Stakelogic integrates casino and live titles with Casino Elite in Belgium
Deal adds Dice Slots, Auto Roulette and the Super Wheel
Game Show to the Belgian operator’s online platform.
Stakelogic has signed a content partnership with Casino Elite in Belgium, with the supplier’s games now available to the operator via a direct integration.
Under the agreement, Casino Elite will roll out a tailored selection of Stakelogic content, including Dice Slots titles Abra-Ca-Dice, Dice Fortune and Dice on Fire, plus Auto Roulette. The package also includes live entertainment game shows such as the Super Wheel
Game Show, featuring five bonus rounds including Vegas Drops and Risky 100.
Casino Elite opened a gaming hall in Quiévrain in early 2024 and launched its online platform later that year. The operator said its roots trace back to The Flamingo, which it said established the first licensed gaming hall in Jurbise, and that its online platform hosts more than 700 games.
Jolene Magri, Account Manager at Stakelogic, said: “This partnership is a strong example of the range we can bring to operators today. Casino Elite wanted a rollout that felt dynamic and differentiated, and this mix delivers just that. It gives the brand a broader content proposition with plenty of variety for players; while also reflecting the flexibility we can bring to different markets and operator strategies.”
Pierre Decourt, Marketing Director at Casino Elite added: “Our focus is on creating an experience that feels modern, accessible and varied, while still staying true to the roots of gaming in Belgium. The rollout with Stakelogic is a strong fit for that vision, bringing players a broad mix of distinctive formats, from dice-led titles through to casino and live game show entertainment.”
