New challenger approaching: Introducing Slotsoo Casino Awards
The iGaming industry’s awards season is in full swing. Today (1st June 2023), Slotsoo is jumping on the train by launching Slotsoo Casino Awards. With this new venture, the casino comparison site wants to celebrate excellence among casino operators in a fun way, with the goal to inspire the casino industry to do better.
Fun Categories that are Relevant to Players
The Slotsoo Casino Awards consist of seven different trophies with humorous names such as The Bonus Buff and The Withdrawal Wizard. The team has made an intentional decision to keep the number low and the categories focused on the player experience.
Markus Björk, Slotsoo’s head writer and team leader, explains:
”Slotsoo wants to be the perfect mix of serious and fun – we are allergic to boring. When deciding on the different categories we made sure they resonate to players and not just media or higher-ups. We also wanted to avoid having too many trophies, because then they would lose their point. If everyone is a winner, then nobody is a winner.”
He continues to tell that every team member likes to play slots too, so they know what the average player values and what they don’t.
The Winners for Slotsoo Awards 2023
· The Gambling GOAT – Svenbet Casino
· The Bonus Buff – Slot Paradise
· The Loyalty Lord – Qbet Casino
· The Withdrawal Wizard – iBet Casino
· The Gamification Guru – Happy Hugo
· The Payout Professor – Snatch Casino
· The Noisy Newcomer – Monsino
Please visit Slotsoo Casino Awards for descriptions of the trophies and detailed winner motivations.
All casinos listed on Slotsoo are automatically nominated. Instead of using an external jury to select the winners, the decision is done by the team itself – meaning the same people that actually test and review every site.
Big Plans for Expansion
The dust has barely settled from the launch of the new awards, but the Slotsoo team already have big aspirations how to expand the concept. Markus Björk shares their plans for the future:
”We want to do similar awards on our other language versions. Simultaneously, we are looking to introduce separate awards for game providers. After all, they are the backbone of the casinos, and they deserve just as much celebration.”
Who is Slotsoo?
Slotsoo is a multilingual comparison site for online casinos and slots run by a tight-knit group of slot enthusiasts. The website was launched in 2017 and offers expert reviews of casinos, slots and game providers – plus guides for different payment methods and license authorities.

The supplier says the redesign uses a coding-inspired, modular system aimed at consistency across products, motion, and future subbrands.
GR8_TECH has unveiled a redesigned brand identity positioned as a tech-native update for a digital-first iGaming market. The company said the new system goes beyond a visual refresh, aiming to better reflect how technology brands “think, move, and evolve.”
According to GR8_TECH, the identity uses a coding-inspired visual language, modular design principles, and a motion-first approach intended to work consistently across products, platforms, and future subbrands.
“This was never about changing the brand for the sake of change. GR8_TECH already had strong recognition and character,” said Iryna Ilchanka, Creative Lead at GR8_TECH. “Our goal was to sharpen it, to create a system that feels more future-ready and aligned with the level of technology and ambition behind the company.”
GR8_TECH said it approached the redesign as an evolving framework rather than a fixed brand guideline. “We didn’t want to create a static brand book. Rather, we wanted to build a living framework that can continuously evolve together with the business,” Ilchanka added.
The company framed the update as part of its broader positioning around “championship,” describing the brand direction as focused on discipline, technology, and continuous evolution.

TaDa Gaming has announced its participation in Peru Gaming Show 2026, one of the most influential B2B gaming exhibitions in Latin America. The event will take place at the Jockey Exhibition Centre in Lima, Peru, on June 17–18, bringing together an estimated 8,000 delegates and 80 exhibitors under one roof.

Meanwhile, the “Lucky” series was designed specifically for Latin American players. All titles benefit from TaDa Gaming’s localization expertise and know-how, ensuring experiences aligned with target audiences in terms of themes, cultural relevance, and bonus preferences.
Access to high-growth and regulated markets across the region is supported by TaDa Gaming’s extensive portfolio of global licenses and certifications.
This provides the supplier with a competitive advantage in delivering future-ready gaming experiences and has led to major partnership agreements with key industry players, including the international full-service iGaming content and technology provider Bragg Gaming Group.
The TaDa Gaming team will also be available to share data-driven performance insights across key Latin American markets, as well as flexible partnership models that position the company as a strategic value partner.
Ray Lee, Business Development Director at TaDa Gaming, commented: “Latin America as a whole is a key strategic market for TaDa Gaming, and Peru in particular is also highly important. Events like PGS allow us to connect directly with the stakeholders shaping the future of the industry.
We invite everyone to visit us at Stand 52 to discuss partnership development and learn more about emerging regulatory and technological trends in Peru.”
