Gaming Innovation Group signs new deal with Starcasino in Spain
Gaming Innovation Group Inc. (GiG) continues to strengthen its presence in the Spanish iGaming market following the signing of an agreement with Starcasino Group for its leading platform and sportsbook.
This new alliance, the 14th now in operation for GiG technology in Spain, will allow Starcasino to enter the large and highly competitive Spanish market. Having secured both sports and casino licenses in the jurisdiction, Starcasino will take advantage of GiG’s unique experience and presence in the country. Indeed, the online Spanish market generates more than €800 million of GGR on a yearly basis, with casino and sports representing 90% of that figure.
Starcasino is one of the largest regulated online and landbased casino groups in Belgium, and carries with it a strong reputation at driving personalised experiences for casino players.
The agreement which has been signed for an initial period of 3 years will look to harness the capabilities of both GiG’s sportsbook and player account manager (PAM), which are focused on delivering excellent localised and personal casino journeys and strong sports margins in competitive and regulated markets.
Hervé Schlosser, Managing Director of Sportnco Gaming at GiG, said “I am really pleased to have signed this partnership with Starcasino, to power their entry into the appealing Spanish market. I am convinced that our combined sportsbook, platform technology and regulatory experience is well suited to help established operators like Starcasino power into new regulated markets.”
Alejandro Casanova, Country Manager for Starcasino Spain said: “We feel very pleased to have reached an agreement with the GIG Group. After many years of work and success in Belgium we have initiated our expansion to other markets, in Spain we have selected GIG Group’s technologies to successfully face the challenges of this market.”

EGT installs PH 50 V AWP cabinets at Hi Five Casino in the Netherlands
The Berg en Dal venue adds single-screen AWP units supplied with EGT’s Bonus Prize Collection multigame.
EGT has expanded its footprint in the Dutch AWP market with a new installation at Hi Five Casino in Berg en Dal. The venue has added PH 50 V AWP cabinets supplied with the Bonus Prize Collection multigame.
According to EGT, this is its first installation of single-screen AWP cabinets in the Netherlands. Yuliana Ilieva, Director of EGT Netherlands, said: “This is the first time we have installed single-screen AWP cabinets in the country. The operator, as well as the players, are impressed by the aesthetics and overall design of the cabinets, perfectly blending eye-catching outlook and maximum comfort. The combination with titles such as Mighty Sparta and Amazons’ Battle is a guarantee of a captivating gaming experience, and the results shown so far are eloquent proof. I am confident that we will see more installations of these products very soon.”
The PH 50 V AWP cabinet is powered by EGT’s Exciter IV platform and features a 50-inch vertical monitor, ergonomic functions, and enhanced video and audio capabilities, the company said. Bonus Prize Collection includes 10 games and features including Cash Heat, Epic Cash, Prize Multipliers, and Wild bonuses.
Micha van Bochem from Casino Hi Five said the machines have been live for a month. “EGT’s new cabinet for the Dutch market has been a big hit so far. The machines have been running for a month now and are being enthusiastically received by players. They look beautiful and innovative, with a large screen—and hopefully, in the future, with games that feature expanding reels —that would be absolutely fantastic on such an elegant cabinet. So far, it’s been nothing but positive, and we’re looking forward to the future.”

Octoplay builds lifetime-exclusive slot for Midnite in the UK
Midnite Express is the first bespoke title under the pair’s July 2025 partnership and adapts mechanics from Fire Rail Express: Hold And Win.
Octoplay has launched Midnite Express, a lifetime-exclusive branded slot built for UK operator Midnite. The title is the first custom product released under the companies’ partnership, which went live in July 2025.
Midnite Express is based on the game mechanics behind Fire Rail Express: Hold And Win, which Octoplay says is among its strongest-performing titles in the US. The supplier points to the EILERS-FANTINI Online Game Performance report, where it says the game has held a top-three position in the “New Top Game Ranks – Slots” category for three consecutive months.
“Midnite Express is the first custom product we’ve built for Midnite, and it’s a meaningful step in how this partnership is developing,” says Ralitsa Georgieva, CEO at Octoplay. “A year on from our initial launch, we’re moving from portfolio integration to co-developed content built specifically for their players. Adapting the mechanics behind one of our top-performing US titles for the UK with Midnite reflects how we work with operators who want more than off-the-shelf content.”
Chelsea Pinho, Head of Casino at Midnite adds: “Octoplay has been a strong content partner since we went live together last year, and Midnite Express is the result of a collaboration grounded in shared ambition. Having a lifetime exclusive title based on proven mechanics gives us a product we can put behind with confidence.”
The launch follows a run of UK integrations for Octoplay, including a recent go-live with Bally’s Intralot, and earlier integrations with Evoke’s 888 and Mr Green brands, Virgin Bet, and LiveScore Bet. Octoplay says it is now live in 18 regulated markets, including the UK, Malta, Romania, Croatia, Sweden, Slovakia, Italy, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Greece, Spain, Finland, Georgia, Brazil, New Jersey, Michigan, and Ontario.
