A year of research, development, and growth: Slotegrator’s 2023 recap
2023 was a great and productive year for Slotegrator, one full of reflection and solid research. Now it’s time to look at what goals were fulfilled and what new goals Slotegrator should set.
For Slotegrator, 2023 was a year of thorough research, deep insights, rethinking, and qualitative growth. During the year, the Slotegrator team visited key countries in its main markets (Europe, LatAm, Asia, Africa), learned all the new trends, and became convinced that it had chosen the right path and way of development.
The Slotegrator team visited many iGaming events in 2023. Among them were SiGMA Asia in the Philippines, ASEAN Gaming Summit Philippines, GAT Expo Colombia, Spice India, SAGSE Latam, Casino Beats Summit, Belgrade Future Gaming, Central European Gambling Summit 2023 (CEGS23), Romania, and SBC Summit Tbilisi. We also presented with a stand at several expos, including SiGMA Malta, SBC Summit Barcelona, SiGMA Cyprus, iGB LiVE Amsterdam, SiGMA Brazilian iGaming Summit, SiGMA Eurasia in Dubai, ICE London, and SiGMA Africa in Kenya.
Ayvar Gabidullin, business development manager at Slotegrator, comments: “Expanding into key markets around the world is crucial for international gambling providers like Slotegrator, and we keep searching for new opportunities to contribute to our clients’ growth.”
A quick look back at the most noteworthy events of the year:
- 2023 was very eventful in terms of gambling market regulations. Slotegrator stayed on top of every little detail that could potentially be important for the company’s clients. This year Slotegrator created and presented an interactive map with the most relevant information about the gambling laws. The map is constantly updated.
- Cutting-edge, in-demand technologies were implemented in the company’s products and solutions. For example, the turnkey platform was updated with new modules and features for smoother and more optimized online casino and sportsbook management: the Casino Builder module for easy alterations of website UX, the KYC module for more efficient AI-driven player verification in compliance with regulatory requirements, the Anti-fraud module to identify suspicious behavior, the Artificial BI module for quick and effective analysis of platform metrics, the Bonus module for a quick adjustment of bonus campaigns, and other features like Progress bar, a Wheel of Fortune, and integration of ChatGPT.
- The company also reaffirmed its status as one of the pioneers of the Telegram Casino solution — this product is only becoming more and more popular due the growing popularity of portable gambling and the messaging app itself.
- Among other important trends in the iGaming industry is a focus on regulatory compliance and responsible gambling. The Slotegrator team has noticed a growing interest in ESG in the industry. Paying attention to this issue is a sign that the industry realizes the importance of safe and responsible gambling, and that it begins with leading companies like Slotegrator.
- The Slotegrator team constantly collects and updates information about new technologies, game types, payment methods, and player behavior. In an industry that evolves as fast as iGaming, relevant, up-to-date knowledge is essential — which is why the company produces so much informative material in Slotegrator Academy. In December 2023, Slotegrator released a detailed report about modern players. You can download it here, and watch a video overview at Slotegrator Academy.

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
