BGaming studio is delighted to share the results of 2021, which has become the most successful for the iGaming provider since its inception. The data presented in the article reflects the statistics of the entire past year. 

BGaming in 2021: x2 overall growth and crypto focus

Taking stocks of 2021, BGaming studio is delighted to announce that it has doubled its GGR, bets, and bets count over the past year compared to the previous one. This also includes x1,25 crypto growth. 

One of the reasons for such good results is that BGaming obtained the MGA licence and entered the LATAM market, significantly increasing the number of partners. At the end of 2020, the studio was presented in 405 online casinos, whereas one year later, the list of partners extended to 709, which means 175% growth a year. A significant share of them is fast-growing crypto projects, which are in demand among players due to the popularity of digital currencies. Being the world’s first iGaming provider to support cryptocurrencies, BGaming still follows this worldwide trend. 

“There is a good saying: We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are. So our growth is determined by our team (which, by the way, we also doubled in size) and our ability to be flexible and adjust ourselves and our flows according to what we have right here right now. The quality of our internal communication and what we air into the market is getting more efficient and stronger – that is how I would determine our growth”, highlighted Marina Ostrovtsova, Executive Director at BGaming.

 

Portfolio review: mix of innovations

Having added 11 new slots to its portfolio, BGaming also included new mechanics presented in the first refilling reels slot Bonanza Billion and the first multiplayer crash game Space XY. Moreover, the most popular title in the BGaming lineup Elvis Frog in Vegas, continued in the Aloha King Elvis slot. 

At the same time, Fruit Million, released in December 2020, has shown the fastest growth multiplying its results by 13 in 2021. The concept of a “shapeshifter” slot changing its skin to every festive holiday attracts players and experts. BGaming has been shortlisted for GGA and IGA awards for this non-standard game solution. 

The Fruit Million slot became the source of inspiration and branched out into a new type of product called Brand Exclusive slots. BGaming has presented a new approach to creating branded titles based on thorough and quick customization. As a result, the studio has produced 32 custom slots for famous brands such as Pin-Up, Stake, Vbet, BC.Game, Parimatch, and others.

But not only new games were at the top. Thus, a reputable online casino, Bitstarz announced Elvis Frog in Vegas, and Aztec Magic Deluxe slots were the most played in 2021. Elvis Frog in Vegas is also among the top 5 games of the SOFTSWISS the Game Aggregator. 

“I believe our success is closely tightened to the ability of the BGaming team to cherish the entertainment needs and desires of players in general and at the same time embrace the partners’ needs in being outstanding and exclusive and delivering the best and unique experience to their players”, commented Kate Puteiko, CS Marketing Manager at BGaming.

 

New year – new solutions

The year 2022 is considered to be even more innovative for BGaming. In addition to entering new markets (mainly Asian and African) and obtaining new licenses, the studio is going to implement a jackpot system and look for new crypto solutions.

“The most important thing we learned in 2021 is that we know what to do to grow faster. The year 2022 is promising for the studio. BGaming will keep developing its lineup to offer players a diverse portfolio of engaging titles. Also, we see that crypto projects have become an integral part of online gambling. So we strive to keep abreast of this trend by offering new products such as Space XY” summarised Alexandr Shavel, Head of Business Development Department at BGaming.

 

BGaming is a fast-growing game provider converting gambling into gaming. Thanks to an expert team and a player-driven approach, the studio creates innovative and engaging products featured on reputable platforms and 700+ online casinos worldwide. BGaming is the world’s first to support cryptocurrencies and offer Provably Fair games. Today the brand’s portfolio includes 70+ products with HD graphics and a clear user interface for every device.

South Africa is once again positioning itself as a leader in ethical gambling practices, with the upcoming Responsible Gambling Summit 2025 set to take place on 13–14 November 2025 at Emperors Palace in Kempton Park, Gauteng. This landmark event will gather international experts, regulators, and industry professionals to address the most pressing challenges in responsible gambling across Africa.

