TMA Partners with SlotCatalog for a More Powerful, Metadata-Driven Personalization Feature
The Mill Adventure (TMA) shows no signs of slowing down when it comes to building the future of personalization in iGaming. Through a partnership with SlotCatalog, TMA has upgraded their AI-driven SmartLobbies feature with enhanced metadata and game tags. Read on to find out why metadata matters for successful personalization and how casino managers can use game tags to create unique lobbies in an instant, as well as themed tournaments!
Deliver more meaningful game recommendations
Content that is not just curated meaningfully but also accurately resonates with players’ unique interests can contribute to higher player engagement and greater loyalty. However, any effort towards personalization can fall short without the right metadata. That is why for their latest SmartLobbies update, TMA found the perfect partner in SlotCatalog, one of the leading platforms for iGaming information catering to players, casino operators, and game developers. SlotCatalog’s database features over 20,000 games and around 1000 unique tags which act as, simply put, a filtering system for specific games. TMA harnesses this rich resource to improve the quality of metadata in their internal game catalog. Optimized metadata and game tags mean increased relevance and higher accuracy for TMA’s machine learning-powered recommendation engine — the same way popular streaming platforms personalize their content.
Get creative with game tags
TMA also introduces the use of game tags as a new, effortless way of creating unique casino lobbies using their SmartLobbies feature. Using the new function, casino managers can easily choose from an extensive list of game tags, from colors and characters to genres and themes. In just a few clicks, any online casino can have a lobby featuring all games that fall under the tags selected. Think of all the creative campaigns and promotions possible such as Valentine’s Day lobby for February that can instantly be created just by selecting the tags “love” or “heart”! As always, TMA’s AI models personalize every lobby created, making sure players are presented only with the most relevant content.
Similarly, TMA’s tournament tool features the use of tags. Now, online casinos can execute their creative ideas for themed tournaments throughout the year just by selecting relevant tags, from New Year to the holidays — all without any additional effort. Furthermore, online casinos can choose a personalized ranking for their tournaments. With this option, tournament games are presented in an order that is most relevant and compelling for the players — according to data such as games they engage with the most.
Fed Havlovskyi, Co-founder & Executive Manager of SlotCatalog, shares about the collaboration, “SlotCatalog is a leading affiliate site with the biggest database of casino games. We are happy to share our data with modern and innovative platform developer The Mill Adventure, and glad to share a common vision and belief in the importance of a data-driven approach. I am sure that this data partnership will bring substantial benefits for both companies and help us build even more unique services for our customers and players.”
Bjørnar Heggernes, Head of Gaming at The Mill Adventure, adds, “With SmartLobbies, our team is always working on pushing the limits of personalization. Through our partnership with SlotCatalog, we are able to take advantage of quality data for our clients and partners to create a variety of unique lobbies, and at the same time, offer players more relevant content.”

Midnite signs as Middlesbrough FC principal partner for 2026/27 season
Midnite has agreed a partnership with Middlesbrough FC that will see the UK bookmaker become the club’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026/27 campaign, which Middlesbrough describes as its landmark 150th season.
The companies announced the deal alongside a fan activation at Riverside Stadium on Thursday, July 9, branded “This Season’s On Us”. The initiative offered supporters prizes including 2026/27 season tickets, 2026/27 shirts, match tickets, or a £25 club shop voucher, with fans required to answer Middlesbrough trivia and complete a football challenge.
Middlesbrough former players Craig Hignett and David Wheater attended the event, and, according to the company, took bonus attempts on behalf of participants who missed out.
Andrew Mook, Midnite’s Head of Brand Marketing, said:
“Middlesbrough have a storied history and we’re delighted to announce this partnership during such a monumental year with the club celebrating their 150th anniversary.
“It was great to see so many Middlesbrough fans at the “This Season’s On Us” activation, we hope they enjoyed taking part and meeting club legends, with David Wheater hitting top bins on several occasions and allowing fans to win big with season tickets.
“We can’t wait to get to Riverside Stadium in August to kick-off a new season and we’re excited to say that we have plenty of new and captivating campaigns planned.”
Lee Fryett, Middlesbrough FC Chief Commercial Officer, added:
“We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our new Principal Partner.
“We’re looking forward to working closely with Midnite to develop engaging campaigns, content and unique experiences that bring our fans even closer to the club.
“We’re confident this partnership will provide real value for our supporters while supporting our ambitions both on and off the pitch.”

ThrillTech secures AGCO supplier licence for Ontario launch
ThrillTech has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to launch in Ontario’s regulated market.
The licence allows ThrillTech to deploy its opt-in side bet jackpots technology with regulated online casino, sports betting and lottery operators across the province.
Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets. This latest certification is testament to our robust technology and trusted compliance frameworks, allowing us to continue our global growth trajectory. We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”
The company said its “ThrillPots” mechanics sit as an independent, player-funded side bet and do not alter the underlying game’s return-to-player mathematics.
ThrillTech said the Ontario approval enables its existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to launch its side bet jackpots locally, while it also holds talks with potential new operator partners. The company lists its regulated footprint as including the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil and Peru.
