Groove’s new product manager starts with a bang
Aggregator and platform Groove has developed a revolutionary product designed to deliver the best casino experience that has been nurtured through a year of painstaking development by Groove’s new Product Manager Shay Kababia.
The technology upgrade follows hot-on-the-heels of a Groove rebrand that reflects the futuristic direction of the company; along with a change of website and domain to www.groovetech.com as the refreshed brand’s expression around game-changing innovation.
Kababia and his team of developers have been working round-the-clock to realise an ambitious addition to the Groove offering, with the user-friendly data-driven recommender having an intuitive UI/UX set-up that provides operators with four levels of display based on player behaviour analytics: Recommended; new games; coming soon; and, may interest you as well.
With the help of the four levels, the new technology helps maximise casino ROI by aligning content to casino brand traffic.
Operators are now able to more efficiently manage the betting process and gather data on the outcomes of various initiatives in one screen using the new feature, while having full control of their own admin. The tool is easy to navigate and there are plenty of opportunities to discover new content from over 100 content partners as well as from the new GrooveStudio launched last week.
Through the rebrand, Groove’s twin pillars of turnkey (GrooveOn) and aggregation (GroovePlay), provided under an end-to-end technology umbrella, are supported by what is widely recognised as one of the best technical teams in the industry, further enhanced by the addition of Shay.
Groove has been able to establish itself as a benchmark for an operator cluster that includes tier-1’s and beyond, supporting a plethora of casino brands.
By offering a full suite of turnkey technology solutions over multichannel B2B iGaming for online and mobile gaming on all platforms, GrooveOn captures the entire B2B iGaming value chain.
Thanks to a wide range of carefully chosen game partners, GroovePlay continues to expand its library of games by over 100 each month. These games span bingo, sports betting, casino games, and content suitable for lottery providers. They also contain tried-and-tested classics as well as the most recent releases on the market.
Last year, Groove celebrated six years of offering turnkey and aggregation services to operators. Groove also keeps strengthening its ties to a wide range of stakeholders, such as payment processors, automated KYC, affiliate networks, artificial intelligence, and the best game developers in the world.
Groove’s Product Manager Shay Kababia said: “We have created this new tool so that operators with multiple brands will have a unique lobby for each brand based on key metrics. Our development team has pulled out all the stops to put Groove in a leading position with this introduction. It is already having an impact in our operator cluster.”
Yahale Meltzer, COO and co-founder at Groove, added: “Shay and his team have been instrumental in allowing us to realise our mission of improving service to our operator cluster. With the introduction of our new data-driven ‘Recommender’ tool, we are once again breaking the mould and upgrading how operators and their casino brands interact with the market.”

GoldenRace launches V5 mobile solution with unified app and WebGL branding
GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.
According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.
On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.
The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.
GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.

PopOK Gaming secures certification for Portugal iGaming market
PopOK Gaming has obtained certification for the Portuguese iGaming market, adding Portugal to its list of regulated jurisdictions where it can offer compliant gaming content to licensed operators.
The company said the certification confirms it meets local regulatory and technical requirements and supports its strategy to expand in regulated markets.
PopOK Gaming did not disclose which regulator or test lab issued the certification, which products are covered, or the date the approval was granted.
Portugal continues to operate a ring-fenced regulated online gambling framework, with market access dependent on product approvals and operator licensing. For suppliers, local certification is typically a prerequisite to distribute content to licensed brands.

API
St8 adds game round replays to its single API platform
Replay tool builds on St8’s graphical game round details and launches first with nine casino game studios.
St8 has launched game round replays, adding visual playback of completed casino game rounds to its existing single API platform. The company said the feature is designed to help operators verify outcomes faster and resolve player queries more efficiently.
The new capability builds on St8’s graphical game round details, which it said is already used by operators. With replays, support and operations teams can access a round’s visual playback to investigate gameplay disputes and respond to players with more transparency.
St8 also positioned the feature as a player engagement tool, with operators able to surface notable moments such as big wins and bonus rounds for promotional use.
Game round replays will initially support titles from AvatarUX, BGaming, Endorphina, Hacksaw, Peter & Sons, Pragmatic Play, Scatter Kings, Shady Lady, and Tequity Originals, with more providers to be added. St8 said the feature is delivered through its existing single API integration and requires no additional development work, and is intended to scale across multiple brands and regulated markets.
David Fall, Business Development Manager at St8, said: “Operators are under increasing pressure to deliver exceptional customer support while keeping operational costs under control. Our graphical game round details have become a trusted and widely used tool for operators, giving support teams quick access to the information they need to resolve player queries efficiently. Game round replays complement this capability by providing a visual playback of each round, helping teams resolve cases even faster and with complete confidence.
“Beyond operational efficiency, the feature also opens up new opportunities for engagement. Operators can showcase exciting gameplay moments, celebrate big wins and create richer player experiences – all through the same integration. Because game round replays are delivered through our existing single API, partners can access this functionality immediately while continuing to benefit from the simplicity and scalability that sit at the heart of the St8 platform.”