Hosted by the South African Responsible Gambling Foundation (SARGF) in collaboration with major regulatory bodies such as the National Gambling Board, Eastern Cape Gambling Board, and Western Cape Gambling and Racing Board, the summit aims to drive forward an evidence-based, solutions-focused agenda that ensures gambling growth does not come at the cost of public well-being.

As South Africa continues to see rising participation in both land-based and gambling online, the summit is timely. It will tackle issues ranging from technological safeguards and public health integration, to policy harmonisation and vulnerable population protection.

Advocating for Safer Online Gambling

As South Africa strengthens its role in setting responsible gambling standards, SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za remains at the forefront of this effort in the online casino space. Our portal is more than a online casino listing site — it is a trusted source of expert advice, consumer guidance, and responsible gambling advocacy.

Since our inception, we have maintained a clear policy: we only recommend licensed, regulated casinos in south africa that adhere to strict player protection measures. These include transparent terms, fair bonus practices, and built-in tools such as deposit limits, time-outs, and self-exclusion options.

“The online gambling landscape in South Africa is growing rapidly,” says a spokesperson for SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za. “But with growth comes responsibility. Our mission is to ensure players have access to safe, ethical gambling environments. We support the goals of the Responsible Gambling Summit and encourage every operator to prioritise the welfare of their players.”

Practical Frameworks for Change

The Responsible Gambling Summit 2025 will focus on seven key thematic areas:

  • Understanding gambling behaviour and disorders through science-led approaches.
  • Overcoming barriers to effective policy implementation, including gaps in education and enforcement.
  • Leveraging technology, such as AI-driven risk detection and real-time player monitoring.
  • Adopting global regulatory best practices tailored to South African realities.
  • Protecting at-risk individuals and communities, especially youth and those in lower-income brackets.
  • Educating the public on the risks of gambling and how to stay safe.
  • Building international networks to ensure future readiness and consistency across borders.

Each session is designed to lead to real-world outcomes, with progress monitored and reported biennially. This commitment to transparency aligns with broader calls for industry-wide accountability.

How Players Can Gamble Responsibly

Whether you’re new to online casinos or an experienced player, here are some essential responsible gambling tips:

  • Treat gambling as entertainment, not a way to make money.
  • Set a time limit before you start and stick to it.
  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
  • Avoid playing when you are upset, stressed, or intoxicated.
  • Use built-in responsible gaming tools provided by licensed operators.
  • Keep track of your play history and regularly review your habits.
  • Seek help if gambling is no longer fun, or if it begins to impact your personal life.

At SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za, we make these practices easier by highlighting casinos that offer responsible gambling features as part of our review process. Each recommended site undergoes a thorough evaluation based on licensing, fairness, transparency, and player protection standards.

Our Commitment to the South African Gambling Community

With a growing base of South African users, SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za plays an important educational role in the online gambling space. Our platform offers in-depth guides, news updates, free bonus casinos, free spins casinos  and strategy articles designed to help players make informed decisions.

We actively follow developments in gambling regulation and work to ensure our listings are in line with the latest responsible gambling initiatives. As the conversation around ethical gambling evolves, so does our content — reflecting the high standards that South African players deserve.

South Africa’s leadership in responsible gambling sets a high standard not just for the continent, but for the global industry. By playing at casinos that are transparent, regulated, and committed to safety — such as those featured on SouthAfricanCasinos.co.za — players can enjoy the entertainment of gambling while staying in control.

HIPTHER is thrilled to announce the official networking and social venues for the 2025 edition of the MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit, taking place on 27–28 May in Vilnius, Lithuania. With three nights of curated gatherings designed to foster connection and celebration, the summit experience is as much about meaningful encounters as it is about cutting-edge insights.

This year’s networking activities will offer attendees a perfect balance of professional engagement and relaxed atmosphere – true to HIPTHER’s signature style of blending business with warmth and hospitality.

