Metal Casino Ready to Rock Online Gaming Sector

Metal Casino Grand Opening

New online casino bets on millions of “loyal” Metalheads worldwide

 

Fans of Metal music and casino gaming now have the perfect platform for their interests. Metal Casino is launching the world’s first gaming site for hard rock enthusiasts.

Targeting hundreds of millions of Metal fans worldwide, and having already partnered with some of the genre’s major stars, Malta based Metal Casino has been created by a tight team of gaming, music and marketing experts, including former executives at Apple, Microsoft, Universal Music, Spotify and Mr Green, who are also heavy guitar music lovers.

As a pioneer among a new generation of online casino 3.0 operators powered by GIG’s holistic platform service provider iGaming Cloud, Metal Casino will rock the sector with its great portfolio of games and appeal to a niche community – including 400 million Metal fans on Facebook – via a vertical marketing strategy.

The platform will offer games from leading providers such as NetEnt and Microgaming and will launch through front-end partner FAST TRACK Solutions.

Metal Casino has already contracted some major artists from the Metal scene as affiliate partners. Only a small selection of traditional casino affiliates will be partnered, as Metal Casino avoids the revenue share squeeze most major operators suffers from.

Clas DahlenChief Marketing Officer Clas Dahlén, formerly Mr Green’s Country Manager, Sweden says: “Creating a vertical marketing strategy, based on social media, collaborating with Metal artists as influencers and vertical Metal media is a game changing way to penetrate the marketing landscape out there.

“With a loyal fan base, Metal Casino therefore becomes highly marketing efficient. Being relevant creates loyalty and maximizes the retention and ROI,” Dahlén continues.

Dahlén says the teams’ experience as well as statistics from the music industry proves that the Metal community is the most active on streaming services, and they are the most dependable and loyal people in the world.

Metal Casino is set for an international launch in the UK, Germany, Sweden, Norway and Finland. Communication will be only in the “universal language of Metal”, English.

Members can join the Metal Casino’s World Tour, which is one of the site’s games and loyalty programmes. Its own soft currency, MetCoins, will enable members to acquire exclusive tickets and customised merchandise in the Merch Room and get a chance to meet the world’s biggest Metal bands and artists backstage.

We have decided to take our joint head-banging sessions to a new level and create some real magic. Collaborating with FAST TRACK Solutions as Front End developers and casino room management we have a strong partner for years to come,“ Dahlén continues

Clas Dahlén describes their different approach: “Metal Casino speaks out loud, we are the underdogs and we don’t give a sh*t about our competitors’ conventional marketing or offers. Keeping it real and staying true to our beliefs is something most people strive for. Few live up to it. Our members can count on us. As our brand platform describes, we are true, relevant and dedicated to our members and our beliefs.

“We are Metal Casino, we go all in for the fans!

Level Up in Barcelona: N1 Partners Puzzle Promo Grand Final Recap

Published

on

The N1 Puzzle Promo journey reached its culmination in Barcelona, where N1 Partners hosted a grand final event that became one of the standout events of the iGB Affiliate week. Taking place after the first day of iGB Affiliate in Barcelona, the evening marked the official conclusion of a year-long campaign that ran throughout 2025 and consistently engaged partners across the industry.

Designed as a large-scale finale, the event brought together a carefully selected audience of industry leaders, top-performing affiliates and long-term partners. Interest in the final exceeded expectations well in advance, with more than 2,000 registrations submitted and over 600 guests attending the closed-format celebration. Limited access and a curated guest list helped shape an atmosphere of anticipation and made the night one of the most discussed gatherings of the conference week.

Where the Final Began: First Moments of the Night

From the moment guests arrived, the tone of the evening was clear. Paparazzi-style photographers welcomed attendees at the entrance, capturing arrival moments and setting a cinematic pace for what followed. Inside, flight-attendant-inspired stewards guided guests through the venue.

Multiple zones were designed to balance entertainment and conversation. A signature cocktail bar served drinks created specifically for the night, while a dedicated VIP area offered a comfortable setting for private discussions, networking and informal meetings that continued throughout the evening.

