In 2024, SOFTSWISS, a leading tech provider in iGaming, celebrates its 15th anniversary, reflecting on its transformative journey in the industry. Since its inception, the company has evolved into a powerhouse, reshaping the online gaming experience.

The SOFTSWISS brand was established in 2009 based on a small outsourcing company. In 2012, the company entered the iGaming world with its innovative flagship product, the Casino Platform. After over a decade in operation, the Casino Platform serves a monthly audience of over six million active players across 250 brands. The monthly GGR shows growth of over 120% year-on-year. 

Continuing its forward movement, SOFTSWISS pioneered the industry by becoming the world’s first crypto iGaming provider in 2013 with its Crypto Solution, which revolutionised online transactions in this sector. 

Setting a new benchmark for the industry, the company evolved into a software ecosystem provider. The products and tools within the SOFTSWISS technological ecosystem address all the needs of operators looking to launch and develop their iGaming business.

Integrated into this ecosystem, the Game Aggregator, launched in 2015, has a vast game portfolio, with monthly bets exceeding 11 billion euro. 

Affilka by SOFTSWISS, introduced in 2018 as an innovative solution for affiliate marketing management, enhances SOFTSWISS’ portfolio by streamlining client affiliate marketing processes. According to a recent Kantar survey, it attained a 91% satisfaction rate based on feedback, with the total number of clients reaching 320.

The SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, launched in 2020, provides unique tools for sports betting. Offering almost 200 sports, including esports, it showed 6.6 times GGR growth in 2023.

The latest product in SOFTSWISS’ portfolio, the Jackpot Aggregator, is already powering over 70 brands, with over 290 Jackpot campaigns launched since 2021. This solution effectively retains and engages players, addressing key industry challenges for operators.

 

As evidence of expertise and innovative approach, in 2023, SOFTSWISS products gained 15 industry awards, including the Crypto Company of the Year, Best Aggregator, Best Affiliate Marketing Solution, the Brand IDOL of the Year at such reputable awards as EGR, International Gaming Awards, and the iGaming IDOL.

“In our journey of constant commitment to client success, our strength lies not in titles but in the expertise and talent of our employees, the driving force behind all our achievements. It’s gratifying to see our company’s growth, now uniting over 2,000 professionals in five offices worldwide. Celebrating our 15th anniversary in 2024, we look forward to sharing exciting surprises with our team, clients, and partners throughout the year to honour this milestone,” shares Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS.

Swedish gaming giant’s industry signals commitment to the UK regulated market by launching it leading portfolio of games with Ivy Casino 

Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, has today announced that its industry leading portfolio of games is now live with Ivy Casino in the UK. 

Ivy Casino’s players in the United Kingdom can now access global smash hits from Play’n GO, including Book of Dead, Legacy of Dead, and Rise of Olympus 100 among many others. 

Ivy Casino is a UK-facing online casino brand that launched in 2024 with a focus on delivering a premium, player-centric experience tailored specifically for the UK market. 

The brand operates alongside two sister sites, Rose Casino and O’Reels, which also serve UK audiences and share the same commitment to high-quality entertainment, strong user experience and robust responsible gaming standards. 

Play’n GO has been one of the leading game suppliers in the UK for many years and is steadfast in its commitment to regulated markets globally. 

Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer of Play’n GO, said:

“We are delighted to launch with Ivy Casino in the UK who, like us, are focused on all the key elements of operating within a regulated market framework. I’m sure this is just the beginning of a long and fruitful partnership.” 

Mark Good, representing Ivy Casino, said:

“This partnership with Play’n GO forms part of Ivy Casino’s ongoing strategy to enhance its content offering for UK players by collaborating with leading studios known for creative, engaging gameplay.” 

Play’n GO is a proud sponsor of the Moneygram Haas Formula 1 team, and recently launched a fashion brand, Play’n GO Shop, to sit alongside its existing Play’n GO Music brand to give fans more ways to connect with Play’n GO. 

In October, Play’n GO set a world record by launching everyone’s favourite slot character, Garga, into space reaching a height of over 35,500m as part of the launch campaign for Reactoonz 100 which instantly became one of the biggest game launches of the year for the company.

Esportes da Sorte, one of Brazil’s leading online betting platforms, will be the official sponsor of New Year’s Eve celebrations in four Brazilian capitals: Salvador, Recife, Natal and Maceió. The initiative reinforces the brand’s growing presence in the national cultural calendar and its strategy to connect with large-scale public celebrations beyond the digital environment.

New Year’s Eve is one of Brazil’s most significant annual moments, marked by intense domestic travel, international tourism and mass public participation. By supporting celebrations in four key destinations, Esportes da Sorte aligns its brand with tradition, culture and shared experiences that resonate deeply with local communities.

“Sponsoring New Year’s Eve celebrations in four capitals reflects our commitment to being present in moments that bring people together,” said Marcela Campos, Vice President of the Esportes Gaming Brasil Group, owner of the Esportes da Sorte brand. “Supporting these cities means valuing their cultural identity, strengthening local ecosystems and celebrating the people who keep these traditions alive year after year.”

Across all four capitals, the brand will activate its presence through immersive experiences, public-facing activations and the distribution of branded giveaways — a hallmark of Esportes da Sorte’s engagement strategy at major events. The activations are designed to enhance the festive atmosphere while reinforcing the brand’s connection with culture, entertainment and responsible enjoyment.

The New Year’s Eve sponsorships build on Esportes da Sorte’s broader cultural engagement strategy, which includes long-standing support for large-scale events such as Carnatal, in Rio Grande do Norte — a key fixture in the state’s tourism and cultural calendar. Together, these initiatives reflect the company’s commitment to expanding its footprint in cultural sponsorships nationwide.

Esportes da Sorte’s participation also mirrors a wider trend within Brazil’s regulated betting market, as operators increasingly diversify their sponsorship portfolios beyond football. Music, festivals and cultural celebrations have become strategic platforms for brands seeking broader visibility, deeper community ties and more sustainable engagement with the public.
