With the acquisition of Kindred last year, following Premier Lotteries Ireland and ZEturf in 2023, FDJ has cemented its status as a champion in Europe’s betting and gaming sector. To reflect its new strategy aimed at achieving lasting growth across Europe, FDJ is changing its name to FDJ UNITED.

This new name reflects the Group’s European scale while paying tribute to its roots, its history and what makes it unique. The new “FDJ UNITED” name reaffirms the Group’s historic name, “FDJ”, and combines it with “UNITED”, reflecting its international development.

“The betting and gaming sector is constantly evolving, both in France and abroad. In this environment, we have always succeeded in reinventing ourselves and adapting to key trends in our market. The Group’s IPO in 2019 marked the start of a new stage in this journey, and the recent acquisition of Kindred opens up even more new possibilities. Today, our Group begins a new chapter in its history – more diversified and more international. With FDJ UNITED, we are continuing on this adventure, driven by our passion and determination, for the benefit of all our stakeholders,” Stéphane Pallez, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of FDJ UNITED, said.

The Group will continue to use the FDJ trade name in France, where this major brand is particularly popular and recognised by 97% of the population. FDJ will cover products under exclusive rights in France such as Loto, Euromillions, Astro and ParionsSport point de vente. Players will thus continue to see the FDJ logo on their scratch cards and betting slips, at points of sale and on the fdj.fr website.

With FDJ, The National Lottery and a number of iconic online betting and gaming brands, including Unibet, FDJ UNITED has a portfolio of powerful brands all over Europe, which will continue to operate under their own trade names while embodying the Group’s values.

“To kick off this new European chapter in our story, we needed a powerful new identity. Our new name, FDJ UNITED, is a corporate brand designed to showcase what we stand for, together with our new brand signature: ‘Playful. Play fair. Play forward.’ Alongside FDJ UNITED, we will of course continue to operate the brands that have made us what we are today. In particular, the FDJ brand will remain the face of the business for our customers in France, for our lottery games and our sports betting range at points of sale. Rounding out our business portfolio are other powerful brands such as The National Lottery in Ireland and Unibet across Europe,” Nathalie Le Garlantezec, Chief Communications Officer at FDJ UNITED, said.

The new name comes with a new visual identity that pays tribute to the past while looking firmly ahead to the future. The FDJ UNITED logo uses a diamond shape derived from the La Française des Jeux diamond. The diamond shape was first used in 1991 and has since featured in every version of the logo, making it a powerful visual element of the brand that is carried on in the FDJ UNITED logo. Taken from the playing card suit, the diamond represents chance. The many facets of this precious stone also symbolise the company’s multiple, complementary areas of business.

For the colours in its new visual identity, the Group has chosen to continue to mainly use shades of blue, its traditional colour, while also drawing on the Kindred colours of purple and green.

Sought-after software provider’s latest Book Series slot sees player write a new chapter of rewards with free spins, expanding symbols and wins of up to 5,000x

Having consistently wowed players with its page-turning Book slots, popular software provider Swintt is back in action this month with another exciting chapter in MonyMax Book Hunt – an all-new Egyptian adventure filled with all the series’ favourite features.

A five-reel slot that can be played with either five or ten active paylines, MonyMax Book Hunt sees players embark on another thrilling trip to the Land of the Pharaoh’s where collecting ankhs, sarcophagi and dashing adventurers holds the key to unlocking legendary prizes of up to 5,000x.

Featuring an immersive Egyptian-inspired soundtrack and taking place in front of a backdrop of a golden tomb glistening in the evening sun, MonyMax Book Hunt’s greatest treasures are found in its free spins feature, which is activated by landing three iconic book symbols in any reel position.

To aid players on this literary quest, the slot features two optional enhancements that make triggering the bonus a little easier – the first is an added bet that makes book symbols more likely to the appear, while the second is a “Buy Feature Games” button that grants them instant access.

However they reach the bonus round, players will be awarded with an initial 10 free spins and presented with a new screen where one regular icon will be chosen at random to become an expanding symbol. Should any instances of the selected symbol appear during their free games, they’ll stretch to fill their reel irrespective of position so long as a winning payline can be created.

In this way, players can further increase their chances of landing multiple wins on every spin – and if they’re feeling really adventurous, they’ll even have the option to gamble their total prize in an additional Risk feature, where correctly guessing red or black will see their winnings doubled.

David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Swintt’s Book Series of slots has already proved to be a real page-turner for players – and this month, we’re writing an exciting new chapter in MonyMax Book Hunt. Boasting the same fan-favourite features that have made the franchise such a success and two easy-access bet modes, we’re sure the game will go on to become a big hit with Book veterans and newcomers alike, making it another must-have release for operators.”
