Cashout Cancellation and Timezone Management: SOFTSWISS Casino Platform Unveils Updates
The SOFTSWISS Casino Platform, an award-winning software for online casinos, releases two bonus features. Cashout cancellation bonus and Timezone management are aimed to influence two vital casino project metrics – engagement and retention.
Cashout Cancellation Bonus
The Cashout Cancellation Bonus allows players to receive a reward for cancelling their cashout requests. Players can cancel their entire cashout or choose to cancel 25%, 50%, or 75% of it. When a player cancels their cashout and receives the bonus, both the bonus funds and the cashout amount are locked in their account until the bonus wagered requirements are met. This feature is available for both the client’s and SOFTSWISS’ frontend platforms. Its primary function is to retain players.
Timezone Management Bonus Feature
The Timezone Management feature allows casinos to consider different time zones when issuing bonuses. Projects using the SOFTSWISS Casino Platform can specify time zones to issue or restrict bonuses to players within certain time zones. This feature aims to increase personalisation and engagement with the casino’s bonus policies, especially for casinos operating across multiple time zones.
Darya Avtukhovich, Head of SOFTSWISS Casino Platform, reflects on these updates: “Despite the many awards, we haven’t stopped to rest on our laurels. Player engagement and retention are crucial elements of an iGaming project’s business strategy. Acquisition costs are extremely high, which is why operators need to work closely with engagement and retention. We are putting much effort into further developing our product features that work towards these metrics.”
These new features are part of SOFTSWISS’ ongoing actions to enhance the company’s robust ecosystem of products for the online casino industry. For licensed operators looking for a complete software solution, the SOFTSWISS Turnkey Casino Solution offers a full suite of services to support smooth operations. To ensure a more successful project implementation in the competitive iGaming market, an operator can leverage Managed Services, which delivers a full range of B2C solutions as well as its own affiliate marketing program based on Affilka by SOFTSWISS platform.

Tony Bellew signs as PartyPoker brand ambassador through 2026
Former WBC cruiserweight champion to appear at PartyPoker Tour UK stops and take part in online activations.
PartyPoker has appointed former WBC Cruiserweight World Champion Tony Bellew as a brand ambassador for the remainder of 2026, with appearances tied to the operator’s live PartyPoker Tour and online poker offering.
The company said Bellew will be “a regular face” at its remaining UK tour stops this season following an earlier appearance at the PartyPoker Tour Birmingham. Bellew will also take part in online activity linked to the PartyPoker schedule.
“I had such a great time at the PartyPoker Tour Birmingham. The atmosphere, the people and the passion for the game were incredible. I’m really excited to be joining the PartyPoker team for the rest of the year, getting involved at the live events, meeting players and seeing where the cards take me,” Bellew said.
PartyPoker said Bellew is scheduled to attend each remaining UK stop on the 2026 PartyPoker Tour: London in July, Glasgow in August, Cork in November, and London in December. The operator also referenced a series of exclusive online events running alongside the live calendar.

Arizona regulator orders five operators to stop alleged illegal gambling activity
Cease-and-desist letters cite alleged felonies and underage access tied to BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator.
The Arizona Department of Gaming said it has issued cease-and-desist orders to five online platforms—BetOpenly, Bookmaker, Club WPT Online Poker, Kutt Inc., and Raffle Creator—after investigations that the Department says involved alleged illegal gambling activity and underage access in Arizona.
In its announcement, the Department said each enforcement action alleges conduct giving rise to three felonies under Arizona law: promotion of gambling, illegal control of an enterprise, and money laundering. The agency cited Arizona’s prohibition on gambling unless specifically authorized (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Tit. 13, Ch. 33) and said the legal gambling age in the state is 21.
“Arizona is taking decisive action against illegal gambling operators that put Arizonans at risk,” said Jackie Johnson, Department Director. “Our top priority is protecting Arizonans and I’m grateful for the efforts of our intelligence unit led by Chief Law Enforcement Officer Doug Jensen to do just that. Through these cease-and-desist orders we are putting operators on notice: their conduct runs contrary to Arizona law and they must stop promoting illegal gambling.”
The Department’s letters describe different alleged violations by operator. For BetOpenly, the Department said peer-to-peer gambling rules prohibit third-party benefit, and alleged the platform benefited via a commission structure while enabling event wagering and daily fantasy sports contests without the required state licenses, including availability to underage Arizonans. For Bookmaker, the Department said its investigation found wagering on horse racing, casino games, and sports betting without an event wagering license or an advanced deposit wagering provider license, adding that online casino games are not legal in Arizona.
For Club WPT Online Poker, the Department alleged the platform enabled individuals under 21 in Arizona to enter pay-to-play online poker tournaments for prizes while using deceptive “no purchase necessary” language; the Department said online poker is illegal in Arizona. For Kutt Inc., the Department said Arizona “social” gambling prohibits third-party benefit and directed the operator to stop allowing Arizona users to deposit money and wager on sports, politics, pop culture, and casino-style games. For Raffle Creator, the Department said the operator did not meet requirements that allow Arizona nonprofits to conduct lawful raffles and alleged it allowed people under 21 to purchase tickets for prize chances.
The Department said the notified entities are directed to immediately stop all gambling operations and activities in Arizona “whether through mobile applications, online, or otherwise,” and to cease any future illegal gambling in the state. It added that future actions may include criminal charges or civil action against entities, principals, and employees, and that operators “may be subject to a potential award of restitution” and forfeiture of monies acquired due to the alleged conduct.
