Loterija Slovenije Launches Fennica Gaming eInstants

Fennica Gaming is proud to announce that its widely acclaimed eInstant games are now live and available to players in Slovenia at National Lottery of Slovenia, Loterija Slovenije. This milestone marks another significant achievement in the company’s expansion strategy and showcases the successful cooperation between Fennica Gaming and Loterija Slovenije.

Fennica Gaming’s entry into the Slovenian market is a significant milestone that underscores the company’s dedication to digital transformation and in expanding its global footprint. The successful cooperation with Loterija Slovenije serves as a model for constructive partnerships and highlights the potential of cloud-based gaming solutions.

“We have had fruitful and thorough discussions with the Slovenian National Lottery as they expressed their wish to complement their digital offering with our entertaining eInstants. The challenge was posed only by the Slovenian legislation as they weren’t accepting the Games as a Service (GaaS) model through cloud services outside Slovenia. In order to offer the best GaaS solution for our customers, serve the best games with the latest updates seamlessly, and keep the highest standards in data security and the uptime at its peak, the cloud services is the only cost-effective way to deliver our games. We were very happy working with such visionary and brave colleagues at the Loterija Slovenije, who courageously started the discussions with the regulator to change the Slovenian legislation. Now, we are thrilled to announce that the games are successfully live for the Slovenian players, and we can serve the customer through the most modern technology using cloud-based services”, Joni Hovi, SVP Customers and Marketing from Fennica Gaming explains.

Fennica Gaming with its parent company, the National Lottery of Finland, Veikkaus, has been at the forefront of technological innovation in the gaming industry. Known for its cutting-edge games and commitment to quality, the company was a natural partner for Loterija Slovenije to enter this new era of cloud-based gaming. Fennica Gaming’s portfolio includes a diverse array of games, ranging from classic and express games to casual games like entertaining eInstants. Loterija Slovenije saw these games as a possibility to attract wider audiences and acquire new customers.

“We are delighted that, through our discussions with the regulator, we successfully achieved a legislative change that enabled the implementation of Fennica Gaming’s solution. We were able to use the expertise from Fennica Gaming to explain the technical implementation and infrastructure and especially the data security aspects during the process. Now, the regulatory transformation opened the doors for innovative and safe gaming experiences, enabling Slovenian players to enjoy a variety of thrilling and immersive games. It has been a pleasure to collaborate with such an experienced and professional team, and we look forward to introducing new games”, explains Aneta Bec, Development and Marketing Director of the Loterija Slovenija

“At Loterija Slovenije, innovation and excellence are at the heart of everything we do. eInstants represent an important segment of our online portfolio, and diversifying our game selection is crucial for growth and attracting new players. That’s why we’ve partnered with one of the industry’s best—Fennica Gaming. This collaboration has not only brought an exciting lineup of engaging new eInstant games but has also presented the perfect opportunity to refresh our website for this category. By incorporating industry best practices, we’ve crafted an optimized platform that enhances the way we present our eInstant portfolio to players. We’re introducing new games gradually, allowing players to explore and embrace new game mechanics at their own pace. This phased approach ensures a smooth learning curve, fostering greater engagement and excitement. We’ll continue to expand our offering throughout this year and beyond”, says Tina Peterka, Product Manager of Game Development and Innovation at Loterija Slovenija.

The partnership with Loterija Slovenije has been a testament to Fennica Gaming’s expertise and adaptability. From the initial stages of regulatory adjustments to the final deployment of the games, the collaboration has been smooth and efficient. Both parties have worked tirelessly to ensure that the games meet the highest standards of performance, security, and entertainment.

The Entertaining Mechanics™ of the Fennican eInstants are special and new at the Slovenian markets, but the collaboration between Loterija Slovenije and Fennica Gaming doesn't stop at eInstants. The latest expansion is, perhaps surprisingly, a culinary exchange as Veikkaus Group’s own kitchen offers Slovenian delicacies at lunch for its employees. Also, Loterija Slovenije’s lunch menu will one day introduce the Finnish Salmon Soup. This can be called a real cultural exchange for all senses.
