CasinoGrounds chooses Relax Gaming to bring slot vision to life
Relax Gaming, igaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has been selected by the industry’s largest collective streamer site, CasinoGrounds, to develop a unique, player-led slot game.
The supplier will custom-build the title based on CasinoGrounds’ specifications with the respective teams working closely together to bring the vision to life.
Set to launch in Q4 this year, the game will include multiple features guided by the streamer’s extensive experience playing a wide range of titles and vast industry knowledge gathered through its large community of slot enthusiasts.
CasinoGrounds, which was established in 2016 and backed by LeoVentures the following year, is one of the largest marketing affiliate companies in the online casino sector, which is reflected in the millions of views on its Youtube videos month on month.
The collaboration will build on Relax Gaming’s collection of in-house developed content, which has grown consistently with top-performing titles such as Temple Tumble, Money Train, Snake Arena and Hellcatraz since the company opened its first studio four years ago.
The latest addition to its portfolio, Money Train 2, has already smashed records since its launch on September 2nd and featured in a CasinoGrounds tournament where three streamers, Letsgiveitaspin, Slotspinne and Daskelele, battled to claim the highest payout and win a €7,500 prize.
Simon Hammon, Relax Gaming CPO, said: “CasinoGrounds is a pillar of the affiliate sector and we are proud to have been chosen to transform the team’s great ideas into something really special.
“Being able to take the knowledge they have at their disposal and work with them has been a pleasure. We’re also humbled that this collaboration came about as a result of the reputation our talented studio teams have secured in a relatively short period, and our willingness to go above and beyond to deliver on promises.”
Tobias Svensen, CEO at CasinoGrounds, said: “Relax is and has been a great partner in this project and we choose to work with them because of the level of experience demonstrated by their team, but also because of the respect that the company has for our community and willingness to listen along with the understanding that comes with that.
“This is a game that is made by players for players and we are really looking forward to seeing the game live and played by our fans and community.”
This year Relax Gaming is celebrating its 10th anniversary, marking a decade of quality service to the industry’s leading online casinos. The company supplies its partners with a growing library of over 1000 proprietary and third-party studio games through a quick and simple integration.
- Checkd International’s SmartPicks app has surpassed one million bets in just five months
- There have been over six million screen views by users
- More than 8,000 subscriptions have been purchased on SmartPicks Pro
Checkd International, the North American sports betting specialist and part of the award-winning Checkd Group, has announced a successful first NFL season for its SmartPicks betting app with many huge milestones hit by users.
At the culmination of Super Bowl LIX in Louisiana, over one million bets had been added to bet slips through SmartPicks, as the informative and streamlined app proved it was a roaring success.
The new and improved SmartPicks app was launched in October, midway through the NFL season, and builds on existing technology used in the UK by the Manchester-based company, to provide a unique sports betting-focused app to the US.
There have been over six million page views on SmartPicks since the launch, equating to more than one million each month.
The apps prop tool, which sits front and centre, has been hugely popular with users, and over one million markets have been selected using this.
In the past five months, there have been more than 29,000 installs for the app as more users across America look to use this as their preferred choice when gambling.
SmartPicks Pro, which gives users even more access and is Checkd Group’s first-ever subscription model product, saw more than 8,000 users join throughout the NFL season, proving how vital this model will be for the business going forward.
SmartPicks was built in-house by Checkd Dev, the technology specialist division of Checkd Group, which has supported top-tier operators with new products in the past year, including Paddy Power’s Mix ’N Match bet building tool.
The success of SmartPicks continues to expand Checkd Group’s position in the US-based betting market through Checkd International’s on-the-ground presence, and 2024 saw a 187% increase in app searches for the business.
Commenting on the success, Callum Broxton, Head of US Operations at Checkd Group said: “We’re delighted to announce that our SmartPicks app has been greatly received in the American sports betting market, with millions of bets placed and thousands of new users choosing the market-leading technology provided this NFL season.
“The launch of SmartPicks Pro has proven successful for the business, and with plenty of positive feedback from users, means we are looking for further ways to tap into revenue subscription models as there is clear demand for this.
“As we enter a key stage of the NBA season and March Madness set to begin, we look forward to developing the app further and making betting even easier across America.”
