Popiplay Review

B2B online slots studio founded in 2022 with a Scandinavian identity, Curacao licensed and tested by eCOGRA, iTech and GLI.

Meet PopiPlay

PopiPlay is a video slots developer that builds B2B casino content with a distinctive cartoon style. It was founded in 2022 and has a Scandinavian identity, with a base linked to Sweden and a branch in Belgrade, Serbia, while it is registered in Willemstad, Curacao. Led by industry figure Nikola Teofilovic, the studio set out to stand apart on visual design, and it supplies its content to licensed operators and does not run any games for players itself. Despite its short history it has spread its content widely through aggregation partners, building a footprint that belies its size and age.

A 2022 Scandinavian Studio

For a studio founded in 2022, PopiPlay has built recognition quickly, distinguishing itself with a characteristic cartoon art style across its video slots. It pairs a Scandinavian identity with development in the Balkans and a Curacao registration, a structure that keeps its content production and its licensing in different places. By the middle of 2024 the company reported its content live in more than 200 online casinos, a reach assembled in roughly two years and built almost entirely through partnerships with game aggregators rather than direct operator deals. That aggregator first route is the usual way new studios scale, and PopiPlay has used it to get in front of operators across many markets quickly.

Curacao Licence, Lab Tested

PopiPlay holds a B2B Curacao licence, which lets its content be offered across many gambling markets, and it backs that licence with independent testing. Its slots are tested by recognised laboratories including eCOGRA, iTech Labs and Gaming Laboratories International (GLI), three of the better known test houses. That combination of a Curacao licence and certification from multiple labs is what lets operators in a range of markets add its content with the fairness checks in place, a stronger certification position than many studios of its age. For a 2022 studio to carry certification from three separate labs is itself a signal that it aimed at regulated distribution from early on.

Aggregators and Reach

PopiPlay has reached its 200 plus casino footprint mainly by working through game aggregators that resell studio content to operators, rather than negotiating each integration itself. That route is how a young studio places its content with many casinos quickly, and PopiPlay has leaned on it heavily since launch. PopiPlay hands its content to operators to run, while the licensed casinos own the player accounts and the local approvals, and the studio concentrates on producing its distinctive slot content.
