Finixio hires first head of gambling content and boosts editorial team by 25
Affiliate firm Finixio has appointed Sacha Kinser its head of gambling content as part of the company’s expansion drive in the igaming market.
Kinser joins from affiliate Game Lounge, where she was most recently head of content, having worked her way up the ranks after joining the Malta-based firm in 2018 as a content manager.
Prior to that, she also worked for SiGMA. Her standing in the igaming community saw her recently shortlisted in the Top 3 for iGaming NEXT’s iGaming Manager IDOL of the year.
“I am thrilled to join Finixio, a company that stands out as being at the forefront of innovation and excellence. My role here extends beyond a job title, it’s an opportunity for me to leverage my leadership skills to actively nurture and develop a strong, cohesive team. I am committed to fostering talent and potential, driving us to not only meet our goals but also to set new industry standards through our unified vision and collaborative effort,” said Kinser.
Finixio entered the international gambling market back in 2021, when it hired Neil Roarty as its head of North America to expand beyond its UK operation. Roarty is an industry veteran, having spent 15 years in the igaming space, with his background including stints at Catena Media and Bettingpro.com. Prior to joining Finixio, he was at affiliate network Wedge Traffic, which he set up in the US in 2019.
Since 2021 Finixio has been on an acquisition drive and has grown from a single gambling site (www.safebettingsites.com) to a network of over 20, with its flagship brands including www.sportslens.com and www.thesportsdaily.com.
Roarty said the appointment of the company’s first head of gambling content, along with the further 24 staff it had hired to work under Kinser, demonstrated Finixio’s optimism about the international igaming market.
“Our early experiences in the international gambling markets have led to a strong belief that this is going to be one of the growth engines of the affiliate market in the future. We are investing strongly in our gambling content team now to make sure we are well placed to benefit from the additional opportunities we expect to open up over the coming years,” said Roarty.
“We are delighted to have secured someone as experienced in the igaming market as Sacha and expect her leadership to play a key role in the company’s success in the future.”
Roarty added that the recent hires were part of a wider push on hiring across the firm, which is currently moving away from using contract and freelance staff and instead focusing on taking on more permanent employees in order to provide better services to clients. This move away from freelancers is what Finixio hopes will help it cement a position as a leading brand into 2024 and beyond.
“We want to set our business up for stable future growth and we believe providing good jobs and clear career progression is a key part of this,” he said.
He said the recent hiring process had focused on experience and authority as Finixio looked to build a team of experienced journalists, with new hires coming from The Daily Mail, The Daily Express and The Telegraph. They will work alongside industry experts with previous experience at both operator and affiliate level.
Finixio has also recently started working with Manchester-based The Juice Academy to provide apprenticeships, which mix on-the-job learning with a digital marketing qualification. Its first graduate from the scheme, Max Barlow, is now a permanent employee in the company’s PR team.

Power affiliate QiH Group rebrands to Quantum to reflect ambitious diversification strategy
The tech powerhouse has a new website, name and branding that are set to take the affiliate marketing company into the next 10 years.
Quantum International Holdings, the affiliate formerly known across the tech, sports, iGaming betting industries as QiH Group has launched its official rebrand to Quantum. With a new-look website, logo and assets, the company has chosen the pared down name to reflect the strategic direction it will be taking, starting in 2026.
Speaking about the change, Quantum CEO Jamie Walters said: “I’m incredibly proud and excited to share the next chapter in our journey: the evolution of QiH into Quantum. For over a decade, QiH has been our foundation, a story of success, growth and innovation in iGaming. But the world – especially digitally – moves fast, and so do we.
“‘Quantum’ was already in our name, so we’ve simplified and streamlined, and it now represents the next version of who we are and where we’re going. A rebrand is about a lot more than a new logo, colours and identity – we’ve also evolved our mindset, ambition and of course, our strategic direction.
Walters continues: “Over the past few months, the Quantum team has worked tirelessly to get to this exciting new stage for our growth. We’re building on everything that has already made QiH Group so brilliant – our talent, creativity, and data-driven approach – and supercharging it to perform on the biggest global stage.
“Our vision is simple: to expand our affiliate marketing roots to become the world’s most-used digital comparison service, delivering simplicity and value to millions of users around the globe.”
Tom Murch, creative director at Quantum, shared: “The rebrand brief was simple: evolution. This wasn’t just about a new identity, it was about building on a decade of growth and turning momentum into acceleration. Quantum is the brave new chapter in our story, a brand, a strategy, a mindset, and a framework for high performance culture at scale and where elite talent can really thrive.”
The story so far
QiH Group was launched in London in 2014 to address a gap in the iGaming affiliate market for smart, digital-first, data-focused affiliate partnerships for iGaming operators.
The company has seen a host of accolades, such as:
-
Moving from 21st to 15th on EGR Global’s Power Affiliates list in 2025
-
Growing from five initial employees to 60 now
-
Hiring an experienced C-suite of talent, including a CFO, CMO and CTO and promoting internally for their COO
-
Building our entire tech team from outsourced to a fully in-house, tech capability, expanding the team from 0 to 14 employees this year
-
Shortlisted for eight major awards in iGaming, from Employer of the Year to Affiliate of the Year
-
Fostering years-long relationships with Tier 1 operators
“2026 and beyond are going to be incredibly exciting times for Quantum, and we’re so pleased to be bringing a new look, simplified name and a honed strategic direction and operational delivery for our clients – and of course, an environment where our talented and ambitious team can thrive,” says Walters.
