On 7 March 2024, GameArt announced that more than 150 of its slots were being integrated into the online casino projects of Esofthall, presented as a B2B software company for betting and iGaming.
That total matches the figure the Valletta-based studio gave in late January 2024 for its entire portfolio, table games and the Fury Penguins crash game included.
The Esofthall deal came three days after the one with the Nordic operator Paf, in a run of nine distribution agreements GameArt made public in less than three months.
GameArt's press release names no market, no casino, no title and no go-live date.
Esofthall's website offers turnkey and white-label casinos and claims, depending on the page, more than 40 or more than 80 game providers.
Going through a platform supplier to reach casinos was nothing new for GameArt: in 2022, Quantum Gaming technology was already meant to carry its games to Wikibet.
Between February and August 2024, five studios announced their arrival at Esofthall. GameArt, Amigo Gaming and Belatra Games all received the same compliment from its account manager.
ESOFTHALL LIMITED (no. 12976761), whose registered office was at 100 Bishopsgate in London, was dissolved on 30 December 2025 at its own request. The brand's website is still online, but its privacy policy is copied from the one written by its WordPress theme developer.
Online casino licences are national, and Kynox Casino's filters only show operators that are legal at the visitor's IP location.
A few lines and two quotes: that is all GameArt devoted on 7 March 2024 to the arrival of more than 150 slots at Esofthall, which presented itself as a London-based supplier of turnkey online casinos. The Esofthall GameArt deal came down to a number, with no destination attached. On 30 December 2025, ESOFTHALL LIMITED was struck off the UK companies register, at the end of a procedure it had started itself. Its website, though, is still up. I am reopening the file for Kynox Casino with the documents still available in November 2026, to measure what that signature was worth and what it says about B2B press releases in online gaming.
Esofthall GameArt: the 7 March 2024 deal with no market and no casino
GameArt made its partnership with Esofthall official on 7 March 2024 in the news section of its website. The announcement describes the company as a software developer serving the betting and iGaming sectors. According to GameArt, Esofthall was adding more than 150 slots to its collection and would integrate them into its online casino projects. That is the whole scope.
Two voices accompany the news. Konstantinos Zervos, Esofthall's Account Manager, hails “a distinguished company known for its outstanding slot games” and says the deal will help Esofthall offer its partners a wider range of games. His counterpart at GameArt, Dea Kravos, sees Esofthall as a significant supplier in the sector. She praises an offering designed for providers, operators and players alike.
Trade shows had already put them under the same roof. GameArt and Esofthall both attended SBC Summit Barcelona in September 2023, then ICE London in February 2024, a month before their deal.
The rest reads between the lines. Where, when, on which casinos and with which titles? The text answers none of these questions, and Esofthall shows no licence in it either. It is a chip placed on the felt with no way of knowing which table it sits on.
Between 28 February and 21 May 2024, GameArt published nine distribution announcements, six of them with B2B platforms. Esofthall came second among those platforms, eight days after Torrero; the mid-April Bulgarian integrator Anakatech would follow five weeks later.
More than 150 games: the whole portfolio rather than a selection
On 29 January 2024, ahead of ICE London, GameArt put its portfolio at more than 150 games. Its stand preview put slots, table games and the brand-new crash game Fury Penguins in that count. The 7 March page takes up the same total under the slots label alone. In terms of numbers, Esofthall was getting the whole portfolio, not a selection tailored to its casinos. For an intermediary, that total stays theoretical as long as the target markets remain unknown.
In a regulated market, each title usually has to be certified before it goes live in a casino's game library. GameArt knows the rule: its entry into the Lithuanian market in June 2021 rested on fifteen certified slots.
Two weeks after Esofthall, the Dutch deal with JACKS.NL made the same point: GameArt announced only 17 titles certified in the Netherlands against the 150 in its portfolio. At Esofthall, with no country named, nothing tells us how much of the catalogue actually found a place.
Ready-to-launch casinos: what Esofthall's website offers
On 8 November 2026, Esofthall's homepage still lists five solutions for anyone who wants to open a casino or a betting site. On this official website, where the brand is spelled eSoftHall, the company presents itself as a software developer for sports betting and online casinos.
Turnkey: described as a self-owned operation, backed by the company's long experience.
White Label: presented as the most complete solution for launching a casino from scratch.
Brands: a third option, described with the same sentence as Turnkey.
Casino Providers: third-party games to integrate, more than 40 providers according to the homepage and more than 80 according to the products page.
Odds Feed Generator: an odds feed for sports betting, customisable by sport and by country.
On top of that come risk management handled by in-house bookmakers, round-the-clock multilingual customer support, a CRM built on Optimove and payment processing. The contact page gives a London address on the 18th and 19th floors of 100 Bishopsgate. Finally, the company's About page praises a betting and casino platform “combined with our license”, ideal for a white label. It never says which licence that is or who issues it.
