Q2 revenues amounted to 7.0m EUR compared to 5.7m EUR the same quarter previous year, representing a growth of 24.1%. EBITDA margin amounted to 40.2% compared to 51.1% previous year as an expected effect of the Lead Republik revenues having slightly lower margin as well as our efforts within geographical expansion – in line with our strategic goals.”

CEO OSKAR MÜHLBACH COMMENTS ON THE QUARTER

“As expected, we witnessed a significant drop within our sports related products due to Covid-19 and the decreased traffic to these assets as an effect of cancelled sport events. This is something we expect, and to some extent already are able to witness, will regain traction again once sports return back to normal. Organic growth was -1.2% which considering the challenging sports market conditions was made possible thanks to strong performance from our portfolio of casino assets, with Norway and Sweden leading the way.

European Gaming Congress 2024 (Warsaw, Poland)

Working remotely during Covid-19 has in contrast to what one might believe, proven to be very efficient for us and we have been able to notice improvements with regards to cooperation, communication as well as performance management. We have therefore decided to permanently move into a flexible working setup in which we replace the traditional office with a dynamic interaction hub combined with remote work. In addition to spending less on office related costs and administration the concept allows us to quickly scale up and down according to what is best at every given situation.

I wish to mention a few examples of initiatives developed and delivered by the remote organization during the quarter: Howtobet.com – a full sports wiki for nerds and beginners, with global potential in line with our strategic operational goals of adding Flagship products to our portfolio as well as to gradually increase our presence within other gambling verticals than casino – such as sports betting. We have also launched a completely new product line called “Extended Audience” which is an important milestone with regards to our strategic goal to diversify our offering. So far, we have sold the Extended Audience product to one of the major operators on the Swedish market, but we are in dialogue with several more.

We have furthermore secured our 3rd license in the US, in the state of Colorado. We have also received preliminary positive decisions from both Pennsylvania and West Virginia which we expect to receive the final approval from soon.

Revenues for July amount to 2.4m EUR, despite sports still trailing behind due to Covid-19. Activity was high, following the temporary re-regulations on the Swedish market. Despite us significantly increasing our revenues from outside the Nordics to close to 20%, the volatility on the Swedish market due to the re regulations makes it challenging to navigate. Although volatility might be high, I am excited by the combination of Raketech being both debt free and operationally stronger than ever. This allows us to continue our efforts to deliver on our strategic goals within product development and diversification as well as geographical expansion, organically and through M&A.

The consecutive win reinforces Affilka’s growing leadership in iGaming affiliate marketing software. Over the past 12 months, the product has consistently evolved, launching a series of powerful new features.

The platform also introduced the new Traffic Report, which provides real-time, click-to-registration and click-to-FTD metrics with multi-dimensional filters. Another new feature allows affiliates to access data on their marketing campaigns and tracking links directly via API, enabling automated data extraction and custom integrations.

At the end of last year, Affilka rolled out the Geo-Distributed Redirect feature, which boosts site visits by reducing redirect times from 1.5 seconds to 300–500 milliseconds, and the Cohort Analysis Report, which offers deeper insights into player behaviour.

Anastasia Borovaya, Head of Affilka by SOFTSWISS, commented on the recognition: “Winning this award two years in a row is an incredible achievement for our team. It reflects our hard work, creativity, and deep commitment to the continuing improvement of our platform. What makes this win special is knowing that the tools we build are already helping our partners solve real challenges.

Affilka by SOFTSWISS, an award-winning affiliate management software platform, has announced a suite of new product updates for the affiliates. The latest release introduces a Traffic Report with advanced clicks analytics, an API for extracting campaigns and tracking links, and a sub-affiliate NGR-based revenue share model.

Traffic Report: In-depth Click Analysis

This new Traffic Report focuses on detailed click-level analytics, offering in-depth insights into clicks, registrations, deposits, and conversion rates such as click-to-reg and click-to-FTD – all in one place. It includes several key features for flexible data analysis:

Multi-dimensional filtering and data grouping: The report enables users to filter and break down the data into granular views across multiple dimensions, offering detailed insights by traffic source, campaign, country, device type, IP address, and more. Notably, click data is transferred to the report in real time, providing instant visibility into user activity.
CSV data export: The report supports one-click CSV export, allowing affiliates to easily download raw data for offline analysis or sharing.
Historical data access: Affiliates can review traffic statistics from 1 January 2023, enabling year-on-year comparisons and long-term trend evaluation.

Gleb Bichan, Product Lead at Affilka by SOFTSWISS, comments: “At Affilka, we know how crucial it is for operators and affiliates alike to make data-driven decisions. That’s why we’re introducing tools like the Traffic Report to help partners become more productive and uncover new insights faster.”

API for Marketing Campaigns and Tracking Links

In addition to the existing Reports API, affiliates can now access data on their marketing campaigns and tracking links directly via API, allowing for automated data extraction and custom integrations. With this API access, users can retrieve up-to-date lists of marketing campaigns, promo codes, and related performance metrics directly via API calls. This improvement helps Affilka clients automate their reporting workflows and integrate affiliate data with external BI tools, reducing manual effort and ensuring timely access to key information.

New Sub-affiliate Revenue Share Model

Responding to client feedback, Affilka’s team also features a new sub-affiliate reward type. This allows affiliates to earn a commission based on the Net Gaming Revenue (NGR) generated by players referred by their sub-affiliates, offering a more direct revenue-sharing approach. By aligning earnings with the actual revenue brought in by sub-affiliates, the update incentivises collaboration and gives experienced affiliates a stronger stake in mentoring their referred partners.

Gleb Bichan adds: “For us, it’s important that affiliates not only use the product but also feel it’s built with their real needs in mind. We regularly gather feedback and implement improvements that make daily workflows more transparent and efficient. Features like the Traffic Report, API access, and new reward types are direct responses to partner requests – and we’re not stopping there. We plan to introduce even more tools designed to simplify affiliate operations, so stay tuned for upcoming updates.”

Affilka by SOFTSWISS will be presented at iGB in London from 3 to 4 July 2025. Attendees of the event can learn more about new features directly from the Affilka team and see how these innovations support better affiliate programme management.
