Golden Whale announce multi-year extension with Stadtcasino Baden Group
Fast-growing data science company renews deal with Swiss casino group to further drive retention and provide ML-based gamification optimisation to its B2B arm, Gamanza Group AG
Golden Whale Productions, the innovative data science company specialising in AI-powered solutions and machine learning for the iGaming industry, has announced it has signed a multi-year extension to its current agreement with Stadtcasino Baden Group.
Having previously worked with the Swiss casino group to drive customer retention and thereby increase its market share, Golden Whale will continue to support the business in this capacity while also cooperating more intensively with the Stadtcasino Baden Group’s B2B arm, Gamanza.
A subsidiary of Stadtcasino Baden Group, Gamanza has a strong track record for creating software for the iGaming industry and counts GamanzaEngage – Switzerland’s leading software suite for online casinos – among its recent success stories. Now supported by Golden Whale, the B2B brand will be able to draw on powerful ML-based optimisation to further enhance its offering.
One of the main aspects Golden Whale will focus on as part of the extended deal is using its advanced, data-driven technologies to turbo-charge Gamanza’s existing gamification suite, with this empowering the group to offer an even more comprehensive promotional toolkit to its clients.
As such, the renewed partnership offers considerable strategic importance for both Gamanza and the Stadtcasino Baden Group brand, while also offering Golden Whale the opportunity to deploy its ML systems and predictive optimisation tools among a large and highly-engaged customer base.
Eberhard Dürrschmid, Chief Executive Officer at Golden Whale, said: “Golden Whale is delighted to announce we’ve agreed a multi-year extension to our current deal with Stadtcasino Baden Group that will see us assist the company with both player retention and increasing market share.
“As part of the agreement, we’ll continue the strong work we’ve done with the brand over the past couple of years while also cooperating more closely with its main B2B arm, Gamanza, to bring our pioneering form of ML-based optimisation directly onto the latter’s gamification suite.”
Christian Aumüller, Chief Executive Officer at Stadtcasino Baden Group, said: “As one of the gaming industry’s true trailblazers, Stadtcasino Baden Group is very happy to renew its partnership with Golden Whale Productions – a company that, like us, now sits at the very forefront of iGaming innovation.
“The decision to extend the deal was made with a view to drive customer retention and further increase our market share, while also optimising the products and services we offer to B2B clients through Gamanza. With AI and machine learning both having a big role to play in the future of iGaming, the collaboration will hold great strategic importance for us going forward.”

ACR Poker is giving players another chance to turn their online grind into a live poker dream with an Online Day 1 Qualifier to the coveted Battle of Malta (BOM) Main Event which guarantees €1.5 million.

This year, players can skip the live Day 1 Main Event grind and qualify straight from home with ACR Poker’s Online Day 1 Qualifier this Sunday, September 14th, heading to Malta already locked in for a payout.
The Online Day 1 Qualifier starts at 10:30am ET with a $625 + $75 buy-in, and competitors will play down to 15% of the field. Players who survive will receive the tournament’s minimum cash when they check in at the BOM live event and their chip count will be automatically transferred to Day 2 in Malta (November 2nd-5th, 2025).
Players seeking lower-cost routes to the Online Day 1 Qualifier can join Last-Chance Satellites, including a $66 Mega Satellite on Sunday, September 14th at 9:05am ET, with Super Sats Freerolls and $6.60 feeders available starting Friday, September 12th.
“Opportunities like this are what poker is all about,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “The Battle of Malta is a bucket-list event for many players, and being able to qualify online makes it accessible to everyone, with a shot at huge prizes in one of Europe’s most exciting live events. I love that ACR is opening that door for players everywhere.”
BOM runs from October 28th-November 5th at Casino Malta, featuring a revamped nine-day schedule with a €2 million guarantee, including the €2,200 buy-in ACR Super High Roller and plenty of exciting off-the-felt activities. Last October, BOM reached new heights with a prize pool exceeding €4.7 million and participants from over 60 countries.
In July, ACR Poker and BOM hosted the first-ever online edition of the beloved European live poker festival, featuring 68 events and $5 million guaranteed. With buy-ins from $5.50, players of all levels had the chance to join the fun and compete for great prizes.
