Wazdan, the innovative games provider, has established a foothold in the Italian market by signing a partnership with Betsson Group’s StarCasino brand.

The agreement sees the initial launch of 12 top-performing Wazdan titles, granting StarCasino customers exclusive access to innovative Hold the Jackpot slots like Sun of Fortune, Fortune Reels, and Power of Gods™: Egypt.

An additional collection of products will be launched after the first batch of games, all of which utilise Wazdan’s Freedom of Choice™ suite, which features engagement-boosting tools like Volatility Levels™.
