Affilka by SOFTSWISS is experiencing further marketplace growth as it launches another new project – FizzSlots. FizzSlots is a fresh online casino brand which operates on the Curacao licence and is launching its own affiliate program FizzSlots Partners. By integrating with Affilka, FizzSlots Partners will take advantage of the SOFTSWISS solution’s built-in payment processing, interface customisation, as well as in-depth affiliate database management features.

Affilka expedites its growth – this year alone the brand signed over 25 brands and the number keeps increasing. Despite being a newcomer in affiliate marketing, this month Affilka bypassed the landmark of 100 iGaming brands.

This new partnership will grant FizzSlots Partners the possibility to work with Affilka’s flexible commissions constructor, providing highly customisable RevShare, CPA and Hybrid types of commissions.

The platform grants detailed statistics along with affiliate and player reports with advanced segmentation, filtering and data grouping. Statistics on registrations, deposits and income from players are updated once an hour in the partner’s personal account.

The project launched on May 17th, 2021. At the moment FizzSlots operates only on the Ukrainian market with plans to soon expand to a variety of different territories including India, Australia, New Zealand as well as Eastern Europe and the CIS.

The brand’s new affiliate program, FizzSlots Partners, was created with the intention to boost revenue through affiliate marketing and attract new players to the game at FizzSlots. After registration, affiliates are assigned with their own personal manager who helps configure the settings of the advertising campaign and postbacks.

Commenting on the new partnership, Anastasia Borovaya, Product Owner of Affilka by SOFTSWISS, said: “ Affilka continues to boost its presence in the iGaming industry and we’re glad to be launching this project with the new kid on the block, FizzSlots, who are surely similar to us in their constant strive for innovation and usability of their services.”

Alex Slavsky, CEO of FizzSlots, comments on the new partnership: “When creating FizzSlots Casino, we drew on our experience in the online gaming industry and pursued one simple goal – to make the most convenient and fastest online gaming solution. Our young and dynamic team always tries to use the best world practices and online solutions to ensure the maximum level of comfort when using our casino for both beginners and experienced players. So it’s super exciting for us to be partnering with Affilka to launch our brand-new affiliate program to increase revenue and connect with our players even more.”

Downtown Las Vegas show runs weekly at 9:10 p.m., with rooftop viewing options and planned Main Street traffic closures during launches.

Plaza Hotel & Casino will again stage its “Welcome to the Weekend” fireworks series in downtown Las Vegas every Friday night from June 5 to Sept. 4, launching at 9:10 p.m., according to the property.

The hotel said the free show is returning for a third consecutive year, with fireworks shot from the Plaza’s towers and visible across downtown and beyond. The Plaza also plans to close a portion of Main Street in front of the property to vehicle traffic during the shows to create pedestrian-only viewing access.

The Plaza will pair the fireworks with a rooftop pool party starting at 7 p.m., featuring food from the Plaza’s food truck and drinks from the rooftop pool bar. “Each year, the crowds only grow bigger for our free Welcome to the Weekend Summer Friday Fireworks Shows,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Our Friday fireworks have become an iconic part of summertime in Las Vegas that people look forward to. So, we are excited to bring the summer fireworks shows back again, for the third year, as a free and memorable experience for the whole community – visitors and residents alike.”

Each show will be initiated by a designated “TNT Ignitor,” which the Plaza said may include “a community leader, hotel guest, local hero, or social influencer.” The property is also selling a “TNT Ignitor VIP Experience” and a “Welcome to the Weekend VIP hotel package,” which include access and hospitality components tied to the rooftop viewing party.

The Plaza said the fireworks are weather-dependent and may be changed or cancelled, with updates posted to its social media channels including Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.
