NSoft provides top-notch gaming content to some of the world’s leading operators from its offices in Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, Nigeria, SAR, Costa Rica, and Singapore. The company’s product palette includes virtual games, sportsbook software, draw-based games, NSoft Vision – AI software, all laid on Seven – turnkey gaming management platform for retail betting shops, gaming terminals, web and mobile application channels.

NSoft’s retail long-term experience is certainly an important asset for LATAM markets due to the retail preferences of its players. The quality of NSoft’s virtual games portfolio will definitely satisfy the highest market demands while the complete Sportsbook product and long term cooperation with Sportradar are to guarantee for deep expertise of NSoft’s development team.

NSoft’s sister-company, it’s hardware division, Stark that has grown to be the first-shop-stop for operators looking for quality, customization, branding and superior product performance. Stark offers an end-to-end betting terminal solution that is at the same time even the most cost-effective. The company combines best-in-class technology with human technical expertise to deliver a fully customizable SSBT.

LATAM’s new horizons
LATAM’s historic evolution in this industry is quite unique and fascinating and even though it has proven that it is here to stay, the development phase lasted more than other markets. For almost 25 years the borders of the gaming industry have been slowly opening from Rio Bravo all the way down to the Patagonian soil.

After years of wandering over the strategy of establishing a regulatory framework in Latin America, things have changed over the past year. All this is accompanied by changes in gambling legislation in the two most important Latin American countries, Brazil and Argentina.

In December 2018, the regulator made it possible in Brazil to legalize online fixed odds betting and to obtain licenses. On the other hand, a new law was also adopted in Argentina in December 2018 for the Buenos Aires region, where it became possible to obtain licenses in a manner similar to that in the European Union.

In other Latin American jurisdictions, a similar trend is also observed. For example, a regulatory framework has been put in place in Colombia and Peru, thus it should not be surprising to see the largest European betting operators bring their business to these countries.

However, it should be borne in mind that Latin America’s business opportunities depend on laws that will certainly not be identical in all countries. Non-harmonized solutions may offer more favorable conditions in some countries than others. For example, the political situation in Mexico.

Hunch says its World Cup free-to-play game suite delivered 78% “round-on-round” retention across active match days for Super Technologies’ Brazil-facing operation, following the launch of its “Passa A Bola” product in the market.

The supplier said performance was driven by “Pass the Ball”, localised as “Passa A Bola”, a collaborative game designed to encourage same-game accumulator participation by letting friends build bets together. The campaign in Brazil was promoted on TV under Super’s regional brand and supported by ambassadors including Cafu and Zinho. Hunch said Super distributed more than €4m in prizes to customers over the World Cup period.

“We aimed, as we always do, to give our customers reasons to continue to be Super with us. Hunch delivered, as we knew they would, creating differentiated experiences that helped new users experience the depth of our sports product, and critically, enjoy that experience with friends.”

Hunch also rolled out a football-themed Bingo title ahead of the tournament’s first kick-off. The company said the Bingo game engaged over 85% of active Super sports bettors during the World Cup, using a nine-event sheet of same-game accumulator or bet builder selections, with rewards linked to the number of completed lines.

Hunch operates across six regulated jurisdictions—Romania, Brazil, Poland, Belgium, Serbia, and Greece—within the Super ecosystem, offering four free-to-play formats: Bingo, Pass the Ball, Predictor, and Hotstreak. Managing Director Rob Egan said: “Major tournaments are unique in that bettors lean heavily towards entertainment that enhances the primary viewing experiences. We saw this engagement gap in our World Cup planning, and by delivering products like Passa A Bola, we have directly targeted the cross-section of social interaction and same-game multi demand.”

Hunch, the free-to-play games unit within the Super Technologies (Super) ecosystem, said on July 21, 2026 that its World Cup game suite delivered “unprecedented” matchday engagement and retention performance for Super’s Brazil-facing offering.

The company said performance was driven by the debut of “Pass the Ball,” localized as “Passa A Bola” for Brazil, a collaborative game designed to encourage same-game accumulator activity by allowing friends to build bets together and follow results as a group. Super marketed the product on TV in Brazil with ambassadors including Cafu and Zinho, according to the release.

Hunch said Super’s free-to-play network retention—defined as players returning “round-on-round”—reached 78% across active match days during the tournament period, with more than €4m in prizes distributed to Super customers over the World Cup.

“Brazil is one of the most competitive and dynamic markets in our sector right now, and we know we need to deliver unforgettable experiences to our customers at the biggest moment of the year: the World Cup,” said Mark Flood, General Manager of Brazil at Super Technologies. “We aimed, as we always do, to give our customers reasons to continue to be Super with us. Hunch delivered, as we knew they would, creating differentiated experiences that helped new users experience the depth of our sports product, and critically, enjoy that experience with friends.”

Hunch also said its Bingo title engaged over 85% of active Super sports bettors during the World Cup, with players using a nine-event same-game accumulator or bet builder sheet and earning rewards based on lines hit. The supplier said it currently operates across six regulated jurisdictions—Romania, Brazil, Poland, Belgium, Serbia, and Greece—under the Super umbrella, offering Bingo, Pass the Ball, Predictor, and Hotstreak, with product performance supported by direct integration and access to first-party player data.
