Alina Mihaela Popa, Chief Commercial Officer at ICONIC21, said: “We’ve put a lot of thought and effort into our growth in Romania, so launching with Maxbet is yet another milestone for us in the market. Maxbet is trusted and has a loyal community of players, so being included in their lineup will further increase our games’ popularity in the Romanian market.
What really stands out with this deal is that we’re continuing to lay the foundation for a lasting presence in Romania, with more launches on the way. ICONIC21 is becoming a familiar name for players and operators here, and collaborations like this are making it happen.”
Manuel Bauer, CEO at Maxbet, said: “There’s definitely interest among our community every time something new lands in the lobby, and ICONIC21’s games are already generating plenty of interest. Our players are quick to spot quality and innovation, and we’re confident these new additions will become favorites, especially with the multiplier mechanics ICONIC introduces.

ELA Games reports 244.52% active user growth in Romania
Supplier links the uplift to classic-style slots with modern features, including Joker Winpot, as bet counts rise 239.74%.
ELA Games says it has expanded in Romania after rolling out titles that pair classic slot aesthetics with modern gameplay features.
The supplier reported a 244.52% increase in active users in Romania and a 239.74% rise in bet counts. The company attributed the performance to what it described as a “natural path” for traditional players to move into more feature-led play.
Marharyta Yerina, Managing Director of ELA Games, said: “It is great to see how Romanian players are enjoying the way we combine classic symbols with modern features. Joker Winpot works well for those who love the traditional look but actually want more excitement from their play. We also see that once players feel comfortable with these mechanics, they are happy to explore our other top titles which have proved to be successful in Romania like Cash of Gods and Flames Fruit Frenzy. It proves that respecting what players like is the best way to introduce new ideas to the market.”
ELA Games did not disclose the timeframe for the reported increases, which operators it works with in Romania, or how the metrics were calculated.