Turnkey or white label: two ways to rent a casino
A turnkey casino and a white-label casino, the first two options on Esofthall's website, both run on a B2B supplier's platform. What separates them is mostly the licence. With a turnkey setup, the operator receives the complete platform and runs it under its own licence. A white label usually leaves the brand and the marketing to the operator, while the supplier keeps the platform, the payments and the licence.
To stretch the metaphor, turnkey means buying a fully equipped gaming hall and applying for the opening permit yourself. A white label is more like renting the hall, the machines and the owner's permit, then changing only the sign above the door.
For players, the difference matters: on a white-label site, the licence shown in the footer usually belongs to the supplier. GameArt also signed in spring 2024 with another aggregator that doubles as a white-label provider, United Remote, whose 21 May deal closed the series.
So where do GameArt's slots end up?
The 7 March 2024 announcement mentions Esofthall's online casino projects without naming a single one. A name does appear a week earlier, in another release. According to the 1spin4win announcement carried by European Gaming on 29 February 2024, that studio's games were then live on Destinobet, presented as Esofthall's online casino. I can find no public trace of that brand in November 2026.
The pattern was nothing new for GameArt, which announced its slots at Wikibet (the first casino run on Quantum Gaming) as early as August 2022 before signing with that technology supplier in September. In this model, the content provider leaves it to its partner to place its games, one casino at a time. That is the whole appeal of these deals for a game maker, and their whole opacity for the person placing the bet.
That opacity is not inevitable, and GameArt proved it on 12 August 2026: to announce its expanded distribution network through EGT Digital, the studio named five titles and seven markets where its content is certified. The contrast says a lot about what was missing in spring 2024.
Five studios in six months and a line that keeps coming back
Between 29 February and 7 August 2024, five studios announced their arrival on Esofthall's platform: 1spin4win, GameArt, Amigo Gaming, Belatra Games and Blaze Gaming. Side by side, these releases follow a common template.

Blaze Gaming

Him, with no job title given
The compliment paid to GameArt was not made to measure. Apart from the studio's name, its opening line reappears in two other releases. You can read it six days later in the Amigo Gaming announcement, then again in May for Belatra Games. The cards are the same, just reshuffled for each table. I have a soft spot for these visible seams: they say more about a deal than all of its adjectives.
They do not prove the deal was hollow. They simply show that a release of this kind is often written from a template, at the integrator as much as at the studio. The Blaze Gaming release in August even changes formula and lists the integrated games.
Reading a B2B announcement beyond the pleasantries
On 20 March 2024, GameArt introduced Vibra Solutions with the very sentence it had used thirteen days earlier for Esofthall. In the Vibra Solutions release, the new partner “further enhances its gaming collection with over 150 top-quality online slots”. The wording came from further back: on 29 February, the 1spin4win release already had Esofthall gaining more than 100 extra slots in an almost identical sentence.
Headlines are not spared either: the title of the April 2024 Anakatech announcement reuses the “Cutting-Edge Platform” that topped the REEVO press release of November 2023 four and a half months earlier. It is not a fault, more of a clue: whatever gets copied from one deal to the next tells you nothing about the deal itself.
To weigh a deal like this, I stick to four checks. The 7 March text passes them very unevenly.
What you need to know
What the 7 March release says
Target markets and the licences covering them
No country, no licence
Titles involved and their go-live date
A total, with no list and no schedule
Casinos hosting the games and their operator
Casino projects, never named
The signatories' roles and how original their words are
Two account managers, one of whom would recycle his compliment
The verdict: one box half-ticked out of four. The signatories do have job titles, but Esofthall's sentence is not specific to the deal. Readers close the page with a platform name and an order of magnitude, nothing else. The quality of GameArt's games is not in question.
ESOFTHALL LIMITED struck off on 30 December 2025: what the register shows
ESOFTHALL LIMITED (no. 12976761) was dissolved on 30 December 2025 through a voluntary strike-off, five years after it was incorporated in London. Its three activity codes cover software and IT services, which fits a B2B supplier, but none of them refers to running gambling. Its Companies House record, kept by the UK companies registrar, carries the name and the London address still shown on Esofthall's website.
A voluntary strike-off is not a bankruptcy. It assumes the company has stopped trading and chooses to leave the register. For the 2024 deal, the conclusion is clear: the company a G-MNews article called Esofthall Ltd in March 2024 no longer exists. GameArt never came back to the subject. Its news section mentions Esofthall only once, on 7 March 2024. Nothing proves that the studio signed with that exact entity either, since its announcement only names the brand. If the deal is still alive, neither GameArt nor the website says which company carries it.
Six dates on the UK register
ESOFTHALL LIMITED's filing history fits into six dates, from its incorporation in October 2020 to its strike-off in December 2025. A public register leaves no room for bluffing: every step leaves a dated trace.
