We go all in!

Why Lisbon?

Portugal’s online gaming market is booming and Lisbon plays a central role.

In Q3 2024, the country recorded a €266.3 million revenue milestone from online gaming, a 23.7% year-on-year increase, with online casino games making up €175.1 million of that total. Lisbon continues to lead in player activity and operator registrations, positioning it as one of Europe’s most active hubs for regulated digital gaming.

This growth highlights the importance of Lisbon not just as a host city but as a key contributor to the industry itself. SBC Summit isn’t just visiting a scenic capital, it is convening in a market that’s already shaping the direction of online casino, betting and payment innovation.

Add to that Lisbon’s walkable layout, ideal September climate and growing fintech footprint, it’s a natural home for industry convergence.

Why the SBC Summit 2025 is Worth Your Time

This year's edition marks significant growth. The venue has expanded to 135,000 square metres. The event now includes dedicated verticals, new formats and more networking sessions. 

The goal is clear: to help people make meaningful connections and better decisions.

In 2024, the summit brought together attendees from 134 countries. The organisers expect even more in 2025. And Lisbon offers just the right setting. 

You will get direct access to key players in sports betting, casino, affiliate marketing, payments and compliance. There are eight stages with speakers from across the industry, plus workshops, product showcases and targeted roundtables. 

And the best part? Finera will be there.

What You Can Expect From Finera at SBC Summit

Finera is not a PSP or just a gateway. We are a payment orchestration platform that helps businesses route, optimise and manage transactions through one secure, scalable platform.

We support over 180 countries and enable multi-currency settlements. You can connect with acquirers, APMs, open banking providers and fraud tools, all from one place.

Our team will walk you through:

• How to use smart routing to improve approval rates
• How to reduce risk using real-time fraud tools
• How to streamline multi-currency processing without delays
• What to do when expanding to new regions or dealing with payout issues

We will also share updates on our latest product improvements. You will hear about what we are testing, what we are building and how our technology fits different business models.

Who Will You Meet at Our Booth?

You will meet our team leads from sales, partnerships, marketing and product. We will be available for one-on-one meetings and informal chats during all three days of the summit.

You can pre-book a meeting with our team or drop by during expo hours. 

What Makes SBC Important in 2025?

This year’s SBC Summit will focus on stronger content, new networking channels and vertical-specific challenges that matter.

Expect sessions on:

• Regulation across Europe and Latin America
• Player protection strategies
• Trends in payment technology for gaming
• Data and analytics tools for better retention
• Operational tactics for affiliate and platform growth

SBC Summit continues to attract a wide mix of stakeholders, including operators, regulators, tech providers and suppliers. Instead of one-way panels, many discussions are designed for interaction and direct exchange.

As Lisbon gets ready to welcome 30,000 delegates, what sets this event apart isn’t just scale, it’s access. It’s about who you’ll meet, what you’ll learn and how you can use it. 

And yes, Finera will be right in the middle of it!

Why it Matters for Your Business

If you are working in or around gaming, your payment stack should be a strategic tool, not a fixed cost. Delays, declines and inefficiencies impact revenue and user trust.

Finera helps platforms take control of this. You can connect to multiple providers, optimise transaction flows and manage all payments through one dashboard.

You will also benefit from real-time reporting and dedicated account support. This makes troubleshooting and optimisation faster. You can identify approval drops or region-specific issues early and fix them without relying on multiple third parties.

Make the Most of Your Time in Lisbon
