NSoft: Doing Business in Q1 2021: COO overview
In the first quarter of 2021, NSoft’s business operations marked growth in all the key areas despite the global COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns.
By Dražan Planinić, NSoft COO
Our overall business turnover grew by 13% compared to Q1 2020, with online being the stronghold of the business with 59% growth in Q1 2021. There was an exceptional growth on our Sportsbook software – the online traffic doubled compared to the same quarter last year.
The best performing product in the total number of tickets was Live Sports Betting solution on online/mobile on every market, with a turnover increase of 75% in Q1 2021 compared to Q1 2020.
The teamwork and commitment of all of us are showing their strength. We have always been known for a strong sense of community within the company and strong ties to the customers. We see them as our long-term partners with whom we thrive together.
In the long run, our primary focus is a further development of the betting game portfolio and new features of the existing betting solutions, entering new markets, and quality over quantity.
Where software meets hardware
The biggest hit that marked Q1 2021 is the finalisation of the merging process of STARK Solution to NSoft. Internally, this change straightens our position in terms of the workforce as well as financially as it adds another stream of revenue – and it’s a quite valuable one. A manufacturer of premium betting terminals, STARK added a high-quality hardware component to our diversified betting and gaming software development business for the betting and gaming industry. This is the definition of being an omnichannel supplier!
Despite the lock-down, the new normal, pandemic, land-based business will thrive. Our pole position gives our partners and us tremendous flexibility in planning and business dynamics. NSoft-STARK synergy has generated great deals in the first three months of 2021. Despite the numerous problems caused by the pandemic: restrictions on travel and transport, closing of retail shops, we managed to deliver our terminals to Poland, Croatia, Belgium, Germany, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro among others.
New strongholds, new customers
A few crucial projects were running simultaneously in Q1 2021 although there are still travel restrictions caused by the lockdown.
The first quarter marked the entering into four new markets and acquisition of 14 new clients from France, Central African Republic, Dominican Republic, Turkey, and few others. Word of mouth is strong even without physical presence, trade shows, and very limited travelling options. This shows our strength and the power of our brand.
We’re at the forefront of new markets and at the same time strengthening our presence and working on new projects in the traditionally strong CEE market.
Tech improvements, new offering and features
Q1 2021 was very hectic when we talked about new products and new features. We have updated our internal processes from the tech side and introduce even more strict security rules and policies. This activity is part of our regular work in this field. We regularly perform stress tests as we understand the importance of this business aspect and the impact not just on us but also on our clients.
Lightning games
In Q1 2021, the Lightning games have seen the light of the day. This addition to the portfolio was a logical step in the overall strategy dedicated to enhance online channel offering.
They were developed to provide online players with a better user experience and give our partners the flexibility to place them into virtual or casino categories. The possibility of putting them in both categories: virtual games and casino games is something which our partners highly praised.
Lightning Lucky Six and Lightning Roulette are faster and simplified versions of our popular games, which have been on the throne of our product offer for a long time thanks to great user experience and wide acceptance of the products.
Lottery
NSoft Lottery is also a novelty in our product range. With this product, we wanted to satisfy players who like to bet on real lottery draws worldwide. So, we have a full solution based on Betradar’s Unified Odds Feed on over 6,500 events per week from over 30 countries.
NSoft Slots – the all-new exciting world of games
We are incredibly proud of the fact that we have mapped the road for entering the world of slots. NSoft Casino is a novelty that we want to present for the first time to our partners, who have so far only been able to integrate various casino games on our platform. Now, we can boast with our in-house slot games that will be on the market soon, but we’ll talk more about that in the Q2 of 2021.
Boosted NSoft Sportsbook Platform
We have raised the Sportsbook Platform to a new level on all channels with new functionalities, and we continue with the Cash Out feature. Cash Out is a must-have, and the existing clients have already upgraded the Sportsbook to a new UX version that includes it.
In retail, we are still one step ahead of our competition and have brought our retail solution to perfection. We’re following the same steps to reach the same level on all other delivery channels. With remote device manager, we are offering a sportsbook software solution for land-based operators like no other on the market.
NSoft Vision
Our AI boosted video management system for surveillance and business analytics is not a rising star any more. It is a mature product, market-ready with a small but steadily growing client base and a strong reseller and partner base. New features, new experts working daily on improvements and expansion to the European market made a lot of buzz around NSoft Vision.
Q1 result predicts a very successful year
Even after the first quarter, we can recognise the global direction results we are aiming for. We are investing in cooperations with other platform providers such as Playtech, iSoftBet, EveryMatrix, Blue Ocean Gaming, Oryx and many others.
The business growth and the team morale keep us going. We are finishing a new round of the onboard process for our new 20 colleagues with 13 more to join our team in the following days. New people always bring new ideas and energy, so we are looking forward to an exciting summer with EURO 2020. New normal is different for anyone, and our is: keep up, go strong, do smart!

