NSoft exceeds growth expectations, delivering strong Q4 2021 results
by Dražan Planinić, COO at NSoft
The dawn of the second COVID-19 year was all but the COVID-coloured. The entire 2021 was shaped to fit our further development and the expansion of the business, therefore the last quarter of the year was a worthy closure.
The markets where NSoft is traditionally strong continued to grow steadily with new customers, some returning customers and enhancing co-operation with the existing ones. Fourth-quarter results reflect NSoft’s strategic investments in its core product categories. The overall stake in Q4 2021 grew by 20% YoY and the number of tickets surpassed Q4 2020 data by 12%.
Stake growth by the distribution channels:
- Land-based betting business: 22.5%
- Online: 14.3%
Land-based vs online business ratio continued to improve in Q4 2021. A great portion of new business in 2021 was online with notable growth for some particular games. The most prominent was Roulette and Next Six draw-based games together with Virtual Penalty Shootout and Greyhound Races from the virtual sports betting and racers categories.
Optimove CRM Marketing Solution integrated into our Seven Sportsbook platform
We were closing the integration process with the industry-leading CRM Marketing Hub Optimove in the last quarter of 2021. The partnership with Optimove came as we aspire to provide the best-in-class solutions for betting operators to boost player lifetime value, boost retention rates, and significantly scale multi-channel personalization. Balkan Bet, a long-time client of ours, was the first one to introduce Optimove’s AI-mapped CRM. The system allows the operator to maximise players’ lifetime value by micro-segmenting its audience and ensuring that every player is approached with the most personal message, every given time across every channel. The time of Dear Customer is long gone. Both the players and the operators know better and are aware that personalisation of the message and the delivery of the exact content player needs is imperative. Players don’t want to be bothered with irrelevant information.
T-1000 Self-Service Betting Terminal on US Market
In the previous quarterly update, I have announced the partnership with Suzohapp, a world leader in the manufacturing and distribution of gaming, amusement and sports betting products. Suzohapp carries a vast portfolio of components available for immediate distribution and for developing custom-built solutions. The company is our representative for the US market and already in Q4 2021, T-1000, Stark’s premium self-service betting terminals, were sold to the first buyers.
The certification of the terminal for the USA was done before in Q3 2021.
Industry recognition: GGA 2022 nomination in the category Retail Supplier of the year
In December 2021, we received one more confirmation of excellence. NSoft has been shortlisted for the Global Gaming Awards London 2022 in the Retail Supplier of the year category.
NSoft’s betting platform serves more than 60,000 devices daily, with a 20% increase in the number of punters and it is used by clients across 5 continents. This decision was merited by unique solutions for the retail business such as Remote device management that provides a sense of presence in any given betting shop by having full control over devices and daily operations even if you are physically miles away from it. Once again we are honoured and humbled to be recognized as one of the industry’s leading betting and gaming suppliers.
In total, NSoft has been shortlisted for 23 awards in 2021 in different categories – from Sportsbook and individual games to iGaming platform categories.
Lottery in Retail
In Q4 we have extended the Lottery to the retail channel as well. NSoft Lottery is provided through Betradar Unified Odds Feed (UOF), which covers 160+ lotteries from over 30 countries. Also, UOF minimises the possibilities of errors and disturbances in production. World lotteries have never been closer to the punters. Seven admin platform tool allows operators to choose the custom offer of tournaments and events for printing.

As a result of Sales Boot Camp, an intense one-month-long programme for sales forces we have conducted during the course of October and November, we are richer for four new colleagues in our Business stream. New forces in Sales have already tackled the challenges of constant growth in clients and new markets.
We are immensely proud that our Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS) increased to 61. This indicator represents the number of employees who would recommend their employer as a great place to work. The scale is ranging from -100 to +100 and is the ratio between employees detractors and employees promoters. The eNPS score above 50 is considered to be excellent so we are on the right track when it comes to the power of the team!
In general, hybrid work and clear business strategy and goals, together with healthy and stable corporate culture, helped us navigate throughout the entire 2021 with success.

Betano says it will fund weekly training for 192 athletes with Down syndrome and support the FUT21 National Tournament pathway ahead of October.
Betano has partnered with Fundación Empate to launch an adapted football-friendly tournament in Argentina, as part of the operator’s “Desafiá tus límites” (Challenge Your Limits) corporate responsibility programme.
The company said the partnership will support 192 athletes with Down syndrome by funding weekly practices, while also providing operational resources to strengthen training in the run-up to the FUT21 National Tournament in October. Fundación Empate describes FUT21 as Argentina’s main futsal competition for athletes with Down syndrome, bringing together delegations from across the country.
Germán Laborda, President of Fundación Empate, said: “For us, this support means much more than financial aid. It is a concrete opportunity for our players to keep growing, training, and showcasing all their talent. Having companies like Betano get involved in real inclusion helps bring visibility to the enormous effort and commitment of each member of our foundation.”
Alvaro Ferreres, Betano Country Manager for Argentina, added: “At Betano, we understand that social responsibility means getting truly involved and supporting the people behind every story. Supporting the players of Fundación Empate means proving that a company can be an ally that drives opportunities, inclusion, and development through sports.”
Beyond athlete funding, Betano said it will develop Teacher Training Workshops for Inclusive Sports aimed at more than 800 sports professionals, including coaches, physical education teachers and physiotherapists, as well as teams for athletes with Down Syndrome. The company positioned the initiative as part of its broader adapted sports activity under “Desafiá tus límites”, which it said also includes support for Argentina’s national blind football team, Los Murciélagos (The Bats).

