What is the key to success in Asian iGaming? Is it products, business models, partnerships, technology systems or distribution channels? Opinions are divided and will be analysed during this debate, where everyone is encouraged to share their opinion.

You will first hear 10 minute opinion statements by ‘Advocates’ of the following successful gaming products and strategies:

• Mahjong and Asian-specific products with immediate domestic appeal - presented by Allen Yan, Asian Gaming Ventures

Following quick-fire 10 minute presentations, you will have an opportunity to discuss their pros and cons and learn best practices for implementing each in much more intimate, off-the-record discussions with your peers, in small groups seated at round tables. Our VIP ‘Advocates’ offering their expertise at the beginning will be available to further facilitate the discussions, answer your questions and share conclusions at the end of the session.

Those still eager to expand on their knowledge and take advantage of all industry experts gathered at AiG are invited to retreat to meeting suites reserved for even more networking and partnership matching. Each meeting room will cover a specific topic, including those just discussed in the AiG Mega Debate.This is your chance to ask private questions and engage with people as eager to learn about the topic as you are.

Join us in Manila’s most exclusive nightclub, Members Only, recommended by the local iGaming professionals, from 10 pm onwards on 10 March for a night of extravaganza and fun.

Secure a direct route to your players by developing safe and comprehensive online payment options that match the payment culture of your target country

• Avoid legal risks
• Establish secure, user friendly and trusted systems
• Offer a wide range of options to your players
  
  
  Due to industry demand and sensitivity of the topic we are opening this panel to a selected number of payment solution providers, invited to hold a 5 minute presentation  which will include an overview of a solution and/or an example of how a payment problem, specific to Asia, has been solved.
  
  The panel will then be open to general discussion between the panellists and the audience: panellists will be available to join your table and answer your specific questions. As many critical payment challenges require more intimate environment and are not suitable for an open forum, you will have a chance to talk to the panel experts directly and in an off-the-record format.  

Case studies could tackle one of the problems below:

- payment cards (credit, debit, prepaid, stored-value etc.)
- exotic currencies
- localised solutions
- fraud
- anti-money laundering
- restrictions applied to on gaming accounts
- credit risk
- mobile payments
- chargebacks

Solution providers interested in presenting a case study during this innovative panel should contact Ewa Bakun, Event Director, at ewa.bakun@clariongaming.com or on +44 (0)207 370 8567.
