Alea gets deeper in the Groove with a contract extension to take casino content to a new level
Aggregator and platform GrooveGaming has announced a milestone contract extension with powerhouse Alea, taking the long-standing relationship to a new level.
Alea Gaming is an award-winning new generation game aggregator with licenses from the Malta Gaming Authority and Curacao.
The two companies further sealed their collaboration following a run of success that has been central to driving revenue and client acquisition for both these major brands.
GrooveGaming is the content provider of choice for a host of big industry names including EveryMatrix, iGP, Digitain, Microgaming, ProgressPlay, Quickfire, and BetConstruct amongst others, and has now clinched this important contract extension with Alea.
GrooveGaming’s powerful platform includes thousands of casino games as well as a wealth of aggregated content ranging from slots, online casino and live casino, to poker and table games, that operators can access via easy integration to drive player engagement and revenue.
A major reason why GrooveGaming is becoming the aggregator of choice around the world is that GrooveGaming is powered by technology innovation which provides operators with the ability to activate a range of features that enhance customer experience and engagement, improve retention, encourage extended play and produce a higher yield.
Barcelona-based Alea’s reputation amongst players, industry people and prominent influencers in the gaming world is excellent on a spectrum of key drivers in the iGaming industry. It is reflected in the raft of awards and accreditations that they have received, particularly for offering a great player experience.
Commenting on the deal, co-founder of Alea, Alexander Tomic, said: “Groove’s portfolio is packed with some of the most popular in the industry as well as a carefully curated group of studios that add another dimension entirely to the available content. It is this strength-in-depth that has brought us to widen the scope of our agreements.”
Yahale Meltzer, COO at GrooveGaming said: “This contract extension is the natural evolution of our mutual affinity for innovation and providing superior customer service. The B2B delivery capability and ground-breaking technology that we both have means a solid partnership strengthens us both as we get more familiar with one another’s strengths and add to them further.”
Industry Awards
Stats Perform Named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at EGR B2B Awards 2025

Stats Perform has been named Live Streaming Supplier of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards 2025, in recognition of the strength, innovation, and global scale of its Bet LiveStreams platform for licensed sportsbook apps, websites and retail betting venues.
Bet LiveStreams, first launched as ‘Watch&Bet’ in 2005, now delivers more than 40,000 exclusive low-latency live events each year, across 15 sports. Football, the world’s largest betting sport, accounts for more than 15,000 matches, with rights including LaLiga, CONCACAF, English Football League and top domestic leagues and cups across Europe, South America, and APAC. Other sports include tennis, basketball, volleyball, darts, badminton, rugby and cricket.
Judges noted that Stats Perform’s Bet LiveStreams is unique because of its extensive year-long, round-the-clock coverage and high performance. In 2024, the platform securely delivered billions of live video sessions to hundreds of licensed global sportsbooks such as bet365, Betano, Superbet, Betfair, FanDuel and many more.
They also praised its interactive, built-for-betting features like betslip integration, instant highlights, and in-stream contextual stats (also known as Opta Interactive Overlays) that have made the watching and betting experience more engaging for bettors.
“Our focus with Bet LiveStreams has been to make live streams easy to watch and bettable, whoever is playing,” said Mike Perez, Chief Operating Officer at Stats Perform. “The features give bettors more entertainment from every stream, whether it’s a headline fixture like Tottenham v Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, or a six-goal thriller in South America that might otherwise have been overlooked. We’re delighted our efforts have been recognised with this award.”
The judging panel pointed to three standout recent Bet LiveStreams innovations:
- Opta Interactive Overlays: Live game and player stats and odds available directly in-stream, with bets added to the slip in one click
- Instant Highlights: Key moments can be replayed during the game to help bettors quickly catch up on relevant action, such as the moment their bet won, or see action they missed in other live games, with multi-game playlists across competitions
- Live Match Gallery: Easier discovery of concurrent events, helping bettors follow more matches and sports at the same time
Adoption of these features has been fast and operators have reported a 7x increase in interactions per session, longer watch times and more in-play bets placed.
“This award is a reflection of how far streaming can go when it’s built for betting, not just viewing. We’re excited to continue to integrate our Opta data and AI into the experience to make the future of streaming on sportsbooks more engaging, intuitive and bettable,” added Perez.

Spinomenal presents new slot: Queen of Oasis

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest title, Queen of Oasis.
Set against the rolling ancient Egyptian dunes and lush, palm-lined oases, Queen of Oasis immerses players in an elegant world of riches. Camels, vultures, antelopes, snakes, and the powerful Queen herself bring this 5-reel slot to life. The reels sit within two ornate marble pillars where the bejewelled Queen represents the Wild symbol.
During the main game, the Queen counts for any symbol except Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Finding five Wild symbols on a winning line pays x2,000 the bet.
Queen of Oasis is a crowning triumph thanks to the two superb features, a Bonus game and Free Spins. Three or more Scattered Free Spins symbols trigger the special feature. Before Free Spins commence, players can either accept the current number awarded or throw caution to the wind to earn more – up to 50 free spins. Once activated, one to three stacked Wilds are placed on random reels during each spin and boosting potential returns.
The bonus game is initiated when three or more Scattered Bonus Symbols land on the reels. Players kick off with three spins and the goal is finding as many urns as possible to increase the multiplier metre which pays out once the spins are finished. Each sector of the multiplier metre is filled by five winning symbols and there is an opportunity to bag an extra spin by finding the +1 symbol.
Synced Reels and Expanding Reels add another exciting element to the Bonus Game.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of Oasis is a beautiful blend of visual elegance and bold gameplay. Every feature has been created to captivate, reward, and raise the bar for what an Egyptian-themed slot can deliver.”
