Customer experience campaign & consulting experts A GAME ABOVE announce the appointment of iGaming industry veteran NICOLAS FLEIDERMAN to the role of Chief Executive Officer
Fleiderman to focus the team on rapid growth, regulated markets, international expansion and the omni-channel opportunity after an intense start-up year with major client deliveries achieved across the EU, African, and North and Latin American regions.
A GAME ABOVE, the leading customer experience campaigns and consulting agency specialising in work for operator and supplier clients across regulated iGaming markets, are proud to announce the appointment of Nicolas Fleiderman as Chief Executive Officer.
Nicolas commences duties as CEO with immediate effect following the recent first anniversary of A GAME ABOVE and the planned departure of interim CEO Steen Madsen.
“Since my first meeting with the A GAME ABOVE team last year I was fascinated by their business model and the team’s confidence in their unique campaigns creating loyal and passionate customers through all stages of the value chain. Working together on a shared client project at that time I saw first-hand how dramatically they can impact the P&L, in some cases within just days of a campaign launch. The more we talked about the future of the industry, given our different perspectives, the more I felt I could add the required leadership and direction that would make for a powerful sum of the parts. I’m extremely happy to join a motivated and passionate team building unique client propositions with so many creative assets that plug, play and perform with to deliver positive ROI across the omni-channel opportunity – something of an open goal right now, for those who can clearly establish a cost-effective conversion benchmark,” said Nicolas Fleiderman, Chief Executive Officer at A GAME ABOVE.
Fleiderman joins the marketing and advisory disruptor at a tipping point for the iGaming industry internationally. The traditional business models look increasingly vulnerable in the face of regulation itself, and its impact upon operator cost per acquisition budgets, as well as investor demands for improved performance across the PLC sector. Cost commitments for operators are rising, everywhere, and the margin left is a stark reminder of the impact of regulation across everything.
“Our performance over 2020 included game-changing campaigns for our clients, featuring highlights such as a more than 200% month-on-month revenue increase, and even greater impact upon GGR, across a casino-only operator in a regulated US State, and a record-breaking sportsbook launch, delivering super-charged sign-ups, activity and maintenance of that audience as they came for more than just a bonus offer and a few bets to play it through. They came for the game above the gambling. Attention across the entire value chain of player lifecycle has to become the standard model for the future simply as the results far exceed any alternatives,” said Chief Operating Officer for A GAME ABOVE, Jakob Famme.
Nicolas joins the team with a distinguished record and reputation across the betting and gaming industry. A summary of his career highlights includes:
- Senior teams: C-Level positions with 15 gaming companies, internationally
- Value generation: Multi-million dollar M&A and management exits realised for established businesses led by Nicolas
- Government and Advisory Board appointments: Positions on large State-owned companies and PLCs
- Innovation: Development and engineering across a dozen iGaming platforms, across all key product verticals
- Advisory: A consultant of record across dozens of key projects and jurisdictions
“An industry veteran of Nicolas’ calibre is totally the right call for the A GAME ABOVE team at this point in the business mission. The commitment to detail and delivery is obvious across Jakob and Ismail’s experience and day-to-day. As President, I’m looking for the medium to long-term performance and structure that builds reliably to success. Nicolas’ appointment delivers a dealmaker and sole decision-maker with a solid track record that speaks to only one outcome: getting the job done, and done well. I’m very much looking forward to working with him” said Bill Pascrell, III, President of A GAME ABOVE.

What Canadian Slot Players Are Really Comparing in 2026: Payout Speed, Interac and RTP Transparency
Canadian online slot players are becoming more practical.
The old conversion model was simple: show a big welcome bonus, list a few popular games, and hope the player clicked through. That still has a place, but it no longer reflects how better-informed casino players compare sites in 2026.
The conversation has shifted.
Players are now asking sharper questions before they deposit. How fast can I cash out? Does the casino support Interac? Are the best games actually available in Canada? What happens after I win? Are the slot terms clear? Can I see RTP information without digging through a help centre?
For operators, affiliates and suppliers watching the Canadian market, this change matters. The slot player is not just bonus-led anymore. The player is becoming banking-led, payout-led and value-led.
Payout speed has become a decision factor
Withdrawal speed is one of the biggest practical differences between online casinos.
