In pursuit of online casino success, operators do their best to provide players with the most interesting products and services, promote their business, analyze the revenue, grow traffic, and implement many other business development methods. Operators create marketing and plans to follow. However there is another important plan we often ignore — business continuity plan.

The iGaming business is vulnerable: it’s usually a large-scale venture, the risks are huge, and the number of potential threats is high. Starting from legal risks if the regulation changes or the market closes, to the cyber attack risks due to lack of security measures. Almost anything can go wrong and ruin a business that was built for years and took a lot of investment.

Slotegrator released a downloadable material describing what can potentially go wrong and how to make your business ready for it. Having a plan is crucial in this matter because improvising when an emergency occurs is a bad idea. What will you do if your regulator bans all forms of gambling advertising? Who will be responsible if the platform fails and the online casino stops functioning properly? How will you analyze the huge amount of data from your platform to detect a mistake? There must be a specific and very detailed plan of actions. Every minute of not accepting payments or not registering new players is an enormous loss for a casino operator, that’s why it’s so important to have your business continuously working without interruptions.

Some problems that may look less serious can cause big difficulties for businesses as well. For instance, Slotegrator talked to William Sarto, PR & Marketing Specialist at CasinoRIX, and got a few tips to help safeguard business during Google’s regular updates. Sarto points out several key advice: “Don’t rely on just one GEO; make sure you’re running projects across multiple countries. Don’t stick to just one vertical. For example, run projects in both the casino and betting sectors. This way, if one gets hit, you’ll have others to offset the impact.

 Use a variety of strategies to promote your projects. If one takes a hit, others can grow or stay steady, giving you time to bounce back. Don’t rely solely on SEO for traffic—explore other channels to diversify your sources.”

Having said that, business continuity solution includes two main strategies. The first is to try to prevent the crisis and make your business less vulnerable to external events, and the second is a plan of actions to deal with a crisis and return to normal operation after it passes.

“We all know that being aware of potential risks is already a first step in preventing them. Problems that business face are various, especially in the iGaming industry, but knowing what can happen, learning from experiences gained before, and having a recovery plan can save many starting companies,” says Svetlana Kirichenko, Head of Marketing at Slotegrator.

everymatrix-set-for-another-standout-year-with-strong-q1-performance

EveryMatrix has kicked off 2025 with powerful momentum, reporting a standout first quarter of exceptional revenue growth and profitability.

The tier-1 iGaming technology platform supplier delivered a very strong first quarter performance, with net revenue reaching €54 million, up 39% Year-on-Year (YoY), and EBITDA increasing to €28m, up 27% YoY, driven by strong growth from existing clients and innovative product launches.

EBITDA margin reached 52%, making it the eighth consecutive quarter above 50%, as the company continues to scale its platform and casino content technologies while maintaining strong financial discipline.

The last twelve months’ EBITDA reached €107m, up 50% YoY, building on 2024’s milestone achievement of surpassing €100 million in annual EBITDA.

Q1 MILESTONES SIGNAL POWERHOUSE YEAR AHEAD

A highlight of the first quarter was the successful migration of Bet600 – the first full turnkey FSB Technologies customer in the UK – to the EveryMatrix platform. The company aim remains to have all clients fully migrated in 2025 thereby realizing large cost synergies from this key acquisition.

EveryMatrix launched its cutting-edge proprietary Horse Racing solution by combining FSB’s proven knowledge and experience in Horse Racing with the innovation of OddsMatrix development teams. It provides global horse racing coverage with 10k+ monthly events, full system bets offering with bonusing capabilities and configurations and a purpose-built Horse Racing front end with rich Racecard content & live streaming integrations among some of the features.

A landmark deal was signed to deliver a full casino turnkey platform solution to SkyCity Entertainment Group.  SkyCity is one of New Zealand’s largest entertainment companies owning five land-based casinos across both NZ and Australia and the online casino brand SkyCitycasino.com. SkyCity migrates from their current provider to EveryMatrix later this year.

SPORTS SURGE AND STRONG CASINO & PLATFORM GROWTH

Q1 2025 saw the company’s sports division deliver exceptional growth, with quarterly sports turnover rising 30% YoY to €1.7b, while GGR climbing 60% YoY to €154m on the back of continued strong trading margins. The last twelve months (LTM) turnover hit €6.3b, reflecting a 48% YoY increase, with GGR rising by 92% YoY to €505m. Part of the growth came from reaching a record number of nearly 600,000 live events, a 24% YoY increase.

Casino experienced the strongest quarterly financial results to date, with net revenue climbing to €28.6m, up 44% YoY, while EBITDA reached €16.8m, up 29% YoY. Casino GGR reached €753m, a 22% YoY increase, with the LTM reaching €2.9b, a 38% YoY increase.

GamMatrix, the company’s Gaming and Player Account Management Platform, experienced a net revenue increase of €8.6m, up 18% YoY, while EBITDA landed at €2.4m, a 23% decrease YoY. The decrease in EBITDA margin is related to a change in internal revenue allocation.

Ebbe Groes, Group CEO of EveryMatrix, said: “I’m very excited for 2025. Q1 was a solid quarter, a great start, and the rest of the year looks just as promising. We had a phenomenal year in 2024, which will be hard to beat, but thanks to the momentum we’ve set in motion during the last few years, I’m sure we’ll be able to do it.

“Our sports division never ceases to amaze me, breaking record after record. This quarter, we managed to reach 600,000 live events, all thanks to our ability to expand our coverage and add new products and features even while experiencing this much continuous growth.”
