Swintt partners with Paf to expand European presence
Major new deal sees sought-after slot provider join forces with iGaming giant to supply Premium and Select slots to players in key emerging markets
Having already made major in-roads with deals in Estonia and Latvia this year, Swintt has once again moved to bolster its presence in regulated European markets by striking a new partnership with a major operator Paf.
The latest collaboration between Swintt and a European betting brand will see the award-winning software provider supply titles from both its Premium and Select game catalogues to the popular online gaming site, with a key focus on players in the Nordics.
Undoubtedly one of the best-known brands in Scandinavia, Paf is a gambling operator based on Finland’s Åland Islands that is owned by the regional government. Each year, the company distributes around €20m in funds to support health, culture, education and sustainability projects in the region.
In addition to its community initiatives, Paf also provides a platform for players in a number of key iGaming markets to enjoy the very best slots, casino and poker games. This strong line-up of services will now be significantly bolstered by the presence of Swintt games, with the popular online gambling operator committed to rolling out the provider’s full range of 120+ titles as well as all future releases.
The news will naturally be welcomed by Paf players in a number of European countries, some of whom will be trying out Swintt’s innovative collection of slots for the very first time. Broken down into state-of-the-art Swintt Select releases and more traditional Swintt Premium Games, this exciting catalogue of titles saw the provider recognised as “Rising Star in Casino/Innovation” at the SBC Awards in 2021.
Some of the more famous releases in the Swintt Select line-up include Rock N Ways XtrawaysTM, which utilises a unique pay system to give players up to 262,144 ways to win, and Aloha Spirit XtralockTM, which debuted a revolutionary new jackpot system capable of awarding multipliers worth up to 200,500x.
Leading Premium Games, meanwhile, include the popular “Book Unlimited” range of slots – an immensely successful series that combines classic fruit machine-style graphics and sound with a rewarding Free Spins feature that includes expanding symbols and can be re-triggered again and again.
With Paf players having all that and more to look forward to on the site over the coming weeks, the new partnership promises to be a highly successful venture for platform and provider alike; enabling Swintt to continue its growth in Europe while Paf strengthens its position as a market-leading brand.
David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “Paf is undoubtedly one of the best-known brands in Scandinavia and the Baltic region, and we’re thrilled to be able to debut our full catalogue of slots on their platform. The new partnership will see Swintt significantly expand its presence in several key markets while giving Paf players the chance to take our award-winning games for a spin.”
Eric Castro , Head of Content, Casino & Games at Paf, said: “In the past two years, Swintt has established itself as one of the industry’s premium software providers and we’re delighted to welcome them on board. Hosting Swintt games will enable us to offer many new and exciting options to our players and further cement Paf’s reputation as being the place to play for the very best in quality entertainment.”

Esportes da Sorte has renewed its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition
Esportes da Sorte has renewed its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition.
The brand reinforces its strategy of promoting Brazilian culture after fostering an exchange between the North and Northeast regions during the Pernambuco Carnival.
Esportes da Sorte announced the renewal of its official sponsorship of the Parintins Folklore Festival for the 2026 edition.
Scheduled to take place from June 26 to 28, the event is part of the brand’s strategy to strengthen Brazilian cultural expressions and support the regional creative economy.
The continuation of the partnership follows a cycle of cultural integration promoted by the company over the past year.
In 2026, the group brought artistic references from the Parintins Festival to Recife Carnival by inviting Amazonian visual artist Iran Martins to design the brand’s parade float at Galo da Madrugada.
The project incorporated movement mechanisms and aesthetic elements inspired by the “bumbás” universe into the visual language of frevo.
Beyond brand exposure, the investment in Parintins is part of a positioning strategy focused on valuing Brazilian cultural identity and strengthening initiatives with strong regional ties.
“Our presence in Parintins goes beyond a branding action. It is a commitment to valuing Brazilian culture and the professionals who drive this creative ecosystem.
By bringing together references from the Parintins Festival and Recife Carnival, we show how different cultural expressions in the country can dialogue and create new connections.
We want to continue expanding this impact and contribute to keeping the bumbá tradition strong,” said Marcela Campos, Vice President of Grupo Esportes Gaming Brasil, owner of Esportes da Sorte.
Economic growth and new Bumbódromo
The Parintins Festival 2026 is expected to generate around R$193.2 million, a projected 5% increase compared to the previous edition. The forecast also includes approximately 30,000 direct and indirect jobs, as well as the arrival of around 126,000 tourists.
The audience will be welcomed in the new Bumbódromo, a structure with capacity for up to 25,000 people per day, which will become part of the festival’s expansion in the coming years.
Esportes da Sorte
Esportes da Sorte is one of Brazil’s leading sports betting platforms, with 100% national operations and a license granted by the Ministry of Finance (SPA/MF) to Esportes Gaming Brasil — the group that also owns the Onabet and Lottu brands.
The company is part of a Great Place to Work certified group and generates around 1,000 direct and indirect jobs. Its pillars include innovation, commitment to responsible gaming, and support for sector regulation.
It maintains strategic partnerships with institutions such as ANJL, IBIA, Sportradar, EBAC, and IAA, strengthening control practices, problem gambling prevention, and user protection.
In addition to sports betting, Esportes da Sorte invests consistently in sports, culture, and social projects. It is a master sponsor of clubs such as Corinthians, Ceará, Ferroviária, and Náutico, as well as supporting major cultural events like Galo da Madrugada, Carnival celebrations in cities such as Recife, Olinda, Salvador, Maceió, Natal, Caicó, Belo Horizonte, Rio de Janeiro, and São Paulo, and the Parintins Festival. The brand also expands its digital presence through creative campaigns and influencer partnerships, strengthening its connection with audiences across online platforms.
