The Online Gaming Bill 2025 has wiped out India's real-money gaming industry overnight. But the ripple effects extend far beyond fantasy cricket and poker tables.For years, payment aggregators like Razorpay, PhonePe, Cashfree, and PayU quietly powered the industry's explosive growth. They processed deposits, payouts, and billions of rupees in prize transfers every month. Real-money gaming wasn't just another client vertical. It was their golden goose that delivered high margins in a hyper-competitive market.Now, with the ban in place, these fintechs face a sudden revenue void. For some, gaming accounted for as much as 30% of net revenues. The loss comes just as many are prepping for IPOs, making the timing even more brutal.So, what does the gaming ban really mean for India's payments industry?Tune in.Daybreak is produced from the newsroom of The Ken, India's first subscriber-only business news platform.

India’s Online Gaming law, 2025 has jolted the country’s fast-growing gaming industry. The law bans real-money games while promoting e-sports and casual play, a shift that could transform a sector valued at over ₹30,000 crore. Host Anirban Chowdhury speaks with Vidushpat Singhania, managing partner at Krida legal and Rohit Agarwal, Founder - AlphaZegus Marketing to unpack the battles now unfolding, questions of state versus central authority, the unresolved debate of skill versus chance, and whether prohibition will truly safeguard users or simply drive betting underground.

In today's episode of iGaming Daily, Jessica Welman, Managing Editor at SBC Media is joined by Chelsie Cooper, CEO of Approvely, for an eye-opening deep dive into the realities of the US online gaming ecosystem. Sponsored by Optimove, this episode challenges long-held assumptions about regulated verses unregulated verticals and the evolving role of digital currencies in gaming transactions. Chelsie breaks down how Approvely uses stablecoins, not as a player-facing crypto requirement, but as a backend utility to enable ultra-fast card transaction settlements. The conversation also explores self-regulation in unregulated verticals like sweeps and DFS, where operators are quietly maintaining rigorous KYC/KYB protocols, geo-fencing, and real-time compliance oversight, dispelling the outdated "Wild West" narrative.Finally, the two expose the often-overlooked cost burden of payment processing for online gaming operators, ranging from 7% to 14%. Chelsie shares how fraud models and tools to predict and prevent chargebacks before they occur, offering guaranteed settlements and boosting liquidity.

This week on iGaming Daily, hosts Ted Orme-Claye and Ted Menmuir explore a game-changing merger and acquisition that's making waves across the gaming industry. Greek multinational tech firm Intralot has acquired Bally's Interactive International, the iCasino division of Bally's Corporation. The hosts break down the strategic significance of this move, which marks a major shift for Introlot as it expands from its traditional B2B lottery systems into the competitive B2C iGaming and iCasino space. The episode takes a deep dive into Introlot's ambitious plans for growth, particularly in the US market. With this acquisition, Introlot is positioning itself to deliver cutting-edge iGaming and iCasino solutions to US state lotteries, enhancing their digital competitiveness amid increasing pressure from new operators. The conversation also covers how Gamesys content aligns more naturally with Introlot's digital-first approach compared to Bally's legacy focus on brick-and-mortar operations. This strategic alignment could signal a turning point in how legacy casino companies and tech-driven firms approach digital gaming innovation.Finally, Ted and Ted discuss Bally's motivations for the divestiture, citing mounting debt and recent financial losses as driving forces behind the move. They also look ahead to the future of gaming industry M&A, predicting sustained momentum into 2025 fueled by market saturation, regulatory shifts, and the ongoing digital transformation of the sector.

In this episode of iGaming Daily, SBC's Editor-at-Large, Ted Menmuir and iGaming Expert's Business Journalist, Christian Lee, recap key insights from the recent Gaming in Spain conference in Madrid. A highlight was the DGOJ's much-anticipated regulatory update, covering proposed changes to deposit limits, advertising rules, and a new mandatory risky behaviour algorithm for identifying problem gamblers.The DGOJ is pushing for a cross-platform approach to deposit limits and revisiting previously repealed advertising restrictions, though progress is slow — partly due to a shift in oversight from the Ministry of Justice to the Ministry of Consumer Affairs. Frustration among operators is mounting, with delays and limited communication creating uncertainty.Despite regulatory hurdles, Spain's online gambling market—currently just 24% of total gambling—is seen as a major growth area, especially for diversified sports betting. The conference also emphasised the need to balance consumer protection with player experience to avoid pushing users to unregulated markets.Host: Ted MenmuirGuest: Christian LeeProducer: Anaya McDonaldEditor: James RossiGaming Daily is also now on TikTok.

Is Australia's social media ban the right way to go? Social psychologist Jonathan Haidt says it is time to reinstate the play-based childhood to bring our kids back from life online and into the real world, away from their increasing obsession with devices. It's a fact of modern life that children who are given smart phones are able to access pornography, real images of violence and harmful comparisons with their friends and also influencers around the world.Social psychologist, Jonathan Haidt argues that as the social norms have changed, and younger and younger children have been allowed access to their own devices, their participation in the real world has suffered.Jonathan's theory is that in order to combat the addicting influence of technology on our kids' lives, families and society must encourage and allow children to enjoy free play, independence and responsibility in the real world.He says, rather than despairing at the current state of childhood, we have the power to give children fun, excitement and a passport to the real world.This episode of Conversations touches on Australia's social media ban, screen addiction, smart phones, online gaming, social media, mental health, teens, childhood, free play, children's independence, risk, outdoor play, child development, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, gaming, and Jonathan Haidt.
