DeGaming Appoints Édi Varela As Commercial Director

DeGaming has appointed Édi Varela as Commercial Director as the Web3-focused iGaming platform provider looks to accelerate its commercial growth following its recent rebrand.

Varela brings more than 10 years of experience across iGaming, payments and commercial account management, having previously held senior roles at Kaizen Gaming, Gamingtec and Sportingtech.

He joins DeGaming from OpenTag, where he most recently served as Head of Sales.

In his new role, Varela will focus on developing commercial partnerships and expanding the adoption of DeGaming’s technology among Web3 operators and traditional Web2 brands exploring Web3-based infrastructure.

DeGaming Targets Further Market Expansion

Varela’s appointment follows DeGaming’s recent rebrand and the introduction of its ‘Truth Beats Trust’ positioning.

Central to the company’s proposition is its proprietary Glass Vault technology, which DeGaming said provides real-time proof of funds and increased visibility across its platform.

The provider also offers Bankroll-as-a-Service, designed to provide operators with scalable liquidity and payout backing that remains visible on-chain.

DeGaming is positioning the two products as complementary technologies, with Glass Vault focused on platform transparency and Bankroll-as-a-Service addressing operator capital and liquidity requirements.

Ulle Skottling, CEO at DeGaming, said:

“Édi joins us at an important turning point in DeGaming’s development. We have built the technology and established our clear position in the market. The next step is to accelerate adoption and bring our product to more operators.

“Édi’s experience across many areas of the industry gives him a uniquely broad perspective on what our customers need. He understands the commercial realities but also sees where the market is heading. He will play a crucial role in taking our ‘Truth Beats Trust’ philosophy from a brand statement into our commercial relationships.”

Varela To Lead Commercial Partnerships

Varela will work with DeGaming’s commercial team to establish new client relationships and support operators following integration.

Édi Varela, Commercial Director at DeGaming, said:

“DeGaming is addressing a problem I have seen throughout my career in iGaming. There is a significant gap between what the industry asks people to trust and what they can actually see with their own eyes.

“I’m excited to lead a team of tenured professionals as we partner with new clients and ensure the post-sales journey fosters strong commercial results for them.”
