By William - 4 January 2022
SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator’s average monthly GGR totalled €200m in 2021 compared to €88m the prior year.
In its preliminary results for the last calendar year, SOFTSWISS recorded an average bet sum that exceeded €5bn per month compared to €2.2bn a year earlier, a growth of 130 per cent.
Annual GGR and bet sum also increased significantly. In January, GGR capped at €130m whilst in December it was over the €250m mark. The sum of bets almost doubled from €3.3bn to €6.5bn.
“These figures are the natural result of the work done over the past year by the SOFTSWISS Team on bringing in new clients and partners. Since January we have more than doubled in size: 500+ professionals have joined SOFTSWISS, which couldn’t help but affect our end of year results.
“We’re developing the best solutions from the iGaming industry every day to help our partners build successful businesses. I am very happy with the results achieved and expect even more success in the new year!” commented Andrey Starovoitov, COO at SOFTSWISS.
In 2021, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator began to deliver games in several new markets including Japan, Brazil, Argentina, India, and Tunisia.
Among all currencies, crypto made up about 40 per cent in 2021 compared to 20 per cent in 2020. Bitcoin showed the main increase, taking fifth place in the ranking of the most used currencies in 2021. It remains the most popular cryptocurrency among all SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator operators.
“SOFTSWISS has long been known as a leading B2B crypto solution provider, and this past year has proven that once again. Cryptocurrencies are an obvious trend in the gambling industry, so in our development we put special emphasis on their use. The 2021 figures are the expected result of the company’s strategy to expand its portfolio with crypto products,” added Andrey Starovoitov, SOFTSWISS COO.
In the past year, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator partnered with over 60 clients and 20 game providers. At present, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator offers entertainment content from 170 game studios, over 11,800 games, and more than 3,000 games optimised for cryptocurrency.
The most popular games in the aggregator’s portfolio were Sweet Bonanza (Pragmatic Play), Book of Dead (Play’n Go), Fire in the Hole xBomb (Nolimit City), Elvis Frog in Vegas (BGaming), and Lightning Roulette (Evolution Gaming).
“The common trend is that during the long lockdown in 2020 and the continuing pandemic in 2021, people have been forced to spend a lot of time at home, including at the computer. Isolation and decreased social activity have influenced a rise in demand for online entertainment.
“We can see this in the steady increase in the number of bets throughout the year. Observing this trend, we tried to provide our clients with the most diverse content to keep the audience interested and engaged. I can say with confidence that we have succeeded,” summed up Tatyana Kaminskaya, Head of Game Aggregator Department at SOFTSWISS.
