NSoft business overview – 2021 summer edition
Doing Business in Q2 2021
The exceptional first quarter of the year is followed by the equally promising Q2
Lucky Six, Greyhound Races and Roulette are still the most popular games
The casino team is announcing hot autumn in terms of new releases
By Dražan Planinić, NSoft COO
The event that all sports fans have been patiently waiting for started a few days ago and here in NSoft we walk the talk when it comes to the Olympic Games motto. Now, we are offering even Faster games with our Lightning games portfolio including Lightning Lucky Six, Lightning Roulette, Kolor and Slingshot. We go Higher with new customers in Q2 and finally, our teams are growing Stronger with every new employee.
In that spirit, we have continued with the business growth in Q2 2021. NSoft has its footprint in four new countries, and the client base grew by 23 new betting operators – mainly operating through online channels.
Exceptional Q1 2021 is followed by the equally strong second quarter
The first quarter of the year in NSoft was exceptional. Every aspect of our business was in full swing. The quarterly result reassured us that the path we took for 2021 is the right one as the growth continues in Q2 2021 across channels.
Keno is a single game with the most impressive growth in the number of tickets in Q2 2021. The ticket number grew by 58%, mainly thanks to the several new LATAM customers and one African betting operator that has extended its business with NSoft from brick-and-mortar to web channel.
Shortlisted for the Global Gaming Award and EGR B2B 2021 Speaking of great products and business solutions from NSoft, we are proud to say that NSoft has been shortlisted for the prestigious Global Gaming Awards in the category Product Launch of the Year. The nomination has come for the game Virtual Penalty Shootout – a marvellous virtual game created in-house by NSoft’s 3D animation team and game development.
Another validation of our work has come in the form of an impressive nine nominations for the EGR B2B Awards. NSoft’s achievements have been recognized in the following categories: Sportsbook platform supplier, Virtual sports supplier, Sports betting supplier, Multi-channel supplier, Lottery supplier, In-play betting software, Innovation in sports betting software, Bingo Supplier and Best customer service.
Lucky Six, Greyhound Races and Roulette – the most played games
The most popular NSoft’s betting game is Lucky Six, our evergreen, with Greyhound Races as a runner-up and Roulette in third place. As for Roulette, the game was released on terminals for the Romanian operator Superbet in Q2 2021.
In the previous quarter, we released two Lightning games: Lightning Roulette and Lightning Lucky Six. For now, the trends are promising and the African operator Sima Communication is a good example. In less than a month, players’ engagement positioned the games in third place on this operator’s web.
New games from our game development team
NSoft offers games that are designed for users’ delight with innovative design, stability in the backend, engaging graphics, user-friendly interfaces and intuitive navigation. In Q2 2021, the game development unit continued to work on new games focusing on online delivery channels and casino content. As a result, we released two new games at the beginning of July: Kolor and Slingshot 6 – both super-fast and straightforward to play.
Kolor, as its name suggests, is all about betting on colours. A classic wheel is divided into 32 fields coloured with four different shades: purple, blue, red and yellow. The number of coloured fields deferred so does the odds.
Emphasis on casino games
Slingshot 6 is a casino game version of our most popular game Lucky Six, with 35 out of 48 numbers randomly generated in a single spin for every player separately. There are several betting options for the players, and talking about speed, the duration of the spin in turbo mode of the game is just four seconds. You should try it yourself.
We continue to enrich our game portfolio with new exciting content. NSoft offers a great variety of games in the casino segment for our customers via third-party integration, thanks to partnerships with some of the best casino aggregators. Nevertheless, the NSoft development team diligently works on new casino content, and we are looking forward to presenting it in the following period.
By the third quarter-end, NSoft will offer a completely new in-house built Casino slot portfolio.
New modules within Seven Sportsbook platform
Seven Sportsbook platform team has announced three new features. The first one is a new CRM, and it will be Optimove’s solution integrated into our platform. Optimove is a well-known name in the industry when it comes to CRM and relationship marketing solutions for the gaming and betting niches. Their Client Relationship Management (CRM) module will help our clients scale the data and understand and expand their business even more.
