SOFTSWISS Invests in Largest European Social Casino
SOFTSWISS, a global tech expert with over 15 years of experience in iGaming, acquired a significant stake in Ously Games GmbH, the driving force behind the fastest-growing European social casino SpinArena.net.
As a result of these investments, SOFTSWISS partnered with the German enterprise Ously Games GmbH to develop a new comprehensive software solution for social casinos, aligning with recent iGaming industry trends.
Social casinos, a fast-developing trend in online entertainment, offer a unique fusion of popular casino games and social networking features. Unlike traditional casinos, they operate without real-money betting, utilising virtual currency for gameplay. Social сasinos revenue primarily stems from virtual goods sales, enriching gameplay without monetary risks.
The business model of launching a social casino has no licence requirements or advertising restrictions and grows globally year by year. As per modest estimates of Business Research Insights, the global social casino games market is projected to reach 10 billion euro by 2030. About 85 million people around the globe daily play at social casinos according to the Australian Communications and Media Authority.
The largest by the number of slot games European social casino, SpinArena.net, provided by Ously Games GmbH, has seen its player base triple since the beginning of 2023, surpassing 700 thousand players. With a collection of over 3,000 games from almost 40 providers, the casino reached a one million euro annual turnover.
Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS, comments on the agreement: “Anticipating the development of social casinos within the iGaming industry, SOFTSWISS made strategic investments to diversify its portfolio. Together, we aim to create a comprehensive platform for social casinos, enriching the robust ecosystem of iGaming products provided by our company.”
Ously Games GmbH founder Jochen Martinez shares his expectations: “We are delighted to forge a strategic partnership with the global technology provider SOFTSWISS. This alliance brings invaluable insights, innovations, and profound expertise to both parties. The deal demonstrates our commitment to driving growth and mutual development. Collaborating with SOFTSWISS opens new horizons and ensures access to top-notch resources and support essential for thriving in the competitive iGaming landscape.”
Social casinos are not just a modern trend. They are revolutionising the future of online gambling. The phenomenon sets new industry standards and offers players an unparalleled, safer gaming experience by providing a unique blend of gaming, social engagement, and innovation. Players can engage in various activities, such as connecting with friends, sending gifts, and participating in tournaments, all while playing games like poker, slots, and roulette, with an emphasis on social interaction.

N1 SEO Traffic Cup: One Month to Unlock Rewards
N1 SEO Traffic Cup — the first tournament for SEO teams in the global N1 Traffic Cups series by N1 Partners — is entering its final stage. Halfway through the competition, this is now the key period that will ultimately determine which teams secure positions in the prize levels.
At the same time, it’s still not too late to enter the race and compete for rewards. The tournament is not only about FTD volume — the number of active brands also plays a crucial role. Thanks to the built-in multipliers, teams can significantly accelerate their N1 Cup Score and quickly strengthen their position on the leaderboard.
Results depend entirely on each team’s performance: prize levels are not limited by the number of participants, and any team that reaches the required number of points secures its place. This means you’re not competing for fixed spots but focusing on scaling your own result and hitting the next level.
Progress of the race
More than 250 teams continue to actively drive FTDs to N1 Partners brands, striving to earn points and moving up through the levels.
Working across multiple products gives teams a clear scaling advantage, especially in the final stage. At the same time, the level-based structure allows both large and smaller teams to compete and earn rewards based on their performance — with 5 teams already reaching prize tiers and continuing to push for higher levels, where rewards become even more valuable. Current interim results are published weekly in a private channel available exclusively to tournament participants.
As Alexa Bond, Head of Affiliates at N1 Partners, notes:
“We’re seeing strong engagement from partners — more teams are reaching out, exploring new brands from our portfolio, and actively looking for ways to strengthen their results. If you’re working with SEO traffic, now is the right time to connect with your affiliate manager, discuss your strategy, and explore how to scale and get the most out of the tournament.”
Prize tiers and rewards
The prize pool of N1 SEO Traffic Cup is one of the most extensive and flexible on the market. Teams are distributed across tiers based on their score and can choose either a specific reward or its cash equivalent.
Level 1 (7,000+ points) – €25,000 per team

Extra rewards for participants
Even without reaching the prize tiers, teams still have a chance to win. Bringing just 20 FTD per brand is enough to qualify as a participant and enter additional prize draws. These include PlayStation 5 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, and exclusive N1 Partners merch.
Brand Index: a mechanic built for scaling results
One of the key features of N1 SEO Traffic Cup is the “Brand Index” mechanic. It rewards not only FTD volume, but also traffic diversification. The more brands a partner works with, the higher the multiplier applied to their results.
The core metric — N1 Cup Score — is calculated as: FTD × brand multiplier
The multiplier depends on the number of active brands:
- 1 brand — x1
- 2–3 brands — x2
- 4+ brands — x5
Join the N1 SEO Traffic Cup
Period: March 1 – April 30, 2026
Results announcement: by May 10
Entry: from 20 FTD per brand
N1 Partners means:
- 14+ casino and sportsbook brands with up to 70% Reg2Dep
- 10+ Tier-1 GEOs
- CPA up to €700 and RevShare up to 45% + NNCO for top partners
Be number one with N1.
