The survey was conducted among partners of the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, one of the most demanded products in the company’s portfolio.
Survey results: Industry insights
According to the research, the crucial functional reasons for choosing a business partner in the iGaming industry are the following:
- Wide range of games
- Flexibility in discussing terms of service

As for the emotional characteristics which influence the decision, the top 3 became:
- Simple and quick communication with the [account] manager
- Offers you services and products that meet the needs of your company
- Long-term partnerships
The least important emotional attribute is the software partner’s prestige.
Based on the survey, clients cite the main reasons to terminate the business relationship would be poor quality or lengthy request resolution, lack of involvement of a company representative in resolving issues, as well as lack of additional technical features and functionality.

AppsFlyer State of Gaming Report: AI Is Flooding Mobile Gaming Marketing Channels and Raising the Cost of Standing Out
State of Gaming for Marketers 2026 reveals how AI-driven scale, global UA spend, and China-based publishers are reshaping mobile gaming competition
AppsFlyer, the Modern Marketing Cloud, today released the State of Gaming for Marketers 2026, an in-depth analysis of how AI, creative scale, and rising paid pressure reshaped mobile gaming marketing in 2025. Drawing on AppsFlyer data, the report examines how studios adapted as marketing activity expanded faster than player attention.
In 2025, AI-enabled production coincided with a sharp increase in advertising across iOS and Android. Creative output scaled rapidly across all spending tiers, with top gaming advertisers producing between 2,400 and 2,600 creative variations per quarter, up 25–30% YoY. That expansion increased pressure on paid acquisition channels. Paid install share rose 10% YoY across iOS and Android, while ad impressions increased 20%, indicating a significant rise in the number of ads competing for the same pool of players. To manage rising marketing volume and fragmentation, AI-enabled tools became a common part of daily workflows with 46% of AI assistant queries focused on reporting and performance breakdowns, reflecting the need for faster visibility as data volumes grew.
“AI has dramatically increased the speed and volume at which games and marketing assets reach the market,” says Adam Smart, Director of Product, Gaming at AppsFlyer. “The result is not a shortage of creativity, but a surplus of it. As paid activity and creative supply expand faster than player attention, marketing success depends on how effectively teams can measure, interpret, and act on an increasing volume of fragmented signals.”
Additional key insights from the State of Gaming for Marketers 2026
- Global gaming app UA spend reached $25B in 2025. Midcore UA spend increased 28% YoY on iOS, while Android spend remained largely flat.
● China-headquartered publishers increased their share of global gaming UA spend. Their share grew by 26% YoY in the UK, and 22% globally, with gains strongest on Android.
● iOS paid installs reached record highs. Share in the UK rose across Casino (+13%), Hypercasual (+10%), and Midcore (+30%).
● iOS advertisers expanded media mix to find incremental scale. iOS gaming advertisers increased the number of media sources they used by up to 15% YoY, reflecting growing fragmentation and the need to diversify beyond core channels.
● AI is still used primarily to manage marketing scale, not strategy. With 46% of AI assistant queries focused on reporting and performance breakdowns, teams are using AI to keep pace with rising data volumes rather than replace decision-making, but some genres are already employing more complex tasks and asks.
Methodology
AppsFlyer’s State of Gaming for Marketers 2026 is based on anonymized, aggregated data from 9.6 thousand gaming apps worldwide, analyzing 24.8 billion total installs, including 14.1 billion paid installs, alongside ad spend, creative production, monetization, AI-assisted workflows, and media source usage across iOS and Android during 2025.

