This partnership feels like an organic next step.

Livespins now available through Evolution’s One Stop Shop
Livespins, the live streaming game provider that sits within the casino lobby, is now available to operators via Evolution One Stop Shop platform.
The integration comes after Livespins was acquired by Evolution back in February this year. One Stop Shop allows online casino operators to seamlessly and rapidly incorporate games from its RNG brands, including NetEnt, Red Tiger, Big Time Gaming, and Nolimit City.
The One Stop Shop offering now includes Livespins, which has revolutionised the online casino sector since making its debut in 2021.
Livespins sits within the casino lobby and allows operators to tap into the high demand for slot streaming and social interaction. Players not only get to watch streamers fire up the reels on blockbuster slots from the biggest studios, but they can also bet with the streamers.
This creates a group bet and a shared player experience but with each player able to select their own bet and number of spins. Players can also chat with each other and the streamer throughout, as well as drop reactions, emojis and gifs.
By integrating into Evolution’s One Stop Shop platform, Livespins has significantly increased its reach among top-tier operators in markets across the world.
Michael Pedersen, Chief Commercial Officer at Livespins, said: “This is one of the biggest upsides we have been able to take advantage of following our acquisition by Evolution earlier in the year. One Stop Shop is a cutting-edge solution that allows operators to easily access Evolution’s market-leading content offering, now including Livespins.
“We are thrilled to be lining up alongside the likes of NetEnt, Red Tiger, Big Time Gaming, and Nolimit City with Livespins set to become a household name among players as they become more familiar with the socially charged experiences our product provides.”
Todd Haushalter, Chief Product Officer at Evolution, added: “We are delighted to have added Livespins to our One Stop Shop platform.
“Operators know that players are seeking social experiences, and Livespins offers this in a unique way with players able to get directly involved by betting with the streamer. Those connected to our One Stop Shop platform can now easily integrate Livespins into their offering.”
