Swintt games soon available at Spins.lv
Sought-after software provider expands Baltic footprint by unveiling its full catalogue of Select and Premium releases at popular Latvian-facing online casino platform
Having previously entered the Latvian online casino market through ground-breaking partnerships with casino operators, popular software developer, Swintt, has announced that it will be further strengthening its presence in the region by partnering with Spins.lv.
As part of the new collaboration, the Baltic platform will make Swintt’s entire collection of Select and Premium releases available to customers, giving them the chance to experience the unique themes and innovative features that have established the studio as one of the industry’s most exciting brands.
Dealing with both game catalogues in order, Spins.lv’s Latvian players will now be able to access a rich and varied collection of state-of-the-art slots from the Swintt Select range. These include the branded, heist movie-inspired The Crown starring Vinnie Jones, the genre-breaking mobile release Candy Gold and the provider’s most successful XtraTM series launch to date, Aloha Spirit XtraLockTM.
Of course, the timing of the partnership also means that Spins.lv customers will be among the first to enjoy the many exciting new Select releases that are being pushed by the studio this year, with the upcoming cluster pays slot, Electric Elements, set to deliver a unique gameplay experience that includes four rewarding reel modifiers and an option for users to directly enter the Free Spins feature.
Alongside these pioneering Select releases, Spins.lv players who prefer the classic design and straightforward gameplay of land-based slots will also be well catered for courtesy of Swintt’s expansive library of Premium releases. With these games including recognisable symbols, classic audio and a range of enticing bonus rounds, they’ll provide the perfect option for any slot purists out there.
Popular games from the Swintt Premium collection to feature at Spins.lv will include a number of entries from the studio’s hugely successful “Book” series such as Master of Books Unlimited and Seven Books Unlimited, as well as the upcoming Secret Spellbook Respin – which not only offers Free Spins with an expanding mystery symbol, but also a re-spin feature that makes triggering the bonus easier.
With all this and more set to be rolled out at Spins.lv over the coming weeks, the new deal will serve to further strengthen Swintt’s relationship with its Latvian customers while simultaneously helping the platform cement its position as one of the top online casino brands available in the Baltic region.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “Solidifying Swintt’s presence in the Latvian market, we’re delighted to be teaming up with one of the region’s premium online casino brands to enhance the range of top-quality titles they’re currently able to offer to customers. With games from both our Select and Premium line-ups now available on the platform, we look forward to strengthening our brand’s relationship with Latvian players by offering them the range of unique themes and innovative bonus features that have become such a hallmark of the Swintt brand.”
Arturs Sarma, Chief Executive Officer at Spins.lv, said: “Through partnering with the industry’s leading software suppliers, Spins.lv has been able to establish itself as one of the leading online casino platforms in Latvia, so we’re obviously thrilled to strengthen this position by teaming up with Swintt. In a relatively short space of time, the studio’s diverse game selection and ground-breaking features have established it as one of the most in-demand developers in the iGaming industry, and we’re sure both Swintt Select and Swintt Premium releases will prove hugely popular additions with our players.”

The Lithuanian Gaming Control Authority (LPT) has completed its inspection: Olympic Casino has been fined almost 8.4 million euros

The company Olympic Casino Group Baltija (OCGB) did not take sufficient steps to identify the origin of Šarūnas Stepukonis’ losing funds, and the monitoring of his financial transactions was only formal and ineffective. Such violations were identified by the Gaming Supervisory Authority, which conducted an inspection of OCGB’s activities in Lithuania. The company was fined almost 8.4 million euros.
The Gaming Supervisory Authority (LPT) investigated the actions taken by OCGB in response to Š. Stepukonis’ transactions on the company’s gaming website from December 2016 to the end of June 2021. The law obliges gaming operators to ensure that customer funds are not obtained from criminal activities or through participation in such activities. It is also mandatory to verify the origin of the funds. LPT found that the measures applied by OCGB were poor and insufficient, and the monitoring of Š. Stepukonis’ transactions was formal.
Gambling organizers must report suspicious transactions to the FNTT. Š. Stepukonis’ transactions had obvious signs that should have raised suspicions for the gambling organizer. However, the FNTT was not informed about this.
During the inspection, evidence was also collected that Š. Stepukonis’ gambling was irresponsible. The gambling company should have noticed this, especially since the client was assigned a personal manager who saw all of his transactions.
“Instead of finding out whether Š. Stepukonis had a gambling problem or informing the supervisory authority, Olympic Casino encouraged him to gamble even more. An individual incentive package was prepared for him. A total of 1.3 million euros was allocated for this. This “bonus” could only be spent on gambling. Other incentives were also allocated,” – comments on the results of the inspection by LPT Director Virginijus Daukšys.
Since mid-2021, gambling companies in Lithuania have no longer been allowed to offer incentives to their customers that they would later lose. Just before this tightening came into effect, Š. Stepukonis’ virtual gambling was moved from Lithuania to Estonia, where it was still allowed to encourage gamblers.
In this way, it was possible not only to maintain incentives for gambling, but also to avoid supervision by the LPT. If an ordinary gambler from Lithuania tried to go and register on the Estonian Olympic Casino website, he would be redirected to the Lithuanian website. However, in the case of Š. Stepukonis, the redirection was not carried out. These circumstances are part of the pre-trial investigation.
During the inspection, a total of five violations of the provisions of the Law on the Prevention of Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism and the Law on Gambling were identified.
The law allows for a fine of up to twice the amount of damage caused. The damage was determined to be 6.4 million euros – the amount Š. Stepukonis lost at the Olympic Casino in Lithuania. When calculating the fine, an aggravating circumstance was taken into account – the company did not cooperate during the inspection.
According to V. Daukšys, after this story came to light, steps were taken to prevent similar cases from recurring. The most important change is the law, proposed by the LPT, which obliges gambling companies to take action upon noticing irresponsible gambling and to provide information about it to the LPT.
“Until now, there was no such obligation. Therefore, the LPT did not have information that would allow it to take preventive actions in advance,” says V. Daukšys.
The new Gambling Law will come into force in November this year. Its aim is to reduce the accessibility, attractiveness and potential harm to personal health of gambling.
LPT also reviewed its procedures, adjusted internal procedures, allowing for more frequent scheduled inspections of the activities of gambling companies. In addition, the Ministry of Finance conducted an audit of LPT’s activities. No significant operational deficiencies were identified during the audit. LPT took into account the audit recommendations and allocated more human resources to money laundering prevention functions.
