SPARK 2026

SPARK — short for Software, Payments, Affiliates, Revenue Kickoff — is a two-day gathering of online and offline gaming leaders at Hotel Marinela Sofia on 19–20 October. It is organised by Eventus International, the team behind the SPiCE series.

Operators, affiliates, regulatory experts, payment specialists and tech vendors meet over keynotes, roundtables and interactive discussions. SPARK 2026 focuses on practical growth: balancing multi-jurisdictional compliance with user experience, player retention, emerging licensing pathways, and using AI for real-time customer intelligence and fraud prevention.

Who should attend

Payment providers and PSPs serving iGaming operators, affiliate managers and networks, and compliance or licensing advisers working in Bulgarian and wider European gaming markets. The sector list explicitly covers payments and fintech, affiliate marketing, platform technology and regulatory solutions, so supplier-side business development teams are expected.

Tickets and access

Standard passes cost €595 and are valid on 20 October only. Premium (€995) and Supplier (€1,495) passes cover both days.
