Seamless Payments Arrive as Zimpler Joins Elantil's Marketplace

Elantil has taken another significant step in enhancing its innovative online marketplace by incorporating payment services into its growing ecosystem. The company, known for shaking up traditional platform models, has now partnered with Swedish fintech provider Zimpler, marking a notable expansion beyond content aggregation and sportsbook integration.

Zimpler, launched in Stockholm in 2012, has grown into a major Pay by Bank player in the Nordics. The company has built a reputation for offering a wallet-free, instant banking solution tailored to regulated iGaming markets. Processing over €2.6 billion annually across 25 markets and linked to more than 350 million bank accounts, Zimpler delivers real-time, secure transactions that optimize conversion and compliance.

The company’s Pay & Play feature, Zimpler Go, allows for near-instant player onboarding through real-time Know Your Customer (KYC) verification and immediate deposit capabilities. This has made Zimpler an especially valuable solution in highly regulated jurisdictions such as Estonia, where speed, trust, and regulatory compliance are critical.

With this new collaboration, Zimpler’s full financial service suite becomes instantly accessible to Elantil Marketplace operators through a one-click integration. Operators have the autonomy to contact Zimpler directly, negotiate their own terms, and activate services without intervention from Elantil. All that’s required is to input credentials provided through Elantil’s platform—eliminating delays and extra costs often associated with third-party intermediaries.

The move further strengthens Elantil’s commitment to empowering operators and streamlining access to world-class tools.

John Debono, Chief Technical Officer at Elantil, highlighted the strategic importance of this partnership, stating: “When we launched Elantil’s Marketplace, our ambition was clear: to offer more than just a content aggregator. We wanted a true one‑stop shop where operators can seamlessly connect with the industry’s top service providers. Integrating Zimpler—especially their Pay by Bank solution in regulated markets like Estonia—adds a powerful new dimension. It underscores our dedication to regulated, reliable providers and expands the toolkit we offer operators, ensuring we deliver the most complete and compliant service possible.”

Sarah Nunn, Partnership Manager at Zimpler, also praised the collaboration:
“Partnerships like this are how we bring smarter financial solutions to the forefront. The Elantil team has built an impressive platform with real momentum, and we’re excited to contribute by making seamless, compliant payments more accessible to operators. Together, we’re helping businesses scale faster with fewer barriers and greater confidence.”

AvatarUX Integration Sets New Speed Record for Elantil

Elantil continues to set new benchmarks for speed and efficiency. Its latest addition—award-winning game developer AvatarUX Studios —was integrated into the marketplace in record-breaking time, beating its previous speed record of just two hours.

AvatarUX is widely respected in the iGaming industry for its inventive slot mechanics and highly visual game design. The studio is the creator of the renowned PopWins™ mechanic, along with other standout features such as ZapReel™ and Fortune Arrows. These innovations have helped AvatarUX earn acclaim and establish a strong foothold in the competitive slot development landscape.

Through this new alliance, AvatarUX’s content is now available to Elantil's operator partners. As with all integrations in the Elantil ecosystem, the process allows for direct provider communication and individual contract negotiation—again emphasizing operator control and flexibility. No revenue sharing is involved, and Elantil simply facilitates the connection and enables immediate, one-click integration once terms are agreed upon.

This streamlined approach means operators can rapidly expand their offerings while maintaining cost efficiency and full control over platform decisions.

Yggdrasil’s Award-Winning Library Now Available on Elantil

Continuing its push to provide operators with high-value content options, Elantil has also secured a strategic partnership with Yggdrasil, one of the most decorated and established names in iGaming. With a catalog of over 400 high-quality games and a trophy case of 14 industry awards, Yggdrasil is a prized addition to the Marketplace.

Beyond its expansive game library, Yggdrasil brings powerful engagement tools, including its signature BOOST promotional features and a suite of cutting-edge gameplay mechanics that elevate user experience.

Elantil’s model again gives operators direct access to the studio. There’s no intermediary, no commission-sharing, and no fixed contract terms imposed by Elantil. All operators have to do is approach Yggdrasil, negotiate terms, and, once finalized, plug in the integration keys provided by Elantil.

This simple integration process ensures operators can onboard new games quickly and on their own terms, reducing time to market and allowing them to offer fresh content to players without delay.
