Testing Software for Betting Terminals

Previous NSoft stories have touched on SSBTs from multiple perspectives. From the very beginnings of manufacturing betting terminals at Stark Solutions (a part of NSoft’s cluster), its steep rise in the global betting market with exceptional quality and customer satisfaction, and all the way to the NSoft’s core SSBT software aimed for betting and igaming operators for managing entire terminal fleets with ease. However, there is one particular aspect we haven’t covered yet: how do we make sure assembled SSBTs are ready for shipping and installation in the first place?! Well, that process isn’t always the easiest one. It is enough to imagine batch orders of 80 terminals, each with a dozen of hardware components, peripheral devices, and cables. The number of individual units required for testing is ten times that. The most considerable merit goes to dedicated technicians that patiently assemble and test the working functionality of each unit. However, as a natural step forward, we indeed recognised the importance of improving the process with technology and acted upon it. As a result, our technicians now have a helping hand from a software tool we simply named System Test Tool.

Automatisation of QA process

System Test Tool is developed in-house with the idea of standardising and speeding up our internal SSBT testing procedures. It makes sure every system component is connected correctly and in a working state by sequentially testing unit per unit. The Tool is not a replacement for human touch, but rather an additional layer of reliability that helps us standardise tests across terminals and their units. Simply put, the process is still owned and managed by technicians but guided and controlled by the software.

Core functionalities of System Test Tool

The Tool is based on NSoft’s customised Linux operating system. It contains three core functionalities:

Scanning the entire system and returning most vital information about system configuration, hardware and peripherals
Providing structured tests for each logical domain, including displays and touchscreens, printers, barcode, money devices, door switches and card readers
Generating and submitting done tests in the form of the final report that can be printed and signed as proof of testing.

The great thing about the tool is that it comes in the form of live media. That means we can run the software without affecting the disk content of the host device. Those circumstances make System Test Tool perfect for testing uninstalled and installed devices with no operative struggles beforehand or afterwards. Additionally, there are no limitations on who can perform testing or when. This means that it is even possible to release the tool for our clients in the near future as well. Each submitted test is stored in our database for future reference. At the same time, the uniqueness of each physical machine allows us to track the history of all done tests on a particular betting terminal.

Time saved is money earned.

In the year 2022, we are making this tool a part of the standard testing toolbox at Stark Solutions. Along with other NSoft initiatives, particularly in the domain of system diagnostics, it substantially reduces overall time requirements and testing complexity while improving reliability, standardisation, and transparency.

Sinergy of NSoft software solutions for SSBT and Stark’s neat and powerful machines for land-based betting and gaming business ones again has proven to be the winning combination for the clients.

In-demand slot provider adds yet another top tier brand to its growing list of operator partners in the US market

S Gaming, the provider of highly entertaining online slot and casino games, continues to build momentum in the US market having signed on the dotted line with tier one operator, Fanatics Casino.

Under the deal, Fanatics Casino will exclusively launch the studio’s hugely popular Triple 7 Jackpot slot to players in regulated iGaming states including New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan.

So what can players expect when they fire up the reels on Triple 7 Jackpot?

Triple 7 Jackpot is a classic slot dripping in neon action. The Triple 7 feature is always on screen but is locked until a spin lands three Bonus 7 symbols. This unlocks the feature with one spin awarded, giving players a shot at the 500x Jackpot prize.

Free Spins are also up for grabs with seven Free Games awarded when three Scatters land in the base game.

The deal with Fanatics Casino marks the next step in the studio’s ambitious plans for the US – a market where the sustainable entertainment and casual gameplay its slots provide is already proving to be a hit with players.

Charles Mott, CEO & Co-Founder at S Gaming, said: “Fanatics Casino needs no introduction and is one of the power player brands in the regulated US market.”

“We couldn’t be happier to see Triple 7 Jackpot land in its casino lobby and for players in states such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Michigan to take it for a spin for the first time.”

“We now have two top-tier operator partners in the US (Fanatics and BetMGM) and look forward to putting pen to paper on even more deals over the coming months.”

Kieron Shaw, Senior Manager, Fanatics Casino, added: “At Fanatics Casino, we are looking to build our portfolio of games to better enhance the player experience, and that’s why we continue to strike partnerships with pioneering studios like S Gaming.”

S Gaming brings something a little different to our portfolio thanks to its ethos around fun, while still delivering plenty of thrills and big win potential.”

February presents one of the strongest seasonal windows for affiliates working with Tier-1 sports traffic — and N1 Partners is expanding the opportunities even further.

The affiliate program has strengthened its sports offering by making betting available across three brands: the flagship N1 Bet, alongside RollXO and Lucky Hunter. This multi-brand setup allows partners to scale sports traffic strategically while leveraging casino brands with proven conversion performance.

Instead of relying on a single product, affiliates can now diversify traffic flows, stabilize KPIs, and combine sports, casino, and seasonal promotional mechanics for stronger long-term results.

Why February Is a Prime Month for Sports Traffic

Conversion stability often depends on timing. Campaigns aligned with seasonal peaks, major sporting events, and emotionally engaging dates consistently outperform generic traffic launches.

February stands out due to:

A packed schedule of top European football leagues and international tournaments
The Winter Olympic Games
Valentine’s Day seasonal campaigns
Increased emotional engagement and deposit intent

During high-profile events and holiday periods, users are more likely to deposit, participate in promotions, and return to the platform. The right contextual hook can directly influence conversion rate, average deposit size, and retention.

To help affiliates capitalize on this momentum, N1 Partners has prepared a focused list of key February sports events and active promotional mechanics.

Key Sports Events in February 2026

11 February

This density of premium events creates multiple testing angles for creatives, pre-landers, and geo-targeted funnels.

Valentine’s Day Promotions Across N1 Partners Brands

To enhance conversion rates during peak emotional engagement, N1 Partners is launching seasonal campaigns across key brands.

Valentine’s Advent Calendar (N1 Bet & RollXO)

Period: 13–17 February

Five days of engagement mechanics:

Cupid Mailbox Lottery (Lucky Hunter)

28 winners
Grand prizes include a trip to Paris
€6,400 + 1,400 Free Spins prize pool

These mechanics integrate smoothly into sports-driven funnels and allow affiliates to increase average deposit value and session frequency.

Why This Strategy Works for Tier-1 Affiliates

Seasonal and event-driven campaigns help partners:

Increase average deposit size
Improve LTV through repeat engagement
Offset typical mid-quarter CR slowdowns
Enhance emotional appeal through contextual offers
Diversify revenue streams across sports and casino

In competitive Tier-1 markets, product-driven campaigns and structured promotions help stabilize performance and make scaling more predictable.

What Affiliates Should Do Now

February combines major football clashes, Olympic hype, NBA spotlight events, and Valentine’s promotions into one high-conversion window.

Now is the time to:

Drive sports traffic to top European leagues and Olympic matchups
Integrate Valentine’s promotions into creatives
Split-test traffic between N1 Bet, RollXO, and Lucky Hunter
Use seasonal hooks to strengthen CTR and deposit intent

The N1 Partners team provides updated promotional materials, analytics support, and personalized optimization guidance tailored to traffic volumes.
