BOS Comments on Swedish Government’s Extended Covid-19 Restrictions

The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling, BOS, has urged the government to withdraw its proposals to extend current restrictions on the online gaming industry.

“There is nothing as permanent as a political promise of something temporary. The temporary restrictions introduced this summer were justified by an alleged increase in online casinos. That did not turn out to be the case. Online casino activity didn’t increase, and sports betting decreased dramatically due to canceled matches. Instead, it was gambling on horses that increased dramatically,” Gustaf Hoffstedt, Secretary-General of BOS, said.

“All actors on the gambling market, such as the Swedish Gambling Authority, we and the government, knew this but unfortunately the government persisted in the erroneous claim that online casino activity would increase and that special restrictions were therefore called for regarding that form of gambling. Betting on horses, on the other hand, was left protected from restrictions.

“It is unfortunate that we can only state that the government is now making a double mistake when it with the same erroneous claims about increased online casino gambling extends the restrictions.

“The consequences of the restrictions are twofold. First, high-volume players jump between more and more gambling companies to avoid the deposit limit. This makes it difficult for an individual gambling company to get an overall picture of a player’s behavior, which is a prerequisite for being able to take protective measures in the event of suspected problem gambling.

“Second, the high-volume players are leaving the Swedish licensing system in favor of the unregulated gambling market, where there are no deposit limits. Even before the first restrictions were introduced this summer, the leakage from the Swedish licensing system was 25 percent for online casinos. What the leak is today and what happens during the extended restriction is a scary thought. The government throws the Swedish gambling consumers out of the licensing system into the wolves’ gap where consumer protection is zero.”

This summer, WinSpirit celebrates its birthday with Alchemy of Passion, a large-scale promotional campaign designed to create deeper player engagement through gamification, storytelling, and immersive rewards.

Built around the concept of discovering the legendary Elixir of Passion, the campaign transforms traditional promotional mechanics into an interactive journey. Players are invited to collect ingredients, complete quests, unlock rewards, and explore new experiences — turning every spin and action into part of a larger adventure.

Throughout the campaign, players can access multiple engagement features, including the Gift Portal, Gift Shop, Mystery Elixirs, quests, tournaments, and exclusive bonuses created specifically for the celebration.

From a product perspective, Alchemy of Passion highlights WinSpirit’s approach to developing creative promotional solutions that help operators increase player interaction, strengthen loyalty, and deliver memorable brand experiences. By combining narrative-driven mechanics with rewarding gameplay elements, the campaign provides partners with a flexible engagement tool designed to support retention and long-term player relationships.

The campaign also reflects WinSpirit’s continued investment in innovation, exploring new ways to connect entertainment, technology, and player-focused experiences within the iGaming ecosystem.

This birthday celebration is WinSpirit’s way of thanking the community that continues to shape the brand. Instead of simply marking another milestone, the company is creating new opportunities for players to interact, discover rewards, and celebrate together.

While Alchemy of Passion is already live, another major experience is being prepared behind the scenes. Soon, players and partners will get their first look at Euphoria Lab — a brand-new concept designed to bring an entirely new level of engagement.

The celebration has begun. The formula continues to evolve, and the next chapter is about to unfold.

SpringbokCasino.co.za has launched a July promotion offering players 25 free spins on SpinLogic slot title Seahorse Surge, using coupon code MINIONS. The operator said the offer is valid throughout July on its South Africa-facing site.

The campaign is positioned around a “Minions in the Wild – Nature’s Greatest Helpers” theme, timed to coincide with the release window of a new Minions film. SpringbokCasino’s creative frames the promotion through five animal “archetypes” — meerkats, hyenas, dassies, warthogs and elephants — as analogies for different styles of play.

“Every ecosystem needs its helpers, and every winning session needs the right mix of patience, timing, and a little bit of glorious chaos,” said Daniel Van Wyke, Casino Manager at SpringbokCasino. “This July, we celebrate South Africa’s wildest ‘Minions’—and give our players 25 free spins to cause some fun trouble of their own.”

SpringbokCasino described Seahorse Surge as featuring “cascading wins and rising multipliers.”
