ComeOn changes name to ComeOn Group
Gaming operator ComeOn Group announces it’s adding ‘Group’ to its name to clarify the company set-up and strategy.
ComeOn Group consists of more than 20 brands across multiple markets, holding gaming licenses in Malta, Sweden, Denmark, Poland and Germany. With one of the groups consumer brands being www.comeon.com there has often been external confusion on the differentiation of the owner company and the consumer brand. ComeOn Group is also the owner of www.cherrycasino.com, a fact that also has caused some confusion as the group was previously the biggest subsidiary of the stock listed company Cherry AB. Today ComeOn Group is owned by European Entertainment Intressenter. You can find more info about ComeOn Group at www.comeon-group.com
“As for many other operators in our industry, adding Group to our company name is a natural step for us. We get to keep the fantastic name and brand identity that ComeOn has and at the same time, we make it clear that we are not just one brand. We are a group with over 500 employees, 2 technical platforms and more than 20 brands.”, says Lahcene Merzoug, CEO at ComeOn Group.
Founded in 2008, the ComeOn Group has had a fantastic journey growing from a small start-up to a big player in online gaming. Powered by a lean but highly skilled workforce the ComeOn Group is practicing a multi brand strategy to be able to create better user experiences through meaningful brands.

Aviatrix Launches New Loot Boxes to Deepen Progression and Reward Paths
Aviatrix has launched a new Loot Box feature for its premier crash game, presenting collectible rewards, free bets, and progression bonuses aimed at boosting long-term player engagement.
Loot Boxes are granted through a daily rewards mechanism, with players obtaining them according to their in-game actions and advancement. Every box holds a variety of rewards, such as aircraft skins, complimentary bets, and aviation experience points.
The feature enhances Aviatrix’s developing loyalty system, providing players with fresh options to personalize their aircraft and earn rewards through continuous engagement.
Anastasia Rimskaya, Chief Account Officer at Aviatrix, said: “Loot Boxes are part of our wider vision for Aviatrix as a connected multi-game universe. As we expand our iGaming Metaverse, features like Loot Boxes add another meaningful layer to how players build their profile, customise their aircraft and earn rewards across the ecosystem.”
Unveiled in February, the Aviatrix iGaming Metaverse signifies the supplier’s shift from a standalone crash game to an integrated multi-title ecosystem.
Starting with the imminent debut of Aviatrix Second Chance and continuing with upcoming titles like Aviatrix Fruits and Aviatrix Mines, every game will utilize a single integrated player profile, progression system, and rewards and achievements framework.

PlaySignal Debuts: Alec Gehlot’s New Sophisticated Responsible Gaming Platform
Alec Gehlot, previous senior executive at Optimove, has introduced PlaySignal, a responsible gaming platform aimed at assisting operators in identifying and addressing player risk promptly.
PlaySignal employs a traffic-light system featuring green, amber, and red signals to steer player conduct and indicate when behaviors start to enter higher-risk areas. The platform seeks to minimize avoidable exclusions by offering operators enhanced visibility of rising risks, while simultaneously giving players more understanding of how their actions are evaluated.
Leveraging behavioural analytics, PlaySignal tracks player actions during gameplay and displays information as distinct signals. This allows teams to act earlier and react more appropriately as risk evolves.
The product connects with current operator systems to assist responsible gaming, CRM, and compliance teams by providing a unified view of activities, encouraging a more uniform strategy among teams as regulatory demands grow in important markets.
Building on his time at Optimove, where he collaborated with operators on segmentation, retention, and user engagement, Gehlot recognized a demand for innovative tools to enhance player protection as regulatory and tax pressures mount in regulated markets.
The company launched PlaySignal at ICE earlier this year, where it was a contender in the Innovators Challenge, and initiated talks with operators in various markets. The initial launch will concentrate on the UK prior to global expansion.
Alec Gehlot, Chief Executive Officer at PlaySignal, said: “Regulation and taxation are only moving in one direction, and operators need new tools to adapt. Player protection can no longer be treated as a compliance obligation; it has to become a competitive differentiator.
“Regulated operators are under real pressure, particularly in the UK, and we believe giving them earlier visibility of risk is essential not just for protection, but for long-term sustainability.”
