Kendoo has launched its slot games on Starcasino.be, entering the Belgian market for the first time. The partnership was announced on October 13, 2026, and brings games featuring Hold and Win mechanics, multi-pot features and jackpots to the operator’s platform.
The launch gives Belgian players access to Kendoo’s titles through Starcasino, which already operates in the country’s online casino market. The companies have not shared how many games are included in the launch or disclosed the financial details of their agreement.
Kendoo Adds Its Slot Portfolio To Starcasino.be
The partnership makes Kendoo’s games available to Belgian players through Starcasino.be, an online casino operating under an A+ licence from the Belgian Gaming Commission. According to the announcement published by European Gaming, the deal represents Kendoo’s first distribution agreement in the country.
The portfolio includes games built around Hold and Win respins, multi-pot formats and jackpot-integrated features. These mechanics form a central part of Kendoo’s catalogue, which is distributed through online casino operators and gaming platforms.
Olga Mugliett, commercial director at Kendoo, said the company was pleased to bring its portfolio to Starcasino’s players. She also described the agreement as part of its wider approach to working with established operators and entering regulated markets. S. Maene, director at Starcasino, said Kendoo’s games use mechanics already familiar to Belgian players, including Hold and Win and jackpot pots. Maene added that Starcasino expects to add more of Kendoo’s titles as the portfolio develops.
The companies have not disclosed the financial details of the partnership, the number of titles available at launch or a schedule for further additions. The announcement also does not identify any exclusive distribution rights attached to the agreement.
The deal follows Kendoo’s existing distribution activity across international markets. In an earlier company update, the supplier reported agreements with more than 50 operators across 25 markets by early 2026. Its official news page lists the Starcasino partnership alongside other portfolio and distribution announcements.
Belgium’s Licensing Rules Shape The Market Entry
Belgium has specific licensing requirements for companies that want to offer online casino games. According to the Belgian Gaming Commission, operators need an A+ licence to run an online casino, and this requires a corresponding licence for a land-based casino.
For game developers such as Kendoo, working with an established operator is one way to enter the market. The partnership brings its games to Starcasino.be, though neither company has said whether more titles will be added or if Kendoo plans to sign similar deals with other Belgian operators.
The licensing framework means that suppliers entering Belgium must account for the rules governing the operators through which their games are offered. The country’s system covers different forms of gambling, including online casinos, gaming arcades and betting, with separate licence categories for each.
A regulatory overview published by ICLG also outlines the link between online gambling licences and corresponding land-based authorisations. Its portfolio focuses on slot games built around Hold and Win mechanics, multi-pot features and jackpots.
The Belgian agreement adds another market to its distribution network, although the companies have not provided figures showing the deal’s expected contribution to revenue or player activity. Starcasino.be operates in Belgium, while Starcasino Group also has operations in the Netherlands and Spain.
The agreement means Kendoo’s games are available through another online casino operator. Whether the partnership leads to a broader selection of titles or further deals in Belgium remains to be seen.
