Playson Introduces Hold for Spin: A Slot-Changer User Experience
Designed to Elevate User Engagement and Deliver Speedier Gameplay
Leading the charge in digital entertainment innovations, Playson proudly announces the unveiling of its latest feature, Hold for Spin. Designed to empower players with enhanced control and faster gameplay, this addition marks a new era in slots experience.
The novel feature springs to life when players maintain pressure on the spin button, reminiscent of the autoplay mode. Upon release, the gameplay reverts to its original pace. This dynamic allows players to be in the driver’s seat, determining when to accelerate or decelerate the game, especially when specific game events unfold. Notably, it gives players the chance to swiftly access the game’s primary features, essentially reducing the spin’s pace leading to bonus mode activation.
This new UX enhancement showcases two game speed modes: Quick Spin – a familiar feature, which ensures a balanced gameplay speed; and Turbo Spin, which captures the essence of rapid RNG server reactions. This mode is all about reaching those coveted bonuses in record time, focusing only on the rewarding game results. Turbo Spin sessions present compelling statistics: the average sum of bets escalates by 65%, and the average bet typically increases by 7% for players engaging with this feature.
The new feature is already available within Playson’s most recent game releases across a variety of regulated markets, and initial data demonstrates the positive effect the functionality is having on driving increased engagement.
Playson committed to introducing Hold for Spin to all upcoming game releases. Additionally, the company is enhancing its existing top game portfolio with this innovative functionality, making it available in eligible markets.
Nataliia Shkarbanova, PO at Playson, said: “Hold for Spin is not just a feature; it’s one of the key steps to refine the Playson experience. Catering to the needs of players who seek more control over the gameplay, we’ve developed a responsible solution that aligns with their preferences.
“From an operator’s standpoint, the rise in wager amounts and bet sizes due to Turbo Spin is lucrative, even if these sessions are briefer. Playson’s commitment to adapting to market shifts is evident with this launch, and we remain optimistic about its performance in the forthcoming months.”

Vegangster Gives Operators Real-Time Jackpot Control and a New Revenue Stream with Sharedluck’s JackpotX
Platform provider Vegangster has completed the integration of JackpotX, a flexible jackpot engine developed by Sharedluck, giving operators a new way to run scalable jackpot campaigns across brands and game catalogues. The integration focuses on player-contribution jackpots, creating an additional revenue stream for operators.
JackpotX provides more granular control than traditional jackpot tools. Operators can configure several jackpot tiers, define custom triggers, and adjust campaign parameters in real time without downtime. This makes it easier to launch targeted campaigns quickly and align jackpots with specific retention or promotional objectives.
With the integration, Vegangster clients can manage jackpots directly inside their existing back office. Campaigns can be linked to selected brands, game groups, or specific player cohorts, with real-time performance insights available through Sharedluck’s dashboards. This helps teams monitor engagement, track contribution levels, and optimise campaigns while they are Running.
For players, jackpot values update in real time across all touchpoints, including lobby displays, game interfaces, and promotional banners, creating visible momentum as prizes grow. This transparency drives catalogue exploration and extends session time, giving operators a practical tool for supporting both short-term promotional bursts and longer-term engagement Strategies.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, said:
“Jackpots remain one of the clearest levers for engagement in online casinos. Sharedluck built an engine that offers operators the level of precision and flexibility they expect from modern tools. With JackpotX inside Vegangster, teams can run customised jackpot campaigns at the speed their operations require.”
The partnership brings Sharedluck’s jackpot engine directly into Vegangster’s ecosystem, giving operators a straightforward way to deploy contribution-based jackpots and track performance through real-time analytics.
Chris Scicluna, Co-Founder at Sharedluck, said:
“We are excited to bring JackpotX to Vegangster operators. In successful campaigns, we have seen higher retention, longer session times, stronger conversion from casual to regular play, and clear uplift in VIP-focused promotions. We look forward to seeing Vegangster clients achieve similar results.”
The integration is now available for all Vegangster operators. Existing clients can enable JackpotX through their account manager, with configuration handled inside the Vegangster back office and supported by Sharedluck’s analytics dashboards. New operators can access the module during onboarding as part of their standard setup process.
Operators can get a closer look at JackpotX at ICE Barcelona, Fira Barcelona Gran Via, 19–21 January 2026, with live demos available at stand 1E20.
