The game features Free spins, Cash Spins and an all-new Wheel Bonus feature. The Wheel Bonus is initiated when three or more Cash Orb symbols appear in any position and can award either a cash prize or can trigger one of the variants of the Cash Spins Bonus. Players can also hit three Bonus symbols to trigger Free Spins or shortcut straight to Free Spins or Cash Spins via the HyperBonus feature.

NetGame Entertainment, in keeping with its goal of 20 brand new titles by the end of the year, released Fruit Burst on July 16, 2020. Fruit Burst gives players the chance to squeeze more fun out of their playing experience. Fruit Burst is a modern fruit game with classic gameplay design. It comes with 5 reels and 5 paylines and is a 5X3 slot. With the high RTP at 96.50% and high volatility, players will have a strong chance at massive wins and a real roller-coaster of emotions. This slot features a fairly standard base game for fruit slot fans but is filled to bursting with rare symbols that are responsible for some of the game’s highest paying combinations.

 

Red Tiger has revamped one of the industry’s most popular slots titles with the launch of Gonzo’s Quest. The game, which is among NetEnt’s best ever performers, was the first video slot to use cascading symbols in place of a conventional reel. In a highly anticipated move, Red Tiger has now added a further layer of excitement with the celebrated MegaWays functionality, licensed by Big Time Gaming, which varies the ways to win on every spin. The action-packed title invites players to join a charming Spanish explorer’s quest for El Dorado, where intrepid adventurers could discover wins of up to 20,000x.

 

Pragmatic Play, a leading content provider to the gaming industry, has unveiled its latest release, Street Racer. The 4×5, 40 payline videoslot sees users enter the thrilling world of street racing, with five drivers battling for big prizes on the reels. If three Free Spins symbols hit at the same time, the progressive bonus game is triggered where players can choose one driver symbol to start their spins. Every time three Free Game symbols land during the bonus round, the player levels up, gaining more Free Spins and transforming the driver symbols on the reels to give them the opportunity to accelerate to 2,000x their stake.

 

Yggdrasil, the innovative online gaming solutions provider, has opened the doors on its latest thrilling hit, Vault of Fortune. This is the first game developed using Yggdrasil’s disruptive technology solution, GATI (Game Adaptation Tool & Interface), a completely new game development and distribution solution that is powering YG Franchise and the YG Masters programme. The 5×3, 20 pay lines title is set in a warehouse crammed with lost artefacts and riches, as players hunt through boxes full of valuable goods. Vault of Fortune features cascading wins, with every winning symbol removed making spaces for more boxes to drop down, potentially leading to even more wins.

 

Play’n GO have released their latest title into the market, the wildlife-themed slot Win-a-Beest. Win-a-Beest is a payways slot set in the plains of Africa and is a new spin on the classic Buffalo-style games enjoyed since the golden age of casino. The slot is played on a 2-4-4-4-2 diamond grid and focuses on the Wildebeest, an animal native to the continent. The Wildebeest serves as a ‘super-symbol’; it’s the most valuable icon in a game featuring a very strong paytable, and only needs two-of-a-kind to payout instead of three. The game’s features all revolve around this super-symbol with the first two, Beest Mode and Beest Mode spins, only featuring the Wildebeest, Wild and Scatter symbols on the reels, to provide more robust wins on the grid; while Stampeding Spins gives players more access to Beest Mode.

OKTO destaca el crecimiento de nuevos apostadores en Argentina rumbo al Mundial 2026

Published

on

okto-destaca-el-crecimiento-de-nuevos-apostadores-en-argentina-rumbo-al-mundial-2026

La Copa Mundial de la FIFA 2026 se perfila como el mayor evento de apuestas que la industria haya visto, no solo por el formato ampliado del torneo, sino porque el perfil del apostador ha cambiado fundamentalmente desde Qatar 2022.

Una encuesta ealizada por OKTO PAYMENTS, el proveedor líder de servicios de pago diseñado para el comercio digital de alto rendimiento, revela que la próxima ola de crecimiento de las apuestas en Argentina estará impulsada por usuarios casuales, primerizos y altamente sensibles a la experiencia, lo que genera tanto una gran oportunidad de adquisición como un importante desafío operativo para los operadores de iGaming.

En 2022, la Copa del Mundo se disputó durante la madrugada y las primeras horas de la mañana en los husos horarios sudamericanos, con transmisiones concentradas en la televisión lineal y un mercado de apuestas fragmentado donde las transferencias bancarias y las tarjetas de crédito eran los métodos de pago dominantes.

En 2026, los partidos se emitirán en horario prime time, con cobertura multiplataforma y alianzas oficiales con YouTube y TikTok.

El impacto comercial de este año podría ser significativo. Según un estudio del banco multinacional británico Barclays, el Mundial de Qatar 2022 generó 35.000 millones de dólares en apuestas deportivas. Esta cifra fue un 65 % superior a la registrada en Rusia 2018.

Las proyecciones para 2026 son, naturalmente, aún mayores, según los analistas de mercado.

Este crecimiento se está produciendo en toda la región, aunque a diferentes velocidades: mientras Brasil reguló el sector e implementó sus normativas en 2025, Argentina ha  avanzado de forma más gradual en la creación de marcos legales para las apuestas deportivas.

Sin embargo, según la encuesta, el cambio más importante podría venir del comportamiento del consumidor, incluso más allá del aspecto regulatorio.

