On 11 September 2024, GameArt announced that its portfolio of HTML5 slots was available on GR8 Casino, the online casino platform built by GR8 Tech.
GR8 Tech is a B2B supplier of sports betting and casino technology, set up in 2021 as Parimatch Tech, renamed in January 2023 and based in Limassol, Cyprus.
The press release names no titles, no markets, no figures and no go-live date; it boils down to two quotes and a product list.
In GameArt's news feed, the deal is the eleventh distribution announcement of 2024. It came after a first platform integration with Torrero in late February, and twelve days before the studio's arrival at Madison Casino in Belgium.
GameArt, an independent B2B studio founded in 2013, holds licence MGA/B2B/966/2022 from the Malta Gaming Authority. GR8 Tech obtained a supplier licence in Peru in August 2024, then a Recognition Notice from the same Maltese regulator in January 2025.
In 2026, GR8 Tech claims more than 100 brands launched and more than 250 aggregated providers, against nearly 50 live operator brands at the end of 2024.
GR8 Tech's page on GameArt highlights five titles and four national certifications, but still presents Yeet&Sweet and its million euros as a live offer, although no season has been announced since 2024.
Access depends on your country. Only an operator licensed in your jurisdiction may offer these slots, whatever platform it runs on.
A slot never travels alone. Between the workshop that draws its reels and the player's screen, it needs a licensed operator and some technical plumbing. More and more often, it also needs a platform that routes the traffic. On 11 September 2024, GameArt added one more route to its network by announcing that its games were coming to GR8 Casino, the platform run by GR8 Tech. The Maltese studio kept dealing with operators too, and a Neapolitan operator joined its partner list as late as September 2026. The channels add up, and that is what makes the 2024 announcement worth a second read.
The press release itself runs to a few lines. I reread it in October 2026 with GR8 Tech's current page on GameArt open beside it, and the gap between the two texts says more than the announcement ever did.
What did the GR8 Tech GameArt deal of 11 September 2024 include?
Published on 11 September 2024 under the title “GameArt Collaborates with GR8 Tech”, GameArt's press release carries one useful piece of information. The developer's online slot portfolio was now available on GR8 Tech's casino platform. The partner is introduced as an international, award-winning provider of sports betting and casino platforms.
The rest reads like a sales brochure. The flagship product, GR8 Sportsbook, is praised for its event coverage and its data feed. It is also said to handle heavy traffic and to run fraud checks in real time. Then come GR8 Casino and a set of modules sold separately: CRM, payment gateway, sportsbook iFrame and sports data feed.
Two voices sign the announcement. Sergey Ghazaryan, then Head of the Casino Business Unit at GR8 Tech, says the partnership “enriches the GR8 Casino offering, fully aligning with our commitment to quality”. On the studio side, Account Manager Yauheni Charniuk calls GR8 Tech “a leader in the iGaming industry” and talks about bringing GameArt's “premium slot games to a wider audience”.
I have been reading this kind of release since 2011, long enough to file them with wedding announcements: they report the union, rarely the married life. GameArt's own calendar proves the point. Twelve days later, on 23 September 2024, Madison Casino took its turn in GameArt's news feed. This Belgian operator known for dice slots got its own announcement, and readers never learned what the September union had produced.
What the press release leaves out
The 11 September 2024 release skips the four markers you would expect from a distribution deal:
titles: no slot is named, even though GameArt's catalogue exceeds 150 games;
markets: no country is mentioned, only players “around the world”;
volumes: nothing on the number of operators connected to GR8 Casino, on players or on bets;
timing: no actual go-live date for the games.
That silence comes from the nature of the contract rather than from any wish to hide something. A studio that joins a platform sells nothing to players. It opens a door to the platform's operator clients, who then decide, market by market, whether to switch its machines on. The release cannot say where the games will run, because that choice belongs to others.
An eleventh distribution announcement in 2024
By my count of GameArt's news feed, checked on 27 October 2026, ten distribution announcements came before GR8 Tech's in 2024, counting operators and B2B intermediaries alike.

