Swintt expands global distribution through Kindred Group partnership
Innovative software developer teams up with leading online gaming brand to distribute some of the SwinttGames and SwinttPremium titles on MGA, SGA, KSA and later UKGC-licensed platforms
With a large number of new distribution deals added in Q2 2023, sought-after software provider, Swintt, has shown it has no intention of slowing down this month by partnering with Kindred Group to supply its games on the brand’s MGA, SGA, KSA and later UKGC-licensed platforms.
As a result of the company’s latest collaboration, a range of SwinttGames and SwinttPremium releases will be accessible to Kindred Group customers in Malta, Sweden and the Netherlands, with the United Kingdom to follow, thereby increasing the brand’s outreach in a number of key regulated iGaming markets.
With a player base of more than 1.5 million active customer] , Kindred Group – which counts Unibet, Maria Casino and 32Red among its best-known brands – is one of Europe’s leading iGaming operators and is also committed to responsible gambling and reducing the revenue derived from high-risk gamblers to zero.
As such, the group is the ideal partner for Swintt, who also share the same ideals of sustainable gambling and giving something back to the wider community – the latter of which was demonstrated by the company donating a portion of the revenue generated by its popular The Crown slot to charity.
While the two companies being ideologically aligned certainly makes for a match made in heaven, the good news from a player’s perspective is that the library of games hosted on Kindred Group platforms are now significantly bolstered by the presence of exciting titles from the Swintt line-up.
These include popular release from the SwinttGames range – a pioneering collection of games that boast engaging themes and innovative bonus features – such as the aforementioned The Crown, the incredibly successful Aloha Spirit XtraLockTM, Candy Gold and the recently launched hit, Electric Elements.
If classic slots that feature the aesthetics and gameplay of traditional land-based casino titles are more to players liking, however, they’ll also have their pick of titles from the SwinttPremium catalogue, with these including popular “Book” slots, Master of Books Unlimited and Seven Books Unlimited, as well as the recently-released Duolito Gardens. These Premium titles are very popular in the land-based gaming halls in the Netherlands, and this deal allows the Dutch players to play their favourite slots online.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “We’re excited to be teaming up with an operator with the player base and industry standing of Kindred Group and are looking forward to having the opportunity to showcase our titles on all of the brand’s MGA, SGA, KSA and soon UKGC-licensed platforms.
“By making SwinttGames and SwinttPremium releases available to such a wide cross-section of customers, we’ll be able to further raise the profile of our brand across Europe while helping Kindred Group on its ongoing mission to deliver a safe and enjoyable online experience to all casino players.”
Gareth Jennings, Head of RNG Casino at Kindred Group, said: “At Kindred Group, we always try to collaborate with software providers that share our vision and ideas for the online gambling industry while also providing a secure, first-class gambling experience to customers across our full range of platforms.
“In Swintt, we believe we’ve teamed up with a company that delivers on both of these fronts and we’re really looking forward to adding their innovative range of titles to our Malta, Sweden, UK and Netherlands-facing brands to give players an even”

Gamblers Connect names Gali Hartuv as seventh 2026 Contributors Program voice
The Playa strategic advisor will publish on VIP operations, segmentation and retention, starting with an anonymous VIP Operations Survey 2026.
Gamblers Connect has confirmed Gali Hartuv, Strategic Advisor at The Playa, as the seventh voice to join its 2026 Contributors Program.
The independent B2B iGaming media platform said the programme will reveal one senior industry voice per month throughout 2026, with contributors publishing under the Gamblers Connect Contributor Editorial Code.
Gamblers Connect said Hartuv has more than 15 years’ experience in VIP management, including designing and optimising VIP programmes across more than 50 operator brands, and training “hundreds of professionals” now working in VIP roles across the industry.
Hartuv will publish across four areas: building VIP programmes that drive long-term value; AI-powered VIP identification and player segmentation; hyper-personalisation and retention strategy; and scaling VIP operations across different markets and cultures. His first contribution is a VIP Operations Survey 2026, an anonymous survey intended to benchmark how VIP teams work across iGaming operators, including portfolio sizing, tools, qualification thresholds, workflow standards and where time is spent during the week.
Partnerships and Operations Lead, Luka Dimitrijevic, said: “VIP management is where a great deal of an operator’s value is won or lost, and very few people can speak to it with Gali’s depth. He has spent his career turning high value player relationships into a discipline rather than guesswork, and he is refreshingly candid about what works and what does not. Through the Contributors Program he will share practical insight on VIP strategy, retention, and the smart use of AI, with content grounded in real results rather than recycled best practices.”
