House of Spades Enters the iGaming Space like a Rock Star

Get set to Gamble with the Legends of Rock at cool new rock thematic online casino brand holding exclusive rights with rock icons
The global iGaming market continues to attract attention. In order to be successful, however, operators have to have an edge and brand loyalty. House of Spades has entered the mix as the latest online gaming platform to set its sights on the global stage. It’s not holding anything back, ready to rock gamblers like a hurricane.
House of Spades (HoS) has launched like a well-experienced rock star. Imagine combining luxury with a true rock vibe, well that’s what players get with the House of Spades experience. It brings you back to those true 70’s Rock n’ Roll days where everyone wanted to be “at the Roxy”. Every ounce of House of Spades feels like it’s built for VIPs looking to rock.
Rock’ n’ Roll plays such a large part in the platform’s design that HoS has attracted support from some of the biggest legends in the music business. Alice Cooper ‘the godfather of shock rock’ and Twisted Sister’s lead Dee Snider need no introduction to true rock fans, and both are brand ambassadors for the platform. Having these rock icons as part of the gang and face of the casino leads to exclusive marketing promotions, merchandise deals and branding opportunities not found anywhere else.
House of Spades offers an exclusive fan-to-game loyalty model that takes loyalty to a whole new level and which isn’t found on any other platform. This is a unique model that can be applied to other segments and cultural niches.
House of Spades CEO Pelle Wiman states, “House of Spades is more than just an online casino; it’s a high-class entertainment experience. We’re building a ‘fan-to-game bond’. We also access what-money-can’t-buy treats from our friends, our rock ambassadors and from some of the most legendary bands in the world.
So, with special welcome offers tailored for the fans, rare rock rewards directly from the bands and a cutting-edge product like no other, we are ready to rock the industry.”
Licensed in Malta and Curacao, HoS offers some wickedly awesome games from 90 gaming providers with over 4,000 unique online slots and casino games.
Driving home that rock n’ roll feel, HoS offers a game segment called “The Rock’ n’ Roll Hall of Games”, including Alice Cooper, ZZ Top, KISS, Twisted Sister slots. This is an extensive catalog of 15 top-quality Play’n GO-produced rock-themed games. A growing number of global rock artists and bands are signing up to produce their very own official slot games and House of Spades is in on all the action.
House of Spades offers an action-packed 36-level Achievement program that takes players on a House tour room by room in search for hidden artifacts and keys and rewards players with coins and cash prizes for each accomplished room.
The platform includes weekly challenges and tournaments, all uniquely developed to let it stand out from its competitors. It also boasts a special avatar program of fictional hotel guests and celebrity rock stars to choose from.
Adds Wiman, “The whole industry is based on short-term winnings. It’s a constant chase for the next game that will only be in the spotlight for a short second before they drown in the endless flood of generic slots, and casino brands come and go like pop-up stores. My ambition is to establish brands that align with the actual entertainment content they offer and achieve long term loyalty towards something more substantial than just bonuses and cash prices.”
The platform is live in Finland, Canada, Germany, Poland, New Zealand and Norway, and is looking at expansion throughout Latin America, Japan, India and other parts of the world this year. Because of its global reach, House of Spades readily accepts multiple currency types, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Litecoin.
House of Spades was put together by an accomplished team of industry insiders from companies such as Mr Green, Ninja Casino, Global Gaming, Cashmio and Metal Casino. On the team is also a veteran of the music industry who founded the Sweden Rock Festival.
As a result, what has emerged is a platform that knows how to wow the audience and keep players loyal and entertained – the same awesome experience rock legends give in front of their audiences.

Stats Perform Named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at EGR B2B Awards 2025

Stats Perform has been named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, in recognition of the strength, innovation, and global scale of its Bet LiveStreams platform for licensed sportsbook apps, websites and retail betting venues.
Bet LiveStreams, first launched as ‘Watch&Bet’ in 2005, now delivers more than 40,000 exclusive low-latency live events each year, across 15 sports. Football, the world’s largest betting sport, accounts for more than 15,000 matches, with rights including LaLiga, CONCACAF, English Football League and top domestic leagues and cups across Europe, South America, and APAC. Other sports include tennis, basketball, volleyball, darts, badminton, rugby and cricket.
Judges noted that Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams is unique because of its extensive year-long, round-the-clock coverage and high performance. In 2024, the platform securely delivered billions of live video sessions to hundreds of licensed global sportsbooks such as bet365, Betano, Superbet, Betfair, FanDuel and many more.
They also praised its interactive, built-for-betting features like betslip integration, instant highlights, and in-stream contextual stats (also known as Opta Interactive Overlays) that have made the watching and betting experience more engaging for bettors.
“Our focus with Bet LiveStreams has been to make live streams easy to watch and bettable, whoever is playing,” said Mike Perez, Chief Operating Officer at Stats Perform. “The features give bettors more entertainment from every stream, whether it’s a headline fixture like Tottenham v Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, or a six-goal thriller in South America that might otherwise have been overlooked. We’re delighted our efforts have been recognised with this award.”
The judging panel pointed to three standout recent Bet LiveStreams innovations:
- Opta Interactive Overlays: Live game and player stats and odds available directly in-stream, with bets added to the slip in one click
- Instant Highlights: Key moments can be replayed during the game to help bettors quickly catch up on relevant action, such as the moment their bet won, or see action they missed in other live games, with multi-game playlists across competitions
- Live Match Gallery: Easier discovery of concurrent events, helping bettors follow more matches and sports at the same time
Adoption of these features has been fast and operators have reported a 7x increase in interactions per session, longer watch times and more in-play bets placed.
“This award is a reflection of how far streaming can go when it’s built for betting, not just viewing. We’re excited to continue to integrate our Opta data and AI into the experience to make the future of streaming on sportsbooks more engaging, intuitive and bettable,” added Perez.

Spinomenal presents new slot: Queen of Oasis

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.
Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.
During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.
Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.
The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.
Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”
