New partnership ahoy! Swintt titles now live at Jackpotpiraten.de
Having already made waves in the iGaming industry, Swintt’s full suite of slots is sailing into new waters by launching on Germany’s popular pirate-themed platform
Having only just plundered the title of Mobile Gaming Software Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards, Swintt, has already raised anchor and set sail on an all-new partnership project as its full fleet of slots prepare to dock at Jackpotpiraten.de.
Owned and operated by the same team that brought customers bingbong.de, Jackpotpiraten.de is a popular pirate-themed online casino platform that’s fully licensed to operate in Germany and offers a swashbuckling selection of slots to its loyal players.
Now that the operator has teamed up with Swintt, its already impressive game line-up has gotten even stronger thanks to the presence of both SwinttPremium as well as a few recent smash hits from the innovative new Elysium Studios – Driven by Swintt slot catalogue.
With the last product range on that list coming as a result of the high-profile acquisition of Elysium Studios by Swintt earlier this year, customers at Jackpotpiraten.de can look forward to taking on state-of-the-art titles such as Elysium VIP and Law of Gilgamesh – both of which feature breathtaking visuals and engaging set of bonus rounds that’ll really blow them away.
For those with more traditional tastes, meanwhile, the SwinttPremium range features a number of titles that have already proved incredibly popular in Germany. These include fan favourite games like Seven Seven Pots and Pearls and Extra Win X, both of which are known for combining classic casino sounds and visuals with easy-to-access features that also pack a real prize punch.
With all that and more now available at Jackpotpiraten.de, the collaboration looks set to be beneficial for both parties, with Swintt now able to continue strengthening its presence in the German market while the platform cements its reputation as a go-to destination for the best new casino content.
Lars Kollind, Head of Business Development at Swintt, said: “Swintt – and in particular, the studio’s SwinttPremium catalogue of games – is already very popular in Germany, so we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to connect with new audiences via Jackpotpiraten.de. We’re sure the collaboration will be a big success and we can’t wait to see how our slots perform with players.”
Florian Werner, Managing Director at Jackpotpiraten.de, said: “At Jackpotpiraten.de, we’ve worked hard to compile a great selection of games from some of the most dynamic software providers in the industry. Being able to now add an award-winning studio like Swintt to our roster will only strengthen this line-up further and we’re sure our players will love seeing what they have to offer.”

Great Canadian Entertainment and a consortium group of certain communities from the Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe, through an entity affiliated with Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe Management Ltd. (the “Ts’elxwéyeqw Group”), announced that on November 7th, 2025, they entered into a definitive agreement for the purchase by the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group from Great Canadian Entertainment of Elements Casino Chilliwack, one of the premier gaming and entertainment destinations in the Fraser Valley region of British Columbia.
The Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe constitute seven First Nation communities and are the First People of the Chilliwack River watershed. The transaction represents a transformational milestone for the communities within the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group.
Elements Casino Chilliwack serves guests across the Fraser Valley and is Chilliwack’s top destination for gaming and entertainment, featuring over 300 slots, live and electronic table games, bingo, dining, live entertainment and more.
The closing of the transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and the receipt of regulatory and other approvals. Under the terms of the definitive agreement, Great Canadian Entertainment will continue to provide transitional services and support to the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group for a period following closing.
“This purchase marks an exciting milestone for our Nations and for the entire territory. By coming together in partnership, we are not only investing in a strong business opportunity, but also in the future of our people. The revenues generated through this acquisition will help strengthen our communities, create new opportunities, and ensure our Nations continue to play a leading role in the local economy. Additionally, we believe that local community-based ownership of Elements Casino Chilliwack will further strengthen the broader Fraser Valley community and economy. It’s a proud moment that reflects how Indigenous leadership and collaboration can build a stronger, more inclusive future for everyone,” said Chief David Jimmie, Chief of Squiala First Nation and President of Ts’elxwéyeqw Tribe Management Ltd.
“We are very excited to have entered into this agreement with the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group. We have had the privilege of being part of the Chilliwack community since we opened Elements Casino Chilliwack in 2012, and we believe that under the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group’s stewardship, the business will begin an exciting new chapter. For the team members and guests of Elements Casino Chilliwack, and the local community, we can think of no better owner for the business. We look forward to the closing and then working with the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group team during the transition period,” said Matt Anfinson, CEO of Great Canadian Entertainment.
McCarthy Tétrault LLP is acting as legal advisor and KPMG Corporate Finance Inc. is acting as financial advisor to the Ts’elxwéyeqw Group. McMillan LLP is acting as legal advisor to Great Canadian Entertainment.
