Casino, from the studio side.
CasinoBeats Summit is the SBC summit on online casino, the games, the studios that build them and the people who market them. The 2024 edition expected 4,500 delegates, and the keynote came from John Romero, the game designer behind Doom and Quake.

SEO, affiliates and nineteen tables.
The programme ran from game design to marketing and affiliation, with SEO and Google updates as a thread through it. On the first day, nineteen roundtables went market by market, the UK, Italy, Malta, Spain and Brazil among them. The Game Developer Awards closed the week.
Social casino plays by other rules.
A social casino where nobody can win anything of monetary value is a different file. Meta asks for no authorization, as long as you target 18+ and stay out of the 19 markets Meta closes to gambling. On Google it needs an account of its own, separate from real money.
- Metano authorization, 18+
- Googlean account of its own
