Swintt granted permission to operate in the UK
Leading online casino software supplier announces much-anticipated licensing agreement to bring its award-winning catalogue of games to players at UKGC-regulated platforms
Innovative software supplier, Swintt, is delighted to announce that it has been successful in its application for a UK license, meaning players at UKGC-regulated platforms will soon be able to enjoy its extensive collection of award-winning video slots and live casino games.
Having been founded in 2019, Swintt has enjoyed a meteoric rise in the iGaming industry over the past few years and now boasts a rich and varied catalogue of over 140 state-of-the-art releases. Such has the studio’s impact been in that short space of time that the company was named Innovation in Mobile winner at the EGR B2B Awards in 2022 in recognition of its ground-breaking product offering.
Now that the company has gained approval to distribute its games in the UK, Swintt will continue with its over-arching strategy to expand into regulated markets worldwide and bring its titles to a vast new audience, many of whom may not yet be familiar with the studio’s pioneering range of bonus features.
As part of the first phase of the launch, Swintt will unveil a couple of titles in its signature Xtra range of slots, Aloha Spirit XtraLockTM and Mystic Bear XtraHoldTM, as well as the popular mobile-first release, Candy Gold. Boasting trademark features such as jackpot Tiki Spins, locking re-spins and purchasable block-busting power-ups, all three titles will offer a totally unique slot experience to UK-based players.
This popular trio of games will be further complimented by the release of a title that will no doubt strike a chord with casino fans in the country – The Crown starring Vinnie Jones. Featuring a celebrity appearance from the former Welsh international footballer turned actor and philanthropist, The Crown sees players put together a crew as they prepare for a daring heist on London’s famous jewels.
The first slot in the Swintt catalogue to feature multiple base game locations, The Crown allows players to play at one of four different venues, each of which boasts its own signature wild and bonus feature. Should they land three or more jewel scatter symbols at any location, they’ll also trigger the Crown Caper feature, where they’ll be able to collect up to 12 Free Spins with a maximum 7x prize multiplier.
The Crown should prove to be a big hit with fans of the Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels movie and will certainly provide plenty of entertainment as Swintt continues to roll out the rest of its releases across the UK.
David Mann, Chief Executive Office at Swintt, said: “Swintt is thrilled to be able to announce the issuance of a UK licence that will enable us to share our incredible collection of games with players at UKGC-licensed platforms for the very first time.
“While we should be able to announce the first of our UK partners shortly, in the meantime I can assure players that it won’t be long until they’re able to access some of our award-winning titles and experience the features that have helped us become one of the leading software providers.”

Casino Innovation to Take Center Stage at SBC Summit Malta
SBC Summit Malta, formerly the CasinoBeats Summit, will build on its strong foundation in casino innovation, providing 5,500 attendees with a comprehensive overview of the latest trends, technological advancements, and strategies shaping the casino industry’s future.
The dedicated ‘Casino Product Excellence‘ conference track will take place on Wednesday, June 11, at the InterContinental Hotel in St. Julian’s, Malta, kicking off the event’s first core day.
Rasmus Sojmark, CEO and Founder of SBC, said: “CasinoBeats Summit may have evolved, but so too have the trends and challenges faced by those operating in the casino space.
New technology, shifting player habits, and evolving regulations are constantly reshaping the industry. While the agenda is expanding to cover disciplines beyond casino, we will still explore this vertical in depth with dedicated content.”
Attendees can look forward to in-depth discussions on the rise of sweepstake casinos, the influence of video games on slot machines, and strategies for developing games that engage seasoned players while attracting new audiences.
The panel titled ‘Over Gamification of Slot Games? Are we Moving Too Far Away From the Traditional Game’ will explore the excessive addition of gamification features in slot games. Featuring experts Michael Foster (Group Head of Commercial Gaming Operations, FEG) and Dr Eyal Loz (CPO, Ruby Play), the panel will examine the impact of these new features—such as bonuses, multiplayer modes and video game tropes—on player engagement. The experts will also assess whether these innovations are enhancing the overall gaming experience or causing a disconnect amongst core players instead.
The ‘The Art of the Sequel: Balancing Innovation, Success, and Influencer Impact on Gaming Audiences’ session will offer strategies for revamping established and successful games through innovative features and marketing. Hosting a lineup of iGaming experts, including Chris McGowan (Chief Operations Officer, Scatters), David Fall (Business Development Manager, ELA Games) and Alexandru Ababei (Brand Manager, LeapSquare), the panel will provide insights on how game studios can better align with shifting player preferences. Discussions will also explore leveraging influencers to promote new titles and strategies for striking the right balance between attracting new audiences and catering to existing fans.
The panel titled ‘Platforms and Aggregators: Catalysts or Constraints in the Gaming Industry’s Future?’ will examine whether platform providers and aggregators still offer the same value for operators in 2025. The panel, which will feature experts from both sides of the argument, Ewa Kaźmierska (Managing Director, ELA Games), Kristina Murgovska (CPO, Rhino Entertainment) and Jovana Popovic-Canaki (CEO, iGP), will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of utilising these providers and their influence across the industry.
As well as the ‘Casino Product Excellence’ track, delegates will have the chance to attend dedicated tracks covering regulation, affiliation, sports betting, marketing and payments. The event will also feature two dedicated workshop rooms, offering delegates a more hands-on learning experience.
