SOFTSWISS Sportsbook Releases Mobile App on Google Play and App Store
SOFTSWISS, a global iGaming software provider with 15 years of experience, releases its first mobile app powered by the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook. The application expands Primobet’s offerings, a licensed operator in Serbia, and is available on Google Play and App Store in the country.
The surge of mobile devices claiming 90% of the Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) in Q1 2024, up from 86% the previous year, underscores the imperative for mobile applications. The newly launched mobile app is strategically positioned to meet this demand, offering an enhanced and accessible gambling experience for players.
For iGaming operators, the mobile app offers several key business advantages:
- Enhanced player trust: In line with stringent industry standards, apps undergo rigorous verification by app stores before publication.
- Diversified risk management: Offering multiple platforms, operators ensure stability in unforeseen circumstances. Splitting the audience across various platforms mitigates risks and ensures consistent engagement, regardless of external factors.
- Improved user comfort: Advanced mechanics and features surpass browser limitations, enhancing the user experience.
- Extended promotional abilities: Push notifications and promotions through digital channels enable direct communication with players.
Alexander Kamenetskiy, Head of SOFTSWISS Sportsbook, congratulated the product team on this achievement, stating: “A year after demonstrating the app, we launched our first project and, what is more important, secured releases on two of the most popular mobile application stores. I am incredibly proud of my team’s dedication and hard work in reaching this milestone. As a tech-innovative company, we look forward to introducing more features and tools to benefit our partners.”
The mobile application is in the final launch stage with another project in Nigeria, which has been published on App Store and has completed the verification process on Google Play.
With the launch of the mobile app, the SOFTSWISS Sportsbook continues to solidify its position in the iGaming industry, providing partners with cutting-edge solutions to enhance their business operations. Additionally, SOFTSWISS has recently released the Sportsbook Budget Calculator, a tool designed to assist operators in managing their budgets effectively.

The American Gaming Association (AGA) estimates that Americans will legally wager $3.1 billion on the men’s and women’s college basketball tournaments this year, up from $2.7 billion in 2024. This growth underscores the expanding legal sports betting market and the growing trust in legal wagering options.
“March Madness is one of the most exciting times in American sports, with fans fired up for both the men’s and women’s NCAA tournaments,” said AGA SVP of Strategic Communications Joe Maloney. “As legal wagering expands across the U.S., more fans than ever have the opportunity to bet legally and responsibly.”
Throughout the month of March, Have A Game Plan.® Bet Responsibly.
campaign will serve important messages to fans, encouraging responsible sports betting. The campaign promotes five key principles:
- Set a Budget: Determine how much you are willing to spend and stick to it.
- Keep it Social: Betting should be a form of entertainment shared with others.
- Know the Odds: Understand the games and your chances of winning.
- Play Legally: Use regulated, legal betting platforms.
- Keep Your Cool: The result of a bet – win or lose – is not an invitation to criticize players, coaches, or officials online or in-person.
“‘Keep Your Cool,’ our newest ‘Have A Game Plan’ principle, is all about keeping betting fun and respecting the game – no matter how unpredictable March Madness becomes,” Maloney added.
Since the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to overturn PASPA in 2018, legal sports betting has expanded to 38 states and Washington, D.C., offering consumers safe and regulated options to engage with their favorite sports. Americans’ support for legal sports betting continues to grow. According to the AGA’s 2024 American Attitudes Survey, 75% of Americans support legal sports wagering in their home state, and 90% view sports betting as an acceptable form of entertainment.
