SPAYZ.io announces new brand identity, enters new growth stage
SPAYZ.io, a leading innovator in global payment solutions, has announced the launch of a new brand identity, logo, and website, marking a significant milestone in the company’s evolution as a leading fintech.
The updated brand reflects SPAYZ.io’s commitment to accessibility, inclusivity, and sustainability. It embodies the core values that have been integral to the growth of SPAYZ.io in recent years, including trust, simplicity through innovation, reliability and security.
The refreshed identity represents the fintech’s expanded vision as it prepares to introduce new products, enter new markets, and deepen relationships with existing customers and partners.
Ksenia Telukh, Marketing Manager at SPAYZ.io, spoke about the significance of this announcement.
“Everything about our rebrand has been carefully selected. The choice of dark anthracite, bright red and light grey symbolises dedication, security, growth and energy. Together, SPACE Grotesk and Montserrat fonts create a harmonious balance that reflects our innovative spirit and commitment to quality. We have created a graphic system to accurately resemble the financial system and payments ecosystem, celebrating simplicity through complexity.”
SPAYZ.io has successfully built a business centred around its clients. Leading payments professionals are involved at every stage of the business, from product and business development, sales and marketing, IT and analytics, to client support, legal and compliance, finance and operations.
Its portfolio of solutions includes Open Banking, Payouts, Local Bank Transfers, eWallets, Online Banking and Bank Card Processing. Each solution is designed to ensure smooth performance and versatility for different business needs across various platforms.
This is backed by a global solution, with geos including India, Indonesia, Japan, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, Vietnam, Ghana, Kenya, Congo, Nigeria and Europe.
In light of these achievements, a refreshed brand identity was both timely and necessary.
“This is a symbolic reimagining of SPAYZ.io, adopting an identity that embodies its values and the ongoing evolution of the company,” Ksenia commented. “Since being founded, we have had to adapt and adjust to new market conditions, seizing new opportunities and creating a service that reflects the direct needs of our partners. We’ve continued to go from strength to strength, making it essential to create a new brand that truly reflects our journey.”

ReferOn has completed a management buyout, with former General Manager Alex Bukin acquiring the iGaming affiliate management platform and taking over as Chief Executive Officer.
Bukin said the deal is intended to support longer-term product and market plans: “This is an important moment for ReferOn and the beginning of a new chapter for the business. The management buyout provides us with the long-term focus required to continually advance the platform. We remain committed to product development, strengthening our offerings for partners, and supporting ReferOn’s continued growth across key markets.”
ReferOn reported that in its first 12 months post-launch it recorded 35.7 million clicks, 2.4 million registrations, 18,000 affiliates, and 136,000 active trackers. The company also said it was named “Best Affiliate Platform” in 2025 and 2026 by industry stakeholders.
The company said the ownership change will not affect day-to-day operations and that existing support and partnerships will continue. It also pointed to recent product updates including Refie, described as a built-in interface layer, alongside features such as dynamic reporting, Company Grouping, Sub-Affiliation, Independent Deal Calculation (IDC), two-factor authentication (2FA), and mobile optimization.
As part of the transition, ReferOn said its leadership team remains in place, with Vlad Bondarenko moving from Head of Product to Chief Product Officer and David Harris moving from Operations Lead to Chief Operations Officer.

ELA Games said its slot title Joker Winpot has been shortlisted for “Game of the Year” at the 2026 SBC Awards Americas, with winners set to be revealed on June 10, 2026 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
The company described Joker Winpot as a consistent performer in its portfolio, combining a dark, character-driven theme with a 1×1 grid format.
ELA Games said the title’s core differentiator is its proprietary Winpot mechanic, a progression-based feature built around player choice. As rewards build inside the Winpot, players can either cash out or keep spinning in pursuit of higher payouts.
