Swintt strengthens Dutch foothold with new Circus.nl partnership
Rapidly expanding software provider launches SwinttGames and SwinttPremium releases on Netherlands-based betting brand
Following the announcement of further Netherlands-based partnership deals earlier this year, Swintt looks to have doubled down on its decision to take the Dutch market by storm after teaming up with Circus.nl to launch a wide range of games on the popular betting platform.
The new collaboration sees Circus.nl – which also offers sports betting and a dedicated live casino – host a hand-picked selection of releases from the SwinttGames and SwinttPremium catalogue, as well as exclusive third-party slots that have been launched via the exciting SwinttStudios programme.
Of that powerful trio of line-ups, it’s arguably games in the SwinttPremium range that will be the most eagerly anticipated by customers at Circus.nl. As player trends in the Dutch market have previously demonstrated a certain affinity for “classic” slots, these titles look set to be the perfect fit for the platform, given they combine the playability of land-based slot machines with modern bonus features.
The SwinttPremium games collection is perhaps most widely recognised for its “Book” series of games, which all feature Free Spins bonus rounds that boast innovative modifiers such as expanding mystery symbols. One such title that will now debut at Circus.nl is Master of Books Unlimited, which not only provides this powerful mechanic, but also gives players the chance to re-trigger Free Spins indefinitely.
Other Premium titles that are set to feature on the Dutch platform include Extra Win X, which gives players the chance to massively multiply their base game winnings in a wheel of fortune-style bonus round, and the recently-released Cleopatras Pearls with everyone’s favourite Pearl feature and seven different scatters with special features.
Circus.nl players with an appetite for more modern slot content, meanwhile, will also have plenty to enjoy courtesy of the SwinttGames catalogue. With these games all boasting immersive themes and ground-breaking bonuses, notable additions to the site will include The Crown starring Vinnie Jones, the mobile-game inspired, Candy Gold and Swintt’s most successful title to date, Aloha Spirit XtraLockTM.
On top of these two staple collections, Circus.nl players will also be able to get their first look at boutique third-party software provider, Fine Edge Gaming, whose explosive Stacking Bison slot has been distributed via the SwinttStudios program. Featuring 720 ways to win, a maximum jackpot of 5,044x the selected bet and a Stacking Bison Respin feature that only uses high value symbols, the game has all the makings of an instant classic and should prove a huge hit among players at Circus.nl.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With the Dutch market being a key focus area for Swintt, we’re delighted to be teaming up with a quality brand like Circus.nl to ensure our state-of-the-art slot selection can be enjoyed by even more Netherlands-based players.
“With Premium releases, SwinttGames and SwinttStudios exclusive all launched recently, we’re sure Circus.nl customers will have no trouble finding a new favourite slot and we’re confident the partnership will prove a highly successful venture for everyone involved.”
Denis Wittebrood, Casino Operations Manager at Circus.nl, said: “We believe Circus.nl to be the top online casino and sports betting website available to Dutch players – and the most reliable way for us to cement our status as #1 is to carry on teaming up with the best and brightest game providers around.
“Over the past couple of years, Swintt have certainly proved that they’re one of the most sought-after developers in the online casino industry, so we’re very excited to now be able to share a wide selection of their releases with our casino customers and hope they enjoy taking these great games for a spin.”

New Award Categories for 2026
Woman Leader of the Year
This category celebrates an exceptional female leader whose vision, resilience, and strategic influence have helped transform her company and the industry as a whole.
Judges will look for measurable achievements in 2024–2025, including business growth, crisis management, innovation in user experience, safety, transparency, and responsible gambling.
The award is open to women driving meaningful impact while championing diversity, mentorship, and collaborative progress within iGaming.
Rising Star in Responsible Gambling
Designed to recognize organizations making remarkable early strides in safer gambling initiatives, this category highlights innovation and genuine commitment from companies of all sizes.

Young Changemaker Award
Honoring an individual under 30, the Young Changemaker Award shines a spotlight on rising professionals whose ethical innovation, creativity, and forward-thinking actions have made a visible impact in 2025.
Judges will consider originality, leadership ability, and tangible contributions that set a new benchmark for integrity and progress in iGaming.
Industry Culture Shaper
Recognizing that true industry progress starts within organizations, this award honors companies that cultivate positive, transparent, and supportive workplace cultures.
Nominees will be assessed based on measurable outcomes such as employee satisfaction, retention, and productivity, alongside initiatives that support wellbeing, mental health, professional development, and ethical HR practices.
Additional weight will be given to organizations whose efforts inspire better standards beyond their walls through partnerships, advocacy, or shared knowledge.
A broader vision for industry progress

The stadium lights are blazing, the chants are deafening, and a golden trophy gleams in the distance. Play’n GO’s Stadium of Riches captures the raw energy of the world’s favourite sport, placing players at the heart of the action in this high-stakes football showdown.
Stadium of Riches doesn’t just replicate the spirit of football – it elevates it. Surrounded by roaring fans and legendary symbolism, this 5-reel slot draws inspiration from the grandeur of cup finals and last-minute heroics. With immersive design and a theme steeped in international pride, the game taps into the drama of the beautiful game and the glory it promises to those bold enough to compete.
Rather than simply layering on football imagery, Stadium of Riches channels the atmosphere of a decisive match – from referee whistles and goalkeeper gloves to glistening boots and the unmistakable roar of a packed arena. Every detail contributes to the sense of being moments away from glory, giving players the feel of a clutch performance on the world stage.
Football fans will find familiar ground here, but there’s more beneath the surface. Players who enjoyed Legacy of Dead will recognise the layered gameplay structure and visual weight of symbols, bridging a connection between ancient mythologies and modern sporting legends. And for players across Latin America and Spain, where football transcends sport and becomes culture, Stadium of Riches offers a compelling new home fixture.
Magnus Wallentin, Games Ambassador at Play’n GO, said: “Football is universal – its narratives, passion, and unpredictability connect fans globally. With Stadium of Riches, we’ve captured that energy in a way that feels authentic and exhilarating.”
This title is set to resonate with players who live for the big moments – when legends are made and the world watches.
