First Look Games rolls out White Label Client Area
Studios can quickly and easily launch a fully customisable Client Area to showcase their titles to operators and their casino managers
First Look Games, the platform that directly connects slot studios and affiliates for the purpose of game promotion, has expanded its product offering to include a comprehensive White Label Client Area.
The White Label Client Area is based on the powerful First Look Games (FLG) platform but has been further developed to support operator access and asset delivery.
One of the greatest challenges that comes with building a client game lobby is the sheer volume of storage required. Studios need to upload game sheets, large assets, images, videos and even demos of the game, and this takes up a lot of data.
The FLG White Label Client Area has been tested with up to 30TB of allocated space and 800,000 active files. It can support individual file sizes of 10GB, even with the platform sitting behind Cloudflare’s cutting-edge cybersecurity defences.
Security is taken a step further with only logged-in users able to access and download hosted files and segmentation available on users as the studio wishes.
Given the highly competitive nature of game development and the need for studios to stand out from their rivals, the FLG White Label Client Area has been built to be highly flexible and to offer extensive customisation so that studios can leverage their brand and identity when showcasing their games.
It also offers the option to bring in custom functionality such as single sign-on via Oauth/Open ID or a third-party provider to deliver the best possible user experience while still ensuring the highest levels of security. It can be hosted in any data centre in any country upon request.
Customisation does not end there. The FLG White Label Client Area is fully compatible with custom End User Licence Agreements on a per-game basis, allowing the studio to set up different EULA checks for specific games such as branded slots.
Finally, it provides a huge amount of data regarding downloads and popularity of particular games that studios themselves rarely have the development resources to include, allowing marketing and commercial teams with access to valuable information.
Tom Galanis, Managing Director at First Look Games, said: “A client game lobby acts as a shop window for operators and their casino managers, allowing them to see the studio’s slots and accompanying information, access marketing assets and even demo the games.
“But building a client area from scratch is rarely quick and normally pulls development resources from other projects. The First Look White Label Area is a ready-to-roll-out solution that allows studios to showcase their titles effectively and efficiently.
“Of course, it comes with the added benefit of having the option to automatically sync with our main First Look Games platform, allowing studios to unlock the full value of our growing suite of products and services seamlessly and easily.”

SOFTSWISS, a global tech company with over 15 years of experience in iGaming, introduces a new Geo-Distributed Redirect feature of Affilka by SOFTSWISS that helps operators improve engagement and conversion rates by reducing user redirect times.
The Geo-Distributed Redirect feature intelligently routes users to destination landing pages via regional clusters closest to their location. This geo-optimised infrastructure minimises redirect times, increasing successful website visits from referral links. The feature is designed for seamless scalability across multiple regions and enhances performance globally, wherever needed.
With the new feature, Affilka by SOFTSWISS reduced redirect duration by 2.5 to 5 times. At one of the regions, for example, extensive simulated tests showed a decrease in redirect times for users from 1.5 seconds to 300-500 milliseconds – this is one of the fastest responses available in the market. As a result, the feature implementation leads to a 3.5% to 7% growth in users successfully reaching casino sites. This increase in site traffic, in turn, directly contributes to more registrations and deposits.
The Geo-Distributed Redirect feature boosts conversions, accelerates redirects, enhances fault tolerance and high availability, and improves service reliability for users globally. Even during unexpected challenges, the system dynamically reroutes traffic to alternative resources, ensuring a seamless experience.
Gleb Bichan, Product Lead at Affilka by SOFTSWISS, shares his excitement: “With the launch of our Geo-Distributed Redirect feature, we are addressing the needs of clients targeting users worldwide. By reducing redirection times and increasing reliability, we enable our partners to deliver a superior user experience that drives traffic delivery and conversions. This feature is a significant improvement for customers looking to expand their global reach.”
Along with affiliate marketing, SEO website advancement helps operators promote their projects. Considering this, SOFTSWISS issued a comprehensive Casino SEO Audit: The Ultimate Guide, providing tips for increasing any iGaming project’s visibility.
The SOFTSWISS team looks forward to sharing the details of the Geo-Distributed Redirect feature and other product updates at the upcoming SiGMA Europe Expo. Current and potential partners can book a meeting with company representatives at stand 2145 through the contact form.
