The results are in and BETER is proud to report that the first half of 2021 has seen the Setka Cup go from strength to strength, as the number of table tennis, tennis and beach volleyball matches featured in this tournament have doubled in this time.
Alex Lobov, BETER’s Chief Product Officer, explained how the company achieved such growth rates.

INCREASING GROWTH

The number of sports events reached 22,500 (from January to June) in 2020. This figure for the same period of 2021 has doubled and totaled 42,281 events. Despite the return of major sports tournaments, including the UEFA European football championship, in June 2021, BETER provided the highest number of matches of all Setka Cup’s sports tournaments — 7,500 games (250 per day).

Alex Lobov, BETER’s Chief Product Officer, said, “BETER continues increasing the amount of fast sports content. And we do our best to ensure that our clients get 24/7/365 available products that allow sportsbooks to fill free airtime and count on predictable margins. That’s why we offer a large number of events and broadcast up to 10 matches simultaneously. All of our players and matches have comprehensive stats.

We suppose that major events can boost fans’ and bettors’ interest in commercial sports tournaments. The Setka Cup is a good case in point. The platform held a significant number of events even during the EURO-2020 and other big sporting events in June.”

The Setka Cup opened two new table tennis arenas at the beginning of 2021. The last one started operating in Prague (Czech Republic) in May and holds up to 1,000 matches per month. This positive dynamic expands the sports community of tournaments, mainly in Ukraine, where we have 9 sports arenas in the 3 largest cities.

ATHLETES AND SPORTS ORGANIZATIONS

The total number of sportspeople participating in Setka Cup tournaments has increased by 20% since January 2021. There are 780 active players now, and 600 regularly participate in table tennis tournaments in Ukraine and the Czech Republic. Jindrich Pansky, the double silver medalist of the world championship and participant of the Olympic Games, competes in Setka Cup’s tournaments in Prague.
The Ukrainian Table Tennis Federation has 1,868 active players (18-55 years old). One in three registered athletes is a participant in Seka Cup’s tournaments.

2021 became an important year for the Setka Cup. The platform launched tournaments in the EU. Moreover, recently the Setka Cup reached a strategic partnership with the Prague Table Tennis Association. It is an official recognition on the international level, and it proves Setka Cup’s ambitions to develop table tennis in the EU. Within the Memorandum with the Association, the Setka Cup plans to conduct sports coaching, develop table tennis and promote it in Prague and the Czech Republic.

NEW SPORTS

BETER now provides table tennis, tennis, and beach volleyball tournaments organized by Setka Cup. Beach volleyball competitions were launched in June 2021. And today, the platform holds 16 matches of this discipline every day.

Alex Lobov explained, “We are constantly working to improve and expand our product portfolio. We have a great team of 50+ operational specialists who are responsible for launching new sports as well as providing technical equipment and supporting fair play.
This year 2×2 beach volleyball tournaments have successfully passed the trial period. During this process we verified all the key metrics, focused on technical aspects, and tested an ability to keep an efficient, 24/7 schedule and ranking systems. Beach volleyball proves its profitability and effectiveness”.

BETTORS AND FANS

BETER provides live streaming, live data and odds for the Setka Cup’s matches. The company, by doing so, creates complex betting products for sportsbooks in 150 countries. According to the last data of one of the largest sportsbooks, the number of bettors who choose Setka Cup tournaments increased by 33% during the first half of 2021. Such significant growth happened in June when the UEFA European football championship and table tennis championship were held.

SYNOT Group has installed its premium gaming systems, Firebird Red and Firebird Blue, in the most prestigious gaming venues in central Dublin. Specifically, the luxury casinos Amusement City and Playland, both icons of the gaming business in the Irish capital.

Six UP2-32 cabinets featuring the Firebird systems and the Mystery Jackpot have been installed at the premium Amusement City Casino, located in the famous Temple Bar district of Dublin.

“Our goal is to provide players with top-notch entertainment and a vibrant yet cosy atmosphere. Amusement City offers an experience reminiscent of Las Vegas, with hundreds of gaming machines from traditional reels to interactive video terminals,” said Antoinette Kennedy, owner of Amusement City, one of Ireland’s leading gaming clubs.

Not Just Data: A Record of RocketPlay Player Voices

Published

on

In iGaming, reports often highlight numbers — deposits, conversion rates, retention, and other performance indicators. But behind these figures lies another equally important story: how players experience fun, form habits, and integrate games into their daily lives. This article looks at that side of gaming, with RocketPlay’s recent community project offering an example.

This year, RocketPlay Casino launched a project to better understand how players approach online gaming and add fun to their daily life. The goal was to explore the perception of online gaming not through statistics alone, but by hearing directly from the community.

The starting point was a gap the team noticed in existing industry reports: while numbers and performance metrics are widely available, there was little data on how players themselves describe their habits and approaches to fun. To address this, RocketPlay prepared a survey and shared it with its community.

Within several weeks, approximately 1500 responses were collected. The input varied in form: some participants wrote just a few lines about how they like spending evenings playing, while others submitted long, structured notes of their gameplay experience — almost like personal guides.

Some respondents swore by the particular time of spinning during the day. Many tied their approach to personal rituals, favorite slots, or small traditions. No two answers were the same, and together they showed how many ways there are to approach fun through games.

“We were amazed by how open and thoughtful our community was,” says Alex Martin, PR Manager at RocketPlay. “The honesty and detail went far beyond what we expected, and we’re grateful for their openness. I believe this gave us an even deeper connection with our community, turning stories into insights we can measure.”

Each answer felt like a depiction of the modern gaming experience  — how different people add fun, mix it with luck, and turn play into enjoyment. Having such a wealth of insights, the team realized they had created something like a collective and warm memory of the fun time – dozens of tips, hundreds of personal stories, and countless small details were taken together.

At the start, RocketPlay did not intend to publish anything from the dialogue with players. But the team decided to keep these warm reflections for themselves and friends, so the answers were brought together in one collection — the RocketWisdom book.

At this stage, RocketPlay does not plan to make the book publicly available. Still, the team is considering different ways to keep the material connected to the community — perhaps through future collaborations or special projects. For now, the collection remains an exclusive record of how players themselves describe their play, leaving space for new formats and ideas ahead.

For RocketPlay, the key insight was clear: talk with your players — they сould bring inspiration behind every activity you launch. Ask questions, listen to their stories, and you’ll discover more than numbers can show. This dialogue became a record of how people enjoy gaming — their stories and habits will inspire future community projects. Because behind every device there is always a person.

For some, gaming is like a quiet morning coffee, a walk with their dog, or the joy of planting something new in the garden. For others, it’s a way to unwind after work, connect with friends across the world, or simply add a small spark of joy to the day. Data and numbers give the industry direction, but it’s emotions and everyday rituals that make it truly meaningful and alive.

This performance further demonstrates the scalability and reliability of BETBY’s sportsbook solution, which continues to attract new partners and drive growth across regulated markets. The supplier’s investment in proprietary trading models, AI-powered tools, and tailored partner support remains central to its strategy.
