BF Games cements Romanian position with Baumbet deal
Creative development studio BF Games has bolstered its presence in Romania after taking its content live with leading operator Baumbet.
BF Games’ extensive slot library is now available to Baumbet’s customers including fan-favourites Book of Gods, Crystal Mania, and Hot Classic, as well as titles from the supplier’s Remastered series which features revamped and enhanced versions of BF Games’ all-time hits.
Baumbet is a prominent name in Romania, with a history of retail operations extending over 25 years and a strong online brand.

Claudia Melcaru, Head of Business Development at BF Games, said: “Our games portfolio has been extremely well-received by Romanian players and we are thrilled to further expand our reach by partnering with Baumbet, which demonstrates the demand for our content in the country.”
Daniel Cordos, COO at Baumbet, said: “BF Games has a solid portfolio of games that appeal to a wide range of players and their content has a proven track record in Romania.
“We are thrilled to add their growing portfolio to our existing offer and look forward to a successful partnership.”

What started as a small group of friends, passionate engineers, evolved into a company delivering critical systems for high-growth businesses.
“Joining forces with Super feels like a natural next step for us. We already share a strong technical connection, and also a very similar way of thinking about ownership, speed, and building reliable technology that can scale over time.
