Sahlström will guide the company’s entry into new markets while helping secure further partnerships and ensuring growth in existing key regions.

He said: “I’m looking forward to hitting the ground running, especially with ICE just around the corner, and focusing on delivering best-in-class customer service that I believe will set us apart from other providers.

“This year is set to be full of substantial growth and success for Thunderkick and I’m excited to help drive that.”

Sahlström spent six years in the igaming payments sector with Zimpler and Trustly, and has also worked as head of new markets for ELK Studios.

Sven Grip, CEO at Thunderkick, added Sahlström joins the developer at “an extremely exciting time, with entry into Ontario on the horizon alongside substantial growth worldwide.”

“We’re in a fantastic position to keep rising, and Svante is sure to play a pivotal part in taking us to the next level,” Grip said.
