CIRSA has taken a new step in its sustainability strategy with the launch of a circular recycling initiative that gives a second life to the PVC playing cards used in its casinos in Spain and Morocco. The damaged playing cards now become the raw material for manufacturing loyalty cards for its most frequent users: the Club Winner members.
This innovative measure within the sector has enabled the Company to recycle more than one ton of playing cards in the last three years, preventing this plastic material from ending up in landfills and promoting its reuse in new products within its own business ecosystem.
Partnerships for a 100% circular cycle
To materialize this project, the Group has established a collaboration model that guarantees maximum traceability. The process begins with playing cards manufactured by Fournier, the exclusive supplier for CIRSA’s casinos in Spain and Morocco. Once their useful life is over, the Company manages their certified destruction, ensuring the security of the material. Subsequently, the remains are delivered to Spica, a firm specializing in recycling, which incorporates them into its industrial process to create new recycled PVC sheets. Finally, Aplicard uses this material to manufacture the Club Winner cards.
In this way, the circle is closed: waste from a gaming activity returns to the customer converted into a valuable tool. Club Winner, designed to recognize customer trust with preferential attention and exclusive activities, now allows members to also participate in the corporate commitment to the environment.
A transversal sustainability strategy
This action is not an isolated event but responds to CIRSA’s conviction that ESG (Environmental, Social & Governance) values are fundamental pillars for generating sustainable value. As outlined in its Sustainability Report, the Company focuses its efforts on four key areas: promoting responsible gaming, reducing carbon footprint, fostering relationships with local communities, and corporate governance.
To ensure the correct execution of this roadmap, CIRSA has a solid governance structure. It relies on an ESG committee under the supervision of the Executive Chairman, Joaquim Agut, and has specifically created the Sustainability, Technology, and Innovation Commission within the Advisory Board, ensuring that initiatives such as the recycling of playing cards are just the beginning of a real positive impact on its environment.
Terrassa, November 17, 2025 – CIRSA has announced today that it has acquired, through its subsidiary CIRSA International Business Corporation, a 50% stake in the Grand Casino de La Mamounia.
The Grand Casino de La Mamounia is located on the grounds of Hotel La Mamounia, a historic luxury hotel in the city of Marrakech which consistently ranks among the top deluxe hotels in the world. The casino is an international reference in the sector in terms of luxury and exclusivity, which will be preserved and further enhanced in the future.
This transaction aligns with CIRSA’s strategic focus on selective growth in core geographies and will reaffirm its long-term commitment to the country. Current management team of the casino will stay in place.
The transaction multiple is consistent with previous transactions executed by CIRSA. The transaction will be financed with available cash. Based on current estimates, its impact on CIRSA Group’s pro forma leverage is not expected to be significant.
Sportiumbet is taking a historic step in its international expansion by becoming the Official Sportsbook of Club Tigres, one of the most iconic teams in Mexican football. This alliance marks a before-and-after moment for both the brand and the club, as it is the first time in Tigres’ history that they have signed a sponsorship agreement with a betting company.
The agreement, which will run for five seasons, brings Sportiumbet together with both the men’s and women’s teams, cementing a relationship built on passion, sporting excellence, and responsible entertainment. As part of the sponsorship, the Sportiumbet logo will appear on the official match kit and in strategic areas of the Estadio Universitario, home of the Incomparables.
For Sportiumbet, this is also a special debut: its first entry into Liga MX, a key market for the brand’s growth in Latin America. This agreement goes much further: it is a commitment to the values of the game, to the spectacle, and to an incomparable fan base.
July 9, 2025 will be remembered as a historic day for CIRSA. At 12:00, in a moving ceremony held at the Barcelona Stock Exchange, our Executive Chairman, Joaquim Agut, performed the symbolic ringing of the bell to officially usher in a new chapter for our Group.

Numerous national and international media outlets covered the event, reflecting the significance of the moment for both the company and the industry.
