Fennica Gaming’s eInstant Games Now Live in Belgium

Fennica Gaming has announced that its popular gaming titles are now live in Belgium at The National Lottery of Belgium. After securing the public procurement and navigating through a seamless delivery phase, rigorous testing and proactive customer success discussions, Belgian players can now enjoy the entertaining experience of Fennica Gaming’s offerings.
“This was our first public procurement, and it proved to be a very thorough yet ultimately successful process. We worked hard for it and were delighted to be chosen as a partner for Nationale Loterij. The discussions during the delivery phase were incredibly fruitful, as they not only facilitated the smooth launch of our eInstant games but also helped in selecting the initial set of games and shaping our roadmap strategy. The collaborative efforts and strategic planning during this phase have laid a solid foundation for our ongoing collaboration in the Belgian market,” Kirsi Lagus, SVP of Portfolio and Products at Fennica Gaming, said.
“The entire phase felt like we were on a smooth train journey. From the initial setup to the final integration, everything went without a hitch. The meticulous planning and attention to detail ensured that we encountered no disruptions, allowing for a seamless transition to bring these games to our Belgian audience,” David Verloes, Business & Brand Lead at Nationale Loterij, said.
Frame, the marketplace and customer tool provided by Fennica Gaming, offers a platform to fine-tune roadmaps and polish the games to suit player preferences. After the launch, Frame provides valuable data to evaluate and secure the customer’s success.
“The roadmap planning has been exceptional as Fennica Gaming’s own customer portal, Frame, is such an easy tool to use. With its games marketplace, secure document sharing, and especially its instant localization tool, selecting the games and planning the portfolio was really effortless. The capability the platform provides is something we haven’t seen on the market yet. This tool has undoubtedly set a new standard for the cooperation with games providers,” said Mélanie Chabrier, Lead Digital Products – Instant Games at Nationale Loterij.

CEO of PIN-UP Global claims the charges against the Ukrainian partner to be legally absurd

The State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) of Ukraine initiated criminal proceedings against the owner of the PIN-UP Ukraine operator (Ukr Game Technology LLC), Ihor Zotko, on charges of high treason and aiding and abetting Russia. It entailed freezing of the company’s accounts and complete suspension of its operations.
The accusations are based on license payments that Ukr Game Technology LLC (Brand PIN-UP.UA) transferred to PIN-UP Global (GuruFlow Team LTD), an international iGaming holding company registered in a European jurisdiction.
Marina Ilina, CEO of PIN-UP Global, strongly denies the accusations, stating that these are legitimate payments under the software license agreement. She emphasizes that GuruFlow Team LTD has transparent operations, is licensed in Europe and has no financial transactions with Russia.
“These accusations do not stand up to criticism. I am a Ukrainian and openly support my country. All the activities of my company are transparent and can be easily verified. We have no financial transfers to Russia, but only legitimate business operations. The case against Ukr Game Technology LLC may create a dangerous precedent in which standard commercial operations, such as royalty payments to international companies, are equated with a crime,” Ilina said.
According to her, the mere fact of the investigation led by the SBI raises serious concerns and looks like an element of pressure, since, according to the legislation, cases of high treason are in the competence of the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU), not the SBI.
Ilina believes that the development of the situation around Ukr Game Technology LLC may affect the international business perception of the investment climate in Ukraine and create risks for operation of foreign iGaming companies in the country.
