Thunderkick API: bring Esqueleto Explosivo and Pink Elephants to your players through one integration

Thunderkick is the Stockholm studio that treats a slot like an illustrated short film. SoftAggregator puts its games on your casino with one API, your wallet and your brand.

Where Thunderkick fits in a casino lobby

Thunderkick fills the gap between casual and hardcore: its games are playful and highly illustrated, and its volatility ranges from gentle to steep. Put them in your lobby when you want titles that feel distinctive without scaring off newer players.

The studio was founded in Stockholm in 2012 by a group of former NetEnt developers, at a time when the Swedish capital was turning into a hub for online casino game design. Its name became known with Esqueleto Explosivo in 2014, a Day of the Dead slot with a skeleton mariachi band, and it has kept its hand-drawn, humorous style ever since.

Two games that show the range

Esqueleto Explosivo and Pink Elephants sit at opposite ends of the Thunderkick scale, and between them they explain why the studio suits so many player types.

Esqueleto Explosivo keeps players entertained with cascades: winning skulls explode, new ones drop in and the multiplier climbs with each consecutive win. It is the kind of game that suits a welcome offer, a first deposit or a player who wants to stretch a small balance.

Pink Elephants takes the opposite approach. Tribal minions hunt for a magical peanut that wakes the elephants, and the real excitement sits in the free spins, where symbols transform and the round can be retriggered. It appeals to players chasing a bigger moment. Around those two, the catalogue also includes Midas Golden Touch and the Beat the Beast mythology series, which bring the same art-first approach to classic themes.

What Thunderkick traffic looks like on your callback

Thunderkick games generate a steady stream of small transactions, especially on the low-volatility titles. Your wallet should answer fast and consistently, because a player on Esqueleto Explosivo can spin for a long time at a modest stake.

Each spin brings a debit, and each winning spin a credit, sent as GET requests to your callback URL with action=debit or action=credit. Amounts are integers in minor units, so a 1.00 stake reads 100. Use call_id to make sure nothing is ever booked twice, use round_id to tie the win to its stake, and apply rb=1 as a reversal of the transaction it refers to. Free spins inside Pink Elephants arrive as credits that may not have a debit of their own; that is expected, and the informational type value must not be used to refuse them.

  • Balance request: return the player's current funds.
  • Debit accepted: error 0 and the new balance.
  • Not enough money: error 1 and the current balance.
  • Bad signature (md5 of timestamp + salt_key, 30-second window), unknown player or internal failure: error 2.
  • Always HTTP 200, whatever the error code.

All of this is spelled out, with parameter tables, in the SoftAggregator API docs. The same callback serves every game type in our catalogue, as described on the casino game aggregator API page.

Currencies for Thunderkick players

Thunderkick's audience is spread across Northern and Western Europe, Canada, Latin America and Asia-Pacific. Each player is created in one currency that stays fixed.

Relevant native currencies include SEK, NOK, DKK, EUR, GBP, CAD, AUD, NZD, BRL, MXN, JPY, KRW, THB, PHP and USD.

The studio list and currency coverage are refreshed all the time, and the API (getProviderList, getGameList) always reflects the current state.

Thunderkick integration FAQ

Where can I get a Thunderkick API for my online casino?

SoftAggregator provides Thunderkick games through its single casino API. You list them with getGameList, launch them with getGame, and every stake and payout is settled on your own seamless wallet, just like the other studios in the catalogue.

Are Thunderkick slots low or high volatility?

Both. Esqueleto Explosivo is rated low volatility by the studio, with a 700x top win, while Pink Elephants is rated high, with 4,096 ways and up to 8,200x. That spread makes Thunderkick useful for balancing a lobby.

How do cascading wins in Esqueleto Explosivo reach my wallet?

The dropping symbols and growing multipliers all happen inside a single round. You receive one debit for the stake and a credit for the round's total win, linked by round_id. There is no step-by-step reporting to handle.

Can I test Thunderkick games before going live?

Yes. Use getGameDemo on titles marked play_for_fun_supported, and try the full flow on our demo white-label casino and demo back office before switching real money on.

Can one account serve Thunderkick on two casino brands with different currencies?

Yes. Each website on your account has its own api_login, api_password, salt_key, callback URL and default currency, and each player keeps the currency set at createPlayer.
