Here are the 11 categories whose awards are up for grabs this year. We were very meticulous in selecting the categories and nominees based on current trends and iGaming innovations, with a touch of expertise from our savvy casino analysts.
This year, the AWARDS cover everything from groundbreaking game releases and creative studios to trusted platforms, responsible gambling practices, and the most exciting newcomers in the industry. Whether you are a slots enthusiast, a casino geek, or a sports betting fan, there's a category that speaks directly to your experience - and your vote helps decide who leads in 2026!
Cast Your Vote in 30 Seconds and Make Your Voice Heard
SlotsCalendar AWARDS is all about community. Players are the only voters. That's what makes these awards unique in this industry. No panels, just real players making real decisions based on their real experiences. Voting opens on April 20th and closes on May 11th. You are free to vote in as many categories as you like, but remember, you must vote in at least 5 different categories, and you will be counted once you hit the “Submit Your Vote” button. That is also how you get entered into the draw to win the iPhone 17. Our advice? Vote across all the categories, you feel like your opinion can help us crown the best nominee. Let's achieve meaningful results and award the worthy!
One lucky voter will be rewarded with a brand-new iPhone 17. Once you submit your selection of at least 5 votes, you are automatically registered for the raffle. We will draw a winner on June 15th using random extraction software. The winner's name will be revealed live on the SlotsCalendar YouTube channel. We will also contact the winner via email. If your name is extracted, you are going to have 5 days to respond until we redraw. To ensure fairness, we will request a copy of the winner's ID to verify their identity and age. This is serious, and we do our best to keep our community's integrity intact. Do not lose any more seconds. Go and submit your vote!
Meet The Community Behind The Votes
We have tens of thousands of judges all around the world. Each of you, the players, is what we believe to be the factor that differentiates these awards from any other similar event.
Players should decide who delivers the most ambitious iGaming services. Creating a list including every voter would be difficult. Our community is massive.
However, we want to give back and show how much we praise their implication by featuring 8 standout players from the SlotsCalendar community of more than 1.5 million members. Their unique playstyle and preferences are what really make them valuable and stand out.
That's the supreme jury we will ever need for the AWARDS.
We are proud to announce that for the 3rd edition of SlotsCalendar AWARDS, AffPapa is our official partner once again. Thanks to their support, we are able to take this celebratory event to the next level. The AWARDS gala will take place on the 20th of May at the AffPapa Conference in Madrid. Voting takes place online, with winners being announced live on stage.
Previous Winners' Hall of Fame
Before we crown our new champions, we want to take a moment to celebrate those who managed to conquer our hearts in the first two editions. From slot developers to innovative casinos, they set the bar high for this third edition of AWARDS, and they deserve our recognition once more!