In a seven-day Onclick campaign, Social Traffic delivered 23.3% of registrations from 17.3% of impressions, the company reports.
PropellerAds has published new user acquisition results from a seven-day game registration campaign in Nigeria, reporting that its “Social Traffic” segment outperformed overall traffic on registrations and revenue efficiency.
According to the company, Social Traffic represented 17.3% of total impressions (20,076 of 115,671) but delivered 23.3% of registrations (199 of 853) and 24.5% of revenue ($96.06 of $392.46). Registrations per 1,000 impressions rose to 9.91 for Social Traffic versus 7.37 campaign-wide, a 34.5% increase. Revenue per 1,000 impressions (RPM) increased to $4.78 versus $3.39, up 41%.
Social Traffic is a targeting subtype within PropellerAds’ Onclick/Popunder format. When enabled on the company’s Self-Service Platform (SSP), ads are served only in placements where a user arrived from a social network such as Facebook or Instagram immediately before landing on the publisher’s page.
PropellerAds attributed the performance gap to browsing context and user intent, arguing that users coming from social platforms are more likely to complete multi-step actions such as registration. Petros Sofroniou, Account Strategist at PropellerAds, said: “In highly competitive user acquisition environments, traffic quality is increasingly critical. In practice, Social Traffic helps advertisers reach users who are more engaged and willing to take action, thereby improving registration performance in campaigns.”
The company positioned the results against what it described as a rapidly expanding Nigerian games market, citing estimates of a $3.5 billion market with roughly 60 million active users and 61% year-over-year growth. PropellerAds said it recommends testing Social Traffic as a dedicated segment and, where results hold, splitting it into a separate campaign for clearer optimization signals; it also suggested using roughly 20× target CPA as a test budget and running tests for 36–48 hours, while noting performance can vary by market and product.

Marca reuniu mais de mil convidados entre ex-atletas, influenciadores e artistas para celebração inspirada em uma das tradições culturais mais populares do país, durante o principal momento do futebol internacional em 2026
O maior São João brasileiro realizado fora do Brasil tomou conta de Miami na última terça-feira (23). Promovido pela Betnacional e organizado pela AMG, agência especializada em posicionar grandes marcas brasileiras nos Estados Unidos, reuniu mais de mil convidados e levou uma das manifestações culturais mais populares do país para os Estados Unidos justamente no período em que a cidade concentra milhares de brasileiros acompanhando o principal momento do futebol mundial.
Realizado no Jóia Beach Club, o São João Betnacional transformou o espaço em um grande arraial à beira-mar, reunindo música, gastronomia típica, experiências interativas e referências às tradições juninas celebradas em todas as regiões do Brasil. A proposta foi transportar para Miami a atmosfera de uma das festas mais emblemáticas da cultura brasileira e proporcionar aos convidados uma experiência de conexão com suas origens mesmo longe de casa.
“Tem coisa mais brasileira do que isso? De um lado, milhares de pessoas reunidas para viver a emoção de acompanhar a Seleção. Do outro, o São João acontecendo por todo o país. A gente quis trazer essas duas paixões para o mesmo lugar. E não de qualquer jeito. Fizemos questão de construir um São João de verdade, com respeito às tradições, à música, à cultura e às pessoas que fazem essa festa ser tão especial. Ter o Movimento Verde e Amarelo com a gente tornou tudo ainda mais simbólico. Foi uma noite para celebrar o Brasil em sua essência”, afirma Jorge Peixoto, Head de Brand Experience da Betnacional.
E o encontro entre essas paixões também se refletiu no público presente. O evento reuniu personalidades brasileiras, influenciadores, atletas, artistas e convidados especiais, que vem acompanhando a trajetória da seleção nos Estados Unidos.
Tradição brasileira em solo americano
A autenticidade da experiência também esteve presente nas atrações da noite. Entre os destaques da programação estavam a apresentação da quadrilha junina e os shows da cantora Gabi Lacombe, artista radicada nos Estados Unidos que levou ao evento o tradicional forró pé de serra, e do músico Rafa Mesquita, com um repertório marcado pela música brasileira contemporânea. Com apresentações cheias de energia e identidade, os artistas ajudaram a transportar para Miami o clima característico do São João brasileiro.
