Latest commercial figures mark second consecutive year of exponential growth

Altenar, the leading sportsbook and iGaming software provider, has celebrated another year of exponential growth as it closes its 2021 financial year with record-breaking commercial figures.

The UKGC-licensed supplier has continued to prove itself as one of the most stable and flexible platforms on the market – quickly establishing itself as the sportsbook of choice for operators looking to capitalise on the next generation of players.

Over the course of the year, Altenar has hit key targets in several areas of its business, allowing it to expand across multiple key jurisdictions with notable successes across the UK, Italy, Spain, Sweden and Colombia.

In total, Altenar’s expansion into new markets coupled with strategic partnerships has seen Altenar grow its commercial client base by 270% over the 2021 financial year, surpassing an already outstanding 130% for 2020.

The provider’s sportsbook has also marked record-breaking growth, seeing a surge in 150% for total bets and player count, with its key specialisations across Esports, data and virtuals proving to be a major engagement and acquisition tool for operator partners.

Testament to the Altenar’s contribution to the industry, the previous year has also seen the supplier celebrate multiple industry awards, including Best Online Sports-Betting Supplier at the 2021 MiGEA Awards, as well as taking home Virtual Sports Supplier of the Year at the 2022 EGR Nordic Awards.

Commenting on the company’s record-breaking year, Domenico Mazzola, Commercial Director at Altenar said:

“It’s been an outstanding 12 months for all of us at Altenar and we’re very proud of our excellent numbers, with yet another year of record-breaking success! The team has worked extremely hard while all focusing on the same goal which is fantastic to see.

“The 2021 financial year has seen us greatly expand our products and services, as well as our global offices, with a 36% increase in headcount. It’s brilliant to have so many new specialists aboard and I have no doubt we will continue to grow and develop throughout 2022 as the team looks to keep this momentum going!”

Licensed across a total of 13 major global markets, Altenar has established itself as the sportsbook provider of choice for multiple leading operators.

Founded in 2011 with more than a decade of experience, the company’s sportsbook and iGaming platform has a proven track record of outstanding success across the likes of the UK, Malta, Spain, Colombia, Denmark and Sweden.

F*Bastards says its casino content is now available through more than 400 operators worldwide, marking a distribution milestone for the iGaming supplier as it continues to expand its portfolio and partner network.

In a company statement outlining its background, Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas said the team’s earlier attempt to build a game studio fell short due to positioning rather than production capability. “Looking back, we realised we weren’t missing talent. We were missing identity. We could build games, but we hadn’t built something people could remember. That lesson became the starting point for everything F*Bastards would later become.” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.

The company said it intentionally built its brand around differentiation, including the decision to use the name F*Bastards despite the expectation it would split opinion among potential partners. The founders described early progress as incremental, driven by game releases, industry events, operator feedback and relationship-building, rather than a single breakout moment.

F*Bastards also pointed to a fundraising milestone in 2026, saying it secured its first seven-figure investment. The company positioned the round as validation of execution rather than an early-stage concept.

“From day one, the goal wasn’t to become the biggest supplier. It was to build something people would remember. We’ve come a long way, but in many ways, it still feels like we’re only getting started” says Co-Founder Ugnius Seskas.
