Swintt strengthens Estonian market presence with Olybet partnership
New deal sees award-winning software providers’ full catalogue of Premium and Select slots go live at Baltic betting giant
Having previously announced plans to significantly expand its European online presence in 2022, decorated slot software provider, Swintt, has once again delivered on that promise by unveiling an all-new partnership deal with famous Baltic online casino brand, Olybet.
The latest collaborative effort from the popular game studio will see Swintt launch its entire range of Premium and Select slots at Olybet, meaning Estonian players will get to discover first-hand just how the company came to be named “Rising Star in Casino Innovation/Software” at the SBC awards 2021.
With over 120 top titles for them to choose from, players will be able to enjoy state-of-the-art Swintt Select slots such as the swashbuckling Book of the East, the recently released Viking Honour and Hawaiian adventure Aloha Spirit XtraLock – which is the first title in the innovative software provider’s growing portfolio to offer the patented XtraLock bonus feature.
Fans of more traditional slots, meanwhile, will certainly have a blast discovering the Swintt Premium collection – an exciting range of games that combines the iconic symbols and themes of classic land-based machines with modern bonus features. Recent hits in the Premium catalogue include popular prize wheel slot, Extra Win X, and the latest chapter in the iconic “Book” series, Seven Books Unlimited.
First established in 2010, Olybet has recently become better known for its sports betting offering, with the brand striking up a number of notable partnerships with the NHL, Serie A side Fiorentina and Lithuania’s most-decorated basketball club, Žalgris Kaunas. However, the Swintt deal will strengthen the casino side of the business and ensure Olybet remains a go-to destination for market-leading slots.
With Swintt providing such a significant expansion to Olybet’s current range of games and Olybet in turn giving Swintt the platform to further establish their Estonian market presence, the deal looks to be a win-win for both parties – and both are clearly looking forward to a long and fruitful partnership.
David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “At Swintt, we’re always looking for opportunities to expand our European footprint – and with Estonia being one of the biggest emerging markets in the continent, we’re delighted that our games will now be available at Olybet.
“Olybet is undoubtedly one of the Baltics’ oldest and most respected online casino and betting operators and by partnering with them, we’ll be able to bring our award-winning collection of Premium and Select slots to Estonian-based players at a brand they know they can trust.”
Tomas Graham, Chief Performance Officer at Olybet, said: “At Olybet, we’ve always prided ourselves on offering a diverse selection of slots from some of the biggest names in gaming. Our partnership with Swintt represents a significant expansion to our current slot offering and we’re very happy to be teaming up with a top-quality provider that’s rightfully been recognised as one of the rising stars of the industry.”

iDenfy Partners with Confindo to Enhance Security and Prevent Loan Fraud
iDenfy, an AI-powered identity verification, compliance and fraud prevention solutions provider, has partnered with Confindo, a leading provider of IT solutions specialising in customer relationship management (CRM) tools for group companies and external partners. This collaboration will help Confindo manage third-party risks and ensure proper fraud and breach prevention while building a seamless and secure verification experience.
The rise in digital transactions has made robust security measures more critical than ever. With security challenges like forged documents and synthetic identities, particularly in the financial and lending sectors, companies increasingly seek advanced solutions to protect their customers. Spending on information security and risk management products and services is expected to grow by 14.3% this year, reaching more than $215 billion. However, many companies operating in the financial sector see fraud as a top priority on the list, where even a single breach can have significant legal and reputational consequences.
Confindo, a dominant player in the consumer lending market since 2018, recognised the importance of securing its platforms against potential threats. Brands under the “Confindo” name, like Lenders, Bancovo, Comparar Prestamos mainly serve as intermediaries for consumer lending services. Consequently, the business is best known for representing over 20 banks and creditors in Lithuania and processing more than 10,000 inquiries monthly. As the business experienced a high volume of requests and new registrations, it required a new trusted Know Your Customer (KYC) vendor to help safeguard its operations, especially in this expansion stage across Europe.
According to Confindo, its recent operations in Latvia and upcoming launches in two new markets also showed a need for extra automation measures in its customer onboarding process. Before partnering with iDenfy, the IT and financial service provider aimed to build a conversion-optimised verification workflow that could remove the hassle around the application onboarding process. Among several identity verification providers, Confindo selected iDenfy for its reliable and efficient identification verification solution. The new software, already trusted by other platforms under Confindo’s management, stood out for its smooth integration with existing systems and provided a comprehensive global document base for more efficient scaling into new markets.
iDenfy’s ID verification solution is designed to automatically recognise, verify and extract information from over 3000 identity documents across 200 countries and territories. This comprehensive approach helps Confindo ensure that all possible safety measures are in place to prevent fraudulent loans, a key concern in the rapidly growing consumer lending sector.
It is worth mentioning that iDenfy is ranked as the top 1 identity verification solution in customer satisfaction on G2, boasting an average of 4.9 stars and over 70 reviews in 2024. This recognition underscores iDenfy’s commitment to providing high-quality, reliable services and prioritizes online user identification security.
“We chose iDenfy because their solution is not only trusted and tested but also perfectly aligns with our commitment to ensuring the highest level of security for our customers,” said Eitautas Bartuškevičius, CEO of Confindo.
Domantas Ciulde, CEO of iDenfy, said: “We’re thrilled to collaborate with Confindo in their mission to enhance security within the consumer lending space. By integrating our ID verification solution, we’re helping them create a safer, more reliable platform for their users across multiple countries.”