The list tells the story of a year spent plugging in. In 2024, GameArt kept adding technical intermediaries, from Torrero to GR8 Tech by way of Anakatech and Uplatform. After GR8 Tech, no new intermediary of that kind appears in the feed until EGT Digital's aggregator on 12 August 2026. The announcements in between mostly concern operators and editorial websites. You can follow these deals signed by the studio one article at a time in the Kynox Casino news section.
Who is GR8 Tech?
Based in Limassol, Cyprus, GR8 Tech builds B2B technology for online gambling operators, from sports betting to casino. The company was born in Ukraine in 2021 as Parimatch Tech. It takes no bets itself. It supplies the backstage instead: turnkey platform, sportsbook, game aggregation, CRM, payment gateway and affiliate tool.
A platform born at Parimatch
Parimatch Tech was set up in 2021, more than a quarter of a century after the Parimatch betting brand was launched, as a B2B provider of technology and marketing solutions. The new name, announced on 25 January 2023, came with Evgen Belousov as CEO and three offers in the shop window: an iGaming platform, a Business-as-a-Service model and a Parimatch franchise. The name reads “great”, as the current product names suggest, such as GREAT_TURNKEY or GREAT_SPORTSBOOK.
The management team has changed since the GameArt deal was signed. Oleksandr Feshchenko, previously deputy CEO and chief revenue officer, has run the company since 1 January 2025. Sergey Ghazaryan, GR8 Tech's voice in the 2024 release, has been chief revenue officer (CRO) since 1 December 2024. And it was Lusine Khudaverdyan, Head of Casino Business, who welcomed ENJOY's content in December 2025.
Most recently, the company unveiled a tighter identity on 18 May 2026 and now signs as GR8_TECH, with an underscore and a visual language borrowed from lines of code. The company describes the exercise as a refinement, not a rebrand.
Two authorisations to serve operators
A B2B platform takes no bets, but it must be authorised in the jurisdictions where its clients run their casinos. Two announcements frame the link-up with GameArt.
Peru: a supplier licence from MINCETUR
On 21 August 2024, three weeks before GameArt's press release, GR8 Tech secured a B2B gaming supplier licence in Peru, issued by the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR). It covers the sports betting and casino platform, the sports data feed, the CRM, the payment gateway and trading services. Peru has regulated this market since 2023. GameArt already had a foothold there. On 4 July 2024, the studio announced a partnership with Universal Soft, a company founded in Peru in 2017 and focused on Latin America.
Malta: a Recognition Notice from the MGA
On 9 January 2025, GR8 Tech announced that the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) had granted it a Recognition Notice. According to the company, it carries the same rights as a standard Maltese B2B licence. It is meant to let GR8 Tech offer its Hyper Turnkey solution, its sportsbook iFrame and its Infinite Casino Aggregation in Malta. GameArt holds its own MGA B2B licence, number MGA/B2B/966/2022, issued on 6 February 2023. Both partners therefore answer to the same regulator.
What does GR8 Tech claim two years after the deal?
GR8 Tech's aggregated catalogue has grown sharply in three years. In September 2023, when GR8 Casino became a standalone product, the company announced more than 175 providers and more than 10,000 slots. Its homepage, checked on 27 October 2026, now shows more than 250 providers and more than 20,000 games.

I read these figures the way I read a weather forecast posted by a tourist office: useful for spotting the trend, never neutral. They all come from the company, sometimes through sponsored content in the trade press. None of them says how many operators have actually switched on GameArt's games. One shift needs no decoding, though. GameArt has become one provider among more than 250, and its place in the shop window has shrunk accordingly.
In February 2026, GR8 Tech was named Best Platform Provider 2026 at the SiGMA Eurasia Awards, for its “Platform for Champions” framework and its new crypto turnkey solution. Crypto is not new ground for this catalogue. Back in August 2022, GameArt announced that its slots were coming to a casino that accepts crypto bets, Wikibet, through Quantum Gaming's technology.
How does a GameArt slot reach GR8 Casino?
