United Remote spearheading strategic content upgrade with SpearHead Studios
Aggregator United Remote is in the news again, picking up more-and-more momentum with a new partnership agreement, this time with Spearhead Studios, EveryMatrix’s gaming development company.
United Remote is increasingly visible as a force to be reckoned with now that the company has successfully completed a period of intensive restructuring under the guiding hand of industry-veteran Jeremy Fall. United Remote has embraced substantial change to streamline new integrations and provide operators more profitable real-time data. This is all part of upping United Remote’s service to the iGaming industry and ensuring that the B2B-channel is given priority.
Enhancing the iGaming platform’s performance was Fall’s number one goal, which has resulted in major technology investments, adapting the agreements the company previously had put in place, de-risking the entire enterprise, and focusing very particularly on customer protection. Alongside these sweeping changes, Fall has been building a strong compliance culture as well as raising standards in terms of transparency and working with entities like AskGamblers’.
The now rapidly-growing iGaming platform has made a number of announcements in recent weeks, naming new technology partners, games suppliers and new casino signings, showing that all United Remote’s hard work is paying off.
Spearhead Studios is the real-money game production studio within the EveryMatrix group of companies, developing high-quality HTML5 video slots, table and other online real-money games. Although a relatively young company, Spearhead Studios is behind blockbusters Book of Souls and Wilds of Wall Street.
In addition, the innovative studio recently launched the bookmaker optimization tool ‘Slider Games’. Slider Games are classic casino games, such as roulette, videopoker, blackjack, and slots, aimed at sportsbook players who only have short but frequent windows of opportunity to play. By adding this new feature on their sportsbooks, operators can experience up to 20% increase in their casino revenue with this new instant cross-selling tool.
Mathias Larsson, Managing Director of Spearhead Studios, said: “Here at Spearhead Studios we believe in challenging the ordinary in everything that we do as a team, in every product we bring to the market and in every channel that we choose to partner with. United Remote are anything but ordinary, and we are all feeling powered-up with this new agreement that will take us to the heart of some very important markets.”
Jeremy Fall, CEO of United Remote said: “Spearhead Studios has some very innovative content that is already providing excellent results. We have recharged our strategy to deliver more for operators and to strengthen our offering in the market, this latest agreement with SpearHead Studios is fully in line with that.”
