Why segment players? Slotegrator’s new report has answers
Personalized, targeted marketing has become a universal business practice — but there’s no universal approach that works for every business. What does it look like for iGaming projects, and where should online casinos and sportsbooks start? Find out in Slotegrator’s new report.
At the end of the day, every business has the same main goal: revenue. In a sector as competitive as online gambling, businesses do everything they can to boost profits.
One of the most effective strategies they can use is personalized marketing. It’s become clear that personalized, targeted marketing is the best way to drive customer engagement, creating a growing base that will keep profits coming in the long term. Slotegrator’s research has found that the foundation of a well-informed, well-designed marketing strategy is player segmentation.
Faruk Aydin, Chief Revenue Officer at Revpanda, Slotegrator’s partner, comments on this topic: “Player segmentation is key to keeping players engaged and loyal in the iGaming world. By diving into the data, we can group players into categories like high rollers, casual gamers, and those at risk of leaving. This lets us create marketing strategies that speak directly to their interests. High rollers, for example, love exclusive VIP programs and personalized rewards, while casual gamers respond well to fun onboarding experiences and regular in-game perks. When players feel understood and valued, they’re more likely to stick around and enjoy their time with us. Going a step further, it’s important to look at what really drives different player groups, beyond just age or location. By understanding their motivations and frustrations, we can craft more personalized and engaging communication.
For instance, our email campaigns can be tailored to offer relevant content and promotions that fit each player’s gaming style. This level of personalization helps build a stronger connection, reduces the chances of them leaving, and turns them into loyal, active players. In the end, player segmentation isn’t just about marketing—it’s about creating a better, more enjoyable experience for everyone.”
Giving players what they want is key to keeping them on your platform, and the best way to do that is careful analysis of their behavior. Aside from basic statistics about player status, like new, active, and churned, a good CRM system can offer more detailed parameters, like how often they play, their average bet, their average deposit, and more. This kind of information can help operators come up with strategies to improve retention rates.
Player segmentation helps operators to:
- Streamline operations: First of all, segmentation saves time by allowing bulk actions and analysis of groups of players by one or more common attributes — meaning less manual work and better-optimized resources.
- Personalize the player experience: Once you’ve pinpointed a player segment’s preferences, you can offer them content and promotional offers they’re more likely to enjoy.
- Organize marketing campaigns: Knowing players preferences helps operators to deliver relevant messages.
- Enhance player retention: Targeted marketing leads to higher retention — personalized loyalty programs and an individualized approach to player support will give players a feeling of being taken care of.
- Build trust: Identifying and protecting vulnerable players by limiting their actions, and adjusting anything that doesn’t work will help create a good reputation for your online casino.
“Segmentation is always happening, whether we realize it or not. It’s important to identify your target audience and include a clear plan in your product development strategy that considers their interests. Knowing who you’re working for makes it easier to create and improve,” notes William Sarto, PR & Marketing Specialist at CasinoRIX.
“Users can be segmented based on clear indicators: where they’re located, how much they deposit (whether they’re VIPs or regular players), and their language preferences. These factors are straightforward and need no further explanation.”
Taking an example of affiliates, CasinoRIX further comments: “As affiliates, our focus is on a personalized approach to enhance the entire player experience. We provide a Personal Manager who is available 24/7 (our own customer support), allowing us to gather real-time feedback from customers and address their specific needs promptly. By analyzing this data, we gain better insights into potential players’ needs and can take proactive steps. We categorize our data based on inquiries, focusing on:
– Bonuses
– Deposit and withdrawal speed and methods
– KYC (Know Your Customer) queries
A personalized approach increases a player’s lifetime value and helps establish loyal relationships.”
User segmentation is a common practice in any business that has to deal with a huge amount of user data. Grouping your users by activity, gender, age, traffic source, payment methods, language, and other parameters, will help you draw conclusions about your business and make data-driven decisions.
Let’s say you find out that you have a group of players under 35 years old that is more active when there is a unique new game out, and prefers to pay with crypto — your possible conclusion might be that you should add more innovative games for your tech-savvy audience, like esports, and send this group an email with announcement.
A new downloadable report from Slotegrator defines four types of segmentation: demographic, geographic, psychographic, and behavioral.
Geographic segmentation groups players by location, demographic segmentation groups them by categories like age or gender, and psychographic segmentation by beliefs and values. Behavioral segmentation, the most effective for online casinos, groups users according to their habits or actions, meaning that everything they do on an online casino platform becomes a basis for operators’ decisions.
Download this report from Slotegrator’s website and learn more about how to segment players according to their status, what they bet on, when and how much they bet, why they play and how loyal they are, and create personalized campaigns and offers to let players know that you care about them.

Q3 2025 financial results: Ten Square Games delivers solid progress in portfolio transformation
Reading Time: 4 minutes
In Q3 2025, Ten Square Games Group recorded 4.4% q/q growth in bookings, reaching PLN 85.0 million, driven by the continued growth of Wings of Heroes and the entire flight simulation segment, as well as the addition of Trophy Hunter to the Group’s portfolio. At the same time, the Group advanced its strategic portfolio transformation by executing the rebuild process in its core titles. During the quarter, Ten Square Games successfully launched Trophy Hunter, which had a positive impact on Group’s bookings, finalized preparations for the global launch of Real Combat Simulator, and initiated work on a new prototype scheduled for market testing in Q4 2025 to broaden the Group’s future potential.
