Finixio Launches New Products in Balkan, German and Japanese Markets
UK-based Finixio has launched new products targeting the Balkan, German and Japanese markets. The new sports betting products are Kladionica.com targeting the Balkan market, WettanbieterBonus.de targeting Germany and JapaneseBetting.com which focuses on Japan.
Finixio’s products and services allow users to compare sportsbook services and offers at different sites. Already this year, Finixio has launched its own suite of horse racing tools and services including live horse results, race cards and odds comparison on its flagship website Sportslens.
Adam Grunwerg, CEO of Finixio, said: “2021 was a breakthrough year for us as we successfully diversified into the iGaming vertical. This year we aim to expand into new markets where we see great potential. The Balkan markets of Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia will give us access to more than 15m users, while Japan is one of the most untapped markets with over 125m people and a $60b online sports betting industry. Japan is also quite unique when it comes to its domestic sports schedule with a focus on Baseball, Sumo and Horse racing fixtures. We look forward to analyzing the opportunities of these markets in more detail.
“Our goals for 2022 are to continue our growth, expand into new markets and revamp our websites to make them industry leaders. This includes an increased focus on personalisation, user ratings, tools and high quality news. We also aim to keep on top of upcoming or newly regulated betting regions such as Brazil, Chile, Ukraine and Canada.”
Samuel Miranda, Co-founder of Finixio, said: “I’m very proud of what the entire Finixio team has achieved in such a short time frame. It’s a tremendous effort to come this far. The majority of the iGaming industry has been consolidated by big Scandinavian companies on highly leveraged buyouts. We’re now competing with them on the same level but with a much lower operating budget, lower timeframe and launching a number of our sites from scratch.”

Eagerly anticipated release now confirmed following a highly successful exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive
Play’n GO has today announced the official US release of its hit title Colt Lightning Firestorm, following a three-week period of exclusivity with Rush Street Interactive brands BetRivers and SugarHouse.
Colt Lightning Firestorm was released in Europe and other jurisdictions in May 2024, and its release in the US comes with much fanfare following the game’s rave reviews in its short exclusivity period. The game is a sequel to the wildly popular Colt Lightning game which was released early last year, and indications at this stage suggest that this sequel may prove even more successful.
This announcement sees Colt Lightning Firestorm available to players in each state and operator with whom Play’n GO is licensed. Play’n GO first entered the online casino market in the US in 2022, and has reiterated its commitment to becoming active in every regulated market around the world.
Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer at Play’n GO said: “We’re excited to unveil Colt Lightning Firestorm to the wider online casino gaming community in the US, and have been very pleased to see its strong performance during its exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive. We had high hopes for the game following the success of its predecessor, and we’re confident that these robust results will continue now that the game is available to an even bigger audience.”
Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced plans to host two popular esports events in Singapore in 2024 and 2025.
BLAST will bring both world-class Counter-Strike and Dota 2 tournaments to the heart of Southeast Asia, marking a major step in Singapore’s emergence as an esports and gaming hub. Supported by the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), these high-profile events will bring the world’s best esports teams and players from all across the world to compete in Singapore.
BLAST has teamed up with AEG Presents Asia, one of the world’s largest live entertainment entities to bring these events to Singapore. The partnership forms part of BLAST’s ambition to create the best esports experiences by working closely with premier destinations and the biggest and best live entertainment partners.
More than half of global esports views (57%) are estimated to come from the Asia Pacific region, 47% more than any other region in the world with the global market valued at $1.6 billion.
By bringing the top-tier Counter-Strike and Dota 2 tournaments to Singapore, BLAST aims
to attract global esports talent, foster local growth, and elevate Singapore’s status as a destination for world-class esports entertainment.
James Woollard, Director of Market Development at BLAST, said: “We are incredibly excited to bring two of the biggest esports titles to this vibrant destination. Over the coming 18 months, Singapore will become a major hub for esports in Southeast Asia, and with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board, we look forward to delivering unforgettable experiences for fans while helping to build a thriving esports ecosystem in the region. Bringing the first BLAST arena event to Singapore is an exciting first step in this journey. The World Final will see the world’s best Counter-Strike players and teams fighting for a $1,000,000 total prize pool.”
Ms Ong Ling Lee, Executive Director, Sports and Wellness, Singapore Tourism Board, said, “We are excited to host the BLAST Premier World Final and the BLAST Dota Slam in Singapore. The Counter-Strike event marks the first BLAST-branded event in Southeast Asia and the inaugural Counter-Strike tournament series in the region, solidifying Singapore’s position as a world-class esports destination. We are confident that the international participants and their legions of fans will have a memorable experience in Singapore, immersing themselves in the diverse and dynamic offerings of our city.”
The World Final 2024 will take place from 30th October – 3rd November and will be the first BLAST event to take place in Singapore, followed by the BLAST Dota Slam in 2025. The World Final will be the biggest Counter-Strike event to take place in Singapore, where the world’s best eight Counter-Strike teams will compete for a massive prize pool of $1,000,000 and the chance to claim bragging rights as the best team around.
