Blaze Gaming turns up the heat by joining First Look Games

Rising star studio gets serious about game promotion by partnering with award-winning marketing platform that directly connects providers and affiliates
First Look Games, the ultimate marketing platform for game studios, has partnered with Blaze Gaming as the up-and-coming provider looks to drive awareness of its titles among affiliates and players.
As a partner of First Look Games, Blaze Gaming gains access to a fully branded library where it can upload information and assets for each of its games. This can then be downloaded by a network of approved affiliates and used to create reviews and previews.
The First Look Games library is powerful and sophisticated, with providers such as Blaze Gaming able to upload game sheets, logos, images and videos for each title in their portfolio.
The provider can even offer demo links for each of its games, with player verification that is carried out seamlessly by 1account. This means that affiliates in highly regulated markets such as the UK can still offer demo games to their audiences.
Blaze Gaming has complete control over the assets it shares via its library, and when those assets are made available to affiliates. It can even offer a “first look” to certain affiliates up to two weeks before a new game launches.
This allows affiliates to build anticipation of the game ahead of its launch – when it goes live, players can then fire up the reels without delay.
Elliott Resnick of First Look Games, said: “It’s great to see Blaze Gaming engaging with affiliates by using our award-winning platform. First Look Games provides cost-effective game marketing that is proven to work, and Blaze can now take advantage of its unrivalled power and reach.”
Keith Goddard, CEO at Blaze Gaming, added: “We are excited to leverage First Look Games and its suite of features and tools to directly connect with affiliates and make them aware of the awesome games in our portfolio so that more players can discover Blaze Gaming and our innovative, entertaining slots for the first time.”

SOFTSWISS Unveils New Cohort Analysis Report at Affilka Platform to Empower Data-Driven Decisions

SOFTSWISS, a leading software provider with over 15 years of experience in iGaming, announces the launch of the Cohort Analysis Report within the Affilka Platform. The new feature enhances how operators monitor and evaluate player behaviour.
Award-winning Affilka by SOFTSWISS, supporting over 440 brands, introduces a new feature to help present data in an intuitive table format, making it easy to interpret critical insights at a glance. The Cohort Analysis Report groups players based on shared characteristics – such as registration, first-time deposit (FTD), or any deposit date – to provide a detailed view of trends, retention rates, and campaign performance over time.
Operators can configure the report with essential filters, including:
- Cohort Type: Segment players by registration, FTD, or deposit dates.
- Cohort Size: Group data by day, week, or month.
- Period Range & Size: Define the analysis period and how data is grouped.
- Metrics: Analyse more than 40 performance indicators.
Additional filters, including Partner IDs, Brands, and Campaign/Promo IDs, enable further customisation, ensuring users can fine-tune their analysis to meet specific strategic goals. This flexibility allows operators to track retention, evaluate marketing campaigns, and make data-driven decisions, optimising overall performance.
“Our goal has always been to empower our partners with actionable insights,” said Gleb Bichan, Product Lead at Affilka by SOFTSWISS. “I’m excited to introduce our new Cohort Analysis feature, a game-changer for understanding player behaviour in iGaming. This powerful tool allows operators to track engagement, measure retention, and optimise marketing strategies by analysing player groups over time. With deeper insights into user activity, businesses can make data-driven decisions that enhance player experiences and drive long-term success. We believe this feature will empower our clients with the analytics they need to stay ahead in the competitive iGaming market.”
Anna, Affiliates Team Lead at 7BitPartners, comments on the efficiency of the new feature: “The new Cohort Analysis Report has streamlined our traffic analysis by consolidating player activity into one clear, easy-to-read report – especially for CPA sources. This tool helps us quickly spot long-term trends and lower-quality traffic, speeding up our decision-making process. The report’s intuitive design and rapid processing have significantly enhanced our overall workflow.”

The Danish Gambling Authority Warns of Money Laundering Risks When Using Affiliates

The Danish Gambling Authority has become aware that money laundering can occur through affiliates who market for gambling operators. Gambling operators that use affiliates should therefore consider whether this gives rise to updating their risk assessment.
An affiliate is a marketing channel where a person or company makes money by marketing for, for example, a gambling operator. The general consumer protection and marketing rules and the Gambling Act’s rules on marketing and communication also apply to affiliates. An affiliate earns money from the agreement by, for example, attracting new customers via their own website or through their own social network to the gambling operator’s website with a link. The link is generated specifically for the affiliate. The affiliate receives payment for the referral (pay per click), or a certain percentage of the amount the new customer deposits into their account.
How criminals can exploit affiliate agreements with gambling operators
In affiliate agreements with an individual or a company, there is an inherent risk that a gambling operator will be misused for money laundering. Particularly organized criminal networks can exploit an affiliate agreement. Networks of organized criminals can refer a large number of people within their criminal network as customers using the link to a gambling operator. A larger amount of illegal funds can be deposited into customers’ gambling accounts, which will not initially look suspicious, as the amount is distributed among several people in the criminal’s network. The deposited funds can subsequently be paid out to customers, possibly after play-through from their gambling accounts. This approach will make it look like legitimate winnings from gambling, and at the same time the affiliate increases its profit by having brought more new customers to the gambling operator, who according to the affiliate agreement is usually paid per additional new customer.
Signs of money laundering through affiliates
The Danish Gambling Authority points out that gambling operators may risk being misused for money laundering through these affiliate agreements. It may indicate that a gambling operator is being misused for money laundering by its affiliate if a majority of the customers referred by the affiliate only use the gambling operator’s website once and then no longer use the gambling operator’s services. It may therefore be relevant to assess whether entering into an affiliate agreement gives rise to updating one’s risk assessment.