The second novelty is the upcoming integration of the Xtremepush module for the online channel, emphasising mobile apps. Push notifications are a handy communication platform. Betting operators can benefit from it on multiple levels, including reaching new customers, onboarding, and delivering highly engaging content.
In parallel to this, the team is upgrading the Live betting user interface for the terminals.
Stark betting terminals – going strong in new markets
Stark’s premium betting terminals found their way to two new markets, with one of them being Turkey via strategic partnership with
DOKA BILISIM. Turkey is not just the new market for Stark, but for betting terminals in general. We are thrilled to be the first one ever to enter this market with excellent growth potential.
Talking in numbers, NSoft’s hardware unit Stark has shipped 25% more terminals in Q2 2021 compared to the previous quarter. Further expansion of the production capacity required a new workforce, so Q2 2021 ended with 50% more employees. This period was also marked by the modernisation of the production line, which doubled the production capacity.
Vision improved with new multitenancy VMS (video management system)
Constant upgrades of NSoft Vision software has led to the multitenancy video management system. We have grown to the point where we need a unique platform through which we will scale down a large number of clients, members (users) and their permissions as well as individual locations and cameras.
Additionally, the team has been working on a Vision help centre to provide a single point of contact for customers, knowledge lake and customer self-service.
Every business is a people’s business.
As we are growing financially and increasing our market share, we also nurture and straighten our most valuable resource – employees! In Q2 2021, besides reinforcement in the Stark division, 19 new colleagues joined the NSoft team, exclusively in tech-related positions. As the summer is a slow period in general, most companies exploit this short brief to focus on education. We are not an exception. In June, we opened an internship application process to select eight new prospects who now got the opportunity to work in NSoft for two months. The NSoft Summership programme was successfully rolled out at the beginning of July, and we are happy to have young, motivated and talented candidates as our colleagues this summer.

Zingo Bingo pushes “community, accessibility” message for National Bingo Week
Brand manager Jack Watson argues bingo’s growth should focus on social play and cultural moments, as the operator plans a free-to-play day on 27 June.
Zingo Bingo is using National Bingo Week to argue that bingo’s next phase should prioritise “community, accessibility and shared cultural experiences” over “innovation for innovation’s sake,” according to Jack Watson, Brand Manager at Zingo Bingo.
In the statement, Watson says technology is reshaping gaming, but that bingo’s core appeal remains social interaction and shared entertainment. He points to sector shifts including mobile-first experiences, personalised content and themed gameplay, while claiming players still want “the shared excitement that comes from participating alongside others.”
Watson also flags nostalgia as a product and marketing lever, describing it as an “instant emotional connection” that can help online bingo feel “both fresh and recognisable.” He adds that operators should focus on presentation—such as “mobile optimisation, themed rooms, contemporary branding and strong community experiences”—rather than changing the fundamentals of the game.
Zingo Bingo said it will mark National Bingo Day with “a full day of free bingo, running from 12pm to 8pm on Saturday 27 June,” allowing players to participate without purchasing tickets. Watson positions free-to-play events as a way to reduce friction for first-time players who may hold outdated views of online bingo.
The company also highlights responsible gambling measures, stating it offers tools including deposit limits, session reminders and self-exclusion.

Boomerang Partners’ case study: how affiliates prepare traffic campaigns around major sports events
On June 11, the FIFA World Cup 2026 starts in North America. It will be the biggest sports event of the year, but the real challenge for affiliates is the rest of the schedule. Throughout 2026, dozens of major tournaments – from football and tennis to Formula 1 – are running almost back-to-back across the sports calendar. This creates one of the most overloaded sports calendars affiliates have worked with in recent years.
Periods like these usually bring some of the highest traffic volumes and strongest audience engagement of the year for affiliate teams.
But data from Boomerang Partners shows that old tactics no longer work. You cannot just launch a campaign on match day and expect good results. Today, teams have to plan their traffic and content weeks before the first game begins.
