SOFTSWISS: Calling Industry Leaders to Join Ukraine Support Initiative

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

SOFTSWISS has suspended all marketing activities to provide financial support to organizations that are helping Ukrainian citizens. Thereby, the company has canceled its participation in the most significant industry exhibition, ICE London, which will take place in April. 

SOFTSWISS shares democratic values and stands in solidarity with Ukraine in its struggle for freedom against the invaders.

In collaboration with reputable iGaming companies, SOFTSWISS has organized funds to support Ukraine. The company calls on its partners and clients to join the project and make a contribution. iGaming representatives are currently offering assistance with the following: delivery of humanitarian aid to hotspots, civilian evacuation, support to refugees who have already crossed the border, and informational support. 

“We believe in the victory of good over evil. We are sure that all our partners are in solidarity with us and will also follow our example. The iGaming industry can’t stay detached from the situation. We are calling industry leaders to join our initiative to support Ukraine! highlighted Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS. 

The company’s team, which is now over 1,000 employees strong, includes people of different nationalities, including Ukrainians. In light of the recent tragic events, SOFTSWISS has done its best to ensure their safety. 

“Let’s condemn the war, but not judge the people who have been forced into it!

At the same time, being an international company with a presence in Belarus, among other countries, SOFTSWISS stresses that all attempts of discrimination based on origin and nationality are unacceptable

It is crucial now to differentiate between the official position of countries and actions of their politicians and the attitude of people towards these actions. 

Belarus has also been fighting for independence and political freedom for many years, and the last two have been especially hard. We faced a lack of actual support from other countries who were speaking but not acting in 2020. The entire Belarusian IT industry made huge efforts to support people and democracy, and any attempts of discriminating against companies and people from this country by blocking access to international events, services, and others are unjustified. It will bring nothing but further tension and conflict. 

From the 20th of February, Belarus is de facto occupied by Russian troops which entered the country for a planned 10-day training maneuver and never left the territory. There is not much that people can do in this situation, but they still support the Ukrainian people and deserve the right to be heard in Europe and worldwide. 

Numerous Russians are now fighting against the aggressor alongside their Ukrainian colleagues and don’t deserve to be subject to discrimination. There are nearly 6,2 million Russians living in the EU today, and many of them already fear becoming deemed fascists.

The best we can do now in our industry is to facilitate peaceful collaboration between companies of different origins and ensure that people of different nationalities can still communicate and work together. Excluding people from the iGaming community and banning them from participating in industry life because of their passports is a way of promoting hatred between nations, the thing that we’ve been trying to overcome for many decades. 

Let’s condemn the war, but not judge the people who have been forced into it! further noted Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS.

New game genres, including ‘Rotocade® ‘ and ‘Dial’, expand content options for North American lottery operators.

Playforge, the next-gen iLottery games studio, has announced a strategic distribution agreement with EQL Games, a provider of disruptive gaming content to lottery partners, bringing a new wave of high-retention, mobile-first iLottery games to the North American market.

The collaboration will leverage EQL’s robust aggregation platform and RGS to seamlessly deliver Playforge’s complete portfolio of iLottery titles to operators.

This include its innovative ‘Rotocade®‘, Dial, and instant win genres that promise to attract a diverse range of players with their novel mechanics and lighting fast mobile-first approach.

As the region’s gaming landscape evolves rapidly, traditional lotteries are facing increased competition from emerging digital betting and entertainment platforms.

This distribution agreement will service online lotteries with the fast-paced, engaging content that attracts the future core of lottery audiences.

The agreement will also allow operators to access new game formats that are tailored to acquire and retain more engaged, digitally native players, while helping modernise lottery brand perception.

Adam Barber, founder and CEO at Playforge, said: “Younger gaming generations demand more from digital content, and player expectations online are evolving fast.

This distribution partnership with EQL Games will help North American lotteries to stay ahead of that curve with our next-generation content, featuring new game concepts that capture players’ imagination and drive loyalty.

“With our in-house expertise that crafts games with novel mechanics and first-rate artistry, combined with EQL’s aggregation know-how and regional market knowledge, we can’t wait to get the future of iLottery content into the hands of players who demand more.”

Brad Cummings, founder and CEO at EQL Games, added:

“Playforge is exactly the kind of contemporary content provider the lottery industry needs to broaden its offerings in the fight to stay relevant to quickly changing player demographics.

Our technology is built to expand access to the best lottery games, empowering operators to leverage content like Playforge’s, which demonstrates first-rate craftsmanship, and the power to engage a new audience of lottery player.

“Short-form game styles are an important part of the portfolio for all lotteries looking to diversify their content portfolio, Playforge’s new and innovative approach will be of significant benefit to our lottery operator partners in the years to come.”

At present, less than a third of US states offer iLottery instant win games. Helping lotteries transition to a more sustainable, future-proof audience is critical to its ongoing success.

Superbet has reinforced its pioneering position in the Brazilian regulated betting market by becoming the first betting platform officially available on Brazil’s Apple Store.

The app listing comes immediately after Apple updated its guidelines on May 8, allowing the distribution of fixed-odds betting applications in the country.

The move further highlights Superbet’s leadership within Brazil’s newly regulated gaming landscape.

The company was among the first operators to secure authorization under the federal betting framework, positioning itself at the forefront of compliance, responsible gaming and digital innovation.

With the application now officially accessible to iOS users in Brazil, customers can enjoy a fully regulated betting experience through a platform operating in accordance with local legislation and Apple’s updated distribution policies.

Industry experts see the measure as an important milestone in the fight against illegal betting operators, while also strengthening consumer protection and trust in licensed brands.

Superbet has significantly expanded its presence in Brazil over recent years through sponsorship agreements, marketing campaigns and strategic partnerships, becoming one of the most visible betting brands in the market.

The operator has also invested heavily in mobile-first technology and user experience, recognizing Brazil as one of the world’s fastest-growing mobile betting environments.

The approval of regulated betting apps on major digital marketplaces is expected to accelerate the migration of users toward licensed operators and contribute to the consolidation of a safer and more transparent betting ecosystem in Brazil.
