This 5×3 high volatility video slot showcases the natural beauty of the Everglades with a splash of cash via respins, jackpots, symbol collection, Armadillo Link, and free spins. Players can win again and again thanks to the wild respins, accumulating animal power with each win and building up suspense for the chance to trigger an Armadillo Link – an exciting jackpot feature where each full column of credit prizes also upgrades the jackpot with the top jackpot set at 10,000x for filling all 15 positions.
Hacksaw Gaming’s Harvest Wilds slot has launched today exclusively with Swedish state-owned operator Svenska Spel Sport & Casino, 2 weeks before the official network-wide launch. The exclusive agreement will see players at Svenska Spel Sport & Casino able to play this new harvest farm-produce themed 7×7 grid slot, featuring a max win of upto 10,000x. Harvest Wilds has a Hoppers™sunflower multiplier symbol that can grow in value and is also wild!
In the twelfth edition of this successful series, Play’n GO has introduced a new player to their Joker series. Their name? The Love Joker. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, this fun-lovin’ Joker is here to put their own spin and spread the love for this epic collection of games. This is a series – like many others in Play’n GO’s diverse portfolio of series – that has resonated well with players across the board, specifically Free Reelin’ Joker and Fire Joker Freeze. A fast-paced game with strong goals to retain player engagement; unlock the hearts to unlock the prize. The feeling of progression and accomplishment is ever-present to keep players on the edge of their seats. Immersed in entertainment.
Having already made significant in-roads into the nascent Dutch casino market last year, sought-after software provider Stakelogic is picking up right where it left off in 2022 with the release of a Netherlands exclusive in Up6Timer. The new slot, which fuses the look and feel of a classic fruit machine with a range of modern features, boasts an unusual reel matrix that enables players to manually adjust both the number of reels and the total number of paylines. Starting off as a classic 3×3 slot with five paylines, players can increase their number of games up to six times, extending the layout to a huge eight reels and 30 ways to win.
Swintt is raising a glass to players this month with the release of their brand-new Cocktail Book slot. The latest title in the in-demand software developers’ Premium Slot collection, Cocktail Book is a classic 5×3 game that features five fixed paylines and a thirst-quenching theme. Set in a tropical island paradise, the game invites players to mix up the perfect blend of fresh fruits, BAR symbols, liberty bells and lucky red sevens as they say “chin, chin” to maximum multipliers of 5,500x their bet.
Blueprint Gaming has hit another rich seam of gameplay with its latest prospector-themed slot, Gold Strike Bonanza. The leading slot developer has taken the popularity of Gold Frenzy, the classic Reel Time Gaming (RTG) title and delivered further dynamite to the action thanks to its Free Games modifiers and the added possibility of huge wins from the configurable Jackpot King functionality. As with the original, three or more explosive TNT Scatter symbols in view awards a minimum of 10 Free Games, with all Prospector symbols acting as a wild and collecting the cash value of every golden nugget that settles on the reels on the same spin.
Yggdrasil, the leading worldwide publisher of online gambling content, and Peter & Sons have unlocked the doors to the underworld in latest release Xibalba. As the 12 demon lords of Xibalba gather, brave adventurers are greeted with an initial 5×3 reel set, with the height expanding with every winning spin. Each successful spin also increases a win multiplier by 1x, with winning combinations being removed in the classic ‘cascading’ style slot. Wilds can also grow during the game, with them not being removed by cascades, but ensuring every symbol added to the reel above it is also a wild.
Push Gaming whisks players off to the plains of North America to witness a clash of ferocious beasts in its new slot, Bison Battle. Testament to Push’s reputation for being able to develop a diverse range of titles, Bison Battle comes hot on the heels of recent release Fire Hopper, upping the ante with an action-packed game style, as well as a theme inspired by a well-established land-based player favourite. Set across the Great Plains, rowdy and raging Bisons butt heads in an eventful base game with Red Bison dictating when the wins drop. Their appearance can bring about an explosive Bison Clash that can grant instant prize coins and multipliers.
iSoftBet, welcomes players to ancient Greece for an exciting slot adventure on new release, Colossus: Hold & Win. Situated in the shadow of the magnificent Colossus of Rhodes – a mythical statue dedicated to the Greek sun-god Helios – the 5-reel, 20-payline slot features Multiplier Wilds and the unique Colossus Hold & Win Respins round that offers players massive payouts. The almighty Colossus Wild serves as the most valuable symbol in the game, expanding when it lands on a winning line and resulting in a multiplier of up to 10x being added.