Casino Content Strategy
Slot Game Portfolio Valuation and What High-Performing Content Means for Operator Valuations
Slot portfolios have moved from background assets to headline valuation drivers.
Content quality, consistency and player response now shape how gaming businesses are priced.
The way operator value is assessed has become more nuanced. Revenue still matters, but it no longer tells the full story. Attention has shifted toward what generates that revenue and how reliably it can continue to do so. Slot game portfolios now sit at the centre of that conversation.
If the content keeps players engaged without heavy intervention, confidence grows. That confidence influences how lenders, buyers and partners view long-term stability and growth potential.
Slot Portfolios Are No Longer Secondary Assets
Slot games generate a large share of casino revenue across most regulated markets. That reality has forced valuation models to evolve. Slot content is no longer treated as a supporting feature. It is viewed as a core operational asset.
When reviewing an operator, analysts now ask direct questions about slot performance. How concentrated is revenue around a small group of titles? How quickly do new releases gain traction? How stable is engagement across the year? These answers help determine whether earnings are sustainable.
In the first third of many valuation discussions, online slots appear alongside metrics like player retention and average revenue per user. That placement reflects how closely content performance is tied to perceived business strength.
What Separates High-Performing Slot Content From the Rest
A large library alone does not impress experienced evaluators. Performance matters more than volume. High-performing portfolios convert interest into repeat play and steady revenue over time.
Several traits tend to stand out:
- A mix of volatility levels that supports both casual and higher-value players
- Titles that remain relevant months after launch
- Smooth mobile performance that avoids friction
- Consistent technical reliability
When these elements are present, revenue patterns become easier to forecast. Predictability reduces perceived risk, directly influencing valuation outcomes.
This is where online slots play a defining role. They offer frequent engagement and repeat sessions that are easier to measure than one-off betting activity.
Content Diversity as a Risk Management Tool
From a valuation perspective, concentration risk is a red flag. Portfolios that rely too heavily on a narrow theme or a small group of titles can suffer sudden drops in performance.
Diverse slot libraries spread that risk. Different themes, mechanics and pacing styles attract different player types. If interest fades in one area, activity often shifts rather than disappears.
This diversification stabilizes revenue without the need for constant promotional pressure. That stability matters during due diligence. It signals that earnings are supported by structure rather than short-term incentives.
For many investors, a well-balanced online slots portfolio suggests disciplined content planning rather than reactive decision-making.
Player Retention Tells a Clearer Valuation Story
Retention has become one of the clearest signals of portfolio health. High-performing slot content keeps players returning because the experience feels rewarding and familiar.
When session frequency remains steady and average playtime holds, operating efficiency improves. Marketing spend stretches further. Margins become easier to protect.
Retention driven by slot play also strengthens cross-activity behaviour. Players who trust the slot experience are more likely to explore other offerings. This reinforces platform stickiness, which valuation models increasingly reward.
Repeated engagement with online slots often signals long-term value rather than temporary spikes in activity.
Why Buyers Look Closely at Slot Performance Data
During acquisition talks, slot data is rarely skimmed. Buyers want clarity. They want to know which titles carry weight and how performance changes over time.
Clear documentation makes a difference. Strong portfolios come with transparent performance histories, consistent contribution margins and evidence of player loyalty.
This clarity reduces integration risk. Content that already resonates with players tends to maintain momentum even when ownership changes. That continuity supports stronger pricing discussions.
In markets where online slots dominate revenue mix, content quality can outweigh short-term earnings swings when final valuations are set.
Long-Term Market Confidence and Content Quality
Positive sentiment around online casino gaming and sports betting continues to support content-led valuation models. Slot games, in particular, scale efficiently across regions and devices.
When platforms expand, slot libraries often deliver immediate engagement without complex onboarding. That ability reinforces confidence in future earnings.
Mentions of online slots in valuation commentary are no longer incidental. They reflect a broader shift in how value is understood. Content strength now acts as proof of operational maturity.
Why Slot Content Now Shapes Valuation Outcomes
The logic of valuations has evolved. Financial performance remains important, but the quality of content goes a long way toward explaining why companies with similar performance earn such different valuations, especially when revenue performance looks similar on paper.
Effective slot portfolios are stable, flexible and trusted by their players. These attributes carry as much weight as balance sheets because they indicate how well an operation can adapt to different market and patron demands.
The implications for operators with expansion and exit plans could not be clearer. High-quality slot content is not something that sits behind the scenes. It is perhaps the most obvious determinant of value and the key to building and maintaining investor confidence and sustainable performance.
