Relax Gaming, the igaming aggregator and supplier of unique content has had its strong focus on localisation recognised, winning the Casino Content Supplier award at the EGR Nordics 2021 awards.

Awarded in recognition of the supplier’s outstanding contribution to the Nordic gaming industry, the aggregator and developer has been pioneering in its ability to offer a roster of 1500+ casino games and a diverse range of proprietary products, along with its ability to deliver high-quality partner content at unrivalled speed.

As such, growth for Relax has been rapid and it was this that particularly impressed the awards panel of judges. The company signed over 70 new commercial deals over the judging period, including Nordic leaders Svenska Spel.

Relax’s portfolio, including its own record-breaking proprietary content such as Money Train, Snake Arena and Money Train 2 has been strengthened and expanded by the content generated from its hand-picked third-party studios via its Silver Bullet and Powered By Relax programmes.

The judges were particularly impressed with Relax’s ability to offer studios a simplified route to market, as well as the company’s dedication to development in the Nordic markets, stating:

“The growth in numbers speaks well about Relax Gaming’s popularity both with operators and players. The business model supplies small and innovative studios with access to the big casinos to promote and nurture development and innovation in the Nordic markets.

“Moreover, focus on mobile as a distribution channel is in line with the current trends in the Nordic markets.”

Commenting on the award win, Simon Hammon, CPO at Relax Gaming sees the recognition as testament to the team’s ability to offer an unrivalled combination of cutting-edge content and unique distribution models. Adding:

“Relax Gaming has continued to demonstrate its ability to deliver high-quality games that stand out in today’s saturated market. The likes of Money Train 2 epitomises our talent in creating innovative content that differentiates.

“It isn’t just our games that have helped us achieve this win though, hand-picked slots from our rising star studios supply our Nordic partners with games that make an impact. We understand that entertainment needs to be unique and we have found that by using business simplicity and truly understanding our clients, the benefits and results are huge.

“We’re truly honoured by the recognition this award represents and the fact that it validates our firmly held belief in the way we do business. A huge thanks goes to all at Relax, as well as our highly valued partners.”

With a host of industry honours and accolades to celebrate in the last year alone, Relax has secured Casino Software Supplier at the 2020 EGR B2B Awards, Poker Supplier of the Year at The Gaming Intelligence Awards, as well as Slot Developer of the Year at December’s SBC Awards.

Together, we’re able to strengthen tournament operations while unlocking richer engagement experiences for fans. Starting with the NODWIN Clutch Series for CS2, we see strong potential to expand this collaboration across new IPs, new regions, and new competitive formats.”

GoldenRace, líder mundial en deportes virtuales y soluciones de apuestas, y Spinmatic, innovador desarrollador de juegos de casino de alta calidad, celebran cinco años de una exitosa asociación con Playlogiq, una de sus colaboraciones más duraderas.

Desde el 7 de enero de 2021, GoldenRace y Spinmatic han trabajado codo con codo con el equipo de Playlogiq para ofrecer experiencias de juego de primer nivel en todo el mundo. Han sido más de cinco años de objetivos compartidos, sinergia técnica y, lo más importante, resultados inmejorables.

Esta asociación ha sido un motor fundamental para el crecimiento en el continente africano. Al aprovechar la sólida plataforma de Playlogiq y el contenido líder en el sector de GoldenRace y Spinmatic, han logrado proporcionar a los operadores una ventaja competitiva que conecta con los jugadores locales.

Aunque el alcance del acuerdo es amplio, se ha obtenido un éxito excepcional en África Oriental, donde el interés por contenidos de apuestas de alta calidad y ritmo trepidante sigue disparándose. Al centrarnos en las ofertas online y móviles, las compañías han llegado al corazón del mercado africano moderno de las apuestas, donde la accesibilidad y el rendimiento son las claves para alcanzar altos volúmenes de tráfico.

“Nuestra colaboración con Playlogiq siempre ha sido algo más que una simple transacción comercial; se trata de una relación muy sólida y productiva entre dos empresas que comparten el afán por la excelencia. Al ofrecer nuestra gama completa de verticales, Playlogiq ha demostrado ser un socio fundamental en nuestra misión de dominar los mercados clave de África”.

Martin Wachter, director ejecutivo y fundador de GoldenRace.

Uno de los aspectos más destacados de esta colaboración es el compromiso de Playlogiq con la innovación: siempre se encuentran entre los primeros en integrar e implementar los últimos lanzamientos de GoldenRace y Spinmatic, lo que garantiza que sus operadores tengan acceso a una oferta variada y emocionante.

“Trabajar con GoldenRace y Spinmatic desde 2021 nos ha permitido ofrecer constantemente a nuestros operadores el contenido más atractivo del mercado. El tráfico que observamos, especialmente a través de los canales móviles y online, es una prueba de la calidad de los juegos. Hemos visto cómo Spinmatic se ha convertido, con diferencia, en nuestra línea de productos más exitosa, con la serie Sizzling Blaze generando una increíble participación en todos los ámbitos”.

Baha Yahya, director ejecutivo de Playlogiq.

La línea de productos Spinmatic se ha erigido como la campeona indiscutible de esta asociación. Es, con diferencia, la línea de productos más exitosa que se ofrece a Playlogiq.

Aunque los slots de Spinmatic lideran actualmente la oferta, los deportes virtuales de GoldenRace siguen siendo un pilar fundamental de la oferta de Playlogiq. Proporcionan una fuente de ingresos constante y fiable, y son especialmente apreciados por los entusiastas de las apuestas deportivas.

Lo que hace que esta colaboración sea realmente especial no es solo el GGR o las estadísticas de tráfico, sino la sólida relación entre las empresas, las cuales hablan el mismo idioma en lo que respecta a la calidad y a una visión común sobre el futuro del igaming.
