declining, traffic costs are rising, and GEO dependence is becoming a risk factor.

👉 A detailed breakdown of figures, models, and GEOs based on Q3 2025 results is already in the blog.

⚡️ iGaming: key December news — how the market closed the year

December turned out to be revealing. In some places, markets are being officially opened, while in others betting is being shut down entirely without ceremony. We’ve gathered the key events of the month that set the tone for 2026.

📌 USA: growth and new rules
— Sports betting was legalized in Missouri — another step toward a fully legal betting map across the U.S.
— From December 1, Google Ads banned affiliates and CPA networks from advertising online horse betting. Licensed operators are allowed; intermediaries are not.
— Online gambling revenues in the U.S. reached $26.8 billion in 2025 (+15% YoY).

📌 Russia
— The president signed a law on self-exclusion from gambling. The new rules will become part of betting and iGaming regulation in the coming years.

📌 Curaçao
— The CGA regulator postponed issuing permanent licenses and allowed some operators to continue operating temporarily.

📌 Argentina
— Regulator ARCA updated the tax regime for online operators.
New registration deadlines, tax withholding rules, and disclosure requirements were introduced.
An added incentive: the option to retain a reduced tax rate when creating jobs within the country.

📌 Finland
— The move toward a dual licensing model from 2027 was confirmed:
B2C — for operators,
B2B — for software providers.
The Nordic market is preparing for a full opening.

📌 India
— The Supreme Court postponed the hearing on banning online real-money games until January.
Industry losses have already exceeded $840 million, with around 7,000 jobs cut.

📌 Africa: a tough year-end
— Ethiopia took the most radical path: the regulator revoked licenses from all betting operators following investigations into money laundering and national security threats.
Banks were ordered to block all betting-related transactions.

💘 Useless Facts Day: stories about casinos and bookmakers

January 4 is the official excuse to learn things that affect nothing — but are a pleasure to read. We’ve collected the most curious facts from the world of casinos and betting, from strange to slightly absurd.

📌 A few examples to get you hooked:
— There are no clocks on casino floors in Las Vegas — so you lose track of time.
— The biggest slot jackpot ($40 million) was once never claimed — the ticket simply “expired.”
— In football, odds can shift because a coach sneezed at a press conference.
— The very first bookmaker was opened by… a former funeral agent.
— Tennis, not football, is the highest-turnover sport for betting worldwide.

There’s also a darker side: robberies, bizarre bets, and stories where winning brought more trouble than joy. In short, a full set of New Year’s absurdity.

👉 The full list of 20 useless but very curious facts is here. Perfect weekend reading.
