SOFTSWISS, a global technology company and expert in iGaming software development, unveils the first Sportsbook Network Jackpot. It is a progressive jackpot system designed to unite multiple brands in an exclusive network campaign with a shared prize pool. 

The Sportsbook Network Jackpot debuted with an initial prize pool of 35,000 euro, which will continue to grow as more brands join. All clients working with the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, including those on third-party platforms, are eligible to join the Network.

 

This progressive approach allows operators to offer greater rewards to players without incurring additional individual costs, while improving key metrics such as player engagement, retention, and overall satisfaction. The SOFTSWISS research on Network Jackpots, based on data from casino projects, reveals that the Network Jackpot boosts Average Turnover per User (ATPU) by 27.91%. 

For players, there are no additional costs or efforts required to participate in the Network Jackpot – it offers fair competition and equal chances for everyone to win the grand prize compared to branded jackpots by a single sportsbook.

This concept has already proven successful in the casino segment, where the most recent Prime Network Jackpot campaign launched with a €1,000,000 prize pool. The Sportsbook Network Jackpot aims to replicate this success, bringing the same innovative mechanics to the sports betting sector.

Alexander Kamenetskyi, Head of SOFTSWISS Sportsbook comments: “SOFTSWISS has always been about innovation, which is why we are the first to introduce the Network Jackpot for sportsbooks – a groundbreaking solution for the sportsbook market. We’ve launched this Network Jackpot with a relatively modest starting amount, but we’re confident the prize pool will grow as more clients join. Jackpots are not widely represented in the sportsbook industry, and a solution like the Network Jackpot will surely attract significant attention from clients and players alike.”

“The SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator is a versatile tool that offers multi-level prizes, drops, and the Prime Network Jackpot. The Prime Network Jackpot has been our driving force throughout 2024, experiencing significant growth due to increased interest in this mechanic. We’ve seen remarkable adoption among casino clients in just one year, and I’m eagerly anticipating similar growth within the sportsbook segment,” shares Angelina Stasiuk, Head of Business Line at SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator. 

As the Sportsbook Network Jackpot evolves, SOFTSWISS anticipates rapid growth in participation and prize pools. With this new solution, SOFTSWISS continues to lead the way in creating effective and scalable engagement tools for the iGaming industry.

The SOFTSWISS team will be available to discuss partnerships at the first major iGaming event of 2025, ICE Barcelona, taking place on 20–22 January, at stand 2G42.

The Brains Behind Predictive Fraud: How Frogo Turns Risk into Growth

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Fraud is evolving fast and businesses need more than reactive tools – they need a partner that can predict, prevent and adapt in real time. Frogo, the all-in-one fraud prevention platform, RedCore’s brand, is doing exactly that. From device fingerprinting and AI-powered scoring engines to graph-based forensic tools, Frogo empowers businesses to reduce losses, streamline processes and grow with confidence.

We spoke with Maksym Tkach, CTO at Frogo, about the company’s approach to fraud prevention, model management, transparency and how it’s preparing for next-generation threats.

 

How does Frogo ensure transparency and auditability while running a scoring engine and how do you balance that with real-time performance?

Transparency and speed don’t have to be at odds, we achieve this through careful architecture design. Every decision our system makes is fully traceable. If a transaction is flagged, we don’t just provide a score. We log the full context: the specific policy executed, all input variables and features and human-readable reasons that explain exactly which triggers were activated.

Yet, detailed logging doesn’t slow down the process. Our core decisioning engine responds in milliseconds, while the full audit details are published asynchronously to a message bus and stored separately. This ensures our partners get immediate responses without compromising traceability for our analysts.

How does Frogo manage model drift and concept drift across multiple fraud domains? What strategies ensure seamless retraining or evolution of your models?

Fraud is constantly evolving, so our system must adapt. We take a multi-layered approach:

Drift Detection: We monitor incoming data for inconsistencies, leverage anomaly detection within our rule engine and actively use partner feedback to identify potential issues early.

Seamless Retraining: When a model needs updating, we follow a ‘champion-challenger’ approach. The challenger model is backtested against historical data, shadow-tested in live traffic without affecting decisions and only promoted after proving its superiority.

This structured process allows us to maintain performance, adapt to new threats and minimize any impact on our partners’ operations.

In what ways does Frogo support explainable appeals or reversals? Is there a rollback mechanism?

We believe partners should feel empowered, not constrained by a black box. Every risk decision comes with a detailed, human-readable breakdown of the triggers and scores, forming the basis for appeals.

For reversals:

Case-by-Case: Our FinalReview API lets partners override individual false positives, while feeding back critical ground-truth for future improvements.
Policy Rollbacks: Partners can instantly disable underperforming triggers through our back-office control panel. Every action is fully logged, ensuring transparency and accountability.

As quantum computing and encrypted data processing gain prominence, how is Frogo preparing for next-gen fraud schemes?

We approach next-generation threats proactively.

Quantum Readiness: Our system is crypto-agile – we can swap in quantum-resistant algorithms quickly. Strong encryption, network segmentation and partner-dedicated accounts add layers of protection.
Encrypted Data Processing: We offer flexibility depending on partner needs. Privacy-conscious partners can provide hashed depersonalised data, allowing us to detect fraud without ever getting access to sensitive information.

This dual approach keeps us ahead of evolving threats while respecting privacy and compliance requirements.

Frogo is not just about stopping fraud – it’s about turning risk into growth. By combining real-time automation, AI intelligence and deep forensic capabilities, the platform helps businesses reduce losses, streamline operations and deliver seamless experiences for legitimate users.

If you want to see Frogo in action and explore how the platform can safeguard your business while driving growth, join Maksym Tkach and the Frogo team at SiGMA, November 4-6, booth #1047.

Leap into safety and catch the risks before they catch you.

Altenar has extended its longstanding partnership with Nordplay Group to support the launch of the Onerush brand in Sweden with its award-winning sportsbook technology.

Through Altenar’s fully-managed sportsbook solution, including a vast number of customisable features, 24/7 customer support and advanced reporting tools, the operator is now in a strong position to succeed in the market from launch.

The deal is an extension of an existing partnership which has seen Altenar’s sportsbook being used to great success by the Frank & Fred and Jubla brands in Sweden.

The agreement demonstrates Altenar’s strength as a long-term partner with expertise to help new entrants localise and stay a step ahead when attracting new audiences.

Sam Hill, Sales Director at Altenar, said: “We’re delighted to launch the Onerush brand in another positive step in what is already a successful partnership with their team and brands.

“Our best-in-class sportsbook offering and features will allow Onerush to differentiate their product offering from the competition and establish themselves as a market leader and provide the best user experience to their customers.”

Nicolas Lund, COO at Nordplay Group, said: “In Altenar we’ve found a trusted and reliable partner, supporting a wider offering on several of our brands. It’s therefore been a natural choice to bring them onboard for our latest brand Onerush in Sweden.

“We’re excited and hopeful to see Onerush well received by the Swedish market and together with Altenar will continue to challenge the mainstream to deliver a leading offering with lower friction and more entertaining experiences.”
