Latest agreement expands provider’s footprint in key market

Independent slots studio Thunderkick has partnered with Italian operator Domusbet, extending its reach in the established European market.

The partnership, which will provide Domusbet with access to a selection of Thunderkick’s most popular titles, marks the latest step in the Swedish studio’s commercial strategy in Italy.

Thunderkick committed to market penetration with the appointment of its dedicated native Italian account manager, and has since targeted significant expansion in the jurisdiction through deals with CasinoMania and Netwin.

As one of Italy’s premium casino brands, Domusbet has consistently upgraded its portfolio to appeal to a broad audience, and the integration of Thunderkick’s content will elevate its offering further.

Among the games set to launch with the operator are slots from the Esqueleto Explosivo, Midas Golden Touch and Pink Elephants series, which have gained widespread recognition for their creative artwork and entertaining gameplay.

Andrea Brioschi, Key Account Manager at Thunderkick, said: “Thunderkick has made real strides in the Italian market over the past 12 months, collaborating with some of the nation’s most prominent and respected operators to amplify our audience reach.

“The partnership with Domusbet further highlights our targeted approach in the market, where our games have already proven a resounding success.”
