Olga Hlukhovskaya, 1spin4win: “We will unveil a brand-new slot, Great Hook Hold and Win, at SBC Summit”
Olga Hlukhovskaya, Business Development Director at 1spin4win, spoke to Focus Gaming News about the company’s upcoming attendance at SBC Summit Lisbon.
Exclusive interview.- Ahead of SBC Summit Lisbon, Focus Gaming News spoke with Olga Hlukhovskaya, business development director at 1spin4win, to discuss the company’s latest milestones, the challenges of standing out at major industry events, and what visitors can expect from its upcoming showcase.
What are 1spin4win’s objectives for SBC Summit Lisbon?
Events like this bring together leading players in the industry, making it an excellent opportunity for us to reconnect with peers, network, and build new contacts. Naturally, we’ll also use this occasion to meet our valued partners face-to-face and strengthen our relationships.
Additionally, we will unveil a brand-new slot, Great Hook Hold and Win, at SBC Summit. Stop by our stand B900 for an exclusive first look and to discover our igaming content and promo tools!
What are the main challenges you face when participating in such a high-profile event, and how do you plan to differentiate yourselves?
I would say that one of the biggest challenges is standing out from the crowd. With so many industry giants participating in the Summit, it can be tricky to make your brand noticeable. However, it is not impossible. We see this as a perfect opportunity to showcase what makes 1spin4win unique. That’s why we’re attending with a new release, Great Hook Hold and Win, which comes out September 25. As the centrepiece of our stand, it will help us capture visitors’ attention and make a memorable impression.
Another challenge is the short duration of the conference. The Summit is a crucial event, where key decisions for the year ahead are made. However, it can be tough to get everything done in just a few days. That’s why 1spin4win is attending with an extended team this year. At stand B900, you’ll meet our business account management, sales, and marketing teams.
The company’s H1 2025 saw a 30 per cent GGR growth versus H2 2024. To what do you attribute that success?
For 1spin4win, the first half of 2025 has been a period of strong growth across key performance indicators. Compared to H2 2024, we’ve achieved a 30.3 per cent rise in GGR, a 21 per cent surge in bet count, and a 20.7 per cent boost in bet volume.
We believe our success comes from staying true to our roots in creating high-quality, classic online slots. At the same time, we remain committed to keeping our offering fresh, ensuring players enjoy various gameplay experiences. We release at least five new slots each month, constantly adding fresh mechanics, with nine already introduced this year.
Alongside classic fruit slots and themed adventures, this includes holiday specials and our recent invention — a four-slot series inspired by the culture of feudal Japan. Promoted by streamers, the collection drove high engagement from new players. Furthermore, the opening chapter, Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win, ranked among the top five Q2 2025 titles by bet count and led the April charts for number of bets.
Alongside our focus on players, we support our clients by offering a comprehensive suite of promotional tools designed to boost GGR and improve player engagement. This includes Standard and Multiplier Cash & Drops, exclusive pre-releases, and custom-branded games. Notably, our latest network campaign, “Multiplier Madness,” boosted player count by a record 69.4 per cent!
Our efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Over the last six months, we’ve expanded our client network by signing distribution deals with more than 300 new partners. The latest achievements have also gained recognition from the industry leaders, earning us 10 nominations at key igaming awards, including SBC Summit 2025 and SiGMA Euro-Med Awards 2025.
“We believe our success comes from staying true to our roots in creating high-quality, classic online slots.”
Olga Hlukhovskaya, business development director at 1spin4win.
In just four years, 1spin4win has launched more than 150 slots and has a list of over 800 clients. What do you consider to be the key drivers behind this rapid growth?
The main engine behind this impressive growth is our team. None of it would be possible without these exceptional professionals, whose deep industry knowledge and strong expertise make all the difference.
Another crucial factor is our relentless pursuit of new ideas. To keep our classic offering exciting and diverse, we develop engaging visual concepts that tell compelling stories and give each release a unique narrative identity. Furthermore, we constantly explore new mechanics such as Hold and Take All, featured in two of the ten best-performing slots of 2024.
As I’ve already mentioned, 1spin4win prioritises maintaining strong relationships with our partners. We ensure they have access to tried-and-tested promotional tools that help drive player engagement and grow GGR. Currently, our offering includes branded games, exclusive game pre-releases, and network marketing campaigns.
We believe it’s this dedication that has earned the reputation of a reliable igaming provider trusted by prominent brands such as PIN-UP, 1xBet, Rox, BitStarz, LuckyDreams, RocketPlay, and GG.bet.
Speaking of launches, the company maintains a pace of five new slots per month, which is unusual in the industry. How do you manage to keep up this pace and, above all, the creativity and originality when launching a new slot?
Despite a relatively busy monthly release schedule, at 1spin4win, we are not even close to running out of fresh ideas. In fact, there are still many themes our team hasn’t yet introduced to our already rich portfolio.
When it comes to game development, we rely on a data-driven approach. By carefully analysing player behaviour and preferences, we can create relevant content that resonates with our audience.
At 1spin4win, we are also open to experimentation. We continuously break new ground, delivering experiences our players haven’t encountered before. Two examples of this approach are our special four-part Japanese series and the upcoming Great Hook Hold and Win, which we will showcase at SBC Summit in Lisbon. This game is a highly anticipated sequel to the popular Don Catleone Hold and Win, a title that stole the show at ICE 2025 in Barcelona.
Our drive for creativity has been acknowledged by the igaming community, resulting in a range of prestigious nominations at major industry awards. For example, the first slot in our four-game Japanese collection, Tiger’s Steps Hold and Win, has been recently nominated for Casino Title of the Year at the SBC Affiliate Leaders Awards 2025. Additionally, 1spin4win has been recognised as Casino/Slots Developer of the Year – Small at the SBC Awards 2025!
“We continuously break new ground, delivering experiences our players haven’t encountered before.”
Olga Hlukhovskaya, business development director at 1spin4win.
What are the company’s plans for the rest of the year?
At 1spin4win, we have an exciting and eventful six months ahead. Part of our busy schedule is reserved for industry events. Alongside SBC Summit 2025 in Lisbon, our team will attend SiGMA Central Europe in Rome, Italy.
We’re also excited to announce the upcoming launch of Player Room, a dedicated portal offering players insider updates on our games and major wins.
Regarding our portfolio, by the end of the year, there will be even more for players to explore. We are going to grow our lineup to 200 classic online slots!
At 1spin4win, we also have something special prepared for our partners. We plan to run two more network promotions within the next six months, giving our clients an excellent opportunity to improve brand visibility and boost performance metrics with minimal technical involvement.
Speaking of broadening our reach, we aim to onboard 200 new partners, pushing our distribution network to an impressive milestone of 1,000 deals! Regarding global expansion, we’ll continue strengthening 1spin4win’s presence in the Latin American market.
