SOFTSWISS Launches the First Sportsbook Network Jackpot
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.

Behind the Gloves
GR8 Tech Delivers Heavyweight Performance at SiGMA Central Europe 2025
Reading Time: 2 minutes
GR8 Tech stepped into SiGMA Central Europe (November 3–6, Rome) and left the ring with the strongest sales performance on record. Fueled by the boxing-themed Platform for Champions experience, the collaboration with Behind The Gloves, and demos of ULTIM8 Sportsbook, the Heavyweight Club energy translated directly into standout sales performance.
Platform for Champions, Proven in the Arena
Over three days, GR8 Tech logged 140 qualified meetings, which included sessions with existing clients that opened new opportunities and first-time conversations with operators and potential clients. The team also closed a deal on day 3 and advanced a high-potential MENA operator to late-stage discussions.
“SiGMA was incredibly successful for GR8 Tech, which confirms we’re on the right track and proves how our Platform for Champions stands out in a crowded field. Our Heavyweight Lounge became the meeting place for operators who want to go deep on strategy, margins, and market moves with purposeful, energetic, outcome-focused conversations,” said Sergey Ghazaryan, Chief Revenue Officer at GR8 Tech.
SiGMA Central Europe showcased the Heavyweight Club philosophy, inspired by GR8 Tech’s partnership with Ready To Fight by Oleksandr Usyk: champions create champions. By pairing athlete-grade preparation with operator-grade technology, GR8 Tech has grown a community of operators aligned by a code: launch first, perform under pressure, and compound advantage through the right partner.
Big Stage Energy from Behind The Gloves Experience
During the three-day conference, over 50 visitors participated in 15-minute pad-work sessions led by Lee McFarland, a British military veteran and iGaming consultant. The short power workouts transformed the GR8 Tech stand into a hub of energy that converted into productive business conversations.
“Performance is something you live, so we built an environment where attendees could experience it. Bringing Behind The Gloves to our booth embodied the discipline and drive we build into our technology,” said Yevhen Krazhan, Chief Sales Officer at GR8 Tech.
GR8 Tech’s team left Rome with disciplined follow-through and a full calendar of next steps. The Lounge and “Behind The Gloves” drove high-quality conversations, and the company will continue to improve the experience for champions at future events.

Hula Moolah
SlotMatrix turns up the heat with Powderkeg Studios’ Hula Moolah
Reading Time: < 1 minute
SlotMatrix, the world’s largest casino aggregator, is bringing the fire with the launch of Hula Moolah, an explosive new slot from Powderkeg Studios.
Set in a tropical paradise where Tiki gods rule and volcanoes erupt, Hula Moolah turns every spin into a molten-hot chance to win. The game’s centrepiece is the Hold & Spin Feature, ignited when the vibrant Tiki Wilds leap into the volcano.
The wins from the triggering spin become lava that fuels the feature, heating up rewards to new, fiery levels.
Tiki Sacrifices can appear at any time to boost adjacent multipliers and reset the number of spins, creating a chain reaction of escalating rewards. Each sacrifice upgrades nearby Lava Pools, with multipliers rising up to 25x, offering explosive potential with every spin.
The excitement continues with the Free Spin Bonus, where more Tiki Wilds join the reels to increase the odds of triggering Hold & Spin. Landing 3, 4, or 5 Bonus symbols awards up to 12 Free Spins, with retriggers keeping the heat alive.
Hula Moolah is exclusively distributed via SlotMatrix, and as with all SlotMatrix exclusive titles, is enhanced by EveryMatrix’s proprietary gamification tools, including free spins and leaderboards.
The slot can also be seamlessly integrated with EngageSuite, the all-in-one player loyalty solution.
Stephen Orchard, Head of Commercial Operations, SlotMatrix, said: “Powderkeg Studios outdid themselves with this one. Hula Moolah is pure fire. A high-impact game that blends immersive design with thrilling mechanics that deliver real intensity, making this one of our most explosive titles yet.”
Jesper Gawell, COO & CMO, Supremeland Gaming, added: “We are proud to support Powderkeg Studios in bringing Hula Moolah to life exclusively with SlotMatrix. This partnership lets us focus on bold concepts and premium execution. SlotMatrix provides the right tools to turn great games into hits.”
