SlotsCalendar AWARDS – iGaming’s Best, Chosen By Players
SlotsCalendar, an iGaming affiliate platform owned by GSH Online Media, builds on the success of its inaugural Awards, given in May 2024. Given the brand’s established status in the industry and the size of its community, the brand decided to invite its player base to decide the best names in iGaming.
For its 2025 edition, the SlotsCalendar Awards Gala returns to the iGaming Club Conference in Malaga, happening on May 28th. The Awards categories for this year are as follows:

- Excellence in Bonus Variety
- Industry Standard in Responsible Gambling
- Live Casino of the Year

While the idea of iGaming Awards is not new to the industry, the SlotsCalendar Awards are unique for a simple reason: winners are voted by players from the entire iGaming community.
The Significance and Resonance of These Awards
The uniqueness of these awards makes them particularly important in iGaming. Placing the decision-making strictly in the hands of the player is a fundamental shift in the iGaming community.
Moreover, it represents an approach that is in tune with the rise in popularity of community involvement. Player-centric decisions and strategies have increased in significance in recent times, and SlotsCalendar’s Awards ceremony spearheads a new method of doing so.
A special touch to these Awards is a raffle organized by SlotsCalendar. Players voting qualify for a raffle rewarding participation. Once the player sends their votes, they qualify automatically.
Explaining the 2nd Edition – What’s New?
In 2024, the first edition of the SlotsCalendar Awards introduced seven categories for which players could vote. This year, the number rose to ten, and the new additions are:
- Best New Casino – a category for freshly launched casino brands
- Best Sports Betting Platform – a recognition of the best brand known for its bookmaking
- Best Crypto Casino – an acknowledgment of the rising importance of cryptocurrencies in iGaming
In addition, several returning categories have been renamed. The purpose is for them to carry a more resonant and distinguished name that better reflects the significance of the award.

SlotsCalendar Successfully Launches in the U.S. Market

SlotsCalendar has launched its tailor-made platform for American users: https://www.slotscalendar.us. The brand’s clear aim is to provide a digital environment where impartial and informative content is optimized specifically for the American market.
SlotsCalendar has turned itself into a well-established brand in the iGaming field, with over 3 million users in 2023 and a forecast of 7 million for 2024. It managed to do so by blending a clear identity philosophy and a properly optimized platform from a technical point of view. The brand succeeded in becoming an authoritative and trustworthy voice in the industry in which it is active.
The platform’s launch in the international iGaming scene has seen it gain traction in the British market as well. Despite the UKGC’s notoriously exigent standards, SlotsCalendar’s quality-driven approach has propelled it into a successful yet legally compliant sphere in the UK. Given its rising popularity among players without cutting any regulatory corners, the brand proved to be a viable business model.
Consequently, expansion in other markets was a natural step forward. In its data-driven fashion, SlotsCalendar’s staff commenced a project that aimed at replicating its success. The US, a market where iGaming is becoming increasingly popular, was identified as a viable field that could benefit from SlotsCalendar’s expertise in the digital gaming world.
Viorel Stan, CEO of SlotsCalendar, said: “The complete faith I have in the team we built at SlotsCalendar leads me to be utterly convinced that our brand can work in any market. Our belief in unabashedly providing relevant and unbiased information is a universal value that we implement in every single thing we do. By adapting our business model according to the necessities of each state where iGaming is a legally accepted source of entertainment, we ensure that we speak to the needs of our users. We’re delighted to make yet another leap in our quest to prove why our vision, paired with a relentless work ethic, can be of great help to any player out there.”