Pragmatic Play, invites its players to harness the luck of the Irish in its dazzling new slot experience, Gold Party®. Set in the beautiful landscape of the Emerald Isle, a harmonious background compliments the gold-clad reels in this 3×5 slot, with a lucky leprechaun accompanying players on their journey. The paytable lists nine through to Ace as the low paying symbols, with Harps, Mushroom Houses, Horseshoes, Unicorns, and the Lucky Leprechaun himself taking up the higher value symbols.
Playson has added to its Timeless Fruit Slots portfolio with its latest release, Joker’s Coins: Hold and Win. The 3×3 title features 5 paylines and comes complete with captivating audio-visuals that have become synonymous with Hold and Win titles, proving to increase player engagement and retention. Playson’s latest release offers eye-catching photorealistic fruits as symbols, while coins appear as Bonus symbols and the Joker character functions as a Wild.
Betsoft Gaming is already setting standards for 2022 with latest release Gold Tiger Ascent. Taking players up the snow-capped mountains to the Gold Tiger’s lair in search of lucky winnings, this 3 reel, 3 row, 10 fixed paylines slot is re-imagining gaming for the new year. Waiting in his snowy temple home between the clouds and the mountain peaks is the benevolent Gold Tiger. He brings Magic Red Envelopes with EVERY SPIN on your journey to prosperity. Your task is to be ready as the envelopes spill out the prizes in a cascade of golden fire.
We recently sat down with BetBrothers’ Head of Growth & Strategy, Borja Imbergamo, to talk about the company’s mission to become a global leader in regulated sports betting markets. He discusses the principles driving BetBrothers strategy, its unique value to players and operators, and what it takes to build a trusted affiliate brand in today’s market.
Could you please share a bit about your background and experience within the iGaming industry?
My journey in the iGaming industry began more than 11 years ago. I was one of the few professional bettors who successfully turned sports betting into a full-time career. Later, I became a professional tipster and in the meantime, 8 years ago, I had the opportunity to build one of the leading affiliate websites in Spain from the ground up.
During that project I was involved in every aspect of the business — from content creation, SEO, and marketing to sales, product development and team management. Being part of a small team meant I had to wear many hats, which I believe gave me a 360-degree understanding of the industry and the skills needed to launch and scale successful projects. As well as identify and manage the right people to make them happen.
Currently, as Head of Growth & Strategy at Betbrothers, I’m applying this experience to lead the expansion into more than 20 GEOs. I’m confident we’ll achieve this ambitious goal thanks to the strong and talented team we have built.
What’s Betbrother’s mission, and what sets it apart in the affiliate marketing landscape?
At Betbrothers, our priority is always the player. Our core mission is “Connecting Players with Safer Bets”. This means helping users enjoy sports betting as a form of entertainment — guiding them to bet responsibly, in ways that suit their style and preferences.
A key part of this is ensuring users are betting in safe and regulated environments. We are fully committed to working only with licensed operators, and we invest significant resources in matching users with the right bookmakers in each market. Ones that are compliant with local regulations.
We believe regulated markets, despite their limitations, offer the safest and most transparent experience for users. Through our content and platform, we aim to promote responsible gambling by helping users understand their options, set limits and stay in control of their behaviour. Ultimately, we see our role as both a guide and a safeguard — making the betting experience safer and more enjoyable.
BetBrothers is only partnering with operators holding licenses in regulated markets. What is the strategic reasoning behind this focus?
