Karamba, the B2C division of Aspire Global, has launched its first pure Pay N Play casino. Griffon Casino has been launched today around the world but initially as a pure Pay N Play exclusively in Finland.
Griffon provides world class mobile entertainment, with a fast-loading site, refined search and resume play functions, and many adventurous promotions that bring players even closer to their favourite games for valued rewards.
The new state-of-the-art site has been built specifically to enable the benefits of Trustly, the leading global payments provider. This partnership delivers an extensive range of payment services, industry-leading KYC, enhanced fraud protection, and a frictionless gaming experience. As a platform custom-built from the ground-up, Griffon integrates the best technology and products in the market today, with no legacy systems to negatively impact a player’s experience.

We have built the product with player needs paramount – bringing together the best games, on the best platform, with the best processes, giving customers a quick and easy experience that we know they so badly want. We have big plans for the future to expand our Pay N Play offering far more widely and see it as a key part of our product range long-term.”
Neal Kydd, Head of Brand at Karamba, said: “We thought a lot about what would be the best entry into the Pay N Play market and came up with a unique all mobile product, combining a slick registration model with an adventure brand. By embedding our retention effort, we strove to create higher value for the player. What makes Griffon really special is ensuring that players get to feast on the games as easily as possible and are not let down by a poor registration or cash-out experience. We believe the new Pay N Play at Griffon offers the best in casino entertainment and is what the future of online gaming could look like.”
Karamba’s adventure brand is based on the mythical creature from fantasy novels. Griffons are said to be highly intelligent creatures that were enlisted to guard the gold of the Gods, symbolising strength and prowess in popular culture. Griffon Casino shares these qualities, delivering the finest casino entertainment and truly immersive experiences.
The games available at Griffon Casino are provided by some of the leading software brands in the industry including Pariplay, Play’n Go, iSoft Bet, Blueprint, Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, Evolution Gaming, and Microgaming.

The anatomy of a high-performing iGaming platform: a guide from Slotegrator
Slotegrator, a gambling solutions provider and game aggregator, has released new downloadable material about the key components of a successful online casino platform. The guide includes practical checklists to help beginners set up platforms from scratch and experts enhance their projects.
In the iGaming industry, a project’s long-term success depends on the power and versatility of its platform. But that platform can’t be based on any old software; just like how you can’t have a car without four wheels and an engine, there are vital components to an online casino platform.
So what are they?
Let’s start with first impressions. The frontend is the “face” of a platform. Almost 75% of players judge a gambling website based on its appearance, and 88% of users won’t return after a negative experience.
Key frontend elements include:
- Branding (visitors should understand the idea from the first glance)
- Navigation (everything should be simple and easy to find)
- Transparency (players must have easy access to relevant information)
- Localization (adoption of language, currency and cultural norms).
If the frontend is the face, the backend is the brain. It should contain all the tools for successful online casino management. A quality backend should give the operator total, real-time monitoring and control over every aspect of a business — payment processing, regulatory compliance, game statistics, player data, retention strategies, analytics, compliance, player support, and everything else.
New operators often find themselves trying to choose whether to build such a platform in-house or to outsource the job. Slotegrator’s report carefully weighs the pros and cons of each option and reaches a clear conclusion: in-house development might save a little money in the short term, but it’ll cost much more in the long run.
“We created this guide to help operators to understand what truly belongs in a successful iGaming platform. An engaging frontend and a powerful backend are essential tools for attracting and retaining players. The guide is a valuable resource for evaluating a platform’s strengths and weaknesses and building a clear promotion strategy”, says Svetlana Kirichenko, Head of Marketing at Slotegrator.
Slotegrator’s guide also includes several key checklists:
- Essential frontend functions
- Key backend features
- Necessary modules for platform architecture (featuring a real example of Slotegrator’s turnkey online casino platform.

PAGCOR ORDERS TAKEDOWN OF GAMBLING BILLBOARDS
In a memorandum issued on July 7, PAGCOR directed all licensees, suppliers, system administrators, and gaming venue operators to take down gambling ad materials, including those displayed on trains, buses, jeepneys, and taxis.
The agency emphasized that only institutional or responsible gaming campaigns—subject to PAGCOR’s approval—will be permitted moving forward.
“We have given all our licensees and stakeholders until August 15 to completely remove all gambling-related ads,” said PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco.
“Prior to that, stakeholders must also submit an inventory of their existing billboard and wallscape advertisements by July 16.”
The inventory, according to Mr. Tengco, must include the size, material, location, rental contract expiration, and the corresponding permit number from the Ad Standards Council (ASC).
The PAGCOR chief said the move is part of the state gaming agency’s commitment to promote a safer and more responsible gaming environment in the country.
“While PAGCOR is mandated to regulate the gaming industry and generate revenues for nation-building, we do not want to encourage a culture of gambling addiction,” he said.
“Regulating excessive and pervasive gambling advertisements is a critical step in protecting vulnerable sectors of society, especially the youth.”
The agency also warned against replacing the dismantled advertisements with new gambling promotions, stressing that non-compliance will be dealt with accordingly.