Final Call for the N1 SEO Traffic Cup 2 Weeks to Win
N1 SEO Traffic Cup — the first tournament in the N1 Traffic Cups series by N1 Partners — is entering its final stretch, with April 30 being the last day of the promo. Over 250 teams are already actively driving traffic to N1 Partners brands, as anyone can win — no matter when they joined the race.
Winning main rewards is absolutely realistic — final results are based on your team’s efficiency; there’s not a limited number of spots to compete for. All participants who reach one of the four prize tiers get rewarded, so the key focus is scaling your performance metrics.
Learn how to strengthen your current positions within two weeks — or enter the race effectively at the final stage!
Tips to run traffic for N1 SEO Traffic Cup: expert edition
Improving your results is always possible, particularly when you have access to fresh analytics.
The N1 Partners team has made it easier for participants by sharing insights from SEO experts:
-
- Best approaches for iGaming SEO
At the moment, classic SEO listings with an offerwall, cross-brand SEO and parasite SEO strategies across several Tier-1 GEOs are performing well.
- Best approaches for iGaming SEO
- Top products for SEO traffic in N1 Partners
Among the products showing the best conversion rates and stability are HollyWin, Slot Mafia, Lucky Hunter, RollXO, and Slot Lounge.
- Top GEOs for SEO traffic

N1 SEO Traffic Cup: FAQ for final-stage entrants
The N1 Partners team understands that joining at a later stage can feel more challenging, so they’ve collected the most common questions from affiliates and shared practical advice.
Where should a newly registered affiliate start to make the most of the first 48 hours?
“If an affiliate joins during the final two weeks, the key to success is to stay focused. I would recommend immediately concentrating on familiar GEOs and brands to get the first FTDs as quickly as possible.
The next step is to evaluate whether you have the resources to work with multiple brands. In the N1 SEO Traffic Cup, the number of brands directly affects the Brand Coefficient and overall results. And of course, it’s important to sync with your affiliate manager from the very beginning to build the shortest path to your first results.
There is no single fixed prize — affiliates can reach any reward level. Even if an affiliate does not reach the Level, generating a minimum of 20 FTD on at least one brand still qualifies them for the prize draw. That means there are no losers, and you can join the game at any time,” says Alexa Bond, Head of Affiliates at N1 Partners.
What mistakes do participants most often make when trying to speed up before the final?
“The most common mistake is trying to scale quickly by testing new GEOs and approaches where the team lacks expertise.
This usually leads to spreading resources unwisely, lower quality, and higher spend. The worst-case scenario involves campaign stoppages. At the final stage, it’s much more important to stay focused on stable sources and further optimise working strategies rather than testing new directions,” says Dmitry Filippov, Affiliate Team Lead (SEO) at N1 Partners.
Join the N1 SEO Traffic Cup — 2 weeks is enough to win!
N1 SEO Traffic Cup: conditions explained
Period: March 1 – April 30, 2026
Results: by May 10
Entry: from 20 FTD per brand
The mechanics are simple: you earn points (N1 Cup Score) based on generated FTDs, then multiply them by the brand coefficient.
The more brands you work with, the higher your multiplier and the faster your results grow:
- 1 brand — x1
- 2–3 brands — x2
- 4+ brands — x5
This means you can not only scale volumes but also accelerate growth by driving traffic to multiple products.

JackpotX
Vegangster Integrates JackpotX Across 5 Brands, Reaches ~25% Player Opt-In.
Vegangster has expanded its partnership with Shared Luck by integrating JackpotX, a player-funded jackpot system now live across five client brands. Early results show an average opt-in rate of around 25%, with players actively choosing to join the jackpot via a simple opt-in toggle.
Across these deployments, JackpotX is configured as a player-funded system, where a portion of player activity contributes to a shared prize pool. This creates a continuously growing jackpot that runs alongside standard gameplay, adding a persistent betting incentive without interrupting the core gaming experience.
Unlike traditional fixed or operator-funded jackpots, this model scales with player activity. As participation increases, the prize pool grows, reinforcing visibility and engagement over time.
For operators, the integration introduces a retention and monetisation layer that is directly tied to player volume. Because the jackpot is funded through gameplay, it reduces reliance on upfront promotional spend while still creating a strong engagement loop.
Michael Oziransky, Chief Product Officer at Vegangster, commented:
“What stands out with JackpotX is flexibility. Operators can run multi-brand jackpots and tailor how they work, with real-time performance visibility. This made it easy for us to use a player-funded approach and boost engagement without additional operator spend.”
The integration requires minimal operational overhead and can be deployed across brands without complex configuration, allowing operators to activate jackpot-driven engagement quickly.
With JackpotX now live and scaling across brands, Vegangster and Shared Luck plan to expand the partnership further, focusing on deeper gamification mechanics and wider rollout across the Vegangster client network.
About SharedLuck
Sharedluck builds engagement infrastructure for online casinos. JackpotX, its flagship product, provides flexible jackpot creation, multi-brand management, real-time analytics, and tools built to increase player retention and overall casino revenue.
About Vegangster
Vegangster provides a full-stack iGaming platform engineered for speed, scalability, and operator control. Its turnkey, white-label, and sweepstakes solutions integrate casino and sportsbook content, payments, CRM, compliance, and social features into a single mobile-first system.
