In 2021 Upgaming entered the market with it’s new, updated products, launched new website, spurring up the competition within the iGaming solutions market

2021 has been a year of challenges and new opportunities. Even though pandemic rise has halted business activities worldwide, online platforms have emerged as new solutions that enabled businesses to pick up the slack.

During the last year, Upgaming has managed to have successful collaborations and mutual agreements with more than one hundred partners, giving us the possibility to offer complete iGaming content to our customers, thus, increasing customer loyalty and satisfaction rates.

Upgaming reached new markets, acquired new operators, and visited international iGaming exhibitions. Looking back, we can confidently say that one of the most memorable events was iGB Live 2021, held in Amsterdam. The conference allowed Upgaming to reinforce and strengthen cooperation with existing partners and introduce the brand to the potential iGaming allies.

“We are more than a company, and we are more than a team. That’s what enables us to develop software that changes the whole market.” — Tornike Tvauri – CEO of Upgaming

2021 was a year of growth for Upgaming. We had countless achievements we are proud of, but one of the most important accomplishments that further accelerated our development was acquiring the MGA license. It spurred the advancement and growth of The company, provided unique opportunities to our clients, allowed them to develop their businesses and adapt their services to the specifications of the European market.

We have always been at the top of providing innovative iGaming solutions mainly because of our leading-edge iGaming platform and multi-profile, ultra-fast sportsbook Solution. This year, we have renewed and updated both of the products mentioned above.

Upgaming’s analytics, marketing, and business development team have conducted in-depth research to redesign their interface and improve the products’ qualities. The renewal of our sportsbook solution with new betting markets, multi-functional bonus systems, and fast results enhanced the experience of end-users. Now, our operators get over 90% coverage of the live events and have access to over 5000 markets.

On the other hand, the iGaming platform was upgraded with advanced analytics and reporting system. Furthermore, tracking user activities and offering them specialized bonuses has become simpler by using an updated iGaming platform and back office. As a result, the effectiveness and flexibility of the platform were enhanced for our clients.

2021 has been a year of growth for Upgaming. We obtained an MGA license, attended exhibitions, updated our products and platform, signed over 100 new partnership deals, and acquired 140 new employees, which enabled us to grow even faster. But, still, there is a lot more to come. We believe that 2022 will be an even more exciting year, enabling us to grow at lightning speed and stay at the top of the iGaming industry.

PropellerAds Launches Paid Social Traffic, a New Way to Reach Social Media Audiences

Leading advertising platform PropellerAds has launched Paid Social Traffic, a standalone format that gives advertisers access to paid social media audiences from inside their existing accounts. The format makes audiences active on Facebook, Instagram, X and other social feeds available within the PropellerAds platform, with supply aggregated through its partners.

For years, advertisers chasing social audiences had to juggle separate ad accounts, learn the rules of each platform, and produce platform-specific creatives just to reach users scrolling their feeds. Paid Social Traffic strips that away. Advertisers pick the format in the campaign builder, point it at a landing page and the traffic flows in.

“Advertisers keep telling us that reaching quality social audiences at scale is complex and resource-heavy. We built Paid Social Traffic to make that audience accessible through a single PropellerAds campaign: no separate accounts, no complicated setup,” said Julia Larionova, Head of Marketing at PropellerAds.

The format sits as a dedicated tab in the SSP campaign creation flow, alongside Onclick, Push, Interactive Ads and Telegram Ads. No third-party integrations, no extra ad accounts, no fresh batch of creatives — a landing page is enough to launch.

The audiences come in with high engagement intent, and the supply is aggregated from PropellerAds’ partners and made available only through the platform, so advertisers aren’t competing for it elsewhere. For verticals such as iGaming and Finance, the format offers clear requirements and a streamlined onboarding, with the company’s standard ad quality guidelines and policy applying throughout.

At launch, the format is live across a set of high-volume markets, more countries are on the way.

The launch also clarifies how social traffic now works on the platform. Organic Social Traffic — audiences from bloggers, channels, and publisher-owned communities — stays inside Onclick. Paid Social Traffic is the new, separate lane: a dedicated paid source aggregated through PropellerAds’ partners. Both coexist, with a clean line between them.

Advertisers planning longer commitments have another option. Through Custom Collaboration, partners can build tailored campaigns for clients with dedicated promo budgets and serious scale ambitions — a route aimed at the platform’s larger advertisers.

