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.

Vibrant Neon Marking System Enhances the Play Experience for Popular Crossword and Bingo Games 

Scientific Games has created an all-new fluorescent marking system for lottery extended play scratch games such as crossword and bingo, adding a vibrant neon glow to the play experience. Recognizing the expanding popularity of extended play games, which have seen significant growth in recent years, the company’s metro Atlanta-based scratch game designers, game programmers, chemists and production experts developed GlowMark to give players a bright fluorescent surprise when they scratch the game. The innovation is available to U.S. and international lotteries.

Scientific Games, the world’s largest creator, producer and manager of lottery games, offers more than 100 strategic product enhancements for its world-leading lottery instant products. The new GlowMark marking system reveals a contrasting neon fluorescent color when the player scratches the play area, a vibrant departure from the typical white reveal area found in most games.

SG Analytics indicate extended play lottery games have grown by 32% in the past five years (2019-2024). Today, they represent 18.3% of U.S. lottery retail sales. What was once a niche product is now offered by 44 U.S. lotteries, with retail sales topping $11.5 billion last year.

Scratch games featuring fluorescent inks also grew in popularity, representing more than 12% of games in the market by fiscal year 2025. Additionally, $10 scratch games with fluorescent inks outperformed other $10 games by nearly 9% in fiscal year 2025.

“Our Innovation and Discovery teams developed this innovation by using fluorescents to enhance the scratch game experience and are now thrilled to debut GlowMark, our newest advancement in extended play marking systems,” said Danielle Hodges, Senior Director, Global Product Innovation & Development for Scientific Games. GlowMark gives games a strong, visually appealing contrast between the marked and unmarked areas of the game, adding excitement with glowing neon colors.”

Extended play scratch games produced at Scientific Games’ metro Atlanta global headquarters, as well as production facilities in Canada and the UK, can feature GlowMark. The company’s products represent 70% of lottery instant game global retail sales.

Innovating products and solutions that move the global lottery industry forward since 1973, Scientific Games provides retail and digital games, technology, analytics and services to 150 lotteries in 50 countries worldwide.

How CommsHub Built-In Failover Protects High-Volume Messaging Businesses

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

In today’s connected world, a single missed message can have a ripple effect far beyond its intended recipient. For high-volume messaging businesses, from fintech to e-commerce, reliability isn’t just a feature; it’s the foundation.

At CommsHub, we’ve seen how even the most robust communication strategies can fall apart when traffic isn’t managed intelligently. That’s why built-in failover isn’t an add-on for us,  it’s at the very core of our platform architecture.

The Hidden Risk in Messaging at Scale

Sending a million messages is easy. Delivering a million messages on time without losses, delays, or duplicates is the real challenge.

Traditional messaging setups often rely on a primary route, with a manual backup plan in case of outages. The problem? Manual intervention takes time and every second loss increases the risk of failed conversions, missed verifications and frustrated customers.

For some sectors, a five-minute delay can mean thousands in lost revenue. For others, it can damage trust irreparably.

How Our Failover Works

CommsHub’s built-in failover system works like an automated traffic director.

  • Real-Time Route Monitoring: Every active channel is monitored for delivery speed, message status and error rates.
  • Instant Automatic Switching: If performance drops below a set threshold  or a provider experiences downtime  traffic is instantly redirected to the next best available route.
  • Multi-Level Redundancy: We don’t just fail over once. Traffic can cascade through multiple backup routes until successful delivery is confirmed.

This means campaigns keep running without interruption, even when unexpected technical issues occur in the background.

The Numbers Behind It

In controlled environments, we’ve observed that our failover logic reduces message loss to near zero. While previously around 17% of messages were considered as lost or undelivered – while in reality, fallback mechanism saves them.

The architecture also ensures that when switching routes, there’s no spike in costs  thanks to our intelligent routing engine, which considers provider pricing in real time.

Protecting Revenue and Reputation

The immediate benefit is obvious: you don’t lose communication with your audience. But the deeper value lies in protecting both revenue and reputation.

For high-volume businesses, the stakes are high:

A trading platform missing two-factor authentication codes risks losing active traders.

An e-commerce brand failing to deliver time-sensitive promotions risks wasted ad spend.

A fintech company delaying fraud alerts risks customer churn.

CommsHub’s failover was designed to address these risks without requiring extra integration work or manual monitoring.

Engineering for the Future of Messaging

We see failover not as a safety net, but as a structural pillar of next-generation communication platforms. As channels diversify and volumes grow, redundancy and intelligent routing will be as essential as delivery speed and analytics.

This is why we’ve invested heavily in creating an architecture that can evolve with market needs  from adding new providers in days instead of weeks, to scaling traffic instantly during spikes.

The result? Businesses that can move faster, sleep easier and deliver messages with confidence.

In messaging, there’s no such thing as “just a delay.”
Every second counts  and with built-in failover, those seconds are always on your side.
