If you're running an iGaming operation struggling with player retention, Soft2Bet offers a different approach. Most platforms deliver generic experiences that lose players after the welcome bonus.
Founded in 2016, this Malta-based powerhouse became the platform behind fast-growing casino and sportsbook brands in regulated markets worldwide. Starting as operators rather than tech vendors, they understand high churn rates and know that in 2025, gamification isn't optional—it's survival.
Most platform providers give you a white-label casino with thousands of games and call it a day. Your players have options but no reason to come back.
Soft2Bet flips this on its head with their MEGA platform and operator-first philosophy. The company operates under 19 licenses across 11 jurisdictions, including some of the toughest regulatory environments—Sweden, Denmark, Ontario, Malta, Greece, Romania, Italy—and they're pushing into New Jersey and Latin America.
Most platforms are built by engineers who've never run a casino. Soft2Bet started as B2C operators, launching brands like Betinia, CampoBet, and YoyoCasino before building their B2B platform. They know what drives retention because they've experienced the same challenges.
This operator DNA runs through everything they build. Their CMS enables rapid content updates, payment integrations support localized methods, and compliance is embedded from day one.
MEGA: The Gamification Engine Crushing Retention Metrics
The average player on a standard iGaming platform spends 20-30 minutes per session before bouncing. Now imagine quadrupling that screen time while simultaneously increasing deposits by 50% and boosting retention by 45%.
That's not theory—it's what operators using MEGA are reporting.
MEGA by the Numbers (Real Results)
MEGA stands for Motivational Engineering Gaming Application. It transforms static casino play into story-driven journeys with city-building, quests, avatar customization, leaderboards, and loyalty rewards.
The genius? It's modular. Operators choose which gamification engines fit their audience, all integrating through a single API.
Players bet real money, earn loyalty points automatically, spend points in MEGA's bonus games, win extra rewards (free spins, bonuses, cash), then use those rewards to play more. It's a self-reinforcing loop that tracks real-time behavioral data for continuous optimization.
Betinia used this system and won "Innovation in Casino" at the EGR Marketing & Innovation Awards 2025—not because they had more games, but because they had better engagement.
In 2025, compliance isn't boring—it's your moat. Every operator wants to launch in Sweden, Denmark, Ontario, or New Jersey. These are massive, profitable markets, but most operators can't get licensed.
Soft2Bet holds 19 licenses because they've built compliance into their DNA as a competitive weapon.
Soft2Bet holds multi-jurisdictional licensing with MGA, SGA, Danish Gambling Authority, AGCO, and more. Their robust AML and KYC processes average under 0.7 days verification with 55%+ automatic approval. GDPR-compliant data management, real-time transaction monitoring, and embedded responsible gaming tools complete their framework.
Every MEGA feature works within regulatory frameworks. In 2024 alone, Soft2Bet secured licenses in Italy, Romania, Greece, Ontario, and Spain while doubling EBITDA.
Most iGaming platforms are monolithic. Adding a payment method takes months. Launching in a new market requires rebuilding half your stack.
Soft2Bet runs on microservices architecture for plug-and-play scaling. Run multiple brands from a single backend with different languages, payments, and branding—no duplicated infrastructure. Launch in Sweden with Trustly, move to Canada with Interac, add crypto where needed. MEGA integrates through a single API.
In summer 2025, Soft2Bet is launching in New Jersey through a partnership with Caesars Entertainment. With only seven US states currently offering online casinos, they're positioning for massive growth as more states regulate.
They're bringing mobile-first sportsbooks, MEGA gamification tailored for US players, seamless casino and sports betting, and API technology integrating social media experiences. Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Connecticut are next.
Theory is cute. Results matter. Let's look at what Soft2Bet has built:
Betinia (Denmark, Sweden): Launched in 2018, won "Innovation in Casino" at EGR Marketing & Innovation Awards 2025. Uses MEGA gamification to dominate Europe's most competitive markets.
ToonieBet (Ontario, Canada): Launched late 2024 as casino-only, added sportsbook in May 2025. Now offers 85,000+ live sports events monthly with partnership with Ottawa Senators.
CampoBet MX (Mexico): Officially launched Q4 2024, demonstrating Soft2Bet's ability to localize for LATAM markets with Spanish-language support and local payment methods.
Don.ro (Romania): Operating in one of Europe's fastest-growing iGaming markets with 40% increase in return users thanks to MEGA's personalized engagement mechanics.
Soft2Bet swept major industry awards in 2025. Global Gaming Awards EMEA recognized their CEO as Executive of the Year, named them Platform Provider of the Year, and awarded MEGA Product Launch of the Year. SBC Europe Awards honored them as Acquisition & Retention Partner and Industry Innovator of the Year.
These competitive categories, judged by industry peers, prove Soft2Bet is solving problems everyone else ignores: retention, engagement, and regulatory compliance.
The Innovation Investment Play
In 2024, Soft2Bet launched a €50 million innovation fund focused on AI, UX analytics, and gamified solutions. They're funding next-generation iGaming technologies to stay ahead of market trends.
Most iGaming platforms give you games and hope for the best. Soft2Bet gives you a complete growth system: engagement tools that work, compliance frameworks that scale, and technology that doesn't break when you need it most.
The Soft2Bet Advantage in Numbers
The iGaming market is consolidating. Players have unlimited options and they're not loyal to brands anymore—they're loyal to experiences.
Regulations are tightening globally. Markets that were wide open five years ago now require sophisticated compliance frameworks just to get a license.
Competition is intensifying. The operators who win in 2025 and beyond won't be the ones with the most games—they'll be the ones with the best engagement, the cleanest compliance, and the fastest time-to-market.
Soft2Bet isn't the biggest iGaming platform provider and probably not the cheapest. But for operators serious about scaling sustainably, entering new markets quickly, and actually retaining players instead of just acquiring them, they're the best.
They started as operators, built what they needed, and now they're sharing it with the industry. The operators using MEGA, leveraging Soft2Bet's compliance infrastructure, and building multi-brand operations on their modular platform are the ones winning.
Not just software—a complete growth system for iGaming operators who refuse to accept average results.
