Relax signs Spadegaming as latest Powered By Relax recruit
Relax Gaming, the igaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has agreed a Powered By Relax partnership deal to integrate the fast-growing online games provider Spadegaming’s suite of titles.
The latest game studio to benefit from the industry’s leading distribution programme, the platform-to-platform deal will provide Spadegaming with access to Relax’s host of tier-one operators, as well as unrivalled speed-to-market.
Spadegaming’s library of games is defined by the spirit of innovation, exhibiting creativity and cutting-edge technology – with a well-earned reputation as one of the industry’s leading suppliers of Eastern-inspired titles.
As well as expanding its horizons with this partnership, the studio also recently acquired a Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) licence, enabling it to extend its products and services to the gaming industry in Europe.
The agreement further enhances the diverse selection of quality games available to Relax’s clients – which has seen notable expansion in recent months across multiple European markets.
Commenting on the deal, Simon Hammon, CPO at Relax Gaming said: “Spadegaming’s focus on technology and high-quality content represents the ideal partner for us and our operators. Their products are highly recognised and loved by a wide range of demographics and we look forward to helping them expand into new regulated markets.
“The deal highlights the value that Powered By Relax brings to the table both for us and for studios, allowing for content to be exposed to the leading operators at unmatched speed. We look forward to supporting their next chapter of development.”
Danny Vincent, General Manager at Spadegaming added: “We are driven to create the best games on the market, and it is exciting that such a large number of new players will get to experience what we have to offer.
“The Powered by Relax programme is exactly what we need to help us achieve just that and get to the next level as a developer in the igaming industry. We look forward to everything this partnership with Relax can offer.”
Relax’s dedicated approach has seen the supplier receive a record-breaking 16 nominations across the EGR B2B Awards and the CasinoBeats Developer awards in 2021 as well as taking home “Casino Content Supplier” at the EGR Nordics Awards in February.
Now one of the industry’s leading aggregators, Relax provides more than 2,000 online casino games, from its high performing proprietary slots to a significant, varied library of content from hand-picked third-party studios via its partnership programmes.

Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa has been named the luckiest casino in the US according to a recent study conducted by Casinos.com. The resort claimed the top spot based on an in-depth analysis of Tripadvisor reviews, measuring the frequency of luck-related keyword mentions. With a 25.49% luck rate, Seminole Hard Rock Tampa topped the list thanks to glowing guest feedback, including frequent mentions of jackpots, hand pays and bonus wins. 50 reviews mentioned the word “jackpot,” and 19 even referenced a “hand pay.” Casinos.com tracked keywords such as lucky, luck, won, winning, success, jackpot, hand pay, winner, bonus, profit to determine which U.S. casinos inspired the most winning moments among visitors.
The Missouri Gaming Commission has announced that it has officially begun accepting applications for sports betting license. The Commission made the announcement following the unanimous approval of a resolution drafted Tuesday that approved the licensing process. The resolution passed after Gov. Mike Kehoe’s office reviewed it. The licensing period opens roughly six months after Missouri voters narrowly approved a constitutional amendment legalising sports betting. The measure passed by less than half a percentage point, with a margin of less than 7500 votes.
Underdog Fantasy has relaunched its draft-style daily fantasy sports (DFS) games in New York, nearly two months after it withdrew all of its DFS competitions from the Empire State. The decision to withdraw all DFS contests from New York in March came after a ruling from the New York State Gaming Commission in which the commission determined Underdog was not in line with the state’s current DFS law. An Underdog Fantasy spokesperson confirmed the company is still working under a temporary license. The New York State Gaming Commission agreed to allow the company to offer its draft DFS games with the temporary license. Most DFS companies in New York operate with a temporary license.

Fast Track Expands Barcelona Hub to Attract Tech Talent

Fast Track is delighted to announce the expansion of its Barcelona Hub as part of the company’s strategy to attract specialised tech talent and support the organisation’s rapid growth.
Barcelona was selected for its exceptional talent pool, particularly in technology, as well as its international appeal and high quality of life. The city’s excellent connectivity to the rest of Europe also makes it an ideal hub for attracting and retaining top talent.
The new office is designed to support Fast Track’s scaling efforts by enabling greater cross-team collaboration and increasing organisational resilience. It also reinforces the company’s presence in mainland Europe.
“We’re excited to strengthen our presence in Europe by investing in a city that clearly reflects our values. Barcelona is international, innovative, and well suited for long-term growth. This is about bringing in exceptional talent who share our vision and want to grow with us,” says Simon Lidzén, Co-Founder and CEO at Fast Track.
Reflecting Fast Track’s culture and vision, the space feels more like a creative studio than a conventional office. It is open, bright, and built for collaboration, with shared spaces, breakout areas, and social zones that support both teamwork and individual productivity. The atmosphere is easy-going, energetic, and inclusive, true to Fast Track’s ethos.
The Barcelona office will initially host teams across product, engineering, marketing, and partner-facing functions. As Fast Track continues to grow, it will also become home to leadership roles and cross-functional teams.
Far from being a satellite location, Barcelona is set to become a key strategic hub for the company. With a booming tech ecosystem, growing investment, and a deepening talent pool, Spain is rapidly emerging as a major force in European innovation, making it a natural fit for Fast Track’s expansion.
