Golden Rock Studios and Caleta Gaming join forces to make the perfect match!
The new deal between Caleta Gaming and Golden Rock Studios will see two businesses almost perfectly in synch with each other’s growth trajectory plans combining their complementary expertise and skills to create a formidable new partnership in the iGaming world.
Caleta Gaming boast a solid and already successful end-to-end RGS technology providing an attractive portfolio of games, strategically designed and built to meet market and customer needs. However, the addition of Golden Rock Studios existing set of slot and table games, as well as bring across the new and exciting titles currently in development, will further enhance the options available for Caleta Gaming’s current and future clients.
Following a restructure of the business and realignment of company objectives Golden Rock Studios have spent the past 12 months working on some truly innovative slot games and features, with the first of these games Bonus Only due live in just a matter of weeks. Following on from that will see regular game releases to the Caleta Gaming network mixing up existing and brand-new titles.
Caleta Gaming bring to the table their dynamic RGS platform, seamless API integration processes and agile game development. Whilst already boasting an array of player engagement tools such as Free Spins, Progressive Jackpots and Buy-In features. The team have also already been started developing new promotional product additions with Tournaments, Instant Wins and Cashback tools, further enhancing their offering.
A strong network of happy clients already benefit from the Caleta Gaming platform offering, but plans have already begun with the aim to enter some strategic regulated markets. Obtaining some key market licences will help grow the platforms global footprint and further enhance the attractiveness for any future clients. As the distribution grows into new regions and markets the partnership will also mean that Caletas client base will soon also get exclusive early access to some of Golden Rock Studios upcoming unique new games such as 5 Fruits Frenzy, Remember Remember and Super Money World. As well as future collaborations together to make games which will be exclusive to Caleta.
“Coming together at this time perfectly complements each other’s growth trajectory as both businesses have high aspirations to transition to the next level. A combined vision to produce and distribute unique and innovative gaming content supported by a strong platform and product offering across a strong strategic network of markets will, and already has, helped the teams to build a strong relationship with long term success at the forefront of their efforts” said Fabiola Jaeger, CEO and co-founder of Caleta Gaming.
Shane Regan, Chief Operating Officer for Golden Rock Studios says: “We are truly excited about signing this deal with Caleta to bring our content live via their new and cutting-edge platform. This deal sees two businesses whose specialities lie in different aspects of the industry combining. So, partnering up and building out a new combined strategy will really go a long way to helping both businesses reach their aspirations. So far, we have already started to work very closely together and our first game going live has seen us get the partnership well under way. We also have a packed release schedule already in place for this year and it’s been really fun working together with the team at Caleta. With such a promising start under our belts, we could not be more excited about the new opportunities that lie ahead in 2022 and beyond with Caleta.”
Felipe Moritz, Project Manager for Caleta Gaming says this about the new partnership: “Synergy! That’s the keyword for this partnership. Combining the innovative concepts and game design from Golden Rock Studios, with our experienced production team allows us to deliver awesome games with agility and high quality. It’s been exciting working with GRS. Our first game together is fresh out of the oven, and it is just the first step of our journey. Hope everyone enjoys and have lots of fun!”
2022 is officially the year of the Tiger, which gives extra bite to the first game being released in this new partnership. Wild Animal-themed game Big Bad Beasts is the first game both teams have worked on together and marks the start of a very exciting new chapter. Both teams really do have the bit between their teeth now and a true ‘Eye of the Tiger’ focus to make sure 2022 is a strong and successful year, with ten games already planned for release in the joint-venture roadmap, the outlook is promising.

Movers and Shakers – Beyond integration: Why system interoperability is the real game changer

“Movers and Shakers” is a dynamic monthly column dedicated to exploring the latest trends, developments, and influential voices in the iGaming industry. Powered by GameOn and supported by HIPTHER, this op-ed series delves into the key players, emerging technologies, and regulatory changes shaping the future of online gaming. Each month, industry experts offer their insights and perspectives, providing readers with in-depth analysis and thought-provoking commentary on what’s driving the iGaming world forward. Whether you’re a seasoned professional or new to the scene, “Movers and Shakers” is your go-to source for staying ahead in the rapidly evolving iGaming landscape.
Dominic Le Garsmeur (CPO) at Fincore, says integrations without a clear interoperability strategy add technical and operational debt, hampering future growth.
