In 2018, Relax Gaming launched its in-house studio, producing iconic titles such as the *Money Train* series and *Tumble* series. The company also operates partnership programmes – Silver Bullet and Powered By Relax – that attract innovative third-party studios and expand its distribution network. Headquartered in Malta, with additional offices in Tallinn, Malmö and Belgrade, Relax Gaming employs approximately 367 people. In 2024 the company unveiled Relax Vantage, a self-service business portal designed to streamline integration, compliance and performance tracking for partners. Known for its speed-to-market, technological innovation and strong integrity, Relax Gaming continues to push boundaries across the iGaming landscape.
Detailed Review
Relax Gaming was established with the ambition of simplifying worldwide content delivery for online gambling operators. Its first major milestone was the launch of the Relax Apex aggregation platform, which drastically reduced integration complexity. The company expanded its product verticals over the following years, launching a flagship poker product, a casino platform, and a bingo offering. In 2018 it began building in-house games, quickly gaining recognition for titles like Money Train 2 and Tumble that became industry record-breakers.
The company’s partnership models are central to its strategy. The Silver Bullet programme invites independent studios to distribute their games through Relax’s network with minimal technical friction. The Powered By Relax programme allows operators to access the entire aggregation catalogue under their own brand. These programmes, combined with the core aggregation platform, have propelled Relax Gaming to a network of over 900 operator brands.
Geographically, Relax has pursued regulated markets early, launching poker in France in 2019 and holding key licences. Its physical footprint includes a strategic headquarters in Malta, product development hubs in Tallinn (Estonia), a studio in Malmö (Sweden), and a Belgrade (Serbia) office focused on proprietary casino content.
In 2024 the company introduced Relax Vantage, a cloud-based business portal that gives operators and suppliers self-service tools for game management, compliance, and analytics. This reflects Relax’s emphasis on operational efficiency and partner empowerment.
Recent leadership appointments underscore continued growth: Martin Stålros became CEO after serving as COO for nearly a decade; Tony O’Mahony joined as Chief Product Officer in August 2025; and Kaveh Emami was promoted to Chief Growth Officer in October 2025.
Relax Gaming’s reputation for technical excellence, strong partner relationships, and a diverse content library positions it as a major force in the iGaming aggregation and supply sector.
