Livespins, the award-winning platform that allows operators to leverage the demand for casino streaming, has significantly increased its distribution among tier-one operators after partnering with Comtrade.

Comtrade is an independent software provider with truly global reach, powering big-name operators such as Mansion Group and its M88 brand.

By joining forces with Livespins, Comtrade operators can now offer their players socially charged online casino experiences for the first time. Livespins allows players to tune into popular streams and get directly involved in the action by betting behind their favourite streamer, brand ambassador or celebrity.

This creates a group bet and a shared player experience but with each player able to set their own bet among and number of spins. Whether their bet wins or not, a fun, entertaining and interactive experience is guaranteed with each spin.

Social interaction is at the heart of the Livespins experience – players can chat with each other and the streamer throughout, and also drop reactions, emojis and even gifs.

Livespins has stocked its lobby with slots from the most popular providers in the market, with streamers firing up the reels in titles from the likes of Yggdrasil Gaming, Relax Gaming and iSoftBet. The new way of delivering slots to operators and players saw Livespins pick up the award for Innovation in Slot Provision at this year’s EGR B2B Awards.

Michael Pedersen, Chief Commercial Officer at Livespins, said: “Our platform and product are changing the game for online casino operators and this partnership with Comtrade allows us to bring slot streaming more brands than ever before.

“Comtrade is focused on powering only the biggest casinos in markets across the world, so this partnership will add high-calibre brands to our growing line-up of operator partners.

“That Livespins sits within the lobbies of these casinos means that players are afforded the same responsible gambling measures as when playing other games and this in turn means that Comtrade’s partners can leverage the streaming opportunity confident that they are fully compliant.”

Steven Valentine, Chief Commercial Officer at Comtrade, added: “At Comtrade, we believe in value driven technology and go to great lengths to ensure that our operators can provide the best possible experience to their players. This partnership with Livespins allows us to do just that.

“Casino and slot streaming is big and will only get bigger. Livespins allows operators to capitalise on this in a way that is responsible and compliant, providing an entirely new way for them to experience online casino.

“This is a strong addition to our offering and strengthens our position as the go-to technology partner for the biggest online casino brands in the world.”

Groove has been named a finalist for Best Aggregator 2026 at the SiGMA Asia Awards, with the ceremony scheduled for 2 June 2026 at the SMX Convention Centre Manila during the SiGMA Asia Summit.

The shortlist was announced by Global Gaming Insider, according to the company. Groove said its platform aggregates more than 15,000 games from over 150 providers via a single API.

Giusy Campo, Business Development Director at Groove, said: “This shortlist is external recognition of a truth we already feel internally: Groove is moving at a different pace. Asia is not a single market, it is a collection of distinct regulatory environments, player behaviours, and partnership opportunities”

Campo added: “Our platform is built to respect that complexity, not smooth it over. Being named a finalist for Best Aggregator tells us that our approach; deep integration, localised content strategies, and commercial precision; is resonating with the operators who matter most in this region. We are not just bringing games to Asia. We are bringing a roadmap for sustainable growth.”

Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, said: “The aggregation space is crowded. Differentiation is everything. This nomination confirms that our vision, transforming aggregation from a commodity into a strategic growth discipline, is taking hold.” He added: “Operators across Asia are no longer asking for just volume or speed. They are asking for structural resilience, data intelligence, and a partner who can execute across fragmented regulatory landscapes with precision. Groove delivers that. To be recognised alongside the best in Asia is a privilege, but the real work continues in Manila and beyond. We are here to win, not just awards, but the trust of the operators who build their businesses on our platform.”

DATA.BET says turnover from its virtual content grew 168% between Q1 2025 and Q1 2026, with the supplier reporting the product accounted for 39% of total virtual sports turnover and 45% of profits over the period.

The company said the content is developed fully in-house and delivered through automated bot-vs-bot matches that run 24/7 without dependence on real-world fixture schedules. DATA.BET positioned the format as a way to provide continuous events and reduce operational overhead for operators.

Across the same period, DATA.BET reported +299% active users, +129% across clients GGR, +246% events per quarter, and +218% bets placed.

DATA.BET also said the audience profile overlaps with live football bettors, which it believes supports retention during seasonal breaks. The supplier added that the algorithm-driven format “carries no fraud exposure,” supports In-Stream Betting overlays, and provides near-zero latency between broadcast and market updates.

“Over the past year, our bot-vs-bot virtual content has delivered consistent, measurable results across every operator deployment. Building e-Football in-house gives us the flexibility to configure it to what each operator actually needs — whether that is a specific league structure, a particular mix of bot and player content, or a branded competition format,” mentioned Rostyslav Likhtin, Head of Product at DATA.BET.
