Thunderkick eyes North American expansion with PointsBet deal in Ontario

New Partnership with Pointsbet banner

Stockholm, 15th December 2025 – Independent slots studio Thunderkick has taken another significant step in strengthening its North American market position, striking an agreement with operator PointsBet in Ontario.

The latest deal follows a series of commercial partnerships forged after Thunderkick’s Canadian market entry 18 months ago, with the aim to gain momentum in an emerging province and firmly establish its North American footprint.

Founded in Australia in 2017, PointsBet has secured a strong foothold in Ontario since the opening of the province’s regulated market in 2022. The integration of Thunderkick’s slots will further support PointsBet’s growth and highlights the two parties’ shared commitment to deliver high-quality content to players across Ontario.

The initial roster of titles launching with PointsBet includes standout releases Carnival Queen 2, Midas Golden Touch 3, and Esqueleto Explosivo 3, with a planned rollout of the studio’s wider portfolio soon to follow.

As an official partner of the iconic Toronto Raptors and Toronto Maple Leafs, PointsBet has built extensive audience reach and an authentically Canadian appeal through its prominent brand collaborations. Thunderkick is well-positioned to capitalise on this exposure as it continues to expand its footprint in Ontario.

Svante Sahlström, CCO at Thunderkick, said: “Since its Canadian launch, PointsBet has forged relationships rooted in the country’s cultural identity, which firmly aligns with Thunderkick’s core philosophy of going deeper, not wider.

“It is a reputable and recognised brand across the globe, and we look forward to supporting its continued North American growth with our class-leading content.”

Brooke Hilton, Head of Casino at PointsBet Canada, added: “PointsBet has made a point of distinguishing itself from the crowd, from our local on-the-ground presence in Ontario to our premium online casino portfolio.

“We strive to partner with the very best, and when it comes to casino content, the addition of Thunderkick’s popular slots will enable us to continue providing players across the province with diverse, impactful gaming experiences.”
