Former Checkin.com CEO and senior payments executive joins Cubeia to lead its global revenue strategy
Cubeia, the Sweden-based provider of turnkey crypto casino solutions, has appointed Christian Karlsson as Chief Revenue Officer, effective 3 August 2026.
Karlsson brings more than a decade of commercial leadership experience spanning fintech, identity verification and iGaming. 
He joins Cubeia from Nasdaq First North Stockholm-listed Checkin.com, where he served as Acting Chief Executive Officer between 2024 and 2025. This followed six years as the company’s Chief Commercial Officer. During his tenure, Karlsson also served as CEO of GetID, the group’s biometric identity-verification subsidiary.
Earlier in his career, Karlsson held senior industry positions at Gaming Innovation Group, where he served as Head of Client Operations, and LeoVegas, where he led the operator’s payments and fraud strategy as Head of Payments and Fraud.
In his new role, Karlsson will lead Cubeia’s global revenue strategy and work closely with its product and technical teams to support operators as they launch, scale and maintain compliance across new and existing markets.
Christian Karlsson, Chief Revenue Officer at Cubeia, said: “When I met the team and got to know Cubeia, it quickly became clear that there is something special about the company.
“Cubeia has enjoyed several outstanding years, delivering exceptional growth while building a strong and profitable business. At the same time, I believe there is still tremendous potential ahead.
“The opportunity to help lead the commercial organisation through its next phase of growth is incredibly exciting. I look forward to getting to know our customers, partners and colleagues, and working together to build an even stronger Cubeia.”
Kim Sandström, Interim CEO of Cubeia, added: “Christian has built and scaled commercial and platform businesses through IPOs, market expansion and industry change. He also understands what operators need from a technology partner because he has sat on that side of the table.
“As we continue to expand Cubeia’s operator footprint, his experience across payments, compliance and partnerships makes him exactly the right person to lead our revenue strategy.”
