Kindness & Appreciation Day at Playbook Engineering 💛 Instead of celebrating Valentine’s Day in the traditional way, we decided to focus on appreciation. We invited our employees to send anonymous (or signed) messages of thanks to their colleagues 💌 Because in the middle of deadlines and projects, we don’t always take the time to say “I appreciate what you do”. And sometimes, one short message can genuinely make someone’s day 🫶

🍩 Fat Thursday at Playbook Engineering! Today our Polish team is celebrating one of the sweetest traditions in Poland - Fat Thursday. It was a great opportunity to come together, share some doughnuts, and take a well-deserved coffee break. Because sometimes productivity pairs best with powdered sugar 😉 #FatThursday #CompanyCulture #TeamMoments #PlaybookEngineering

🎉 Celebrating 8 Years at Playbook – Sam Gray This week marks eight years since Sam joined Playbook, and it’s a milestone well worth recognising. Over that time, Sam has become one of the most relied-upon people in the business — not just within Playbook, but across the wider group. His depth of expertise in the compliance space, combined with an unflappable, thoughtful approach, has been instrumental in helping us navigate an increasingly complex and demanding regulatory environment. What really sets Sam apart is the quality he brings to everything he does. He operates with consistency, integrity and clarity, and his judgement is trusted at the most critical moments. Whether supporting strategic decisions, guiding teams through change, or quietly ensuring that standards are upheld, his impact is felt every day. 🚀 Eight years in, Sam remains a cornerstone of the organisation, and Playbook is a stronger, more credible business because of his contribution. We’re incredibly grateful for his commitment, professionalism and the standard he continues to set. Thank you, Sam — and congratulations on eight years. 💫

🎉 Celebrating 3 years of Wojciech Józefek at Playbook Engineering! This month marks three years since Wojciech Józefek joined Playbook Engineering! As a Senior Software Engineer, Wojciech has been a steady and reliable part of our team, contributing to projects and supporting our work along the way. Over the past three years, he has been part of Playbook’s growth and day-to-day delivery, helping move things forward in a consistent and professional way. We truly appreciate the commitment and effort he brings, and we’re glad to have him on board as part of the Playbook journey. Wojciech, thank you for being with us for the past three years and we look forward to what’s still ahead! 🚀

The market is getting tougher - but strong platforms don’t disappear in tough markets, they step forward 🏙️ Playbook is ready for new business, switchers and can even support closing businesses. Contact us! 📩 Anyone operating in the UK gambling space knows it. Rising compliance costs, tighter regulation, higher taxes, and increasing technical expectations mean that every year, platforms and operators quietly exit the market. We’ve all seen well-known names withdraw, white-labels surrender licences, and suppliers decide the UK is no longer for them. That isn’t a surprise. It’s the natural outcome of a market that now demands scale, resilience, and long-term commitment. At Playbook Engineering, we’re stronger than ever. We’ve invested heavily in: 🔹 Platform stability and performance 🔹 UK-first compliance and governance 🔹 Sustainable commercial models 🔹 Long-term operator partnerships And the result is simple: we’re very much open for business. If you’re: ✅ A new operator looking to enter the market properly ✅ An existing operator frustrated with your current platform ✅ A business that wants a partner who understands the realities of the UK, not just the theory We’d love to talk. And if you’re considering closing your business we understand that too. Exiting doesn’t have to mean walking away empty-handed. Through Playbook, we can: 🔹 Repatriate your customer base to one of our trusted operating partners 🔹 Ensure customers are treated fairly and compliantly 🔹 Provide an ongoing revenue-share so you retain a continued income stream It’s a responsible, commercial exit that works for everyone involved. If you're interested in any of these options and would like to talk, my inbox is open! - Christopher Knight