System integrations are hugely important for any online sportsbook or casino, adding capabilities and features to drive growth. But integrating without considering and optimising interoperability can do more harm than good by adding technical and operational debt to the business and ultimately hitting growth.
Integrating without interoperability pushes information from one system to another, but the connection itself has no intelligence. It’s a mechanical link, and the systems remain fundamentally separate, each operating with its own distinct rules. Any real understanding, like why that data was sent or what other processes it should trigger, is lost, creating data silos that are technically connected but strategically disconnected.
System interoperability provides the intelligence the connection lacks, establishing a shared operational model for the platform so all systems can act in concert. Most importantly, it creates a future-proof foundation, allowing new capabilities and features to be added with agility and confidence, turning the platform into an engine for innovation rather than a source of technical debt.
Before looking at why interoperability is more powerful than integration, and how companies can solve it, it’s important to understand how disconnects between platforms and systems occur in the first place.
Why does disconnection happen?
Operators acquire their tech stacks in different ways, but usually through a combination of building, inheriting legacy tech, acquisition and third-party providers. This often leads to platform and system silos with little to no compatibility between them.
Ultimately, disconnected systems drag down delivery and without interoperability, companies waste time reconciling platforms and tech rather than advancing forward.
Interoperability is more powerful than integration
Integration often means linking systems at a basic level, but interoperability ensures that data, logic and workflows are aligned and extensible.
It’s critical to have a strategic data layer and shared data structures that enables standardising of data representations, aligning systems at the logic level, not just the interface, and building an architecture designed to unify and extend across platforms.
In complex industries such as gaming, where tech plays such an important role in the user experience and the trust consumers have in brands, system interoperability is the only way to scale with control. In short, integration links, interoperability empowers.
Why interoperability is such a challenge in the gaming industry
Each integration is unique. Why? Because the combination of legacy systems, niche vendors and varying regulations in markets across the world means there is no blueprint for operators to follow.
Remember, most operator platforms are now decades old and were not built with modularity or openness in mind. And even those developing new platforms and systems from scratch often lack the in-house capability to design for interoperability from the get-go.
The risk of not achieving interoperability
When systems don’t interoperate, things start to fall apart. For example, delivery can grind to a halt, with every new feature launch or market entry becoming a grind. There are compliance risks, too, especially when it comes to fractured data and an increased risk of errors and audit gaps.
Then, of course, there is the poor player experience that will be provided. This could be anything from glitchy games to failed deposits and even the wrong marketing communications being sent to the wrong player cohorts.
It also impacts an operator’s ability to develop and innovate, as IT and tech become reactive rather than proactive. And in such a competitive market, this can see a brand quickly fall behind the curve.
How to solve the interoperability conundrum
Ensuring interoperability is a complex and comprehensive undertaking, but there are some high-level things operators can do.
This starts with standardising critical data flows and logic, not just the interface. Remember, a single view of data is what ensures all the platforms, systems and networks communicate with each other in the same language.
Operators should also design for change, as architecture must support long-term growth and plug-and-play modularity. In most cases, it’s best to invest in strategic partners, not just tools.
How strategic partners can help
Partners such as Fincore can provide the strategic clarity operators need, defining what interoperability looks like for them and based on their business goals. We also bring execution muscle – we don’t just design it, we build it.
The right partner also brings compliance confidence. Companies such as Fincore are highly experienced when it comes to interoperability, and everything we do stands up to regulatory scrutiny.
This can be seen in our proven track record for delivering interoperability for everything from complex migrations to global-scale game roll-outs.
A real-world example of interoperability
Fincore worked with a US-based gaming services provider whose legacy systems across its land-based venues had created silos in payments, loyalty and in-resort experiences.
The solution we proposed saw us design and deliver a digital wallet that became the unified digital layer across the physical properties. We also integrated deeply with multiple rigid legacy systems to provide secure and compliant interoperability at scale.
The result? We delivered on time, unlocked a new digital product line and created a long-term tech foundation for the company to continue to build on.
When it comes to integrations, you can always wire systems together, but if you don’t do it in the right way, you get chaos. Interoperability is about creating order within platforms and systems, which in turn allows for unlimited scaling and growth.
And that’s why interoperability is the real game-changer.
