15 years ago, on 21 July, SOFTSWISS, a leading iGaming software provider, started its path in the industry. As the company celebrates its birthday, it is the perfect moment to reflect on SOFTSWISS breakthroughs that revolutionised iGaming.
Introducing Crypto in Gambling
Back in 2013, SOFTSWISS visionaries were the first to leverage the potential of digital currencies, leading the way for their integration into the iGaming industry. Recent research states that crypto payments represent a long-term trend profoundly influencing the dynamics of online gambling. Namely, in Q1’24, the Crypto Bet Sum demonstrated an over 20% growth year-on-year.
Collecting Richest Game Portfolio
For almost nine years, SOFTSWISS has collected the biggest game portfolio in the industry. Recently, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator has surpassed 23,500 games from over 270 distinct providers. Offering unique player engagement tools, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator powers more than a thousand iGaming brands.
Elevating Service Level
SOFTSWISS has built a comprehensive product ecosystem that enables operators to create an iGaming business of any scale from scratch. The unique blend of technology innovations and exceptional service allowed SOFTSWISS to gain proven client recognition. According to researchers by the world-leading marketing agency Kantar, SOFTSWISS has achieved a 93% customer satisfaction rate for its Game Aggregator and a 91% satisfaction score for Affilka by SOFTSWISS.
Leading Industry Expertise
SOFTSWISS’ profound expertise allowed it to become an industry pioneer in conducting comprehensive research in various iGaming verticals.

Revolutionising iGaming Marketing

Held in Malta, they have made a lasting impact on the discerning iGaming audience and allowed SOFTSWISS to gain the ‘B2B Marketing Campaign’ accolade at the esteemed EGR M&I Awards two times in a row.
Developing Player Welfare
SOFTSWISS innovative advancements led to the creation of an automated Risk Scoring Tool. The instrument detects suspicious player activity, setting a new standard of player welfare. The innovation was rewarded at the SiGMA Africa Awards in the Responsible Gaming Category.
Promoting Social Responsibility
Over the past three years, SOFTSWISS has invested millions of euro in charitable initiatives.

The company provided immediate aid to those affected and organised long-term support for the region’s recovery.
