Wazdan partners with Paf for greater Spanish presence
Wazdan, the innovative games provider, has strengthened its position in the Spanish market through a deal with Paf.es.
Paf has so far added Wazdan’s hugely successful 9 Burning Dragons™ to its lobby with plans to follow this up with top performers such as Larry the Leprechaun, Fortune Reels, 9 Lions, and Hot Slot™: 777 Crown.
The deal sees the studio continue its trajectory to provide greater value to its operator partners by developing eye-catching and highly-engaging slots titles. Through its strategy to combine proven concepts with innovative features, Wazdan delivers value-driven igaming experiences in regulated markets around the world.
This marks Wazdan’s second agreement with a Spanish operator, having entered the highly lucrative market via Luckia in November to great effect.
It is also the 6th market Wazdan has strengthened its position in via Paf. The Finnish company is owned by the government of Åland, with all of its revenue being used for health, cultural, educational and sustainability projects that benefit the society. Paf operates internationally with a notable presence in Finland, Sweden, Estonia, Latvia and Spain.
Commenting on the deal, Bekki D’Agata, Wazdan’s Commercial Director, said: “Paf is renowned in the industry as an operator that ensures its customers are getting the best experience possible and we’re delighted to partner with them.
“Our portfolio is packed with titles that players in Spain find refreshing and engaging, and we look forward to working together with Paf to further enhance our content’s reach in the country.”
Eric Castro Head of Games Content at Paf said: “Wazdan is an incredibly exciting developer that consistently produces dynamic games with innovative features and solid maths models.
“We’re deeply intrigued to see more of their games added to our casino and look forward to seeing more from their ambitious roadmap.”

Groove says its casino content library passes 20,000 games
Groove says it has passed 20,000 titles in its aggregated casino content library, delivered to partners via “one API” and managed through its Groove Command back office.
The company said the catalogue includes slots, instant win games, table games, crash games, live dealer and arcade-style titles, plus “emerging verticals including sweepstakes and crypto-native content.” Groove added that the portfolio is now live and available to its partners worldwide.
Rachel Tourgeman, Head of Partnerships at Groove, said the company focuses on curation rather than chasing volume: “Twenty thousand games is a number. What matters is what sits behind it…” Says Tourgeman. “We don’t add studios for the sake of volume. We add them because they bring something distinctive: a mechanical innovation, a visual language, a player-engagement hook that our operators can’t get elsewhere. Our partners trust us to curate, not just collect. That trust is why we keep growing, and why the quality curve keeps rising alongside the quantity curve.”
Groove said recent integrations include KingMidas Games (150+ mobile-first titles), Urgent Games and Bryogames, which it described as offering “proprietary mathematics with real-time RTP customisation.” The company said the additions were assessed for technical compatibility and “commercial distinctiveness.”
Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, positioned the milestone as part of a broader platform pitch: “The aggregation space is crowded with platforms that offer ‘access’ and little else,” said Meltzer. “Twenty thousand games through a single API is not just scale. It is a statement. It says that Groove has become the default engine for operators who want to move fast, compete smart, and never compromise on content depth. But we are not stopping here. The next 20,000 will be even more selective, more integrated, and more aligned with where player behaviour is heading. Volume without curation is noise. We are building a signal.”
