Paf’s climate goal is to reach Net-Zero emissions for the entire business by 2040. The target has now been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) and it is in line with the Paris Agreement’s goal of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C.

The Nordic gaming company Paf will work actively to reach Net-Zero. This means that Paf will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 90% by 2040 from 2019 emission levels. The remaining 10% of emissions will be addressed through neutralization and carbon offset.

“We are proud to be one of the very first in our industry to set ambitious Net-Zero targets. Having our targets approved by SBTi is an important milestone in our environmental responsibility work,” says Daniela Johansson, Deputy CEO & Chief Responsibility Officer at Paf.

A powerful commitment

Paf’s climate goal represents a strong and clear ambition to take responsibility for its environmental impact. Paf has already had its Near-Term target approved by SBTi: to reduce Paf’s direct emissions (Scope 1 and 2) by 46% by 2030 from a 2019 base year.

“Reaching Net-Zero is not something you can do alone and it requires a broad collaboration. We will work closely with our suppliers and partners to achieve this goal,” says Anna Ingman, Environmental Specialist at Paf.

To ensure that the climate goals are reached, climate work needs to be integrated into every aspect of the business. Engaging the entire supply chain strengthens the commitment and creates a common ground for sustainable development.

“Paf’s Net-Zero goal is an ambitious and important step in the right direction. We hope to inspire other companies to take responsibility for their emissions and contribute to a more sustainable future,” says Daniela Johansson.

Although it is not a requirement from SBTi, Paf plans to continue climate financing along the way.

This is SBTi

The Science Based Targets initiative is a collaboration between CDP, the UN Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI) and the World Wildlife Fund (WWF). The initiative was launched in the context of the 2015 Paris Agreement.

SBTi offers companies a robust and scientific framework of climate targets and methodologies. The targets should be in line with what science says is needed to keep global warming below 1.5°C.

SBTi counts greenhouse gas emissions according to the GHG protocol which consists of:

Scope 1 / Direct emissions

Direct greenhouse gas emissions that come from sources owned or controlled by Paf (in Paf’s case company vehicles).

Scope 2 / Indirect emissions from purchased energy
Emissions from heating, cooling and production of electricity purchased by Paf.

Scope 3 / Indirect emissions from business activities
Indirect emissions caused by Paf’s activities such as business and customer travel, purchased technology, electricity consumption for physical games and server services, as well as capital goods, waste management and employee commuting to and from Paf’s offices. Scope 3 contains a total of 15 categories, eight of which are relevant to Paf’s operations.

Depending on their size, companies apply in different pathways to have their climate targets approved by SBTi. As Paf has fewer than 500 employees, the climate target was approved as an SBT-target for small and medium-sized enterprises.

QTech expands crash and fast games lineup with XUP Studio content

qtech-expands-crash-and-fast-games-lineup-with-xup-studio-content

QTech has signed a new content agreement with XUP Studio to add more crash and fast games to its aggregation platform, extending its catalogue for operators across emerging markets including Latin America and Africa.

XUP Studio was founded in 2025 and is focused on crash and fast games. The studio said it is building new mechanics rather than relying on reskins. It currently has three games live, including Pingwin and Pigaboom, with four more in development and a further three planned for 2026.

Philip Doftvik, QTech’s CEO, said: “XUP Studio’s initial launch of some jaw-dropping crash and fast games is premised on clever mechanics, easily intelligible gameplay, high payouts and colourful graphics. This kind of content is well-suited to LatAm and African markets, which directly tracks our ongoing expansion throughout these territories. After such a dazzling beginning, we can’t wait to see what’s next from this rising star.”

Nikoloz Kadjaev, Co-Founder of XUP Studio, added: “Our idea was to build new mechanics in the fast and crash game segments. With the market flooded by reskins, XUP’s vision has always been to create something truly unique – not just visually, but mechanically as well. Emboldened by the breakout success of Pigaboom, our team will continue building games with mechanics that stand apart from everything else on the market. Having such a strong in-house think-tank enables us to carefully craft each product to a high standard. We are in no rush, never compromising on quality for faster delivery. In short, we don’t copy – we create something fresh that we would love to play ourselves.

“Partnering with QTech represents an ideal opportunity for us to strengthen our product distribution across emerging markets and deliver our fantastic crash games to more and more top-tier operators, unlocking untapped jurisdictions from Asia, through Africa and Eastern Europe, and on to Latin America for diversified growth.”

New 5×3 Hold & Hit title adds four bonus symbol types, a Buy Feature, and a top prize capped at x3,000 of the bet.

Spinomenal has launched a new slot title, 3 Scarabs Of Rebirth, expanding its Egyptian-themed content catalogue. The game is a 5×3 reel video slot built around a Hold & Hit-style bonus.

In the base game, the Pharaoh serves as the Wild and substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus, Boost, Collect, Multi and Jackpot symbols. The slot includes four main bonus symbol types: a Bonus symbol with values, a Boost symbol that applies a random bet multiplier (x2, x3, x4, x5, x7 or x10) across symbols, a Multi symbol that multiplies the value of other symbols (x2, x3 or x5), and a Collect symbol that aggregates Bonus symbol values into one prize.

A Bonus Blast Feature can add additional Bonus symbols when one or more appear without triggering the main bonus. The Hold & Hit Bonus Game triggers when six or more qualifying symbols land, holding triggering symbols in place and starting with three bonus spins that reset when new symbols land. During the feature, prizes can include symbol values ranging from x1 to x10 of the total bet, plus Mini (x20), Minor (x50) and Major (x150) jackpots. Filling all 15 cells awards the Grand Jackpot, capped at x3,000 of the total bet.

The title also includes a Buy Feature that lets players purchase direct entry to the Bonus Game at a cost scaled to the chosen bet.

Spinomenal CO-CEO Omer Henya said: “3 Scarabs Of Rebirth combines the eternal appeal of Ancient Egypt with the satisfying Hold & Hit gameplay that our players enjoy. There are four different Bonus symbols, each opening up a different path to victory and a Grand Jackpot of x3,000 up for grabs, making this a treasure hunt players won’t want to put down.”

GoldenRace has launched its next-generation V5 mobile solution, the supplier announced on 1 July 2026 in Malta. The company positions the release as a mobile delivery upgrade for its virtual sports and betting content, aimed at maintaining performance under high player traffic.

According to GoldenRace, V5 consolidates its previous architecture into a single application and “drastically reduces load sizes by 80–90%.” The company also said the platform is built “completely from the ground up” with a unified UI/UX designed to remain responsive across different network conditions.

On product features, GoldenRace said V5 introduces “advanced WebGL capabilities” to support high-fidelity graphics and operator-controlled branding. It also adds native gamification tools across games, including custom Tournaments, Leaderboards and Free Bets.

The company also outlined three mobile upgrades intended to reduce friction in the betting flow: a Lobby with modular layouts and a one-click toggle between scheduled and instant views; a next-generation Betslip with richer visual components and “smart organisation”; and dynamic Leaderboards with configurable funding and custom point logic.

GoldenRace said operators can switch to V5 by “changing a single line of code,” and added that a demo is available for operators evaluating the new mobile solution.
