Catena Media has announced the acquisition of Swedish-focused casino affiliate Slotsia.com and its related assets.

In a statement confirming the deal, Catena said the purchase price amounts to an upfront payment of €3.6 million ($3.8 million), which will be paid as a cash consideration in conjunction with the transfer of the assets.
