SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator Enhances its Portfolio with BetGames
The SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator is ready to unveil its strategic partnership with BetGames, a prominent provider of live dealer betting products. This collaboration signifies a new milestone for both companies, focusing on elevating player experiences and expanding their global presence.
In keeping with its commitment to providing diverse gaming content for clients and their players, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator unrolls access to an enriched collection of live dealer betting games through this new partnership. This move aligns with the results of a recent survey, which revealed that a diverse portfolio of games and providers is a crucial functional characteristic for 73% of clients when selecting an iGaming supplier. As a result, this cooperation represents a seamless step forward in meeting client demands.
Operators leveraging SOFTSWISS’ aggregated content can now access BetGames’ product lineup, featuring standout titles like War of Bets, the flagship Lotto range, and the newly introduced Instant Lucky 7. The new partner also offers a collection of engagement tools, including ‘Cashback’ and ‘Bonus’ options, enabling players to reclaim a portion of their wagers and providing enhanced opportunities for winning. The dedication to crafting their own player engagement tools is a trait BetGames shares with the Game Aggregator, which introduced its Tournament Tool earlier this year. The partners are united by their common mission to enhance the gaming experience, creating a dynamic winning synergy.
Tatyana Kaminskaya, Head of SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, comments: “This integration will expand the content choices available in our clients’ casinos and deliver an excellent gaming experience with live-dealer betting games for players. We are confident that the collaboration between the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator and BetGames will prove mutually beneficial for both partners.”
Yury Mikhaylov, VP CIS at BetGames, shares: “Through this collaboration, we aim to set new industry benchmarks by integrating our full suite of games with the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, and bring an exceptional gaming experience to players worldwide. This deal is a great fit for both parties, not only owing to our leading positions in the respective fields, but also due to the alignment of our growth plans.”
The Game Aggregator serves as a content hub within the SOFTSWISS product ecosystem, bringing together 16,000+ games from over 190 providers. It is an award-winning product, recognised as the Aggregator Platform of the Year at the EGR B2B Awards two years in a row, in 2022 and 2023. SOFTSWISS will showcase the product at stand CG58 during SBC Summit Barcelona, the esteemed international iGaming event, which will take place on 19–21 October 2023.

eCOGRA Approved to Operate in Arizona, Indiana and Panama
eCOGRA, a leading international authority in Testing, Inspection and Certification services for the iGaming industry, has secured new regulatory approvals across three key jurisdictions: Arizona, Indiana and Panama. With these developments, eCOGRA strengthens its position in the U.S. and Latin American markets, offering excellence in compliance through their Quality, Speed, and Service promise.
This strategic expansion allows eCOGRA to conduct independent compliance audits and certification services in each region, addressing the growing demand for rigorous regulatory oversight in the fast-evolving global iGaming industry.
Securing approval in Arizona, where eCOGRA has now been licensed as an Event Wagering Ancillary Supplier, enables the International Testing Laboratory (ITL) to audit event wagering licensees in line with Arizona’s expanding regulatory landscape. Indiana, which introduced online sports betting in September 2019, has authorised eCOGRA to perform regulatory compliance audits, providing licensed operators with crucial assurance in meeting the state’s high standards.
In Panama, the Board of Gaming Control officially recognised eCOGRA as an Authorised Entity for Compliance Certification, specifically for slot machines and gaming software. This endorsement reinforces eCOGRA’s role as a trusted partner for operators seeking to meet stringent regulatory requirements in Latin America’s emerging iGaming sector.
“Our recent approvals in Indiana, Arizona, and Panama underline our dedication to continually expand our offering, to support our growing portfolio of clients with their global growth plans. We are committed to ensuring that we bring the same quality, speed and service that marks us out to both our clients and regulators in these dynamic markets,” said Will Shuckburgh, Group CEO of eCOGRA.
Bradley Khoury, Chief Technology Officer at eCOGRA, said: “Securing licensure as an Event Wagering Ancillary Supplier in Arizona and an Authorised Entity in Panama underscores our dedication to supporting responsible and sustainable iGaming operations. We are committed to driving trust and accountability within the industry by providing compliance solutions that uphold the highest standards.”

Goa Introduces an Entirely Online Lottery Platform
In a move towards modernising India’s lottery sector, the state of Goa has introduced an entirely online lottery platform, sanctioned by the Directorate of Small Savings and Lotteries. This initiative, known as Great Goa Games, aims to bring transparency and convenience to an industry that has long grappled with allegations of mismanagement and fraud.
Ticket sales commenced Monday, with the inaugural draw set for Sunday. Rhiti Group, led by founder Arun Pandey, was granted the license to operate and market the platform. “Our mission is to democratize opportunities through technology,” Pandey stated, emphasizing the secure and user-friendly nature of the app-based system.
Goa government official Narayan Gad lauded the move as a step forward for the Indian lottery sector. “With our online lottery streamlining processes through technology, we are setting a new standard in the lottery industry,” Gad remarked. “The technology-based product will enhance transparency and ensure improved monitoring and regulation of operations.”
This development follows new rules governing online lotteries, introduced by the Goa directorate in February 2023. Currently, 13 states in India, including Goa, allow lottery games, though others have banned them due to concerns over gambling addiction and operational irregularities.
