The arrangement covers iHub placement, company news coverage and press release distribution. Editorial assessment of the operator is handled separately and independently.
What has been agreed
Gamblers Connect has entered a media collaboration with Roobet, the crypto first online casino and sportsbook operated by Raw Entertainment B.V. under a Curacao Gaming Authority licence. The arrangement is a business to business one.
It covers three things. Roobet receives a company profile within iHub, the Gamblers Connect directory of operators, suppliers and service providers. Company announcements from Roobet are covered in the B2B news section on their news merit. Press releases are distributed across the platform and its social channels, each one labelled as such.
The collaboration does not extend to the assessment of the operator itself. That work is separate, and the section below sets out the boundary in full.
What the arrangement does and does not cover
Gamblers Connect publishes the scope of every commercial arrangement rather than describing it in general terms. The division below is the same one applied to every operator on the platform.
| INCLUDED IN THE COLLABORATION | NOT INCLUDED, AND NOT PURCHASABLE |
| ✓ iHub company profile listing | ✗ The editorial verdict in the operator review |
| ✓ B2B news coverage of company announcements | ✗ The Responsible Gambling Index score |
| ✓ Press release distribution across the platform | ✗ Proof of Play verification outcomes |
| ✓ Social media distribution of collaboration content | ✗ Licence authentication results |
| ✓ Individual operator page carrying verified company data | ✗ Suppression or amendment of a negative finding |
| ✓ Licence country category listing | ✗ Any player facing promotion, offer or referral |
The right hand column is the part that matters. A commercial relationship with Gamblers Connect buys placement and distribution. It does not buy a verdict, a score or a silence.
About the operator
Roobet launched in 2019 and operates a crypto first online casino and integrated sportsbook. The operating entity is Raw Entertainment B.V., registered in Curacao under company number 157205, holding Curacao Gaming Authority licence OGL/2024/687/0427, granted on 31 July 2024. Gamblers Connect has confirmed the licence against the CGA certificate and the authority’s public register, where it is listed as active with an indefinite term.
The platform carried 7,848 games as of 28 May 2026 by the operator’s own published count, spanning slots, live dealer tables, RNG table games and a set of in house originals, alongside a sportsbook sharing the same account and wallet. Roobet holds sponsorship partnerships including Chelsea FC and the esports organisation 100 Thieves.
Full company data, including the ownership chain, market availability, payment structure and player protection provision, is published on the Roobet operator page together with the independent assessment.
The assessment that follows
Two pieces of independent work sit behind every operator page and neither is part of this collaboration.
The first is Proof of Play, the Gamblers Connect hands on verification method built on real money testing. It will be carried out on the Roobet listing, and the operator page will show it as pending until the test is complete.
The second is the Responsible Gambling Index, a twelve criterion framework covering self exclusion, deposit and loss limits, reality checks, cooling off periods and related protections, scored on a five tier scale from Poor to Exceptional. The score is determined by the newsroom alone.
Why the platform publishes this at all
A media collaboration is a commercial fact about the publisher, and readers are entitled to know it before they read anything else on the operator. Announcing the arrangement, publishing its exact scope and linking the policies that govern it is how Gamblers Connect keeps the commercial and editorial sides of the platform visibly separate.
The alternative, which is common across the sector, is to carry the placement without disclosing the relationship. That approach leaves the reader to work out on their own whether coverage was paid for. Gamblers Connect does not publish that way.
A note on what this article is not
This is an announcement of a business arrangement between two companies. It is not a review, not a recommendation, and not an endorsement of Roobet as a place to gamble. Gamblers Connect does not publish for players and does not refer them.
Readers looking for an assessment of the operator should read the operator page and the Responsible Gambling Index score rather than drawing any conclusion from the existence of this collaboration.
