Danish mobile gaming start-up Multiscription has secured a new round of funding to support the growth of its Unleashd service, a subscription-based alternative to existing free-to-play marketing and monetization. This latest investment of an additional €1.5M was led by Sisu Game Ventures, with additional funding from Sweden’s Tigrim and The Danish Growth Fund, the state-backed, independent fund which invests in Danish start-ups. This is the group behind the previously announced investment of €800,000 in September 2021.

Subscription-based gaming is expected to be worth $24.1 billion per year by 2030, according to a new report from Grand View Research, with mobile gaming projected to see the highest growth of any platform at 16.8 percent per year. This is due both to the ubiquity of mobile phones and the fact that mobile is the primary gaming platform of consumers in markets such as India, Brazil and much of Asia.

Unleashd is a unique mobile games subscription service that gives publishers an alternative to existing free-to-play (F2P) monetization that works alongside their existing revenue streams. Mobile publishers can easily add their games to the Unleashd subscription app, with gamers able to play games without disruptive ads, accessing exclusive benefits such as score multipliers, character upgrades and unique in-game items. Gamers can test out Unleashd for free for seven days, after which the service costs from 4.99 Euros per month.

Right now, there are 22 games included in the monthly subscription, including Conduct This!, Bonfire 2 and the newly-integrated Tiny Rails from Trophy Games; new games are being integrated all the time.

The investment is crucial to Multiscription’s growth plans as it allows the company to expand the development team behind the Unleashd platform and further enhance the technology used to onboard new developers and their games.

“This new funding is a great vote of confidence in our work to show mobile game publishers that there is an alternative to existing monetization models. It will help us scale up our team and technology and enhance our in-game monetisation design capabilities, a service we provide to our publisher partners to create the best subscription offers. On top of this, we are working towards the iOS launch in early 2023,” said Teis Mikkelsen, Co-Founder and CEO of Multiscription.

Mobile gaming accounts for more than half of all game revenues globally, yet very little has changed regarding how publishers monetize their games. Unleashd offers a fresh approach to discovery and monetization, taking a subscription model we know consumers like and giving it a mobile-first twist. We are excited by what Teis and the team are building, and its potential to disrupt the F2P status quo,” said Samuli Syvähuoko, Founding Partner at Sisu Game Ventures.

Publishers joining the service are still able to offer rewarded ads and in-app purchases, but Unleashd provides an opportunity to create extra exclusive offers that are only available to subscribers.

Gmonitor.ai presents its new Online Gaming Market Report: Spain Q2 2025, which provides an in-depth analysis of the DGOJ data on the regulated market between April and June of this year.

The report places Spanish online gaming in a stage of consolidation: year-on-year growth of 18.6% (€410.3 million in GGR) confirms the strength of the sector, but also the transition towards a more mature market, a trend driven by technology, regulation and operator loyalty. The two leading verticals, online casinos and sports betting, account for more than 94% of revenue, with €216.4 million and €171.4 million respectively.

In addition to financial analysis, the study delves into player behaviour patterns, highlighting a 23.7% increase in deposits and a 28.9% increase in withdrawals, reflecting greater liquidity and spending per active user. However, the number of new accounts registered fell by 11.6% compared to the previous quarter, a sign that the market is beginning to mature and focus more on retention than acquisition.

“The Spanish market has entered a phase where data, regulation and player loyalty define profitability. Gmonitor converts this information into a competitive advantage and lower costs for all players in the sector”, highlights the Gmonitor team.

The document devotes specific sections to casinos, betting, poker and bingo, as well as the regulatory environment and medium- and long-term strategic prospects. The report is available for download and can be complemented with a personalised demonstration of the platform, where users can explore how they can generate their own reports and access more granular information tailored to each user and organisation.
