SOFTSWISS conducted a large-scale survey in which it assessed customer satisfaction. The survey was conducted by the marketing research leader Kantar Ukraine on behalf of SOFTSWISS. The results show that one of SOFTSWISS’ key differentiators is top-level customer service, which distinguishes the company on the market among competitors.

The survey was conducted from August until September 2021. Its main objectives were to discover which key features and product characteristics are of crucial importance to clients, understand their expectations and measure their satisfaction with SOFTSWISS and its competitors’ products and services.

Among the most important characteristics when choosing a company to cooperate with, respondents pointed out (on a scale of 1-10, where 1 is least important and 10 is most important):

Prompt response and quick problem resolution (9.2)
Help in making money (8.9)
Simple and quick communication with managers (8.8)
Top-level service (8.8)
Opportunity to run a successful and profitable business (8.7)

All these characteristics are in line with SOFTSWISS brand positioning to be a reliable supplier of iGaming solutions and to offer clients not only expertise and innovation but also top-level customer service.

Among the least important characteristics when choosing a partner, respondents mentioned: “the development of the entertainment and gambling industry” (7.6), the “leading iGaming provider” status (7.4) and the opportunity to get “a positive effect on their image from cooperation” (6.8).

Based on the survey, customers still rely on feedback received via ‘word of mouth’ when making the decision to partner with SOFTSWISS. However, social media, blogs and newsletters are gaining ground among the top sources of information from which clients discover software suppliers and their advantages and disadvantages.

Among competitors, SOFTSWISS leads the way on the following characteristics:

SOFTSWISS is considered a long-term partner
The company ensures easy and fast communication via account managers
SOFTSWISS shares information related to iGaming with clients
Provides the opportunity to run a successful and profitable business
Offers services and products that meet client needs
SOFTSWISS employees demonstrate a high level of professionalism and expertise during communication

Statistically, our competitors are significantly inferior to SOFTSWISS based on the following characteristics: “opportunity to conduct profitable business”, “high professionalism and expertise” and “maximum involvement of the company representative in solving client problems”.

Among the features most valued by customers when choosing an online casino platform in the top 5 are:

Support for various payment systems (9.4)
Financial reporting (9.0)
Bonus settings flexibility (8.8)
Payment systems management (8.7)
Variety of gaming providers (8.6)

Compared to competitors, the SOFTSWISS Online Casino Platform wins by offering more gaming content studios, in-depth financial reporting and gaming licences. In addition, the company was highly rated in terms of customer service. On average, this score is 1.3 points higher than competitors received. This is further supported by the awards SOFTSWISS received this year in the nominations for Best Customer Service Company of the Year at the International Gaming Awards (IGA) and Best Customer Service of the Year at the Starlet Awards.

Summing up, the main reasons for choosing SOFTSWISS were smooth communication and support from account managers, a wide range of complementary products and services, as well as short response times to client enquiries and the inclusion of a gaming licence. Also among the SOFTSWISS advantages cited by survey results is the support for cryptocurrencies and a broad geographical market coverage.

“The secret to the success of any business or brand is understanding the needs and insights of its target audience. While planning this research, our primary objective was to find out the most relevant characteristics of products and services that influence client choice and loyalty. We also wanted to assess growth and improvement opportunities for SOFTSWISS. We are, surely, pleased with the results and the valuable insights gained. It is encouraging to see that our positioning is in line with the needs and expectations of our clients. But what’s even more important is that the survey results confirmed the high marks we have received in nominations at recent awards,” said Valentina Bagniya, Chief Marketing Officer at SOFTSWISS.

Faker said: “Competition has shaped my life, and I am proud to join the Esports Foundation as Game Ambassador.

There is still much more to achieve.”

EF highlighted Faker’s competitive record, describing him as a six-time League of Legends World Champion, EWC 2024 winner, two-time MSI champion and ten-time domestic champion with T1. The Foundation also said Faker became the first esports athlete to receive the Blue Dragon Medal in 2026, describing it as the Republic of Korea’s highest sporting honor awarded by President Lee Jae-myung.

Midnite has agreed a partnership with Middlesbrough FC that will see the UK bookmaker become the club’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026/27 campaign, which Middlesbrough describes as its landmark 150th season.

The companies announced the deal alongside a fan activation at Riverside Stadium on Thursday, July 9, branded “This Season’s On Us”. The initiative offered supporters prizes including 2026/27 season tickets, 2026/27 shirts, match tickets, or a £25 club shop voucher, with fans required to answer Middlesbrough trivia and complete a football challenge.

Middlesbrough former players Craig Hignett and David Wheater attended the event, and, according to the company, took bonus attempts on behalf of participants who missed out.

Andrew Mook, Midnite’s Head of Brand Marketing, said:

“Middlesbrough have a storied history and we’re delighted to announce this partnership during such a monumental year with the club celebrating their 150th anniversary.

“It was great to see so many Middlesbrough fans at the “This Season’s On Us” activation, we hope they enjoyed taking part and meeting club legends, with David Wheater hitting top bins on several occasions and allowing fans to win big with season tickets.

“We can’t wait to get to Riverside Stadium in August to kick-off a new season and we’re excited to say that we have plenty of new and captivating campaigns planned.”

Lee Fryett, Middlesbrough FC Chief Commercial Officer, added:

“We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our new Principal Partner.

“We’re looking forward to working closely with Midnite to develop engaging campaigns, content and unique experiences that bring our fans even closer to the club.

“We’re confident this partnership will provide real value for our supporters while supporting our ambitions both on and off the pitch.”

ThrillTech has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to launch in Ontario’s regulated market.

The licence allows ThrillTech to deploy its opt-in side bet jackpots technology with regulated online casino, sports betting and lottery operators across the province.

Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets. This latest certification is testament to our robust technology and trusted compliance frameworks, allowing us to continue our global growth trajectory. We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”

The company said its “ThrillPots” mechanics sit as an independent, player-funded side bet and do not alter the underlying game’s return-to-player mathematics.

ThrillTech said the Ontario approval enables its existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to launch its side bet jackpots locally, while it also holds talks with potential new operator partners. The company lists its regulated footprint as including the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil and Peru.
