How to Diversify Sports Betting Experience? – SOFTSWISS Presents Jackpot Solution for Sportsbook Projects

Published

on

Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

Two innovative and multifunctional products designed by the leading iGaming software provider SOFTSWISS are now going live with a cross-product integration. As a result, the clients who choose the Sportsbook solution get simultaneous access to jackpot campaigns – an effective business tool to assist player acquisition, engagement and retention. 

This step extends the functionality of the sports betting platform, reinforcing it with engaging jackpot mechanics, and continues the line of bonus proposals. The launch of jackpots in the Sportsbook is expected to increase player retention and, therefore, operator revenue, by capturing the audience attention through exciting storylines and new winning options. At the same time, the Jackpot Aggregator extends its reach beyond the online casino ecosystem, unlocking a new dimension of sports betting to grow into. The combination of these powerful experiences is there to boost the performance of N1 Bet, the first online platform to benefit from the new combo. 

To set up a jackpot campaign on the sports betting platform, the operator needs to configure the settings on the both sides:

  • The Sportsbook: to define a list of jackpot participants and bet requirements that players need to meet to join a jackpot campaign
  • The Jackpot Aggregator: to configure the jackpot campaign settings, such as the jackpot pool size, award rules, etc.

The qualifying players will be automatically added to the campaign, getting the chance to hit the jackpot.

Alexander Kamenetskyi, Head of SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, comments on the new integration: “We are proud to present a new integration between the two innovative products, the Sportsbook Platform and the Jackpot Aggregator, which is already in use by the first client. The operator runs the integration with the full support of account managers, and clients themselves can customise the processes in the back office. We are sure this offering will add much value to any iGaming business.”

Aliaksei Douhin, Head of SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, highlights: “This is a new development milestone for our product, and we see the integration coming through in the best possible way. Previously, N1 Bet, the first path breaker of our new integration, used to leverage the Jackpot Aggregator’s functionality to run campaigns on their casino platform to show great player retention results. Now the operator is launching jackpots on their sports betting platform, and we are confident that outstanding results won’t take long to arrive.”

The product heads also note that they are delighted to launch the integration with N1 Bet, highlighting the speed, innovation and ease as the key advantages for the client. The platform players are already exploring the new jackpot functionality and bets, while many exciting features and additions are yet to come. 

The N1 Bet team comments: “We strive to improve our product by complementing it with the best offerings available on the market. We already have the experience of launching jackpot campaigns for our online casino, which boosted player interest and delivered excellent results. We are now introducing jackpots on the side of our sports betting platform, and we are confident that this will help diversify the player gaming experience and increase engagement. We are grateful to the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook and the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator teams for all their hard work and support every step of the way!”

In 2022, SOFTSWISS launched the first cross-product integration between its Sportsbook Platform and the Game Aggregator. This year’s new addition to the already established ecosystem reinforces the SOFTSWISS product offering by extending its reach and functionality, and creates additional value both for operators and players.

  • CSMG will create and operate College Street FighterTM Tour in North America for the 2024-25 academic year
  • College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025
Collegiate Sports Management Group (CSMG) announced today during the kick-off of its Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) Texas presented by McDonald’s that it has joined forces with Capcom to launch the College Street FighterTM Tour during its 2024-25 academic year with the finalists competing at CECC Texas in 2025 throughout its May Madness event. Street FighterTM 6  will join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Overwatch 2®, Rocket League, and VALORANT as part of the official game titles for CECC.
“We are immensely excited to welcome Capcom into the CECC family and provide a path to glory for student athletes to showcase their skills in Street Fighter 6,” said Michael Schreck, Chief Executive Officer for CSMG. “In our fourth year of building May Madness, we continue to listen to our players, coaches and fans on how to make our event more inclusive, and the partnership with Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success.”
“The Street Fighter franchise is a multi-generational and global game series, so it’s important for us to continue to grow that fandom at the collegiate level,” said Michael Larson, Head of Esports at Capcom USA. “CECC continues to set the standard for competition and community, so it’s a natural format for expansion, and we’re eager for College Street Fighter Tour competitors across North America to show off their skills and join us in Texas next year.”
”The vision for the College Street Fighter Tour is a publisher backed esports series that integrates into the existing infrastructure of The Collegiate Esports Commissioners Cup, a bracket style event series that takes place every year and has been coined May Madness. The path to championship includes invitational bids to national and regional level conferences as well as official CECC qualifiers held regionally,” said Angela Bernhard Thomas, Chief Esports Officer for CSMG’s ESPORTSU.
Every college or university from a 2-year or 4-year institution can participate through their conference or through select qualifiers. Wim Stocks will serve as the Commissioner of the College Street Fighter Tour and bring his 20 years of experience in college esports to create a dynamic and engaging format of competitive gaming.
“Since the launch of Street Fighter 6 in June of ’23, it is clear the rich legacy of Street Fighter is stronger than ever and helping lift the fighting game community to still greater heights,” said Stocks. “Having a structure now for a national collegiate competitive series, league, and events, Capcom and ESPORTSU are building a phenomenal ecosystem and mechanism for developing up and coming Street Fighter 6 competitors.”
More details on the College Street Fighter Tour will be shared later this year.
CSMG welcomes 84 teams (up from 64 in 2023) this weekend from a record breaking 19 conference champions to the largest scholastic esports festival globally. They will compete at Esports Stadium Arlington on May 3-5 for the chance to hoist one of the coveted trophies. Fans can watch the CECC Texas on ESPORTSU’s Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/esportsu.
CECC Texas 2023 was also recently awarded LAN Event of the Year during the inaugural Scholars Awards in Las Vegas, which are produced in partnership with the Esports Awards.
