The Nordic gaming company Paf decided to give all employees the opportunity to donate €125,000 to various good causes, initiatives and projects. The causes were selected through a nomination and voting process by the employees.

All Paf employees were given the opportunity to nominate their own initiatives that they felt were worthy of Paf’s €125,000 donation. Once the nomination process was complete, employees were asked to vote for the initiatives, and it was the employees’ votes that determined which initiatives received the donation and how much of the sum was allocated to each project.

“It’s really important that everyone who works at Paf feels that our core mission is different and that it’s well worth working for. That’s why we wanted to involve the employees and give everyone a direct opportunity to determine the distribution of the donation,” says Paf’s CEO Christer Fahlstedt.

Paf’s basic purpose is to generate funds for the benefit of society. The annual profit is used as Paf funds for social, environmental, youth, sports and cultural purposes, among others.

Second year in a row

This is the second year in a row that Paf employees have been able to donate a sum of money to various good causes. Last year employees donated €100,000 and this year the amount was increased to €125,000.

“It was a great way to end last year and a good initiative to repeat this year. The donation is not part of Paf’s usual mission and purpose, but it reflects our overall core purpose in an excellent way,’ says Paf CEO Christer Fahlstedt.

The distribution of €125,000

When the employees gathered in December for the annual Christmas speech, the vote was taken and the result determined how the €125,000 would be distributed. The Employee vote gave causes for Ukraine the biggest donation and €40,000, followed by causes against cancer €25,000 and in third place causes for combating abuse of children €15.000.

1. €40.000 – Causes for Ukraine

Swintt unveil a new sweet treat in Jelly Hunter Quadspins

Swintt, the renowned software provider celebrated for its thrilling content and innovative mechanics, has expanded its SwinttPremium line with Jelly Hunter Quadspins, an action-packed slot offering players the chance to win up to 6,000x their stake.

Timed to capture the energy of the changing season, Jelly Hunter Quadspins is set against a sun-drenched forest, complete with a carefully laid picnic blanket. Players are greeted by a lively cast of woodland creatures as high-value symbols, while colorful jelly desserts populate the rest of the paytable, creating a visually vibrant and cheerful gaming experience.

The game features five reels and 10 fixed paylines, and brings back the Quadspins mechanic, first introduced in Swintt’s Lucky Fortune Door series. Quadspins activate after any spin delivering at least 4x the bet, allowing players to convert all or part of their prize into a series of supercharged spins across four separate reel sets.

During Quadspins, a new mystery symbol appears as a set of bushes. Each symbol that lands reveals a random base game icon, creating extra winning opportunities. Players can continue Quadspins as long as they keep hitting at least 4x the bet, with a maximum of 50 spins per bonus round.

Additionally, any wins collected—whether in the base game or during Quadspins—can be gambled in the optional Risk feature, where correctly guessing the color of a hidden card doubles the prize. The feature continues until an incorrect guess or the maximum win is reached.

Anthony Dalla-Giacoma, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said:
“Jelly Hunter Quadspins perfectly blends simple, intuitive gameplay with the excitement of big wins. The return of our popular Quadspins mechanic, combined with a max win of 6,000x, makes this slot an ideal choice for fans of classic-style games with a modern twist.”

BC Engine

BC.GAME launches BC Engine, introducing continuous rewards model powered by $BC

bc.game-launches-bc-engine,-introducing-continuous-rewards-model-powered-by-$bc

Global crypto gaming platform BC.GAME has introduced BC Engine, a new rewards system designed to provide players with ongoing value from their gameplay, without minimum thresholds or tier requirements.

Inspired by crypto staking models, BC Engine transforms the platform’s native token, $BC, from a one-time incentive into a continuous rewards mechanism. Players still earn $BC through wagering as usual, but instead of being distributed as a standalone reward, the token is automatically allocated into BC Engine, where it contributes to ongoing earnings.

Rewards are distributed hourly in BCD, BC.GAME’s USD-pegged token, with each player’s payout determined by their $BC balance at the time of distribution. This structure creates a more consistent and transparent reward model, directly linking player activity to tangible returns.

The system also introduces a more sustainable approach by aligning reward funding with actual gaming performance, reducing reliance on traditional promotional spending.

Importantly, BC Engine is accessible to all players from day one, with no wagering thresholds or tier-based entry requirements, allowing users to begin earning rewards from their very first bet.

Alongside the launch, BC.GAME has rolled out additional enhancements to its rewards ecosystem, including a Welcome Shield protection feature for new users, as well as updated daily, weekly, and monthly reward programs.

The release comes as BC.GAME continues to expand in regulated markets, with an increased focus on compliance, local partnerships, and sustainable growth. The platform has been adapting its offering to meet jurisdictional requirements while strengthening its position across both licensed environments and its global crypto audience.

Kar Kheng Giam, Chief Executive Officer of BC.GAME, said:
“We want rewards to be simpler, more immediate, and more sustainable. Players should see value from the moment they start playing, without needing to reach specific milestones. With BC Engine, $BC becomes a core part of how ongoing rewards are delivered.”

The new features are now live across multiple markets, subject to local regulatory availability.