Our focus on regulated markets comes from user-centric philosophy. We want our users to enjoy sports betting in a safe, transparent and well-regulated way — even if sometimes it means fewer promotions or tighter restrictions. Licensed operators provide clear rules, secure transactions, and fair play. It leads to a much more positive user experience.
From a business perspective, partnering exclusively with regulated operators also ensures long-term sustainability. These operators have invested significant time and resources to obtain licenses, which means they are committed to the market and are here to stay. This gives us the confidence we need to build long term partnerships.
In short, working with licensed operators aligns with both our values and our strategic vision — promoting sports betting as a safe form of entertainment, while building a trustworthy and future-proof business.
From an operator’s perspective, what is the unique value that BetBrothers brings to the table?
First and most important: we bring high-quality, compliant traffic. Our strategy is heavily focused on organic acquisition, which we believe is the most valuable and sustainable traffic (and not only in iGaming). But we don’t just deliver volume. We are focused on providing users with the right content to help them make informed decisions — where, how and when to place their bets. This results in users who truly want to play with a specific operator. Players that are loyal, conscious of their choices, and more likely to stick around in the long term.
Additionally, we bring deep industry knowledge to the table. Our team has over 25 years of combined experience, allowing us to create content that is not only optimized and compliant, but also useful.
On top of that, we are building Betbrothers as a globally recognized and trusted brand. One that players all over the world can rely on. When users see an operator on our side, they’ll know it’s fully licensed, reputable and safe. Because we have done the due diligence for them already. That trust is a key part of the value we offer to both users and operators alike.
How Betbrothers is going to differentiate itself from competition in terms of content and product experience?
Our focus is — and always will be — the user. Every piece of content we produce is designed to deliver real value, helping users to make smarter betting decisions and improve their strategy. We know what players are looking for, how to speak their language, and how
to strike the right balance between honest, user-first content and effective promotion of trusted operators.
In an industry where a lot of the content is AI-generated and tailored primarily for Google, we are doing things differently. We are not writing for algorithms — we’re writing for people. Our editorial team is made up of experts with hands-on industry knowledge.
Another key differentiator is our approach to user-generated content. We want our platform to be a space where users share their opinions, voice their concerns, and help each other out. We see UGC as a way to create community, improve transparency, and provide even more value — with our team always there to guide and support where needed. We believe that strong content combined with smart, intuitive UX is the best strategy to grow organically and stand out in a crowded space.
What’s the long-term vision for BetBrothers when it comes to expanding into new markets?
Our long-term vision is to become the most trusted and recognizable brand in the world when it comes to regulated sports betting. We want users to know exactly what to expect when they visit Betbrothers: transparent information, responsible guidance and a curated list of fully licensed operators.
We are committed to expanding only into regulated jurisdictions, where we can guarantee a safe, legal and responsible betting experience for our users. We’re already active in focus markets such as Spain and Greece, along with a growing number of others across Europe and beyond. With more than 20 GEOs currently in progress, our goal is to establish a strong local presence wherever sports betting is legal and regulated. We want to become a regional authority in each market while maintaining the same standards of quality.
Looking ahead two to three years, what does success look like for BetBrothers?
In two to three years, success for Betbrothers means being the go-to platform for both users and operators. For users, we want to be the most trusted and reliable source of information about legal, regulated bookmakers. A place where they know they’ll find expert, honest and useful content to guide their betting decisions.
For operators, we aim to be the ideal long-term partner — providing high-quality, compliant traffic from engaged users across multiple markets. When an operator is looking for a partner they can trust, with a global footprint and a focus sustainability, we want Betbrothers to be the first name that comes to mind.
Beyond business success, our broader goal is to help push the industry in a more responsible, transparent direction. More and more countries are moving toward regulation and safer gambling practices. We want to be part of that transformation. To play a key role in building an industry that’s not just profitable, but also fair, honest and truly centered around the player.

1. In an industry often driven by affiliate commissions, how do you personally define “trust”? Why do you believe it holds more long-term value than short-term revenue gains?
