SOFTSWISS: Calling Industry Leaders to Join Ukraine Support Initiative
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.

CasinoCanada has announced a strategic partnership with MelBet, the international betting and gaming operator, aimed at expanding the brand’s footprint in Canada through dedicated content and brand representation on CasinoCanada’s digital platforms.
Under the agreement, CasinoCanada.com will produce detailed reviews and SEO-focused content tailored to Canadian audiences. The partnership is designed to provide users with clear, transparent information about MelBet’s products and services, while enhancing the operator’s visibility in Canada and driving traffic to the MelBet website.

Through CasinoCanada, we will focus on delivering clear, data-based content tailored to users in Canada and quality traffic to the MelBet website. This partnership is structured around transparent communication and long-term cooperation.”
MelBet offers daily betting on over 1,000 events across sports and esports, alongside a wide range of slots from more than 120 global providers.

Hub88 launches Player Analytics to give operators complete view of user behaviour
Hub88 has enhanced its Operator Backoffice suite with the launch of Player Analytics, a tool designed to provide operators with a clear, actionable view of player behaviour across their platform.
Traditionally, understanding player activity has been a manual, time-consuming process, often requiring data to be pulled from multiple systems or spreadsheets. Player Analytics consolidates this information into a single interface, improving efficiency and enabling data-driven decision-making.
The tool offers two main interfaces:
-
Table View: Provides broad segmentation and filtering across the entire player base. Operators can sort players by date, product, country, device, currency, or player ID, and save custom segments for ongoing analysis.
-
Player Profile: Delivers a detailed overview of individual users, including gameplay history, KPIs, supplier activity, devices, currencies, geography, and flagged events — all presented via customizable charts and dashboards.
With advanced insights, operators can detect financial spikes or drops, analyze behavioural trends, forecast churn, and identify potential fraud. Linking supplier IDs directly to player activity also helps operators spot inconsistencies and streamline support processes.
Ollie Castleman, Managing Director of Hub88, commented:
“With high volumes of player activity, modern operators are often overwhelmed by raw data. Player Analytics gives teams the ability to understand player behaviour at both a high level and in granular detail, without relying on manual processes or specialists. Operators deserve clarity, speed and actionable insight, and through this new tool, they can make smarter decisions with confidence.”
The launch of Player Analytics reinforces Hub88’s commitment to providing operators with tools that enhance efficiency, support long-term growth, and maximize platform performance.

155.io’s CCTV Game hits the fast lane as Stake, Shuffle and Roobet go live with real-world traffic gameplay
155.io, the live content studio pioneering real-world gameplay, has launched its brand-new CCTV-based game, Rush Hour, with major operators Stake, Shuffle, and Roobet.
Part of 155.io’s CCTV.game portfolio, Rush Hour turns live traffic footage from around the globe into a fast-paced betting experience. Players predict outcomes like how many cars pass a junction or which direction vehicles take in under-a-minute rounds, creating unpredictable, real-world gameplay rather than relying on traditional RNG.
The game has already generated over 5 million views from a single streamer and is designed mobile-first, offering immersive, relatable action that appeals to the next generation of players. Available via Hub88 or direct integration, Rush Hour reflects 155.io’s philosophy: real-world chaos, simple games, mobile-first entertainment.
Sam Jones, Founder & CEO of 155.io, said: “The speed at which our live CCTV.game, Rush Hour, has become a phenomenon is crazy. Being taken on by big names like Stake, Shuffle and Roobet highlights the level of demand we’re seeing from the next generation of players. The data we are seeing from around the world is incredible, and it’s clear we’re building something that genuinely resonates with audiences looking for innovative concepts, rather than the same types of games we have seen for years.”
