SOFTSWISS Sportsbook: 2021 Recap

The SOFTSWISS Sportsbook is pleased to share insights and results of the past year. The online sports betting platform was launched by SOFTSWISS at the end of 2020 and has gained traction in its first year of operating performance.
According to the Sportsbook statistics, men are the top users of the platform. Men account for 97% of the sum of all bets, while women only account for 3%. The situation is similar with the number of bets made, or Bet Count. In 2021 men made 94% of of all bets recorded in the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, while women only made around 6%.
“Our product confirms the prevailing theiry that the sports audience is predominantly male. This pattern is easy to interpret and culturally related to spending time together watching sporting events, which is less characteristic of the female segment of gamblers. Men are more often interested in sports and consequently more likely to become betting site visitors,” commented Alexander Kamenetskyi, Product Owner at SOFTSWISS Sportsbook.
The analysis of the players age revealed that the users aged 41 to 50 years old provide the biggest contribution. More than 55% of Total Bet Sum is generated by this player group. Surprisingly, however, middle-aged players (31-40 years old) are the ones who make the most bets: they account for 37% of the Total Count of bets.
In 2021, people were more likely to use mobile phones to place bets – these made up 65.5% of all bets. However, when it comes to the Bet Sum, the picture changes dramatically. Players spent the most money from desktop devices (62.6% of Total Bets Sum). Tablets prove to be the least popular betting devices.
“Desktop devices tend to be an important tool for professional and VIP players, who use multiple monitors at once to simultaneously study statistics and analyse data in parallel with the game. It is the most advanced way to track changes in real time,” said Alexander Kamenetskyi, Product Owner at SOFTSWISS Sportsbook.
The most popular sports by Bet Sum in 2021:
- Soccer 38.14%
- Basketball 22.62%
- Tennis 16.11%
- Ice Hockey 9.01%
- American Football 8.95%
- Volleyball 5.17%
The top tournaments are as follows:
- NBA 28.32%
- NFL 18.13%
- Premier League 16.78%
- Serie A 13.35%
- La Liga 12.28%
- NHL 11.13%
“Football is the king of betting, as our statistics once again prove. Basketball and tennis, as usual, share second place depending on how well represented they are in client projects given the region of operation. The popularity of each particular sport affects the leading tournaments accordingly,” added Alexander Kamenetskyi, Product Owner at SOFTSWISS Sportsbook.
The most popular cryptocurrencies in sports betting turned out to be:
- Bitcoin 54.73%
- Litecoin 44.22%
- Ethereum 1.05%
An important achievement for the Sportsbook team has been the partnership with one of the leading providers of live odds for eSports, Oddin.gg. The new partnership has enabled Sportsbook to expand its offering with live streaming, multiple live markets and a wide range of eSport tournaments such as Counter-Strike, League of Legends, and Dota 2.
In addition, the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, together with N1 Partners Group, launched its first project on the Nigerian market under a local licence, which SOFTSWISS was granted in February 2021. N1Bet.ng was the first betting project launched by the Sportsbook Team on the African continent.
In terms of functional enhancements, the Sportsbook has significantly expanded the list of bonus offers available. In 2021, the team launched two new types of bonuses at once: Hunting and Freebets. The latest includes No Risk, AllWin and OnlyWin.
“All of the enhancements as part the Sportsbook’s development in 2021 were aimed at exploring new markets, expanding the gambling offering and attracting players. The partnership with new odds provider Oddin.gg will help attract a younger audience who are keen on eSports. The launch of new bonuses, in turn, was a great tool to build and strengthen the loyalty of existing players. Our clients have already been able to appreciate new Sportsbook features and put them into action. Despite last year’s achievements, our team has even more ambitious plans ahead,” concluded Alexander Kamenetskyi, Product Owner at SOFTSWISS Sportsbook.

