EveryMatrix has enjoyed a successful first half of the year, which has seen the white label partner secure 25 new operators and open a new office in Vietnam.

The new clients from across the European and Asian regions includes Ekstra Bladet, Denmark’s largest media company, Sporting Index, Codeta, the Danish version of Anna Casino and BetOnFinance.

On the development side, the firm increased the monthly live events in OddsMatrix to 23,000 and the monthly bet type options to over 300. At the same time, its CasinoEngine solution maintained its position as the largest casino games aggregator in the industry, with more than 3,000 games from more than 40 top providers.

SIS has agreed a five-year deal with the Irish Greyhound Board (IGB) to collect and distribute greyhound racing content to online and retail operators.

The deal includes international streaming rights, enabling suppliers to utilise the firm’s SIS stream to distribute content globally.

The agreement covers more than 1,500 races a year taking place at IGB tracks Mullingar, Youghal and Tralee.

“The Irish greyhound programme is expected to develop fairly quickly, as additional broadcast opportunities are identified, and we expect both retail and online betting operators to benefit from the opportunities afforded by this new greyhound product,” said Gordon Bissett, greyhound operations manager for SIS.

Play’n GO has released Grim Muerto, a new five-reel slot enabling players to join a mariachi band to celebrate the Day of the Dead.

Available on desktop and mobile, the game features high-definition animation, distinct sound, and smooth performance, according to the firm.

“Combining best-in-class graphics, audio and traditional mariachi sounds, we’re certain that Grim Muerto will be a seductive success for both operators and customers alike,” said Martin Zettergren, chief operating officer of Play’n GO.

Asia-facing supplier Habanero has released a new slot game called Sparta.

The 5×3 reel slot allows players to select up to 25 lines. Available on desktop, tablet, or phone, it offers a variable number of free games, during which the Zeus symbol pays high and up to 1,800 times the total spin bet.

Habanero CEO Nic Ioannoy said the slot’s engaging game play and low volatility will make it a hit among modern players.

“We think Sparta will be really popular across a wide range of territories as it is a perfect combination of the old and the new,” said Ioannoy.

Microgaming has launched Fish Party SNGs, the firm’s unique take on the Jackpot Sit & Go (SNG) concept.

Based on the supplier’s Fish Party online slot, the fast-paced, three-player tournaments has a prize pool decided by the outcome of a spin, with winning reel combinations delivering big prizes.

Unlike other varieties of Jackpot SNGs, Fish Party SNGs have a progressive jackpot which increases with every game played. The rarest reel combination – three Fish Party symbols – pays out the progressive jackpot.

Casino operator SlotsMillion has integrated 60 games from Malta-based developer Pragmatic Play.

Players will have access to Pragmatic Play’s popular games such as Aladdin’s Treasure, Orbital Mining and the company’s trademark game 7 Monkeys.

SlotsMillion co-founder Alexandre Tomic said the new games are a “great fit” for its audience.

“We are always providing something new to our players and innovation is at the forefront of everything we do and everything we offer,” said Tomic. “Pragmatic Play is a really great addition to our portfolio and we look forward to integrating more games in the future.”