Many casinos still market themselves around welcome packages, but the post-win experience is where trust is won or lost. Players notice pending periods. They notice extra verification steps. They notice whether withdrawals are processed quickly or whether the process feels deliberately slow.
That is why comparison behaviour around fastest payout casinos in Canada has become more commercially important. A casino can have a large slot library and a generous bonus, but if the payout process is slow, many experienced players will look elsewhere.
This is especially true for slot players. Slots create quick sessions, frequent bonus rounds and unpredictable payout moments. A player who wins on a Friday night does not want to discover that the casino only starts reviewing cashouts on Monday.
Fast payout positioning is not just a payment feature. It is a trust signal.
Interac remains central to the Canadian player journey
Interac is still one of the most important payment expectations in Canada.
For many players, it feels familiar, local and practical. It connects online casino banking with everyday Canadian banking behaviour. That matters because casino payments are a high-friction moment. Players may be comfortable browsing games, comparing bonuses and reading reviews, but depositing money is where hesitation appears.
Clear information about Interac casino payments helps reduce that hesitation.
The most useful casino pages now explain more than whether Interac is accepted. They answer questions such as:
- Is Interac available for deposits only, or withdrawals too?
- Are there minimum and maximum limits?
- Does account verification affect payout speed?
- Are e-Transfer withdrawals supported?
- Are there fees? Is Interac treated differently by province or operator?
This level of detail is valuable because Canadian players are not just asking “Can I pay?” They are asking “Can I deposit, play, withdraw and trust the process?”
That is a much more commercial question.
RTP transparency is becoming part of player value
RTP has always existed as a technical concept, but it is becoming more visible in player decision-making.
A casual player may not calculate long-term return percentages before every spin. But more players now understand that slot choice matters. They know that some games are more volatile, some bonuses are harder to clear, and some titles publish better long-term return figures than others.
This is why content around high-RTP slots is becoming more useful when it is presented properly.
The weak version of RTP content is an educational glossary: “RTP means return to player.” That is not enough anymore.
The stronger version connects RTP to actual player behaviour:
- Which high-RTP games are worth knowing?
- Which casinos offer strong slot libraries?
- How does volatility affect the player experience?
- Does the bonus structure make a high-RTP game less valuable?
- Are high-RTP slots available on mobile?
- Can Canadian players access the games easily?
RTP transparency does not mean players expect to beat the casino. It means they want clearer information before choosing where and what to play.
Mobile play is raising expectations
Canadian slot players are heavily mobile-led.
That changes the comparison process. A player may research on desktop, but the actual deposit and session often happen on a phone. If the casino lobby is slow, payment forms are clunky, or game filters do not work well on mobile, the player experience suffers.
Mobile also puts more pressure on clarity. Players do not want to scroll through huge blocks of bonus terms. They want fast answers:
- Best casino for quick withdrawals
- Best Interac option
- Best slot lobby
- Best high-RTP games
- Best mobile experience
For affiliates and operators, this means page structure matters. Tables, verdict boxes, payment summaries and direct recommendations often outperform long, generic content.
The market is moving away from generic casino comparisons
The Canadian slots market is not short of casino lists.
The issue is that many lists look the same. Same bonus-first ranking. Same generic claims. Same vague “safe and secure” language. Same lack of useful payout or banking detail.
The better opportunity is to compare casinos around real player decisions.
For Canadian slot players, that often means:
- How fast can I withdraw?
- Can I use Interac?
- What games are actually worth playing?
- Is the casino reliable after I win?
- Does the site work properly on mobile?
- Are the terms clear enough to trust?
These questions are more practical than promotional. They also create stronger commercial intent.
A player searching for payout speed, Interac support or slot value is usually further along the decision journey than someone casually browsing a bonus list.
What this means for the industry
The Canadian slot player in 2026 is not necessarily less bonus-driven. But the bonus is no longer the whole story.
The market is becoming more mature, and mature players compare the full experience. They want payment confidence, game quality, mobile usability, transparent terms and fewer surprises after depositing.
For operators, this means the product experience has to support the marketing promise.
For affiliates, it means generic casino pages are losing their edge. The stronger play is to build content around the actual comparison points players care about.
Payout speed, Interac and RTP transparency are not side details anymore.
They are becoming part of the main decision.