Casi la mitad de los consumidores encuestados en la región (43,8%) afirma que normalmente no realiza apuestas, pero planea hacer una excepción durante el Mundial.

Este apostador ocasional es predominantemente femenino, ya que el 57% de las mujeres encuestadas indicó que solo apostará durante el torneo, y además tiende a tener más de 35 años.

Cuanto mayor es el grupo etario, mayor es la proporción de consumidores que planea apostar exclusivamente durante la Copa del Mundo: entre los mayores de 56 años, la cifra alcanza el 57,1%.

“La Copa del Mundo crea un entorno completamente diferente para la adquisición de usuarios por parte de los operadores”, afirma André Boesing, gerente general de OKTO para el Cono Sur.

“Una gran parte del volumen de apuestas en 2026 provendrá de usuarios que interactúan con una plataforma de apuestas deportivas por primera vez.

Evaluarán toda la experiencia de la plataforma —registro, velocidad de depósito, verificación y retiros— en cuestión de segundos”.

Un fan argentino sabe exactamente lo que significa ganar algo que parecía perdido.

En los últimos 40 minutos de la final del Mundial 2022, Argentina ganó, sufrió el empate, volvió a ponerse arriba y nuevamente empate, incluso estuvo cerca de perderlo (de no ser por aquella atajada salvadora del arquero argentino).

Luego llegaron los penales, más de 20 minutos de tensión, y el alivio solo llegó con el penal final de Montiel. Ese día, nadie apagó el televisor. Nadie se fue.

El resultado valió cada segundo de sufrimiento.

Cobrar una apuesta ganadora también vale la pena, pero ahí termina la tolerancia.

Ese jugador que acaba de vivir toda esa intensidad no quiere atravesar otro proceso que lo haga esperar. Cada minuto de demora para retirar sus ganancias se convierte en el punto máximo de frustración con la plataforma.

La encuesta también destaca la creciente importancia del comportamiento de apuestas en tiempo real. Casi la mitad de los encuestados (42,3%) afirma que espera momentos clave durante el partido —como penales, revisiones VAR o tarjetas rojas— antes de realizar una apuesta.

Al mismo tiempo, más de un 50% asegura que planea apostar por Argentina independientemente de las cuotas, generando picos altamente predecibles de tráfico y volumen de transacciones durante los partidos de la selección nacional.

Esto reduce significativamente la ventana operativa para los operadores.

Es poco probable que un apostador que reacciona a un evento en vivo espere largos procesos de KYC, depósitos demorados o experiencias lentas de retiro.

El impulso emocional del partido queda directamente ligado al rendimiento de los pagos.

Los fanáticos pueden tolerar esperar el anuncio de una alineación o el desenlace dramático de un partido.

Lo que no tolerarán es esperar para acceder a sus ganancias.

El aumento esperado en la actividad de apuestas también trae consigo un desafío paralelo.

Más del 70% de los operadores encuestados reporta incrementos significativos en el riesgo de fraude durante grandes eventos deportivos, y alrededor del 40% cree que este riesgo será aún mayor durante el Mundial 2026.

La llegada masiva de nuevos usuarios sin historial previo en las plataformas incrementa ese riesgo y, al mismo tiempo, vuelve más críticos los procesos de verificación, ya que los apostadores ocasionales tienen poca tolerancia hacia procedimientos de onboarding extensos.

Casi la mitad de los operadores reconoce que la fricción en estos procesos perjudica activamente las tasas de conversión.

Mientras los operadores se preparan para el ciclo de la Copa Mundial 2026, los resultados refuerzan la creciente importancia de contar con infraestructuras de pago capaces de soportar depósitos y retiros en tiempo real, onboarding sin fricciones, prevención inteligente de fraude y un rendimiento resiliente de las transacciones durante los momentos de mayor demanda de apuestas.

Andre Boesing, gerente general de OKTO para el Cono Sur, afirmó: “La Copa Mundial 2026 no solo será más grande en cantidad de partidos.

También traerá un tipo de usuario que el mercado de apuestas nunca había visto a esta escala: alguien que abrirá una cuenta en una plataforma por primera vez, probablemente durante el entretiempo, desde su celular y sin ninguna paciencia para procesos burocráticos.

Nuestra investigación muestra que alrededor del 40% de los que normalmente no apuestan planea hacer una excepción durante el mundial. Eso cambia por completo lo que la infraestructura necesita ofrecer”.

OKTO PAYMENTS apoya a los comercios con capacidades integradas de pagos, tesorería, banca y liquidez, diseñadas para ayudar a los operadores a maximizar la conversión, simplificar operaciones y escalar de manera confiable durante eventos deportivos globales de alta demanda y más allá.

He will work closely with Yaspa’s recently bolstered US and global commercial leadership teams to scale strategic partnerships and market adoption.

Fears brings more than 18 years of specialised experience spanning payments, fintech, SaaS, and AML compliance specific to the gaming industry.

Throughout his career, he has built a reputation for aligning emerging technologies with practical commercial outcomes.

Prior to joining Yaspa, Fears held senior leadership positions at prominent industry organisations including Kinectify, First Data Corporation, Glory Global Solutions, DiTronics Financial Services, NEXGEN Technology, and CASINOMONEY.

Notably, at Kinectify, he played a key role in expanding the adoption of AI-driven AML and KYC solutions purpose-built for the casino industry. Fears is also a veteran of the United States Air Force.
