Playson Lines Up Support for Ukraine with Charity Tournament
By Shane Addinall Aug 03, 2022 IndustryWhile most hope for gifts in celebration of a feat like 10 years of successful business, and others throw lavish parties, Playson takes the high road and devotes funds to a few good causes.With the celebration of their first decade of successful business, Playson gives back to Ukrainian charities and spreads the love with worthy causes. The leading iGaming supplier launches its charity tournament on 10 August to commemorate 10 years of top-class online casino games.
Titled, the Big Play is On, the tournament involves players from Playson-powered platforms around the globe and contributes to six Ukraine-based community projects. Winners in the 10-hour tournament choose which charity receives donations.
Playson chose Prytula Foundation, Come Back Alive, Tabletochki, Be Kind, Dobro, and Enjoying Life as worthy recipients of the €10,000 donation.
Celebrating a Decade of iGaming History
Playson established its position in the igaming market in 2012 and throughout the past decade, the team grew in strength and diversity. The company secured a top-tier reputation within the global remote gambling industry, becoming one of the most prominent software developers in today’s market.
Since its inception ten years ago, Playson positioned itself as a recognisable brand and now supports trusted operators across more than 20 regulated jurisdictions. Over 1,500 operators present proprietary Playson titles to three million unique players every month, a feat supported by the 33 million players following Playson’s immersive product offering.
Playson’s CEO Alex Ivshin said:
“It’s been a wonderful ten years, the journey from our launch to the present day has been filled with moments of huge success and joy. We’re thrilled to have cemented ourselves as a supplier that offers quality, high-performing titles, which consistently produce results for our partners.”
Ivshin continued by stating his excitement for the next phase of the company’s success as they take Playson to the next level.
Ten Winners and Ten Donations
The company built a diverse employee network comprising talent from Malta, the UK, Ukraine, Slovakia, Romania, Hungary, Taiwan, and Greece. Considering the current state of affairs and the significant number of Ukrainians in the Playson team, the provider chose the war-stricken area as their point of focus.
The Big Play is On charity tournament kicks off on 10 August at noon and runs until 10 pm (CET) for a 10-hour marathon. Once the tournament ends, the 10 players with the highest scores have the honour of picking which charity receives their share of the donations. The charity includes 10 cheques for €1,000 each. Participants don’t just walk away with a full heart, the top 10 also get $100 Amazon gift cards. Ivshin noted:
“As a company with many employees based in Ukraine, we’re always thinking about them and won’t stop exploring ways in which we can help communities during this current situation.”
The chosen charities focus on a spectrum of community work which includes support for cancer-ridden children, military aid, hospital support in areas severely affected by the war, and support for the elderly.
