iGaming Leader Soft2Bet Showcases MEGA Solutions to the US Market at NEXT Summit New York

Published

on

Soft2Bet, a leading B2B casino and sportsbook platform provider, made its forthcoming U.S. launch known last week at NEXT.io’s premier North American iGaming and Sports Betting Summit, NEXT Summit New York 2024. At the event, which was attended by some of the biggest names in the industry, Soft2Bet showed off its Motivational Engineering Gaming Application (MEGA) solutions and met with some of the biggest industry players in the United States.

Ahead of Soft2Bet’s expected New Jersey license later this year, members of the team including David Yatom Hay, General Council; Martin Collins, Chief Business Development Officer; and Ohad Straschnov, Senior Compliance Director, met with operators, regulators, and potential partners who expressed great interest in bringing MEGA solutions to the U.S.

“It was great to get some facetime with those helping us bring our offering to the States,” said Yatom. “Since we are first bringing our B2C product into the state as a proof of concept for future B2B partners, there seems to be quite a bit of excitement around seeing how our MEGA solutions and localization features will translate in the US.”

On Wednesday March 6, Collins participated in a fireside chat with Business Insider Media Editor Ashley Rodriguez. The presentation, titled Redefining the North American Online Gambling Experience, covered the need for operators to switch strategies from heavily investing in acquisition and promotional activity, to focusing more on better ROI tech innovations, such as MEGA, which boost retention and screen time.

“We believe proper gamification can be a true game changer within this market,” said Collins. “It’s not your traditional tournaments and awards we’ve seen across the market the last five to ten years. Within the industry, the user experience is fairly weak compared to other verticals, so we looked at what’s offering the best customer experience, and that’s coming from casual gaming. This is why we started developing solutions that match these incredibly engaging user experiences.”

“So it’s essentially trying to recreate the experience you’d find in free mobile games and use that to keep people in the ecosystem and keep them coming back,” replied Rodriguez.

Following a successful NEXT Summit, Soft2Bet will once again be returning to the U.S. to showcase its new innovations and meet with partners in the market at SBC Summit North America from May 8 to 9, 2024. Martin Collins will be presenting a keynote at the iGaming stage on May 8 at 2:40 p.m.
