Classic provider 1spin4win debuts Japanese slot line with Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win

The online casino game provider presents a unique iGaming product, setting in motion a Japanese slot lineup that is more than just several similar games united by one name, like their prominent Lucky Jane collection. The four slots will tell four immersive stories and release over four months, with one game launched monthly.
Kicking off the series is Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win, a tale of two ninjas and their wise sensei from the dojo of the Yamashiro village near Mount Fuji on a quest to prevent the shogun from claiming the ancient relics the tiger clan has protected for centuries.
Although the focus is on the story, which promises to only get deeper with each new game, 1spin4win stays true to straightforward mechanics, making sure that the rules are easy to understand from the get-go.
The Bonus action of choice on the 5×3 grid is Hold and Win, which is known for driving anticipation for wins and eliciting powerful emotions. A classic Hold and Win game starts when three or more coins appear on the reels in one spin. These and all other coins in the round remain on the reels throughout the game. Players are presented with three starting respins, which refresh every time a new coin drops. The goal is to fill the reels with as many coins as you can until respins run out.
The Bonus round in Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win offers two Jackpots: Mini at x100 and Mega at x1,000, upping the stakes. To claim the former, players need to find the special Mini Coin, and to grab the other, they need to secure 15 coins.
Olga Bogdanova, the Art Director at 1spin4win, said, “Creating Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win and other slots in the lineup meant that we needed to do thorough historical and cultural research. As a result, you will see more than just elements from Japanese popular culture in these games — you will be completely immersed in the unique locations and invested in the stories of characters from medieval Japan.”
Tiger Steps Hold and Win has already stirred up great interest during its exclusive pre-release on April 1 in such big casinos as Irwin, Gizbo, Jet, Izzi, and Fresh. You can play the demo on 1spin4win’s website.

Trends in affiliate marketing in 2025 from Boomerang Partners: AI, Personalized Engagement, Crypto, Betting, and Tournaments
Affiliate marketing in 2025 has evolved far beyond just boosting traffic or generating clicks — it’s now all about building value-rich ecosystems and partnerships where each user interaction is fine-tuned for maximum relevance and effectiveness.
Boomerang Partners, a rapidly growing global brand behind the annual Golden Boomerang Awards for affiliate teams around the world, shares insights about the key trends of 2025 in the affiliate marketing industry. These trends are driven by advancements in AI, blockchain, and personalization technologies.
AI-powered optimization
Advanced AI tools empower affiliates to launch highly personalized campaigns on a large scale. By analyzing user behavior in real time, these tools help marketers anticipate user intent and deliver customized content that speaks directly to distinct audience needs.
With AI-powered tools, affiliate managers can plan, execute, and evaluate campaigns with minimal human intervention. This saves time when adjusting strategies and making data-driven decisions.
Personalized engagement
Using data on user behavior and preferences, affiliate managers tailor content, advertising campaigns, and product recommendations. This leads to increased engagement and conversions.
AI-powered personalization relies heavily on real-time insights into user behavior. Key elements include maintaining contextual relevance, steering clear of excessive segmentation, and optimizing content dynamically. Instead of relying on fixed strategies, marketers now continuously refine campaigns using live data. To maximize impact, marketers should combine AI solutions with A/B testing processes, forming a feedback loop that enhances content effectiveness with each iteration.
Crypto betting boom
In 2025, integrating cryptocurrencies into iGaming affiliate marketing will become increasingly prominent. This trend is fueled by industry growth and the increasing adoption of blockchain technology. Using cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum increases the security of transactions and provides exposure to an international audience. Cryptocurrencies also open up new revenue streams and foster innovation in the field.
Affiliates integrating cryptocurrency into their platforms have seen advantages like quicker payment processing, reduced transaction costs, and enhanced security. Built on decentralized technology, crypto promotes greater transparency, helping to foster trust compared to conventional centralized financial systems.
Affiliate tournaments
Industry tournaments boost brand visibility and help build strong affiliate communities. Affiliate tournaments have become a trend in the industry. They are mainly organized by affiliate programs and feature valuable prizes — from iPhones and MacBooks to luxury cars and cash rewards. Boomerang Partners took it a step further by launching the annual Global Boomerang Partners Awards.
This year, Boomerang Partners is hosting its second annual tournament for affiliates worldwide, the Golden Boomerang Awards 2025, it runs through May 11. More than 400 teams are participating. Monthly prizes are given out for completing intermediate tasks. The top 30 contestants will reach the finals and compete for 11 awards, including the Grand Prix. They will also be able to attend the global networking event in Milan at San Siro. Registration for the tournament is open until May 5. There’s still time to register before the final prize drawing on May 3. The organizer will ensure the fulfillment of dreams. The winner will choose how to use the prize – for travel, education, or a top device.
