Parimatch set for global content deal with Relax Gaming
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has reached an agreement to provide its varied content catalogue to major operator Parimatch.
Relax’s diverse, proprietary games library will be available to Parimatch players as a result of the deal, including blockbuster hit titles Temple Tumble, Snake Arena and the award-winning Money Train 2.
Augmenting these high-quality games will be content from Relax’s enviable roster of aggregated partners including Fantasma Games, ReelPlay, and 4ThePlayer. In total, over 50 innovative third-party studios have their content made available to Relax’s wide network of operators as a result of the Powered By Relax and Silver Bullet partnership programmes.
Parimatch has been operating its sports betting business for over two decades in territories across the world and, like Relax, has enjoyed significant, rapid expansion in recent years with the launch of its online casino, now bolstered by this new agreement.
The announcement is the latest in Relax’s drive to enhance its industry footing, delivering its products effectively and fast to an increasing number of operators in both established and developing regions.
Daniel Eskola, CCO at Relax Gaming, said: “It’s a delight to announce this deal with Parimatch, a company that shares our values of quality and differentiation.
“This is another step in the right direction for us; one that advances our expansion aims and broadens our reach in the right markets.”
Eugene Saveliev, Head of Gambling Products at Parimatch added: “We’ve been shifting toward being a more technology-focused company, broadening our horizons into the wider industry for some time and this deal is an extension of that drive.
“Relax’s technical excellence along with its variety of regionalised content has been a major highlight of our relationship so far, but I’m sure there are many more to come.”
Relax now offers its partners more than 1,500 online casino games, featuring headline slots from its in-house studios along with a vast collection of content aggregated through its Silver Bullet and Powered By Relax partnership programmes.
Recognised by the industry as a true driver of differentiation, Relax Gaming has won a host of awards for its approach, recently celebrating “Casino Content Supplier” at the 2021 EGR Awards in February, as well as “Casino Software Supplier” at last year’s EGR B2B 2020 Awards.

SoftConstruct unveils RecSys AI game recommendation system at AIBC Eurasia
In an iGaming Real Talk interview in Dubai, the firm says the tool reads player emotion and context to guide operator actions.
SoftConstruct AI has unveiled RecSys, an AI Game Recommendation System, during an exclusive iGaming Real Talk interview recorded at AIBC Eurasia in Dubai on Thursday 30th April.
Mushegh Khachatryan, Chief AI Officer at SoftConstruct AI, said RecSys is designed to move beyond traditional recommendation models by interpreting player emotions in real time and accounting for context, with the goal of suggesting “the next best action” for operators. “You can understand your customer’s emotions in real time and suggest the next best action. We are building intelligent systems which can reason and act.”
Khachatryan said SoftConstruct built an AI Center of Excellence by hiring talent from outside the iGaming sector, and described RecSys as part of “production-ready agentic AI” intended to support personalised campaigns and decision automation. Surya Palli, host of iGaming Real Talk, said: “SoftConstruct is essentially building a Netflix-style personalised experience for the iGaming industry, where every player gets a lobby made just for them.”
Responsible gaming was also discussed, with the company claiming AI can detect risky behaviour faster and more consistently than human teams, and recommend timely breaks while balancing player protection with sustainable growth.
Khachatryan also stressed the need for explainable, controlled deployment. “AI should help teams perform five times better rather than replace them… Without proper boundaries, short-term momentum boosts with AI can actually hurt your company in the long term.” The company said operators can manage campaigns, personalisation and risk through chat interfaces, with at least 85% accuracy “from the first interactions,” and directed viewers to the full interview on the iGaming Real Talk YouTube channel.
