Gaming Corps partners with market leader pioneer Betsson Group
Swedish game developer Gaming Corps has announced a partnership agreement with market-leading iGaming pioneer Betsson Group. The agreement incorporates development of
an exclusive casino game, bespoke adaptation of the upcoming iJect series of Multiplier Games based on crypto crash game functionality for several Betsson Group brands, as well as distribution of Gaming Corps’ complete iGaming portfolio via aggregator iSoftbet.
Publicly listed Swedish game developer Gaming Corps has entered into a comprehensive partnership agreement with iGaming pioneer Betsson Group. The agreement is chiefly comprised of three parts, the first of which concerns distribution of Gaming Corps’ complete iGaming portfolio to Betsson Group’s fully and partially owned online casinos under brands such as Betsafe, Europebet and NordicBet. The second part concerns the bespoke adaption of upcoming Multiplier Games as well as upcoming Blackjack games for several of the Betsson Group brands. The Gaming Corps Multiplier Games are fast casino games inspired by crypto currency crash games, on route to being launched under the new product brand iJect. The third part concerns bespoke development of a new type of game which will be offered exclusively via Betsson Group online casinos.
“Gaming Corps is demonstrating real innovation with their iGaming portfolio. The upcoming Table Games and iJect series of Multiplier Games resonates with how Betsson Group sees the industry going forward, and together I believe we can position ourselves at the forefront of this development. In addition, we are impressed with the speed at which Gaming Corps has been able to develop new products which has led to partnering on creating an exciting new type of game. It will be interesting to follow how this cooperation unfolds and I am confident that we will build market value for both parties.” says Paul Malt, Head of Games, Betsson Group.
“This agreement constitutes a significant milestone in Gaming Corps’ development and is evidence that the products we have chosen to invest in are leading the Company on the right path. We are incredibly pleased to be entering into a partnership with one of Europe’s leading iGaming companies, a player responsible for driving the industry forward over the course of many years, having left a significant imprint on it, not least here in Sweden. Now we are given the opportunity to not only offer our games to all of Betsson Group’s many players around the world but also, in collaboration with a tremendously industry-savvy team, develop the next generation of casino games. That is a challenge I know our talented team members will meet. I would like to thank Betsson Group for good cooperation, we look forward to working on many exciting projects together in the future.” says Juha Kauppinen, CEO, Gaming Corps.
The agreement furthermore includes some exclusivity for Betsson Group on Gaming Corps’ upcoming iJect series of Multiplier Games in Italy and Georgia. Distribution of the full Gaming Corps portfolio will be carried out via iSoftbet’s Game Aggregation Platform (GAP).
“As we continue to develop our product portfolio, I believe Gaming Corps is on the right track of offering the type of innovation that large operators are looking for in an increasingly saturated market. With our upcoming products we have let gamification lead the way, and that represents the core of this new partnership with Betsson. I am very excited to get
started on our collaboration.” says Alex Lorimer, Head of Business Development, Gaming Corps

ReferOn has completed a management buyout, with former General Manager Alex Bukin acquiring the iGaming affiliate management platform and taking over as Chief Executive Officer.
Bukin said the deal is intended to support longer-term product and market plans: “This is an important moment for ReferOn and the beginning of a new chapter for the business. The management buyout provides us with the long-term focus required to continually advance the platform. We remain committed to product development, strengthening our offerings for partners, and supporting ReferOn’s continued growth across key markets.”
ReferOn reported that in its first 12 months post-launch it recorded 35.7 million clicks, 2.4 million registrations, 18,000 affiliates, and 136,000 active trackers. The company also said it was named “Best Affiliate Platform” in 2025 and 2026 by industry stakeholders.
The company said the ownership change will not affect day-to-day operations and that existing support and partnerships will continue. It also pointed to recent product updates including Refie, described as a built-in interface layer, alongside features such as dynamic reporting, Company Grouping, Sub-Affiliation, Independent Deal Calculation (IDC), two-factor authentication (2FA), and mobile optimization.
As part of the transition, ReferOn said its leadership team remains in place, with Vlad Bondarenko moving from Head of Product to Chief Product Officer and David Harris moving from Operations Lead to Chief Operations Officer.