To start, advertisers select Paid Social Traffic in their next campaign and add a landing page. The platform handles delivery from there.

Finland Sets Casino Gambling Risk Limits at 2% of Income, 4 Days, 2 Game Types

Published

finland-sets-casino-gambling-risk-limits-at-2%-of-income,-4-days,-2-game-types

 

Finland’s National Institute for Health and Welfare (THL) has launched a new set of gambling risk limits built around a single rule: no more than 2% of monthly net income, 4 gambling days per month and 2 recurring game types. Bonusetu.com examines the new framework and why its real-world success depends on the bank ID identification already standard in the country’s registration-free casinos.

The “2-4-2” Rule and the Player’s Credit Line

THL packaged the new limits as a player’s credit line (pelaajan luottorivi), a memorable “2-4-2” mnemonic released alongside a self-assessment gambling test (rahapelitesti) that lets a player gauge their own relationship with gambling. The thresholds are deliberately simple: keep monthly spend under 2% of net income, gamble on no more than 4 days a month, and stick to no more than 2 recurring game types. The guidance lands against a backdrop where 70% of Finns reported gambling in the past 12 months.

The numbers are not arbitrary. The framework adapts Canada’s Lower-Risk Gambling Guidelines, reworked for Finnish conditions between 2022 and 2024. Where Canada anchors its limit to 1% of gross household income, THL chose 2% of net personal income to better match how Finnish households actually think about money.

According to the THL’s assessment, the introduction of the licensing system will shift the focus of the gambling system from preventing and reducing harms to emphasising gambling revenue; for this reason, they felt it was best to launch the 2-4-2 rule right now.

“A risk limit only works if the casino knows exactly who is sitting behind the screen. THL hands players the 2-4-2 rule, but the rule has no teeth unless the operator can verify identity, age, and play history in real time. Bank ID does that at the door. Registration-free does not mean anonymous, it means the player is identified before the first euro is staked, not after,” said Tommi Korhonen, acting CEO of Bonusetu.com.

Why a Limit Needs to Know the Player

A spending cap is only as strong as a casino’s ability to recognise who is actually playing. That recognition runs on strong identification (vahva tunnistautuminen) through bank credentials, the technology that lets a player log in with Nordea, OP or S-Pankki details instead of filling out a signup form. The “no registration” label describes the missing form, not a missing identity check.

Verified age: Bank ID confirms a player is over 18 before the first spin, closing a gap that form-based signups leave open to minors.

Recognised identity: One verified identity per player turns play-history limits like 2-4-2 into something a system can enforce, not just a slogan a player is asked to remember.

Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Helsinki, Bonusetu.com is a leading Finnish comparison platform for online casinos.

Play’n GO Releases its Latest Slot Game “Shark Feast”

Published

Play’n GO unveils Shark Feast, a neon-soaked underwater release starring Jawsome Joe, a theatrical shark who crashes the Neon Jellyfish Festival in a string of absurd disguises.

Shark Feast drops players into a world of self-aware humour, bright aquatic visuals and festival mayhem, where Jawsome Joe turns a seabed celebration into his own outrageous spectacle. Built around a 6-reel scatter pays setup with cascading action, the game leans into comic timing and visual personality rather than menace, presenting an underwater setting filled with oddball sea creatures, colourful symbols and a mischievous central character with a taste for disruption.

The game’s strongest appeal lies in how confidently it commits to its theme. Shark Feast is not simply set beneath the waves – it uses the Neon Jellyfish Festival as the backdrop for a playful clash between party atmosphere and cartoon chaos. Jawsome Joe’s disguises and the escalating festival mood give the release a distinct identity, while the different Free Spins modes – Jelly Fish Festival, Deep Sea Fiesta and Aqua Beat Carnival – reinforce the sense of a celebration that keeps building in scale and absurdity.

That makes Shark Feast a natural fit for players who enjoy Play’n GO titles with bold visual character and a strong comic thread running through the experience. Its underwater world feels light, colourful and intentionally exaggerated, combining festival energy with a shark protagonist who is more showman than predator. The result is a release that balances mischief and spectacle in a way that feels unmistakably Play’n GO.

Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Shark Feast gave us the chance to create something with a lot of personality – bright, strange and full of comic energy. Jawsome Joe brings a theatrical edge to the underwater setting, and that contrast helped shape a game world that feels lively from the very first moment.”

With Shark Feast, Play’n GO delivers an underwater release with humour, colour and a central character who knows exactly how to steal the show.
