The capacity and experience of the management team, together with the talent of the directors who accompany me, make me very optimistic about the new phase that the company is starting”.

Soft2Bet has launched Swiper, Sweden’s first online casino built around the swipe-driven navigation popularised by social media apps. Specifically designed for mobile users, Swiper enables players to effortlessly discover, select, and play games using just their thumb. Operating under a licence from the Swedish Gambling Authority, Swiper offers players a secure, responsible, and fully compliant gaming environment.

Soft2Bet, a leading turnkey provider of highly localised and engagement-driven iGaming solutions, has introduced Swiper, a new brand explicitly developed with Swedish players in mind. Many elements of Swiper have been carefully localised, including onboarding, payment methods, and game certification, to ensure they resonate fully with Swedish preferences and comply seamlessly with Spelinspektionen standards. By integrating BankID verification and instant transactions via Swish, players can quickly register, deposit, and withdraw, while remaining securely connected to Spelpaus, Sweden’s national self-exclusion system.

At the heart of Swiper is a personalised, endless feed of short-form video clips highlighting new releases, jackpots, and live-dealer action, similar to browsing stories on TikTok. Every swipe is enhanced by Soft2Bet’s proprietary MEGA (Motivational Engineering Gaming Application) engine, which delivers tailored missions, quests, and rewards designed to increase player engagement, session duration, and lifetime value.

This launch builds on Soft2Bet’s proven success with localised brands, such as Betinia and CampoBet, and its recent partnerships, which have created dedicated local divisions and leagues. With Swiper, Soft2Bet takes localisation even further by introducing SEK wallets, dedicated Swedish-speaking dealers, and fully customised mobile apps, demonstrating a clear commitment to adapting each brand to local culture, regulatory standards, and player preferences.

Yoel Zuckerberg, Chief Product Officer at Soft2Bet, commented: “A great customer experience starts with cultural relevance. Swiper looks, feels and functions exactly like a Swedish app, because we’ve intentionally built it around Swedish user habits, from BankID logins and Swish payments to RNG certifications aligned with existing standards. Players can expect endless social-style content that feels completely authentic to their local experience.”

Swiper introduces several key features tailored specifically to Swedish players:

  • One-handed swipe navigation for rapid game discovery
  • Over 85,000 live and 70,000 pre-match sports betting events covering diverse sports markets with competitive odds
  • Localised promotions tied directly to Swedish events and holidays
  • The design is adapted to local player preferences and cultural context

In 2025, Soft2Bet successfully launched multiple brands and deployed several innovative MEGA engines across Europe, significantly redefining the local player experience. The Swiper launch further demonstrates Soft2Bet’s capability in converting its advanced B2B technology into engaging, highly localised, market-leading B2C products across 11 regulated markets.

In a landmark announcement set to reshape the future of entertainment, content, and technology, Proper Loud – the powerhouse team that has carved the path to success and helped bring to life ventures including Prime (Hydration & Energy), Misfits Boxing, The Baller League, and Lunchly – has entered into a global partnership with innovative prediction market platform Galactic.
Predictor.io marks the pioneering socially-driven prediction market platform, fusing real-time audience engagement with gamified, predictive experiences – powered by some of the world’s biggest digital creators and content brands.
Galactic, already well-established through key partnerships with media giants such as Sports Illustrated, has further bolstered its U.S. presence by advancing partnerships and discussions with both a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM) and a Designated Contract Market (DCM). These alliances are intended to strengthen Galactic’s regulatory and compliance path across North America, reinforcing its commitment to operating within the highest industry standards pending formal registration and approvals.
This bold new platform will allow fans to engage with creator-driven content like never before – predicting outcomes, competing in live challenges, and becoming active participants in sports, entertainment, and trending culture. Backed by cutting-edge tech, ongoing regulatory preparations, and unmatched creator influence, the venture is poised to redefine how the next generation interacts with content.
Mams Taylor, Founder of Proper Loud, shared: “This is a truly unique partnership bringing together the biggest content creators on the planet and world-class prediction market technology. We’re building something completely new – a platform where fans aren’t just watching, they’re participating in the outcome.”
Stuart Stott, CEO of Galactic, added: “This marks an industry first of its kind – bringing socially-driven content and the world’s biggest creators into one of the fastest-growing markets on Earth. The prediction market and creator economy are experiencing significant growth and, by combining these two forces, we can transform how audiences interact and engage with content. By empowering creators with new monetisation opportunities and providing fans with real-time, interactive experiences, we’re not just predicting the future – we’re helping shape it, making the future of content more engaging, inclusive and rewarding for everyone.”
By blending entertainment, prediction, and social influence, this joint platform is set to be a game-changer across sports, music, lifestyle and creator economies. The launch is expected to roll out in phases starting later this year, subject to regulatory clearances, with exclusive creator-led campaigns and real-time fan activations.
