Software provider’s live casino product sails through information security best practice tests in independent assessment

Having already set the gold standard for its information security management systems back in February 2020, up-and-coming software provider Stakelogic has announced that its Stakelogic Live product has now also received ISO 27001 accreditation.

In order to receive the prestigious endorsement, Stakelogic Live was subjected to a series of rigorous tests to determine the robustness of its data protection procedures. Conducted by an expert third-party auditor, the in-depth review found these practices to be of the highest security standards set by the International Organisation for Standardisation and the International Electrotechnical Commission.

The award of ISO 27001 accreditation to Stakelogic Live means that both operators who host the company’s live casino games and the players who play them can do so knowing that the information security management systems that underpin them are among the safest in the online gaming industry.

Furthermore, the award of ISO 27001 accreditation also carries a lot of sway with online regulators, who deem it to be an indication of a company going above and beyond the mandatory GDPR protocols. This in turn helps brands like Stakelogic Live build further trust in the industry, potentially paving the way for them to extend their reach and obtain supplier licenses for other regulated markets in the future.

The news naturally comes as another feather in the cap for the company, which has consistently established itself as one of the world’s most reputable and responsible online casino game developers since its launch in 2017. With Stakelogic Live now able to proudly display the coveted ISO 27001 certificate on its products, the team are clearly delighted their efforts have been formally recognized.

Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO of Stakelogic, said: “With Stakelogic having received ISO 27001 accreditation two years ago, we’re delighted that our live casino product, Stakelogic Live, has now officially been able to follow suit.

“While we’re proud of the achievement, the accreditation came as no real surprise to anyone here at Stakelogic, as it simply formalized the outstanding data management policies and procedures that we’ve had in place for some time. That said, we’re very happy we can now display an independent endorsement on our games that will provide operators and players with even greater peace of mind.”

Slotsoo Awards 2025: Celebrating Excellence Across Casinos and Game Providers

Summer is here and it is time for Slotsoo’s signature celebration of the iGaming industry. The Slotsoo Casino Awards return for its third edition, continuing the tradition of highlighting operators who excel in delivering a top-tier player experience. This year also marks an exciting expansion with the inaugural Slotsoo Game Provider Awards, giving long-overdue recognition to the creators of great slots.

The New Game Provider Awards and the Winners

Game providers are sometimes overshadowed by casinos, but in reality, both are equally important to the online casino experience. That’s why Slotsoo is proud to shine a spotlight on the studios behind the reels. The winners of Slotsoo’s first provider-focused awards were announced on 24 July 2025, and the honors went to:

  • The Machine MVP – Pragmatic Play
  • Bonus Buyer – Bullshark Games
  • Volatility Virtuoso – Wazdan
  • Jackpot Jumbo – Mancala Gaming
  • Symphony Spinner – Gamzix
  • Reel Renegade – Nolimit City
  • Promising Prodigy – Slammer Studios

Please visit the Slotsoo Game Provider Awards page for detailed descriptions of each trophy and the motivations behind the winners.

The Anatomy of Slotsoo’s Trophies: Where Fun Meets Serious Recognition

At Slotsoo, each trophy is whimsical by design but grounded in real player values, making the Slotsoo Awards both entertaining and insightful. Every category has a clear purpose, recognizing what truly matters in iGaming today.

At the core of each awards lineup is a main trophy: The Gambling GOAT honors the top-performing casino operator, while The Machine MVP celebrates the best overall game provider. Surrounding these main awards are a collection of supporting trophies, spotlighting specific areas of excellence, from fast withdrawals and fun bonuses to volatility and winning potential.

These award categories offer a chance for actors who crush it in a certain area to be recognized, even if they don’t dominate across the board. Just like other iGaming awards, Slotsoo includes a category for newcomers, encouraging fresh talent and pushing established names to keep innovating.

The timing of the awards is also a deliberate choice. Markus Björk, head writer at Slotsoo, explains the team’s reasoning:

“After a hectic Winter and Spring packed with iGaming events, June and July offer a rare chance for the industry to slow down and reflect on the year so far. Let’s enjoy the cucumber season and appreciate what’s been achieved. This is when you can harvest the rewards of your hard work before autumn arrives with new challenges and opportunities.”

The Winning Casino Operators 2025

The Slotsoo Casino Awards 2025 took place in June, and these were the seven winners:

  • The Gambling GOAT – Betizy
  • The Bonus Buff – Sugarino
  • The Loyalty Lord – Wisho
  • The Withdrawal Wizard – Vauhdikas
  • The Gamification Guru – Arctic Casino
  • The Payout Professor – Wolfy Casino
  • The Noisy Newcomer – Lunar Spins

This was the third time Slotsoo held the casino awards for its English-language site targeting the EU market in general. During the same period, the dedicated awards for the Finnish market, Slotsoo Kasinogaala 2025, celebrated its second year. These awards consist of seven trophies equivalent to the English ones, plus an eighth trophy dedicated to the casino operator with the best slot streaming offering.

The Nordic country is undergoing big changes, with a new gambling legislation and a licensing system planned to be introduced by 1 January 2027. The future will tell how this will affect the structure and categories of the awards.
