Project Odin – Our New Partners Platform 

Codenamed project Odin, our new Partners Platform has been in development for months and brings together many exciting projects.  

Odin features extensive improvements to every aspect of the user experience – menu layout, graphic design, technical stability and cross-platform functionality.  

Odin is replacing our old Partners Platform and will serve as the stable foundation for all our new services and features going forward.  

We are proud to launch our new Partners Platform and share all of the exciting new improvements and services that are now available for use.  
 

New Services Available 

Odin is launching with four brand-new services! These are:
