Atemi Announces Record Growth in Q2 2020
Atemi, the igaming super affiliate, has delivered a record 42,500 high value, high intent, new depositing customers to operators in the second quarter, an increase of 72% year over year. Atemi’s revenue of $13.25m was also a record and represents an increase of 42% compared to Q2 2019.
“Despite the lack of Sport, our business has continued to demonstrate strong organic growth. Operators were moving their advertising budgets away from ‘Sports’ and into ‘Casino’ during the quarter. We have maintained and grown these budgets in Q3 even with the Premier League’s return which is really positive. We understand that we send the highest intent customers of any affiliate partner and ‘Casino’ has proven a much better investment opportunity than Sports over the past six months,” Manuel Berndoerfler, COO of Atemi, said.
Atemi also said it is preparing to deploy a $19m marketing campaign for its Betcompare brand this coming season.
“The recent months have certainly had a huge impact on Sports affiliation and we were rewarded for our ratio of Casino to Sports business. We do expect Sports to return to pre-pandemic levels over the next 12 months provided we do not see a second wave of the virus”, Richard Skelhorn, founder of Atemi, said.
“We’ll invest more than $50m marketing our gaming comparison sites over the coming year, all things being well. Our early success in the Sports vertical has proven we will again send the highest quality customers available via the affiliate channel. We look forward to strategically deploying our capital to further support our growth in the 20/21 season and remain hopeful that things return to normal by the end of the year, without seeing a second wave. Should that happen, we are perfectly placed to pivot client budgets and any uncertainty plays to Atemi’s strengths being a media buyer as we are able to switch focus from one product to another with short notice.”
“We also see the imminent opening of Google’s US advertising market being an accelerator of our growth and global presence in the coming months and we’re really excited by this.”
“Ultimately the next twelve months for Atemi is about being committed to the growth plan but flexible enough to adapt to any headwinds and help our clients invest and grow, pandemic agnostic.”

Today, on 15 January, SOFTSWISS, an international tech company with over 15 years of experience in iGaming, celebrates the 7th anniversary of its affiliate marketing platform and highlights some key product milestones.
Launched in 2018, Affilka by SOFTSWISS has quickly become a leading affiliate management platform powering the iGaming industry. Celebrating its 7th anniversary, the product now supports over 440 brands, reflecting its growing influence. Notably, the number of iGaming operators using the platform increased by 37% over the past year.
Providing cutting-edge tools like the newly presented Geo-Distributed Redirect feature, the trusted Comprehensive Reporting, Flexible Commission Constructor, and Built-in Payment Processing, the platform ensures operators are aligned with relevant affiliate marketing trends, optimising affiliate program management and elevating operational efficiency.
User Experience Optimisation with Geo-Distributed Redirect Feature
This feature aligns with the increasing focus on user experience optimisation and minimising friction in user journeys. Rapid, seamless redirects fastened by 2.5 to 5 times maximise user engagement, reduce bounce rates, and improve conversions, reflecting the industry’s shift toward prioritising customer-centric design.
Simulated tests conducted in one region showed a reduction from 1.5 seconds to just 300–500 milliseconds – ranking among the fastest response rates in the industry. As a result, the feature has driven a 3.5% to 7% increase in users successfully reaching casino sites, leading to higher registrations and deposits.
Comprehensive Reporting for Data-Driven Decision-Making
Affilka by SOFTSWISS offers comprehensive reports with near real-time statistics. This advanced analytics tool aligns with the growing reliance on complete actionable data. It provides a competitive edge, as both operators and affiliates can receive timely information to make informed decisions. The faster affiliates receive data on player activity, the quicker they can adjust their marketing strategies to attract higher-quality traffic.
Flexible Commission Constructor Empovers Customisation
Affiliates and operators are moving toward highly tailored commission structures to better align with performance metrics. The Flexible Commission Constructor provided by Affilka by SOFTSWISS reflects this demand, enabling the creation of CPA, RevShare, Hybrid, and other bespoke models to meet diverse business needs.
Built-in Payment Processing for Seamless Financial Operations
As the affiliate industry expands globally, ensuring timely, secure, and multi-currency payment solutions is critical. Built-in Payment Processing aligns with the trend of streamlining financial workflows, fostering trust, and improving affiliate retention through hassle-free payouts.
Affilka by SOFTSWISS integrates multiple payment systems, including Neteller, Skrill, Cryptoprocessing, and bank transfers, facilitating efficient and timely affiliate payouts directly from the platform’s back office. This seamless payment processing enhances operational efficiency and ensures affiliates receive their earnings promptly.
Sharing plans for 2025 Anastasia Borovaya, Head of Affilka by SOFTSWISS, highlights: “We are going to enhance our platform with powerful features like Cohort Analysis, Traffic Report for affiliates, and improved Subaffiliate Module with new commission plans and reporting tools. The additional geo-specific payment methods for affiliate cashouts will strengthen the platform. We will also continue to focus on optimising traffic delivery, load balancing and enhancing system stability and fault tolerance to ensure uninterrupted traffic flow.”
Cohort Analysis will provide deeper insights into player behaviour over time. Traffic Report for affiliates will ensure comprehensive data on user clicks by click country, user agent, device, operating system, and other vital criteria.