Day 0 – 26 May: The Welcome Meet

The networking begins on the evening before the official conference, as attendees gather for a warm and informal kick-off at Piano Man Bar, a cozy local favorite in the heart of Vilnius. From 18:00 to 22:00, guests will be welcomed into a laid-back atmosphere that sets the tone for the days ahead – whether reconnecting with familiar faces or raising a glass with new ones. The Welcome Meet is all about starting the summit in a relaxed style that fosters connection: with stories, laughter, and the kind of conversations that only happen when the pressure’s off.

Day 1 – 27 May: Evening Social Gathering & BSG Awards Ceremony

On the first official conference evening, the networking continues with a celebratory gathering at Jazz Cellar 11, one of Vilnius’ most atmospheric live music venues. Kicking off at 19:45 and continuing late into the night, the event will feature the 2025 BSG Awards Ceremony, honoring excellence across the Baltic and Scandinavian gaming sectors. With HIPTHER’s well-known sense of timing, the ceremony will be brief and to the point, allowing more time for informal exchanges, smooth jazz, and a relaxed yet elegant ambiance perfect for deepening connections.

Day 2 – 28 May: Closing Party

The final evening of the summit concludes in style with the Closing Party at Invino Vilnius, a refined wine bar located in the historic center of the city. Join us for an unforgettable evening, where wine flows, conversations spark, and the energy carries on into the night. Enjoy carefully selected wines, refreshing drinks, and delicious snacks in one of Vilnius’ coziest and most atmospheric venues. Beginning at 19:30, this farewell gathering will be the ideal evening to wrap up the MARE BALTICUM experience, reflect on new insights, and say “until next time” in true HIPTHER fashion.

Gaming & TECH Insights: A Dual-Stage Theme Built for Depth & Discovery

In addition to the social calendar, HIPTHER is proud to present the two official conference stages that will host both the insightful industry panels and the highly anticipated HIPTHER Academy Workshops:

Compliance & Operations Lab – Sponsored by Pace App
Designed for regulatory minds and operational leaders, this stage will spotlight the frameworks shaping fintech, gaming, and compliance today.

TechXperience Stage – Sponsored by NuxGame
A future-forward space dedicated to innovation and tech-fueled discussions across AI, Blockchain, Fintech, virtual reality, and beyond.

Together, the stages will welcome thought leaders and industry pioneers for meaningful discussions across verticals including iGaming, eSports, Fintech, Blockchain, AI, and more –  while also hosting hands-on workshops from the HIPTHER Academy.

Hands-On Learning with HIPTHER Academy Workshops

Complementing the summit’s dual-stage agenda, the HIPTHER Academy Workshops will empower professionals with actionable tools and strategic insight across critical areas of gaming, tech, and law. Topics include:

  • RegTech in Action: A deep dive into AML and compliance-ready frameworks for fintechs, led by ReguLearn Founder Viktorija Poluektova.
  • Creative Rights, Real Risks: A legal and strategic guide to sponsorships, IP, and branding in gaming and entertainment, delivered by Andrius Gabnys and Jovita Morta Gabne of GABNÉ.GABNYS.
  • Crypto Custody Under MiCA: A practical exploration of crypto regulation, transparency, and consumer protection under MiCA, with Anna Agu of Lex Law Office OU.
  • Neuroshift: A neuroscience-powered workshop on rewiring performance and leadership mindset, facilitated by Maria Loumpourdi of Made From Within.

HIPTHER’s Co-Founder, Zoltan Tuendik, stated about this year’s Social Agenda and Conference Stages “MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit has always been more than just another industry conference. It’s a community-powered experience where people connect, collaborate, and challenge ideas in an environment that feels both professional and personal. With this year’s mix of vibrant networking venues and the dual-stage format designed to fuel serious insight and discovery, we are doubling down on what makes this summit special. We look forward to welcoming everyone to Vilnius for what promises to be our most engaging edition yet.”

The MARE BALTICUM Gaming & TECH Summit 2025 promises a high-impact mix of strategic content and social experiences, creating the ideal setting for learning, inspiration, and building real industry relationships.
