Swintt strengthens Dutch foothold with new Circus.nl partnership
Rapidly expanding software provider launches SwinttGames and SwinttPremium releases on Netherlands-based betting brand
Following the announcement of further Netherlands-based partnership deals earlier this year, Swintt looks to have doubled down on its decision to take the Dutch market by storm after teaming up with Circus.nl to launch a wide range of games on the popular betting platform.
The new collaboration sees Circus.nl – which also offers sports betting and a dedicated live casino – host a hand-picked selection of releases from the SwinttGames and SwinttPremium catalogue, as well as exclusive third-party slots that have been launched via the exciting SwinttStudios programme.
Of that powerful trio of line-ups, it’s arguably games in the SwinttPremium range that will be the most eagerly anticipated by customers at Circus.nl. As player trends in the Dutch market have previously demonstrated a certain affinity for “classic” slots, these titles look set to be the perfect fit for the platform, given they combine the playability of land-based slot machines with modern bonus features.
The SwinttPremium games collection is perhaps most widely recognised for its “Book” series of games, which all feature Free Spins bonus rounds that boast innovative modifiers such as expanding mystery symbols. One such title that will now debut at Circus.nl is Master of Books Unlimited, which not only provides this powerful mechanic, but also gives players the chance to re-trigger Free Spins indefinitely.
Other Premium titles that are set to feature on the Dutch platform include Extra Win X, which gives players the chance to massively multiply their base game winnings in a wheel of fortune-style bonus round, and the recently-released Cleopatras Pearls with everyone’s favourite Pearl feature and seven different scatters with special features.
Circus.nl players with an appetite for more modern slot content, meanwhile, will also have plenty to enjoy courtesy of the SwinttGames catalogue. With these games all boasting immersive themes and ground-breaking bonuses, notable additions to the site will include The Crown starring Vinnie Jones, the mobile-game inspired, Candy Gold and Swintt’s most successful title to date, Aloha Spirit XtraLockTM.
On top of these two staple collections, Circus.nl players will also be able to get their first look at boutique third-party software provider, Fine Edge Gaming, whose explosive Stacking Bison slot has been distributed via the SwinttStudios program. Featuring 720 ways to win, a maximum jackpot of 5,044x the selected bet and a Stacking Bison Respin feature that only uses high value symbols, the game has all the makings of an instant classic and should prove a huge hit among players at Circus.nl.
David Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Swintt, said: “With the Dutch market being a key focus area for Swintt, we’re delighted to be teaming up with a quality brand like Circus.nl to ensure our state-of-the-art slot selection can be enjoyed by even more Netherlands-based players.
“With Premium releases, SwinttGames and SwinttStudios exclusive all launched recently, we’re sure Circus.nl customers will have no trouble finding a new favourite slot and we’re confident the partnership will prove a highly successful venture for everyone involved.”
Denis Wittebrood, Casino Operations Manager at Circus.nl, said: “We believe Circus.nl to be the top online casino and sports betting website available to Dutch players – and the most reliable way for us to cement our status as #1 is to carry on teaming up with the best and brightest game providers around.
“Over the past couple of years, Swintt have certainly proved that they’re one of the most sought-after developers in the online casino industry, so we’re very excited to now be able to share a wide selection of their releases with our casino customers and hope they enjoy taking these great games for a spin.”

We will continue to listen, monitor, and adapt schedules where and when needed as we move forward to deliver the best service possible for betting operators as well as punters.”
Paul Witten, Managing Director at SIS, added: “We are passionate about delivering a greyhound racing service that benefits all of the sport’s stakeholders. Together with Premier Greyhound Raxing, we have introduced a revised racing schedule that benefits operators and their customers.
“Our approach to greyhound racing is grounded in sustainability and flexibility. This collaboration with fellow service providers allows everyone to enjoy all the high-quality action produced on a daily basis from tracks across the UK and Ireland.”

PRAGMATIC PLAY HITS THE SWEET SPOT WITH FRUITY TREATS
Pragmatic Play, a leading content supplier to the iGaming industry, has added Fruity Treats to its collection of clusters pays Slots.
Five or more fruit symbols must connect horizontally or vertically to award a win in this vibrant 7×7 title, which features a variation of the popular multiplier spots mechanic.
At the start of each spin, four marked spots of different colours take up random positions on the grid. If a win forms over a marked spot, a starting multiplier of 5x, 10x, 15x or 20x (depending on the spot colour) will be activated. Each time a winning combination lands on a marked spot after a tumble, the multiplier is applied to the win and then increases by its starting value.
Hitting at least three candy scatters on a spin awards entry to the bonus game with 10 free spins. During the feature, which can be retriggered with five additional free spins, activated multipliers from marked spots do not reset between free spins, potentially leading to massive wins.
Fruity Treats is the latest cluster pays Slot in Pragmatic Play’s multi-award-winning range, joining recent hit Sugar Rush 1000.
Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “The roaming multiplier spots feature in Fruity Treats sets it apart from other successful cluster pays Slots in the Pragmatic Play portfolio, with marked spots staying sticky in the bonus game for even greater win potential.”
Pragmatic Play currently produces up to eight new Slot titles a month, while also delivering Live Casino and Bingo games as part of its multi-product portfolio, available through a single API.
