Yohan Leon, the Chief Marketing Officer of Kensho media, told, “Some of the most appealing markets for gambling advertisements include Latin America and Spain.” He added, “The Spanish gambling regulator, DGOJ, has granted an increased number of approvals and licenses to gaming companies that have invested in Spain during the last year, irrespective of the economic instability due to the ongoing health crisis.”

“On the other hand, Latin America is a new and interesting opportunity to explore. A number of states in Latin America are in the process of regulating internet gambling and granting licenses to the gaming operators to operate in countries like Mexico, Argentina, and Colombia, which have a huge number of users of online gambling,” Yohan continues.

As a result of the reasons mentioned, Kensho Media has resolved to escalate the technological growth and marketing efforts for its portals tragaperrasweb.es and slotvegas.es. The company is following a similar approach for Spanish websites as it has implemented for its gambling fans in Italy, using sites like giochidislots.com.

The three leading traits of the English companies include providing unbiased information to the users about all national and international occurrences in the gambling world, reviews of the online slot machines by professionals using the top software houses, and analysis of the strengths and drawbacks of the leading gaming companies.

Kensho Media is also famous as it encourages responsible gaming and publishes unique studies on international gaming markets conducted by a team of professional data analysts.

“The studies conducted in Italy and their results have boosted us to continue the process of internalising our products,” Leon explains. “The total income from gambling increased by 7% in Spain in 2019, according to the annual report of the state online gambling market. We trust that the growth will continue to go up in the coming years, and the distribution of our products in Spain will help us expand our revenue and enlighten the online game players to approach the game differently.”

Yohan Leon stresses that the journey of making the games available to everyone is subject to the unclear and unequal ways in which the public interprets it. The numerous publishings of Kensho Media in Italy have contributed to improving the quality of information disseminated about online casinos. In this aspect, Kensho Media has remained a role model for its competitors and the motivation behind the news segment.

Leon concludes, “To inflict the same philosophy in Spain and Latin America still remains demanding for us. In the countries where information about the online gambling industry is still in the primitive stage, it is the moral duty of our company to provide a true and honest opinion about the game. The gambling industry requires more educational and less promotional method of communication to support the old and new players. It will help the general public and the political groups to grasp the true meaning of the game, a game that is being responsible for fighting against gambling.”

Groove says it has passed 20,000 titles in its aggregated casino content library, delivered to partners via “one API” and managed through its Groove Command back office.

The company said the catalogue includes slots, instant win games, table games, crash games, live dealer and arcade-style titles, plus “emerging verticals including sweepstakes and crypto-native content.” Groove added that the portfolio is now live and available to its partners worldwide.

Rachel Tourgeman, Head of Partnerships at Groove, said the company focuses on curation rather than chasing volume: “Twenty thousand games is a number. What matters is what sits behind it…” Says Tourgeman. “We don’t add studios for the sake of volume. We add them because they bring something distinctive: a mechanical innovation, a visual language, a player-engagement hook that our operators can’t get elsewhere. Our partners trust us to curate, not just collect. That trust is why we keep growing, and why the quality curve keeps rising alongside the quantity curve.”

Groove said recent integrations include KingMidas Games (150+ mobile-first titles), Urgent Games and Bryogames, which it described as offering “proprietary mathematics with real-time RTP customisation.” The company said the additions were assessed for technical compatibility and “commercial distinctiveness.”

Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, positioned the milestone as part of a broader platform pitch: “The aggregation space is crowded with platforms that offer ‘access’ and little else,” said Meltzer. “Twenty thousand games through a single API is not just scale. It is a statement. It says that Groove has become the default engine for operators who want to move fast, compete smart, and never compromise on content depth. But we are not stopping here. The next 20,000 will be even more selective, more integrated, and more aligned with where player behaviour is heading. Volume without curation is noise. We are building a signal.”
