SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator Powers First Entire Casino Group
The Jackpot Aggregator, an innovative solution by SOFTSWISS aimed at player retention, is thrilled to announce running a jackpot campaign for Cleopatra Group. This is the first time the Jackpot Aggregator powers the entire group, which means that players of six casinos run by the same operator have a chance to hit the jackpot.
Cleopatra Group includes six fully licensed and regulated online casinos, including the well-known Cleopatra Casino, Paradise Casino and Bitcoincasino. Since the launch of its first casino in 2017, the operator has been famous for its variety of themes and games, engaging storylines and regular updates. The group also offers a wide range of bonuses and best-in-class customer support. Now, with the launch of the jackpot campaign in tandem with the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, Cleopatra Group leverages the progressive solution to offer users a new gaming experience and boost its player retention rates.
The jackpot campaigns will cover all slots, as well as live and table games of Cleopatra’s six casinos. The jackpot pools are progressive and come in three independent jackpot levels: Major (or Mini in Bitcoincasino), Grand, and Mega. This jackpot campaign has an easy entry threshold for players, with a minimum bet of 0.50 EUR. What is more, two casinos in the group – Kingdom Casino and Rollers Casino – run a shared jackpot activity called Lucky Strike, with a common prize pool available for both casinos’ players.
Aliaksei Douhin, Head of SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, comments: “Running a campaign for the entire casino group is an exciting experience with a high level of responsibility, and we are delighted that it is going extremely well. Even though the jackpot campaign covers six brands simultaneously, the launch was speedy due to the great communication with Cleopatra Group and our managers’ efforts. We are grateful to the partners for their trust in our product.”
Cleopatra Group notes: “We are excited about running jackpot campaigns in our casinos, as we always strive to improve our users’ gaming experience. We are confident that working with the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator will bring significant results for our players and us. Right from the start, at the jackpot set-up phase, we received high-quality support from the partner, and the launch of these campaigns for the six casinos went very quick and smooth.”
The Jackpot Aggregator is a multifunctional solution produced by technology company SOFTSWISS, which helps attract new players and retain them in online casinos. The product is regularly updated and recently started supporting jackpot campaigns with a wide range of cryptocurrencies and jackpots on sports betting platforms.

GamCare releases Annual Report following record breaking year of support on the National Gambling Helpline
GamCare’s National Gambling Helpline received a record 55,228 calls and online chats from people experiencing gambling harm in 2023-24 – a 25% increase from the previous year – according to the charity’s Annual Report.
In a year marked by uncertainty over the future shape and structure of the gambling harms treatment sector following the previous government’s white paper on gambling reform, the charity continued to prioritise those at-risk of, or currently experiencing, gambling harm.
Of all calls and online chats that were responded to on GamCare’s Helpline in 2023/24, 41,070 (74%) were classed as supportive interventions. This includes supporting people with initial guidance and advice as well as delivering a seamless entry point into structured treatment services, with individuals completing treatment reporting a significant reduction in gambling-related distress and financial harm.
In March 2024, the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities published an assessment of the gambling treatment system, highlighting that 57% of individuals engaging in treatment were referred by the National Gambling Helpline. This underscores the Helpline’s critical role in connecting people to the support they need. Over 9,100 free treatment sessions were delivered in the year to April 2024, with an average of just 2.1 days’ wait from point of referral.
GamCare’s targeted programmes aimed at young people, women, and the criminal justice system provided training on how to spot the signs of harms and where to signpost into support for 10,344 professionals, and education for 53,324 young people, children and parents. The Women’s Programme, in partnership with organisations such as Refuge, trained 3,813 professionals to recognise and address gambling-related harm among women.
Margot Daly, Executive Chair of GamCare’s Board, says: “Throughout a challenging year and with heightened demand for our services, GamCare’s staff have got on with the job of preventing harm where possible and treating harm where necessary. While we expect important changes in the gambling harms landscape, we have been determined not to let this uncertainty affect our relentless focus on the people who really matter – those at-risk of or currently experiencing gambling harms.
“I would like to thank and pay tribute to our frontline staff who provide 24/7 support for all those at risk or in distress. I also want to thank GamCare’s senior executive team who have steered GamCare through a period of sustained change, and to my fellow trustees for their guidance, unwavering support and the time each has dedicated to ensuring that the charity stays on course and on mission.
“As we look ahead to how the future of the gambling harms sector is shaped, we are committed to working proactively with the NHS and other partners and commissioners to ensure that people are continually able to receive the right support at the right time.”