Cubeia goes live with its Poker 2.0 platform

Cubeia, a Sweden-based iGaming software solutions provider, has launched its highly anticipated Poker 2.0 platform. The latest version features a state-of-the-art multi-threaded game engine written entirely in Java 21 and a new and improved graphical UI.
As a celebration, Cubeia’s Hybrid Poker Network is running a 4-week Beta Test Series, where players are encouraged to report any bugs they experience for a chance to earn rewards of up to $55 in tournament tickets. The new server engine is designed to easily handle player loads in the six-digit range and has future-proof capabilities, such as exposing a poker lobby API to other providers – given the right deal.
One of the many advantages that the server upgrade brings is its ease of feature implementation – thread safety is built-in, removing the need for developers to worry about implementing new platform features. The technical debt has dissipated facilitating updates to be performed quickly and efficiently.
This release comes at the perfect time as there are a number of operators lined up to launch during the remainder of the year. Cubeia is looking forward to not only expanding its poker network but also accommodating operator feature requests with greater agility.
Cubeia’s Head of Poker Simon Isbäck commented: “After about a year and a half worth of development, we can finally clap each other’s backs and be proud of what we’ve accomplished! On Thursday, I will be looking forward to hosting a huge launch party for the entire team! New features will drop faster than ever, and we’re looking forward to launching many industry-relevant features as well as some brand new ones. This is only the beginning!”

Spinomenal releases Wolf & Piggies Chase

Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its latest game in its Adventures Series, Wolf & Piggies Chase. The two arch enemies meet again on a picturesque farmyard surrounded by rolling hills, smiling animals, and huge haystacks. A playful soundtrack ensures a jovial mood for all as players look for Golden Piggy Bank symbols to activate Free Spins.
Players who land on three Golden Piggy Bank symbols will be awarded 10 Free Spins. Four will award 15 Free Spins and five will award 20 Free Spins. In Free Spins only, the Wolf Wild can substitute for all other symbols except for the scattered Free Spins symbol.
Spinomenal’s Instant Cash feature comes into play every time the reel spins and the Instant Cash symbol will randomly show four possible values that are collected in Free Spins. Instant Cash symbols accumulate during the round before they increase the Free Spins metre at the top of the reels.
Once four Wild symbols are found, players will win 10 additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins finish. It also means that the Small Instant Cash symbol (pays x2 or x5 of the total bet) transforms into a Medium Instant Cash symbol which pays out x10 or x15 of the total bet.
Eight Wild symbols found means players will collect six further free spins on all future spins until the free spins end. The Medium Instant Cash symbols turn into Large Instant Cash symbols, which pays out x20 or x25 of the total bet.
After securing 12 Wild symbols, players collect another four additional free spins and on all future spins until the free spins end. This then pushes players into the final level where the Huge Instant Cash symbol is engaged and pays either x50 or x2000 the total bet.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Players will love this fun and feature-packed farm adventure. Wolf & Piggies Chase is a vibrant, colourful addition to our much-loved Adventures Series.”

Belatra releases explosive instant game Mummy’s Mines

Belatra, a leading developer of innovative online slots, has released Mummy’s Mines, an instant game inspired by one of the studio’s most successful titles – Mummyland Treasures.
This version is an all-new instant game adventure that blends suspense, strategy, and ancient treasure-hunting excitement. Before diving into the action, players must select the battlefield: a 3×3, 4×4, or 5×5 grid. Then, it’s a choice on how many mines to face – more mines mean higher potential multipliers – the ultimate risk-reward quandary.
Mummy Mines is set within an eerie underground tomb surrounded by Egyptian artefacts. This fast-paced title challenges players to uncover hidden Scarabs, avoid deadly traps, and chase a glistening Jackpot.
Every successful tile revealed carries players further into the forgotten depths, where fortunes lie buried and danger lurks just beneath the surface. There is also a chance to unearth the special Jackpot Spin. When players uncover a Jackpot tile, a reel spins to determine their fate – landing on a Coin grants a bonus win, a Mine ends the game, and the coveted Jackpot symbol awards the full accumulated prize. As the jackpot value edges closer to its limit, the display starts flashing red, signalling that the treasure is almost ripe for the taking. If the pressure becomes too much, players can take the chance to cash out any accumulated winnings. Belatra’s newest title combines the unique atmosphere of Mummyland Treasures with fresh mechanics that deliver thrilling gameplay in every round.
Sergey Chernyavski, Belatra Games’ CCO, said: “Mummy’s Mines is an explosive hit that is a bold new entry in Belatra’s instant game lineup – offering quick games, big risks, and even bigger rewards. The game honours the charm of the original and players will love seeing the much-loved Mummy character in a new style of game.”