-“The third quarter of 2025 brought clear progress in delivering on the key pillars of our strategy: rebuilding the foundations of our core titles, accelerating the growth of Wings of Heroes, and investing in new projects. The successful launch of Trophy Hunter, combined with the dynamic growth of Wings of Heroes, helped offset weaker performance of our main titles and increase the Group’s total bookings. This shows that our ongoing initiatives are beginning to deliver tangible results.”
– said Andrzej Ilczuk, CEO of Ten Square Games S.A.
Global launch of Trophy Hunter
A major highlight of the quarter was the global launch of Trophy Hunter. The game generated PLN 3.2 million in bookings in its debut quarter, supported by PLN 6.1 million in marketing expenditures, and has maintained attractive retention and monetization metrics justifying continued scaling. Since launch, the Trophy Hunter team has executed an ambitious development roadmap packed with new arenas and features that further strengthen the product and keep players engaged. In Q4 2025, the game will be further expanded with a major new social feature and additional arenas. The new feature is designed to further boost player engagement.
Rebuild of the Group’s two largest titles
A key project in the third quarter of 2025 remained the transformation process of the Group’s two largest titles – Fishing Clash and Hunting Clash. Both teams continued intensive A/B testing aimed at improving player segmentation and the first-time user experience (FTUE), while also implementing a series of technical enhancements to improve game stability and performance.
The main challenge of this process lies in its time-consuming and large-scale nature – each A/B test typically lasts at least three months, and not all of them deliver positive results, often requiring the team to redesign and rerun tests. In addition, the number of tests that can be conducted simultaneously is limited to avoid distorting the results. Ongoing activities may temporarily affect game operations, player experience, and marketing activity levels.
Despite these challenges, a systematic, data-driven approach remains the most effective method to identify the root causes of game performance issues and to implement lasting improvements that can, over time, help restore growth in the Group’s flagship titles.
Scaling Wings of Heroes
In Q3 2025, Wings of Heroes recorded a 33.4% q/q increase in bookings, driven by record marketing investment and new social features that enhanced player engagement. The game’s strong performance, together with the continued stable growth of Real Flight Simulator – one of the most advanced mobile flight simulation games on the market – strengthened the entire segment’s contribution to the Group’s results.
In September 2025, the Real Flight Simulator team launched the Real World Engine, delivering the most comprehensive visual and technical upgrade to date and setting new standards for immersion, realism, and navigational accuracy in a mobile flight simulation.
The systematic development of flight simulation titles and their stable growth help the Ten Square Games Group stabilize overall bookings and partly offset weaker performance in its main titles.
New projects
In Q3 2025, the Group focused on preparing for the global launch of Real Combat Simulator, which took place on October 7, 2025. The title, developed in a subscription-based model, is unique in the mobile market, with no direct competitors in its segment. With this launch, the Ten Square Games Group is testing the potential of the mobile flight combat game segment.
The launch took place without marketing support, and the game is scheduled to be featured on major distribution platforms at the beginning of 2026.
In Q3 2025, the Ten Square Games team worked intensively on a new prototype inspired by the proven gameplay model of Trophy Hunter and built on the Group’s experience from previous projects. The first market test, across two selected markets, will take place in Q4 2025. A decision regarding the further development of the prototype into a full game will be made no earlier than in the first half of 2026.
The project represents an attempt to broaden the Group’s portfolio beyond the segments in which Ten Square Games currently specializes, marking an important step toward greater diversification and long-term growth.
Financial performance
In Q3 2025, the Ten Square Games Group recorded bookings of PLN 85.0 million, representing an increase of 4.4% q/q, primarily driven by Wings of Heroes, Trophy Hunter, and Real Flight Simulator. Adjusted EBITDA decreased to PLN 22.1 million, mainly due to the highest quarterly marketing investment in 2025. The net profit amounted to PLN 17.8 million. Cumulatively for the first nine months of 2025, the Group’s bookings totaled PLN 256.9 million, adjusted EBITDA stood at a strong PLN 79.6 million, and net profit increased by 24.3% y/y to PLN 65.2 million, confirming the financial resilience and efficiency of the Company’s operating model, despite lower overall bookings compared to the previous year.
The share of TSG Store in total bookings amounted to 20.3% in September 2025, reflecting the shift in Group’s portfolio and strong performance of titles without TSG Store integration.
Q4 2025 Focus and Outlook
In the fourth quarter of 2025, Ten Square Games Group will continue to focus on three strategic pillars:
- Rebuilding and optimizing core titles to stabilize performance and rebuild long-term value.
- Supporting the growth of Wings of Heroes and the flight simulation segment through continued product, supported by marketing investments in Wings of Heroes.
- Developing new projects with the potential to diversify and strengthen the Group’s portfolio.
The fourth quarter is traditionally a highly competitive period in digital marketing due to the holiday season. As a result, user acquisition costs are expected to rise, which may temporarily reduce marketing activity in selected titles.