27 October 2020: incorporation, with a first registered office on Seven Sisters Road.
15 December 2022: registered office moved to 100 Bishopsgate.
8 August 2025: accounting period shortened, ending on 31 July 2025 instead of 31 October.
1 October 2025: final accounts and strike-off application filed together.
14 October 2025: first notice in The Gazette announcing the strike-off.
30 December 2025: second notice, confirming it.
Between those dates, each financial year produced micro-entity accounts, the simplified regime for the smallest UK companies.
A website still online in November 2026
The esofthall.com website is still accessible on 8 November 2026, complete with its solutions menu and provider logos. On the homepage, the news block stops on 8 February 2024 with ICE London 2024. A February 2023 post there claims more than 25 years of experience, whereas the London company was only incorporated in October 2020: that track record cannot be its own.
The most telling detail sits in the footer. The site's privacy policy is a word-for-word copy of the template written by AncoraThemes, the developer of the WordPress theme the brand uses. The text presents itself as that of a company based in Cyprus and refers to purchase codes from the Envato marketplace, without ever naming Esofthall.
No company name, no registration number, no named licence: the homepage, About page and contact page say nothing about who runs the site. It looks like a shop window still lit up, with nobody saying who pays the electricity bill. Whether you are a player or an operator looking for a white label, a licence you cannot verify is worth no more than no licence at all.
Can you play at a casino built on Esofthall's platform?
It depends on where you live, and on a licence Esofthall never names. Online casino gaming is licensed country by country: a white-label site is only legal where its operator holds a licence that the local market recognises. GameArt's Maltese B2B licence covers its role as a game supplier, not the casinos that run its slots.
Some markets go further and keep online casino games for local players. In Belgium, only gaming establishments already licensed in the real world can apply for a supplementary internet licence. In Switzerland, only Swiss casinos whose licence the Federal Council has extended may offer them. Québec is a moving case. Loto-Québec still holds the online monopoly there, but the Parti Québécois won the provincial election on 5 October 2026 after backing the liberalisation of iGaming.
Kynox Casino's filters follow the same logic: they read the visitor's IP address and only list online casinos that are legal there. The GameArt deals I follow in the provider's partnerships section each describe specific markets, and none of them guarantees access from yours. Reading these announcements still pays off: knowing who makes a game, who distributes it and under which licence it runs is the first step to spotting an unlicensed offer.
How do you check a white-label casino's licence?
The rule is the same everywhere: before you sign up, check that the site holds a licence valid where you live. Regulators publish registers for exactly that purpose, such as the MGA licensee register. On a white-label site, the check takes three steps.
The footer: it should name the licence holder, the regulator and a licence number.
The regulator's register: that number must lead to the company named in the footer, on the public register of the authority cited (the UK Gambling Commission public register, for instance).
Your own market: the licence must be valid where you play, because a licence issued elsewhere does not cover a country that requires its own. When in doubt, your country's regulator is the authority to ask.
For Esofthall, the method stops at step one: with no licence holder and no number, there is nothing to check against any register.
FAQs:
What is Esofthall?
Esofthall presents itself as a B2B provider of sports betting and online casino platforms. Its website offers turnkey casinos, white labels, an odds generator and CRM or payment services, with an address in London.
Does the Esofthall company still exist?
ESOFTHALL LIMITED was struck off the UK register on 30 December 2025, after a strike-off application filed on 1 October. The brand's website still works in November 2026, without naming the company that runs it.
How many GameArt slots went to Esofthall?
The release mentions more than 150, with no list of titles. That was the size of the studio's whole game library at the time, not just its slots.
What licence does Esofthall hold?
Its website mentions a licence attached to its platform without giving its name, its number or the regulator. GameArt itself operates under the Maltese B2B licence MGA/B2B/966/2022, issued on 6 February 2023.
Are GameArt games still available through Esofthall?
There is no way to confirm it. GameArt has published neither a follow-up nor an end to the deal, and the eleven provider logos shown on Esofthall's homepage in November 2026 do not include GameArt.
Which casinos did Esofthall put GameArt games on?
Nobody has said so publicly. GameArt named no casino, and Esofthall's website does not publish its client list.
Is Esofthall trustworthy?
Nothing verifiable supports that claim. The website names neither its licence nor the company behind it, its privacy policy actually belongs to a theme developer and the London company that bore the name was dissolved in late 2025.
What is the difference between a turnkey casino and a white label?
It all comes down to the licence. The operator of a turnkey casino holds its own, while a white-label operator works under the supplier's.
Why would a studio go through a platform like Esofthall?
A single integration opens every casino the platform equips. The studio avoids negotiating operator by operator, at the cost of less visibility over where its games end up.
Where can I play GameArt slots legally?
Only at online casinos licensed for your country that carry GameArt's games. On Kynox Casino, the casino filters only show sites that are legal at your IP location.
