NSoft Global Expansion

Published

on

 

NSoft made international growth one of its investment priorities for 2019 and the global expansion plan is smoothly reaching its targets on the world’s largest markets.
The company’s presence has steadily increased in accordance with the action plan and now, besides the HQ in Mostar and Maglaj office, NSoft has offices in Croatia, SAR, Costa Rica, and Singapore.

NSoft’s CEO, Igor Krezic commenting on the company’s strategic plan says: ‘’ NSoft has begun building successful teams outside its comfort zone in its core region. This ambitious global expansion plan is fueled by the industry’s recognition and awards that are following NSoft’s product innovations. When you think about the betting industry opportunities globally, there’s a massive market out there, a huge number of businesses that you can potentially reach out to.”

The core betting markets are “not tapped, but they’re definitely a little more saturated,” said Krezic: ‘’The company added a new sales force in 2019 that will be in charge of the emerging markets as well. The entire NSoft’s business team has grown exponentially, even over 200%’’, he noted.

Such overseas business development could not be realized merely by the efforts from a single HQ point. The significant manpower had to be hired, the one that can interact with foreign customers, participate in overseas exhibitions and conferences, and even build reliable acquaintances for cultivating sales channels, with the managers themselves traveling overseas.

NSoft’s HQ team has created different internal procedures, tools, and regulatory adherence principles in order to support the teams in NSoft branch offices.

Krezic noted that: “NSoft’s sales playbook for international expansion in future years includes investing in localization, like translating the platform into local languages, offering regionally specific payment methods and letting operators offer products in multiple currencies, as well as market regulatory adherence. The company also hires in the target countries — particularly business development staff.’’

In order to share its know-how, NSoft has, for example, organized conferences and events in Bosnia and Herzegovina. NSoft Days were an excellent opportunity for the existing clients to get familiar with novelties and upgrades of the company’s product portfolio. Aligning sales and marketing forces has led to increased customer care and more sensitivity to customer expectations.

Two years ago, NSoft’s data provisioning requirements have grown tremendously thus the entire full-fledged NSoft Data Service team has been introduced to the everyday operations and is on the client’s disposal. Having a single source of truth in the global market is now mandatory. The NDS team is currently operating a Data warehouse (DWH) capable of nearly real-time processing and ingesting millions of data points per second which then feed into NSoft’s analytics layer.

One of the ways through which data analytics provides value is by improving the existing product portfolio wherever possible. By providing services of statistical analysis, testing product logic, identifying malicious player behavior as well as positive player feedback, the NDS team aims to implement their findings and insights into bettering each of NSoft’s products.

Commenting on NSoft’s next stage of growth Krezic says: “ We change entertainment, security and health with technology. With global internet growth, this NSoft strategy of the global-local approach has become a viable option. NSoft has a model that is working consistently finding ways to tap into growing trends and keeping its ownership position in the betting industry’s innovations.”

Flexion Reports Revenue Increase of 9% for 2024

Flexion, the games marketing company, has announced that its revenue grew 9% to year-end December 2024. The growth is attributed to the Company’s success in the alternative app store market.

Since its IPO in 2018, the company has built a well-positioned games marketing business around the alternative stores and grown annual revenue 50-fold to almost US$100 million. Its game portfolio represents several billion US$ in gaming IP for alternative market partners like Samsung, Amazon, Huawei, OneStore and Xiaomi.

“With the Digital Markets Act (DMA) coming into force in Europe and recent legal actions in the US, mobile game developers have felt a new-found freedom to explore their market options. We’ve already moved beyond the era when Google and Apple controlled everything. Developers are looking for alternatives that offer better margins, and additional audiences and revenue. Partnering with Flexion opens up a range of market channels with very little up-front investment,” said Jens Lauritzson, CEO of Flexion.

Flexion currently distributes more than 30 high-profile titles on the alternative stores. Top-tier games in the Flexion portfolio make on average US$ 10 million a year based on Q4 2024 run rate. That’s income in addition to their Google and Apple revenue with a business model that adds little to their costs.

In Q4 2024, Flexion-serviced games were, on average, generating 9.3% through the alternative stores of the revenue they made on Google Play. This is a significant boost for Flexion’s partners without major costs or effort.

“If you scale for the size of the stores, the alternatives massively out-performed Google in Q4 for our games. This is exciting both for Flexion’s business and for the future of the games industry as a whole. We’re seeing the beginning of a sea change in games marketing,” Jens said.

“We’re seeing just the beginnings of a major shift in how top-tier developers address their markets. Using Flexion to access alternative stores is an easy first step into the post- Google and Apple world. Many developers are already looking at their options beyond that and Flexion will be right there with them providing the technology and expertise they need to maximise the potential of their games,” Jens added.
