Stakelogic and Stakelogic Live Launch Industry First Super Wheel™ as an Early-Release with Unibet
Stakelogic and Stakelogic Live combine slot gameplay with live casino action with the early release of the industry’s first Super Wheel™ bonus feature.
Stakelogic and Stakelogic Live are teaming up to change the game once again with the launch of the first-of-its-kind, innovative and exciting Super Wheel™ feature. The Super Wheel™ bonus is set for an early release with Unibet, ahead of a global release on November 9th.
This exciting new feature combines Stakelogic’s trademark innovative slot action with a live-casino bonus wheel where players will be in with the chance to win big. The feature will be added to a plethora of Stakelogic’s most popular slots, including hits like Multiplayer4Player, Wild Wild Bass 2, Candyways Bonanza 3 Megaways and more.
Super Wheel™ will be an optional feature that players can trigger on any random spin. Activate the Super Wheel™ bonus when playing any Stakelogic RNG slots and you will be whisked away to our live studio, where you will be greeted with a 54-segment money wheel. A charismatic host will then spin the wheel and you will be able to win a selection of fixed prizes.
The fun doesn’t stop there, though. There are three exciting bonus games that can be triggered on the wheel. If you land on one of these segments, you will be taken to a second studio where one of three bonuses will play out.
Vegas Drops™, Vegas Diamonds™ and Vegas Hold ‘n’ Spin™ all provide players with another unique live game, each of which serves up winning opportunities with a minimum return ensured. The Super Wheel™ has a 93% RTP and a 1 in 75 hit rate, ensuring an action-packed slice of bonus action for players.
Stephan van den Oetelaar, CEO at Stakelogic said: “Super Wheel™ is one of our most exciting features to date and one that we are incredibly proud to be releasing. Combining slot action with a live casino feature allows operators to provide their players with an exciting new gameplay experience.
Live casino is one of the fastest-growing verticals in the iGaming industry and combining it with our slot catalogue allows us to provide new entertainment opportunities and an unrivaled experience to players, cementing our place as one of the most creative content providers in the industry today.”
Dimitrios Merkouris, Product Manager at Stakelogic Live said: “Super Wheel is a true game-changer, designed to inject a fresh dose of excitement into the world of online casino entertainment.
Our team has poured boundless creativity and expertise into crafting a feature that encapsulates the essence of thrilling gameplay, offering players an immersive experience like never before.”

Alexandros Michas on Building Platforms, Not Pages
In the world of affiliate marketing, a little chaos is usually the norm. Managing dozens of websites across different regions often means endless firefighting. Enter Alexandros Michas, who was recently appointed as the Head of Website Operations at Media 24. In this interview, we talked with Alexandros about how he is replacing chaotic, site-by-site fixes with a single blueprint to turn standard affiliate sites into true digital platforms.
A few months ago, you were appointed as the Head of Website Operations at Media 24. To give our readers a look behind the scenes, what exactly does this role involve, and what are the main things you focus on in this position?
My job is to take the big-picture goals discussed with our CEO and figure out how we actually build them. I translate high-level business strategy into a concrete technical roadmap and take responsibility for it and everything that goes into our websites.
Day-to-day, I am leading our talented and experienced team of site managers. Together, we look at our portfolio of websites not just as platforms, but as products. We are constantly tweaking site functionality, brainstorming new product features, and upgrading the user experience. The ultimate goal is to move past standard affiliate landing pages and build something stickier. We want our websites to be the definitive, go-to destination where sports bettors in any given region don’t just visit once to find a bookmaker, but actively want to return to for value.
With dozens of websites in the portfolio, how do you prevent operational chaos? What does a scalable architecture look like for a modern affiliate house?
Honestly, if you treat every site like its own special project, you’ll drown in chaos overnight. The secret is standardisation.
Of course, every region has its own local specifics that we have to adapt to, and we do so by having locals as website managers. But underneath it all, we build everything on a single, shared blueprint. When we design a new feature, we don’t just build it for one site. We build it to level up the whole portfolio at once. It also makes expanding into a new market much easier. If a promising new region opens up tomorrow, we don’t have to start from scratch. We just drop in a product that’s already battle-tested and ready to go.
I’ve also set up teams around each GEO and manager, which include SEO specialists, content managers, and others, to ensure a smooth and efficient workflow.
Since you rely on a single blueprint, how do you manage the human element? How much freedom do your site managers have to experiment in their local markets versus sticking to the playbook?
Our site managers are the true experts in their specific regions, so they have total autonomy over their local content plans and figuring out what makes bettors in their area tick. They own that local strategy completely, while the blueprint just ensures they are building on a rock-solid foundation.
Because they are on the ground, I actually encourage them to constantly pitch product improvements. I always listen to their suggestions because a great idea shouldn’t just stay on one site. If a manager finds a feature that works incredibly well for their audience, we don’t just keep it there. We roll it into our core blueprint so the entire portfolio benefits from it.
The company has shifted toward building true digital platforms rather than just simple affiliate sites that rank. In practice, what is the biggest difference between those two approaches?
The biggest difference is value and retention. A simple affiliate site is transactional. It’s built entirely around SEO keywords just to capture a click, send the user to a sportsbook, and hope for a conversion. If Google tweaks its algorithm, that site is incredibly vulnerable because users have no real loyalty to it.
A digital platform, on the other hand, is an actual product. We aren’t just trying to get a click. We are trying to be a helpful place for the sports bettor. That means building features, community, and data hubs. It takes a lot more time and energy to maintain, but it turns a casual visitor into a loyal user. They don’t just find us on Google once. They bookmark the site and keep coming back because the product itself is valuable.
The World Cup is live right now. An event of this scale is a massive test for any affiliate. How did you approach the preparation for this global tournament from a product perspective, and what features did you ship to keep bettors engaged?
We knew the traffic spikes would be insane, so preparation actually started months ago. From a product perspective, the ultimate goal was instant utility. During a massive event like this, users want their information immediately, without any friction.
Feature-wise, we shipped an advanced match centre, a tournament bracket simulator, and worked heavily on upgrading our entire content strategy specifically for the World Cup. Because of the shared framework we talked about earlier, we didn’t have to build these tools site-by-site. Our blueprint allowed us to deploy these advanced features across all of our sports betting properties simultaneously, giving every region a premium product at the same time.
When the final whistle blows on the World Cup and we look back at the rest of 2026, what will have to happen for you to look back and say we absolutely nailed it?
On the data side, I want to look at our metrics and see a clear spike in returning users. That will be the ultimate proof that our platform strategy is actually working.
But our upgrades and feature improvements don’t just stop with the World Cup. We already have plenty of things in the pipeline, and we are planning a massive push right before the main European leagues kick off late this summer.
At the end of the day, I’ll know we nailed it if our site managers are effortlessly launching these new features, seeing the direct results of their work, and feeling like they have the absolute best tools in the industry to win their markets. That would be proof that we didn’t just build websites. We built a highly scalable affiliate product.
