MERKUR Casino Expands Headquarters in Milton Keynes with Major Office Move
Leading gaming company MERKUR Casino has moved its national headquarters to new office space in the heart of Milton Keynes’ thriving business district.
Previously housed in Seebeck House, Knowlhill, MERKUR Casino has signed a 10-year lease for its new offices, on the second floor at Matrix House, which is situated at North Fourth Street in the city. Taking 12,541 sq. ft, the deal was the largest office letting of 2023 in Milton Keynes.
Mark Schertle, chief operating officer for MERKUR Casino UK, said: “This move is a major milestone in our business expansion plans and it paves the way for our future to grow the team even more in the year ahead.
“We’ve enjoyed 10 years at our old office, but as our business and team continues to expand across the UK at a rapid rate, we need a new headquarters. With the well-being of our entire staff a top priority, we are looking forward to the upgraded amenities and facilities, which will enable us to offer an optimal work environment for everyone.”
Mark continued: “I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved, we’re delighted to call Matrix House our new Milton Keynes home and very much looking forward to the next chapter for our business.”

3 Oaks Gaming adds Flexible Free Spins to its promo tools
3 Oaks Gaming has added a new bonus mechanic, Flexible Free Spins, to its promotional tools offering, the company said.
The feature allocates free spins based on a total value rather than a fixed number of spins at a set stake. Players can then select how to use the award from up to 20 options, choosing between different combinations of bet size and spin count while staying within the same budget.
3 Oaks Gaming said each option is mathematically pre-calculated to remain within the defined value. When the award is issued, players see a modal pop-up with the available choices, with the default selection set to the median option.
Anna Nozdran, Acting Product Owner at 3 Oaks Gaming, said: “Flexible Free Spins deliver a fresh take on the traditional bonus setup within an online slot, providing players with greater control over their gameplay experience that suits their preferences.
“Every option is pre-calculated within the same budget, ensuring consistency for operators while offering a more dynamic experience for players. We firmly believe this new addition will complement the existing 3 Oaks Gaming portfolio and deliver greater value for our partners.”
