Hi,
Is "Freecell Solitaire" the same as "Payday Freecell Solitaire"? 

No, they were different games.

I believe so.

Payday Freecell is still there.

True, but how popular were the "light & fun" games? I don't remember seeing any more than double digits at any given time.

Perhaps that's the reason why they let the agreement expire?

If not enough people are playing the games and it's costing more than it's worth for the rights to the game, Pogo might decide to invest in something different.

If I remember correctly, those game are easy to play and win without buying gems.  Maybe that was a factor.  Those in game Power Up purchases would help offset the cost that pogo paid to the producers of the games.

Whatever the reason, it's all about the money.

The same thing happened with Hasbro. Maybe they'll end up renewing after a couple of weeks?
True, it may still emerge.

I liked FreeCell and, occasionally, Sudoku.  I wonder why they didn't renew.

I can confirm this as I had badges that were not done and they have been rewarded.

Pogo has made an official statement that their agreement with Arkadium (the games developer) has ended and the games will no longer be available to play.

Interesting.