Regular leagues create more stable traffic
The pressure of this busy schedule became clear during the recent TIME TO WIN affiliate tournament, organized by Boomerang Partners. The project became a live test for different traffic strategies during major events.
The tournament highlighted one clear pattern. Teams like Fumma LTD pointed to the UEFA Champions League and the English Premier League as some of the most reliable traffic drivers. This approach gives affiliates several advantages:
- Fixed schedules make it easier to prepare content and distribute traffic across several tournament stages.
- Recurring match cycles help teams plan campaign timing and prioritize key fixtures well before kick-off.
The real problem in sports is overlapping events. Several big tournaments now run simultaneously across different regions and time zones.
For sports-focused affiliates, this means competing for the same audience attention at the same time. In many cases, the audiences overlap as well. If two major match cycles collide, teams have to choose quickly where to push traffic. Otherwise, they will lose their visibility entirely.
Campaigns must start before kick-off
The timeline for traffic preparation has completely changed. Affiliate teams increasingly start campaign preparation long before the opening match. By the time the live event starts, much of the preparation work is already done.
Preparation now involves several steps. Content teams need to prepare match materials in advance, and media buyers must schedule traffic around the most important fixtures and play-offs.
During the live match, there is no time to fix mistakes. Audiences move too fast between different games. This is especially true when several big matches happen on the same day. If a campaign fails at kick-off, fixing it on the fly is almost impossible.
This is why arbitrage remains one of the strongest sources for sports campaigns. As Sanan Kamilli, CBO at Fumma LTD, noted during TIME TO WIN: “Google PPC works best for sports-focused campaigns because it captures high-intent users actively searching for event-related queries, allowing precise targeting, scalable volume, and strong conversion rates compared to other channels.”
Users searching for specific matches, teams, or betting odds usually show much stronger intent than broader tournament audiences. This makes search traffic particularly valuable during major sports events.
Sports traffic extends beyond the final match
Many affiliates think that sports traffic disappears once the final whistle blows. This is a mistake.
As Fumma LTD noted during TIME TO WIN, sports-driven audiences typically remain valuable for several weeks after the event. The company continues working with these users through retargeting, promoting upcoming matches, and using CRM campaigns to drive repeat engagement and increase lifetime value.
Fumma LTD also highlighted conversion rate (CR), earnings per click (EPC), and player lifetime value (LTV) as some of the key metrics for evaluating traffic quality and long-term profitability in sports-focused campaigns.
For affiliate teams, this creates opportunities beyond a single tournament window. Large finals still generate the biggest traffic peaks, but audience activity often continues into the following match cycles as well.
Using the 2026 Calendar to manage niche traffic
With so many tournaments running back-to-back in 2026, the main difficulty is managing multiple campaigns at once. Content creation, publishing, and ad buying must happen simultaneously.
To help with this, Boomerang Partners launched the Sports Marketing & Betting Calendar 2026. This tool gathers major leagues, global tournaments, and niche events in one place.
For teams like Paradise Media, this centralized schedule solved a major workflow problem. As the company noted during TIME TO WIN, football still accounts for more than 80% of online sports betting activity, so having all World Cup match days, groups, and teams in one place helps speed up research and campaign preparation. To make their workflow faster, the team also combines the calendar with different AI and LLM tools to gather information and cross-check with the calendar to enrich their content, said Mehdi, Director of Affiliates at Paradise Media.
Niche sports also play an important role during quieter periods between major football tournaments. They may not generate the same traffic volume as top leagues, but they help affiliates maintain publishing activity and keep audiences engaged throughout the year.
For many teams, this is no longer just about traffic volume. Covering niche events also helps build authority and positions affiliate platforms as more consistent sports sources outside the biggest football peaks.
A structured calendar always beats reaction
The main takeaway from the market is simple: sports marketing is no longer about quick reactions. 2026 requires good coordination, pre-made content, and smart scheduling across overlapping tournament cycles.
The strongest affiliate teams are already moving toward structured, calendar-based strategies where preparation starts weeks before kick-off and continues well beyond the final match.