The best way to build trust with your audience is through a customer-centric approach. That means prioritizing accurate and honest reviews, rather than focusing purely on commercial interests. When visitors find the information, they’re looking for, you build customer loyalty. In the long run, loyalty creates far more value than quick gains from promoting questionable casino brands with flat fees and hybrid deals.
2. Given the financial incentives at play, how do you ensure your reviews remain truly objective and transparent?
Our casino reviews are always factually correct and honest, regardless of the commissions we are receiving. Our review criteria are available on our website, and our scoring system remains consistent, unaffected by affiliate partnerships. We clearly disclose that we use affiliate links but we always side with our visitors. That kind of transparency might not maximize revenue, but it builds trust and forges strong relationships with our players.
3. Have you ever had to reject or cut ties with a high-paying casino partner over ethical concerns? Can you walk us through one such decision?
Yes, that happens from time to time. We have a contact form on our website that allows players to contact us when they feel they are being treated unfairly. We received several complaints from players and escalated these to our partner. Upon doing some research we realized that other casino portals were reporting similar problems with this operator, which led to us updating our reviews and dropping them in our rankings.-
4. What are the key red flags you look for when evaluating whether or not to recommend a casino operator to your audience?
We always make sure that the casino operators we are listing are properly licensed and have a good reputation in the iGaming industry. Red flags are unfair bonus terms, missing translations, withdrawal issues, unprofessional customer support, and a lack of responsible gambling tools. If a casino operator has lots of unresolved complaints on Trustpilot or Casinomeister, we simply don’t promote them.
5. From your experience, how do players pick up on bias or manipulation in reviews — and what can platforms do to avoid giving that impression?
Players are much smarter today and exchange information on forums and in their circles. They are often seasoned and have played at online casinos for many years. They can spot inaccurate reviews right away and know exactly what they are looking for in a casino. Our reviews therefore always focus on the pros and cons, the bonus conditions and real expert experiences from hands-on testing of the casino.
6. Many affiliate sites claim to be “independent,” but not all deliver on that promise. What practical steps can review platforms take to actually earn user trust?
Be customer-centric and focus on user intent. Players visit your site to find out which casinos are reliable and trustworthy. Make sure your reviews are up to date and unbiased. Avoid promoting shady operators that could damage your reputation with your audience. To earn trust, you need to publish honest recommendations based on facts rather than sales pitches.
7. How do you collect, verify, and incorporate player feedback into your rating system?
We have a contact form on our site for player complaints, and we also make use of external sources such as forums and watchdog sites like Casinomeister, Trustpilot and Casino Guru. If we notice patterns related to specific casino groups or licenses, we incorporate a warning in our reviews as well. Player feedback is one of the most valuable tools we have to ensure our reviews are honest and reflect real user experiences.
8. Do licensing authorities and regulatory frameworks factor into your trust scores — or is your assessment more focused on real user experience?
Both matter, but reputation is most important. If a casino is not properly licensed, we will either choose not to list it or highlight the risks associated with an unlicensed casino in terms of player protection and payouts. However, we do list some casinos that operate under a weaker license when we know from previous experience that they are overall reliable and trustworthy.
9. With the rise of AI-generated content and fake reviews, how can affiliate sites protect their authenticity and credibility at scale?
All our reviews are produced in-house by real casino experts who have been working in the iGaming industry for many years. We test casinos ourselves and focus on detailed reviews based on real-life experiences and industry knowledge. While we use AI for
mundane tasks like spell-checking, we believe AI-generated reviews ultimately represent fake experiences and do not reflect the unbiased expert opinions and recommendations that players deserve.
10. Looking to the future, do you see reputation becoming a key differentiator among affiliates? If so, how will users — and partners — measure that reputation?
As the market matures, users are choosing review sites based on their interests, honesty, and reputation. These signals are picked up by Google and will directly impact your rankings. Users will look at how sites respond to user complaints, how accurate their reviews are, and whether they truly advocate for casino players. The affiliates that focus on credibility will be the preferred choice for players who are searching for real reviews from industry experts.
