The SoftSwiss Online Casino Platform provides a software solution focused on security and stability for its B2B clients and their players. The platform includes the latest payment methods, combined with gaming content from more than 130 game studios. Today, more than 100 casino brands are operating on the SoftSwiss Online Casino Platform, and the list keeps growing. In 2013 the Online Casino Platform became the first crypto-friendly software solution on the iGaming market.

The solution extended its presence by moving to markets such as South Korea, India and Japan in late 2020 and, more recently, Brazil and Nigeria earlier this year.

Andrey Akimov, Chief Operating Officer N1 Partners Group, comments on the win: “We cannot describe our joy after winning in the Player’s Choice category and being voted as the best online casino by our players in this year’s AskGamblers Awards. This also marks the very first win for us at AskGamblers Awards, so we’re incredibly happy to have partnered with SoftSwiss on Slot Hunter Casino and we are happy to partially share this win with them”.

He is most proud of the Commission’s commitment to combatant safety, exemplified by the adoption of the concussion protocol and testing, the passage of 581679, the Boxing/MMA Omnibus Bill, in 2024, and the adoption of rules for Boxing, MMA, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and Tough Man competitions. Last fall, the Arizona Boxing & MMA Commission was recognized as “Commission of the Year” at the North American Boxing Federation Awards Banquet for its regulatory efforts.

“It has been a pleasure to work alongside Commissioner Pennington over the last few years,” said Danny Vella, Executive Director of ADG’s Boxing and MMA Division. “I am grateful for his nearly two and a half decades of dedicated service and commitment to enhancing combat sports regulation in Arizona. I wish Mr. Pennington the best in his retirement and look forward to the continued impact of his tremendous contributions.”

“On behalf of the Arizona Department of Gaming, I want to extend our deepest gratitude to Commissioner Joe Pennington for his unwavering dedication and service to the Boxing & Mixed Martial Arts community in Arizona,” said Director Jackie Johnson, ADG. “Through multiple administrations, his commitment to integrity, fairness, and the growth of combat sports has left a lasting impact on the industry and the state. We thank him for his years of leadership and public service.”

Serving in his final commission meeting, Commissioner Pennington was presented a commendation from Executive Director Vella on behalf of Governor Katie Hobbs, receiving well wishes from several attendees of the Arizona Boxing and MMA Commission meeting on Wednesday, February 19, 2025, The Department and its staff wish Mr. Pennington a joyous and adventurous retirement, and we are forever grateful for his 24 years of service to combat sports safety and regulation in Arizona.