When the Stage Took Over the Night

The stage program played a central role in shaping the atmosphere of the night. Rather than relying on a single format, the evening unfolded through a sequence of performances that kept guests engaged from start to finish. Energetic dance acts set the pace early on, followed by moments of contrast, including classical compositions reimagined in a rock-driven style.

DJ sets carried the momentum between performances, while the appearance of the event’s headline guest became a natural high point of the program. Combined with lighting design and stage production, the performances created an experience that stayed with guests long after the evening came to a close.

As a final personal touch, guests were invited to visit the custom patch bar, where they could take home a souvenir marking their participation in the N1 Puzzle Promo grand final.

Celebrating the Leaders of N1 Puzzle Promo

At the core of the evening stood the award ceremony, recognising the partners who defined N1 Puzzle Promo throughout the year. N1 Partners highlighted those who consistently maintained a strong pace across the campaign and secured top positions on the leaderboard through long-term performance rather than short-term spikes.

As the final results were announced on stage, the emotions in the room spoke for themselves. The winners of N1 Puzzle Promo shared their reactions moments after the ceremony, reflecting on the journey, the competition and what the victory meant for their teams.

1st place – Cash Splash, winner of the main prize: a Robinson R22 Beta II helicopter

The winning team, Cash Splash, shared their impressions after the announcement of the results:

“The emotions are overwhelming, honestly at the highest level. The event itself was impressive, and winning the main prize among such strong peers feels truly incredible. For a long time, we were simply doing our job, and only closer to the end did we realise we could compete for first place and win the helicopter.

What mattered most for us was that this was not just a promo or a prize. Throughout the campaign, it was clear that N1 Partners focus on long-term relationships and transparent partnership. We understood what we were competing for, and that level of clarity was a strong motivation.”

2nd place – Advertise.net, awarded an Aston Martin Aramco AMR24 F1 Simulator

The second-place team, Advertise.net, shared their perspective on the promo and the competition:

“The first emotion was pure excitement. For us, even making it into the top three already felt like a win. We worked on this for a long time, and seeing our company’s name on stage was an incredibly emotional moment.

What mattered most in this promo was transparency and fairness. We could track our results almost in real time and clearly understand how we could influence the outcome. This was not a vote or a matter of luck, it was the result of real work.”

3rd place – Traffic Squad, winner of a Rolex Sky-Dweller watch

4th place – Seven Group
5th place – Alfaleads Network

Each announcement was met with strong engagement from the audience, reinforcing the competitive nature of the promo and the scale of its rewards. The ceremony underscored a key message of the campaign: consistency, strategy and commitment over time were central to success.

The Final Piece of a Year-Long Story

The N1 Puzzle Promo Grand Final was not positioned as a standalone celebration, but as the natural conclusion of a campaign that unfolded throughout the year. By combining immersive production, a strong narrative arc and tangible recognition of partner achievements, N1 Partners delivered a final that felt both earned and relevant to the industry.

Alexa Bond, Head of Affiliates at N1 Partners, shared her thoughts on the campaign finale:

“The N1 Puzzle Promo Grand Final in Barcelona became the culmination of the entire campaign and a reflection of what was achieved over the year. Bringing our partners together to celebrate their results highlighted the commitment, consistency and long-term effort behind this journey.

This finale was our way of showing that we are not just working side by side, but building long-term partnerships based on trust and shared goals. Seeing our partners celebrate their achievements, share emotions and connect with each other confirmed that we created something truly meaningful for the affiliate community.”

The grand final also attracted strong interest from industry media. Representatives of leading iGaming and affiliate outlets attended the event, capturing its atmosphere and engaging with partners throughout the evening. Their presence reinforced the broader industry relevance of the N1 Puzzle Promo finale and extended its visibility beyond the conference floor.

As the evening came to a close, the grand finale reflected what the promo was ultimately about: long-term collaboration and a shared moment of celebration with the iGaming community.

N1 Partners expressed appreciation to all guests who joined the N1 Puzzle Promo grand final party and helped turn the evening into one of the most memorable moments of the conference week.

Be number one with N1 Partners.
