The SOFTSWISS Group Crosses the 1000 Employee Mark
SOFTSWISS is proud to announce the expansion of its team to a total of over 1000 employees. The rapid growth and development of the company requires qualified professionals who can strengthen the brand’s position as a leader in iGaming. As a result, the SOFTSWISS family has doubled since the start of 2021.
The company’s growth is closely linked to several key events that took place in the past year. First of all it is worth mentioning that in 2021 SOFTSWISS expanded its geographical representation by opening new offices in Poland and Georgia. At the moment about 80% of all employees are from Belarus, but the company is actively recruiting professionals from other regions and encouraging diversity.
Belarus (Minsk) currently tops the list of countries from which the SOFTSWISS team works. It is followed in descending order by Russia, Ukraine, Poland and Georgia. SOFTSWISS employees can also be found working remotely from Austria, Bali, Brazil, Germany, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Nigeria, Portugal, Serbia and Vietnam.
The launch and promotion of new products also had a significant impact on the rapid growth of SOFTSWISS. Although the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook was launched in December 2020, active product promotion occurred throughout 2021. During this time, the Sportsbook platform team more than tripled in size. Also in 2021, SOFTSWISS unveiled the Jackpot Aggregator, a unique solution for organising and managing jackpot campaigns.
Managed Services was one of the fastest growing teams across the entire SOFTSWISS brand. Over the year, they grew by 60%: from 90 people in January to 150+ in December. These changes have had a positive impact on the quality of work, which is confirmed by the fact that Managed Services was shortlisted for the prestigious EGR award.
“This December SOFTSWISS passed an important milestone in its development. Back in January there were just over 500 of us – now we are celebrating the 1,000 people threshold. This figure brings together smart, bright, courageous people who share the principles of respect, freedom and equality both in work and in everyday life. We have come together to create the best iGaming products and achieve common goals. I am happy to be a part of this big team and I thank everyone at SOFTSWISS for their trust and work!” – commented Ivan Montik, Founder of SOFTSWISS.

Bacta commissioned research shows huge support for seaside arcades led by Gen Z

The findings of independent research conducted by Censuswide among a sample of 2,000 UK Nationally representative respondents aged 16+ shows that Generation Z has fallen in love with the seaside arcades so popular with their grandparents.
The research reveals that 8 in 10 respondents (81 percent) view seaside arcades as being part of British culture and it is young Brits that are banging the drum for arcades, with 90 percent of 25–34-year-olds backing their importance.
Despite overwhelming public support from Britain’s younger generations, seaside arcades continue to face a perfect storm of challenges from rising energy and staffing costs, plus the threat of increased taxation as suggested by former Prime Minister Gordon Brown.
72 percent say Government should do more to protect them – with 86 percent of those aged 25-34-years calling for urgent action.
The research findings confirm the central role played by seaside arcades with 72 percent of adults saying they would visit an arcade on a trip to the seaside a figure that rises to 91 percent for 24-34-year-olds.
In terms of providing accessible entertainment 55 percent say that arcades offer great value for money, making them the UK’s most affordable family day out. As a result, 84 percent confirmed they have enjoyed arcades with multiple generations of their family.
The importance of contributions to local economies featured highly in the research paper with 7 in 10 stating that arcades play a key role in regenerating seaside towns, a figure that rises to 85 percent of 18-24-year-olds.
Reflecting on the research findings Joseph Cullis, President of UK trade association, Bacta said: “Britain’s seaside arcades are a vital element of our proud tourism industry, a modern cultural icon, and have been a fun family activity for more than a century.
“It’s brilliant but not surprising to see young people are embracing them with all the enthusiasm of their parents, grandparents and great-grandparents before them.
“At Bacta, we’re fighting to protect our seaside arcades from the threats of rising costs and from those who want to tax them out of existence. We hope that local councillors, MPs and the Treasury will heed the wants and needs of the British people and protect these vital institutions.”
Elliot Ball, who co-owns and runs Clacton Pier with his brother Billy, said other attractions would be at risk if arcades were taxed even more.
“I’m the fifth generation of my family – on both sides – involved in amusement arcades so this is a labour of love” he stated.
“But the threat from the government to raise gambling tax would put at risk a traditional family day out to the seaside. Trips here have been making memories for generations, and it’s great that younger people are finding the same safe, harmless fun on the pier that has been raising a smile and lighting up eyes for years and years.
“We’ve bounced back from the pandemic and the rise of staycations helps, but many of Britain’s most beloved seaside attractions will be put at high risk if gambling taxes rise.”
