Relax Gaming, the igaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, is in the process of opening seven new offices over the next 12 months to accommodate its rapidly increasing workforce as the company continues on its forecasted growth trajectory.

The supplier has recently opened an office in Gibraltar after receiving a B2B gaming licence from the Licensing Authority and is soon to establish a base in Stockholm to complement its Malmö office and further cement its presence in the Swedish market.

It’s also increasing capacity across existing headquarters in Vaasa, Helsinki, Malmö, Malta and Tallinn, the latter of which will include space for around 100 employees and is planned to open next summer.

Relax will move into the new Malta HQ this month, with the team there having grown by 30% since January, owing to the expansion of the partner, commercial, and operational teams.

Despite it being a challenging year for the industry and mindful of the disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, Relax has continued to recruit new team members, having hired 37 employees across all offices since March.

The expansion follows a year of substantial commercial success, with the supplier securing major deals with the industry’s biggest brands. In the last six months alone, it has partnered with Paf, Veikkaus, Paddy Power Betfair, GVC and Svenska Spel.

Relax has long promoted an ethos to hire where the talent is and a willingness to open offices to facilitate this standpoint.

Tommi Maijala, Relax Gaming CEO, said: “It’s been an incredible year for Relax Gaming with significant commercial achievements across the business, none of which would have been possible without the hard work, passion and talent of our entire team. People are our biggest asset and when good people are let go elsewhere, we make it a point to see if they can find a home at Relax and help us achieve our goals faster.

“The fact that we’ve continued to hire throughout this challenging time demonstrates the health of our business and is a testament to our technical excellence, commercial appeal and our constant strive for progress.

“As we reach another milestone in our company history, I want to say thank you again to all of Relax’s employees and I look forward to expanding the team with more fantastic individuals.”

The B2B iGaming platform provider assumes the role of Onabet’s dedicated technology partner, taking on platform delivery and operational infrastructure in one of the world’s most dynamic regulated markets.

Atlaslive has entered into a direct partnership agreement with Onabet, a licensed Brazilian operator holding authorization from the Secretariat of Prizes and Betting (SPA/MF) to provide online gaming services across Brazil. Ranked among the top 10 operators in the country by gross gaming revenue, Onabet is one of the recognized names in Brazil’s fast-growing regulated betting industry. Under this agreement, Atlaslive assumes the role of Onabet’s dedicated technology partner—delivering platform infrastructure and continuous operational support.

Having generated an estimated $5.96 billion in gambling revenue during its inaugural year of regulation, Brazil’s iGaming market now ranks among the five largest globally. Onabet holds a federal licence under the regulatory framework introduced by Law 14.790/2023, with authorization to offer both sports-themed betting and online gaming products to players across the country.

Working under a direct partnership structure allows both organizations to achieve tighter alignment on product roadmap, accelerated deployment timelines, and unified accountability for platform uptime and performance. Onabet gains tighter coordination with the engineering and product teams building the technology they rely on daily, while Atlaslive advances its strategic focus on direct operator relationships—an approach that drives deeper technical integration and more sustainable outcomes in demanding regulated environments.

“When you work directly with the team that builds your platform, everything accelerates—from feature delivery to issue resolution. That’s the model we believe in, and we’re glad Onabet shares that vision,” said Volodymyr Taftai, Country Director for Brazil, Atlaslive. “Brazil is one of the most demanding regulated markets in the world. Earning the trust of a licensed operator here is something we take seriously.”

Hugo Baungartner, Institutional Director at Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil, added: “The Brazilian regulated market requires increasingly robust, scalable operations that are aligned with local dynamics. This partnership helps strengthen our technological capabilities and supports the continuous evolution of the experience delivered by Onabet.”

Atlaslive is a B2B iGaming technology company that develops a proprietary platform engineered for sportsbook and casino operations. Its business model centers on sustained operator partnerships, product-driven development, and comprehensive platform delivery.

Wazdan, a prominent innovator in game development, has unveiled its latest initiative, the Score the Jackpot campaign, offering operators a comprehensive promotional toolkit designed to tap into the excitement surrounding this summer’s football fever.

With the motto “Our Goal – Your Gain,” the campaign integrates four unique Wazdan games into a football-themed concept, enabling operators to craft engaging seasonal promotions around a balanced selection of captivating titles.

The Score the Jackpot campaign includes Mighty Wild: Gorilla, Cash Grotto, 16 Coins x5000, and Fisherman’s Luck. Each game has been carefully chosen to complement the wider promotion, creating a cohesive and dynamic gaming experience.

Mighty Wild: Gorilla delivers action-packed, bonus-rich gameplay as part of one of Wazdan’s flagship series. Cash Grotto offers a visually distinct design and innovative mechanics, adding diversity to the mix. The ever-popular 16 Coins x5000 strengthens the lineup as a standout title from the Coins collection, while Fisherman’s Luck adds a breezy, summer-themed vibe that aligns perfectly with the campaign’s seasonal focus.

Rather than spotlighting individual game launches, Score the Jackpot aims to assist operators in building unified, football-centric promotions. By offering a pre-assembled collection of games, the campaign provides a structured foundation for summer marketing efforts while underscoring Wazdan’s dedication to flexible and results-oriented promotional solutions.

Accompanied by the tagline “Don’t drop the ball this summer,” the initiative highlights Wazdan’s strategy of combining strong gaming content with strategic seasonal engagement. This approach enables operators to capture players’ interest during one of the most celebrated sporting seasons of the year.

Andrzej Hyla, Chief Commercial Officer at Wazdan, commented: “Score the Jackpot has been crafted to help operators amplify player engagement during some of the year’s most iconic sporting moments, leveraging a football-inspired, plug-and-play campaign concept.”

He further added: “Each game in the package offers something unique, empowering operators to design diverse promotions that revolve around entertainment, variety, and timely seasonal themes.”
