“I am pleased to see that the combination of network and branded jackpot campaigns has significantly improved our clients’ business metrics. This year, we are welcoming the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator’s clients, who can seamlessly and rapidly set up jackpot campaigns. Launching jackpots has become easier than ever before, as our jackpot engine can now be seamlessly added into any iGaming project, whether it’s the Casino Platform or the Game Aggregator,“ comments Aliaksei Douhin, Head of SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator.