On GR8 Casino, a GameArt slot arrives through the integration GR8 Tech built with the studio. Each operator client then picks, in its own lobby, the titles approved for its market. To picture the chain, think of a gaming hall. The studio makes the machines. The platform builds and equips the hall, from customer accounts to the cashier, bonuses and dashboards. The operator gets the licence and opens the doors.
Three ways to plug in a studio
GR8 Tech's pages describe three routes to the catalogue of a studio such as GameArt. They run from direct integration to the turnkey platform detailed on the GR8 Casino page, with the casino game aggregator in between.
Route
What the operator connects
What GR8 Tech says about it
Direct integration
the API of a single studio, here GameArt
the full catalogue and monthly releases, at the cost of heavy in-house development: wallet, authentication, testing, tournament and jackpot widgets
Aggregation
one API for hundreds of studios
integration cut “from months to weeks”, the whole catalogue deployed at once, aggregator fees on top
Turnkey platform
a complete casino: player accounts, cashier, CRM, bonuses, lobby
launch in two to three months if the licence, brand and payment agreements are ready
GameArt uses all three routes, which makes the GR8 Tech deal less unusual than it looks. The provider went through Octavian Lab's Casino Hub to reach Italian operators, a cooperation it said it was strengthening in October 2022. It also joined EGT Digital's aggregator in August 2026. With GR8 Casino, an operator does not just buy access to the reels: it rents the whole hall.
The platform's bonus engine, tournaments and jackpots form a commercial layer around the games. They hand out free spins, leaderboards and prize pots, but each slot's mechanics stay exactly as their designer had them certified.
Certification country by country
According to GR8 Tech's GameArt page, checked on 27 October 2026, every GameArt slot must be approved in the jurisdiction the operator targets. Its maths model and its random number generator also go through a local testing lab.
That is why some distribution deals name their markets. The expanded aggregation deal signed with Bragg Gaming in August 2023 targeted the Netherlands, Spain and Croatia, while the GR8 Tech release names none. For players, the consequence is concrete. The same title can sit in a casino lobby in one country and be missing from a lobby next door, because certification stops at the border.
What does GR8 Tech's GameArt page say in 2026?
Checked on 27 October 2026 and last updated on 26 June 2026, GR8 Tech's GameArt page describes an independent B2B developer founded in 2013 and based in Malta. GameArt claims more than 150 in-house HTML5 games there, plus a Megaways licence obtained from Big Time Gaming. The page highlights five titles (Rosh Immortality Cube Megaways, Nefertiti's Nile, Money Farm 2, Tiger Heart and Battle for Atlantis). It also lists certifications in Italy, Spain, Romania and Lithuania, on top of the MGA B2B licence.
One paragraph has aged badly. The page describes Yeet&Sweet in the present tense, as a network tournament with a €1,000,000 global prize pool. That million actually belongs to the 2023 and 2024 seasons. Since Ultimate 100, the last tournament announced in late November 2024, the studio's own news feed shows no new season. Its only competition in 2025, 10K Double Heat, offered €10,000 and thousands of free spins.
I wouldn't call it deception, more a tournament poster left on the wall after the final. The nuance still matters to an operator comparing providers on paper, because a network tournament funded by the studio remains a sales argument. One update would be enough to take the poster down.
Can you play these slots where you live?
The platform has no say in the answer. On GR8 Casino, the right to offer a GameArt slot belongs to the operator, under the licence it holds in each market, and only for titles certified there. In Malta, anyone can search the regulator's Licensee Register by operator name, URL or gaming service.
A deal between a studio and a platform does not change that. A casino built on GR8 Casino is only legal where its own licence is valid, and a site that offers the games outside that perimeter operates without local approval. I apply the same logic on Kynox Casino, where the casino filters are geolocated and only show operators that are legal in the country you connect from.
If online casinos are regulated where you live, the right reflex stays the same: check the operator's licence in your national regulator's public register, not in the site's footer. A studio's logo or a platform's name is not a licence. And a budget set before the first spin will protect you better than any tournament promise.
