Michael Tadross, Christos Zoulianitis and Martyna Scieszka set to lead respective units for award-winning provider
Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has revamped its corporate strategy with three internal promotions that align with the company’s ambitious business plans.
Michael Tadross, who has been with Playson for over six years, has been promoted to Director of Account Management. His new role will see him take even greater strategic leadership of the Account Management department and influence its further advancement.
Christos Zoulianitis has been promoted to Director of Market Strategy. His responsibilities now include developing and executing the company’s overall business strategy, introducing a new commercial approach that will secure market growth and brand exposure to all key focus markets.
Having started as an Account Manager in 2018, this is Zoulianitis’ third internal promotion at Playson, previously working under Head of Partnerships, showcasing his ability to communicate the organisation’s strategic vision and objectives by coordinating and evaluating strategic plans and initiatives.
Martyna Scieszka is now Head of Compliance following a strong performance since joining Playson just 14 months ago, providing the confidence for the studio she is ready to embrace additional responsibilities in a more senior role. Scieszka will spearhead Playson’s Compliance unit, fostering a culture of excellence as the company looks to extend its reach across regulated markets worldwide.
The latest promotions demonstrate the superior talent of Playson’s wider team and the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering career progression for its people, following the announcement of Vsevolod Lapin’s move to Deputy CEO last month.
Michael Tadross, Director of Account Management at Playson, said: “I am really excited to get started in my new role here at Playson.
“We have a unified team of experienced Account Managers and, as we continue to pursue our goal of expansion within regulated markets, I’m thrilled to further lead the team in facilitating Playson’s continued growth through striving to provide a first-class experience to our valued business partners.”
Christos Zoulianitis Director of Market Strategy at Playson, said: “For one of the long-serving members of the Playson team, I am delighted to be recognised with my promotion to Director of Market Strategy.
“Throughout my tenure we have experienced some good times and other more challenging ones, but with a clear vision in place coinciding with our ambitious growth plans, I am confident we can reach our goals.”
Martyna Scieszka, Head of Compliance at Playson, said: “Having worked in the iGaming industry for over a decade now, it’s great to now use my experience to enhance the compliance team at Playson.
“Our enhanced growth strategy is rapidly taking shape and I hope we can continue to secure some exciting licences.”
Alex Ivshin, CEO at Playson, said: “It brings us great pleasure make promotions from within the company. Michael, Christos and Martyna thoroughly deserve their new positions within Playson’s senior team.
“All three have demonstrated all the characteristics that we look for in our senior team as we continue to build and reach our goals. It’s great to know we have their experience and leadership.”
eGaming Integrity has been named Independent Online Gambling Assurance Provider of the Year 2026 at the UK Enterprise Awards, organised by SME News. The company is based in the Isle of Man and works with operators in regulated online gambling markets.
According to the company, the award recognises its assurance work aimed at helping gambling operators evaluate whether their compliance processes are prepared for regulated market requirements, as regulatory expectations increase around compliance standards and customer protection.
eGaming Integrity said its internal audit reviews assess how gambling businesses operate in practice, including whether procedures and controls meet standards expected by regulators. The company added that the process is designed to help operators identify where controls are effective and where improvements may be needed before issues emerge.
Emma Shilling, Director at eGaming Integrity, said,
“This award recognises the reason eGaming Integrity was created. Responsible operators want to know where they stand before problems appear, and independent assurance provides that outside perspective.
“Our team has seen regulation from both sides, which helps us understand where processes can break down and how operators can make practical improvements.”
Speaking on the accomplishments of the 2026 winners, Laura O’Carroll, Awards Manager, said,
“The announcement of our UK Enterprise Awards is perhaps one of our most anticipated milestones every year, and the 2026 launch is no different. We are truly pleased to deliver our digital magazine and winners list, showcasing such excellence, to our readers again this year. Atop this, to our winners, and from our team to yours, we wish you all a sincere congratulations on your success in this year’s programme.”

Booming Games has launched Tasty Bonanza Max Scatter, a new online slot released on 16 July 2026 from the supplier’s Malta base. The title is the second game in its Max Scatter series and uses a 6×4 grid with Scatter Pays, cascading wins and a stated maximum win potential of 15,000x.
The game pays when eight or more of the same symbol land. Winning symbols are removed and remaining symbols cascade down, with new symbols dropping in until no further wins are formed.
Free Spins are triggered by landing four or more Scatter symbols, including Scatters and Max Scatters, awarding 10 Free Spins. During the bonus, Random Multipliers can appear with values from 2x to 100x and remain active until the cascade sequence ends, after which multiplier values are combined and applied to the total win. Three or more Scatter symbols during Free Spins add five additional spins, while the feature ends if the max win is awarded.
Booming Games also includes Bonus Buy options priced at 100x the bet amount and a “Super Buy Bonus” at 500x, which the company says offers multipliers from 15x to 100x. A BOOST+ option increases the bet by 25% and increases the chance of triggering bonus features.
Craig Asling, Director of Games at Booming Games, said: “Tasty Bonanza Max Scatter is a great example of how we’re innovating within one of our top performing franchises. By adding exciting new Max Scatter mechanics to one of our most popular slots, we are confident the game will appeal to players looking for top-quality entertainment and high-stakes gameplay.”
