SOFTSWISS, a global tech company with over 15 years of experience in iGaming, triumphed in four categories at the European iGaming Excellence Awards 2024.

Held in Warsaw during the European iGaming Congress, the EiGE Awards united iGaming professionals across the region. SOFTSWISS received recognition in categories such as

• Best Customer Service
• Innovation in iGaming Technology
• iGaming Leader of the Year
• iGaming Influencer of the Year.

SOFTSWISS adheres to a ‘player-first’ ethical philosophy, highlighting its dedication to responsible gambling practices. With an 83% customer satisfaction rating, a strong focus on delivering the best player experience, and robust fraud protection, SOFTSWISS Managed Services was recognised as Best Customer Service at the EiGE Awards for the second consecutive year.

SOFTSWISS secured a win in the Innovation in iGaming Technology category thanks to its range of inventive features, including unique Sportsbook bonuses, a risk-scoring tool aligned with responsible gaming practices, and prime network jackpot campaigns, all ensuring players’ engagement and safety. As a result of a recent network jackpot campaign, the average Bet Sum increased by up to 150% within 7 days of winning a jackpot.

Undoubtedly, the company’s achievements and prominent wins would not be possible without the vision and strong commitment of its founder, Ivan Montik, who was recognised as the iGaming Leader of the Year. In its anniversary year, SOFTSWISS entered new markets and niches in online entertainment through acquisitions and partnerships, hired F1 star Rubens Barrichello as Non-Executive Director in LatAm, and became the company providing the richest game portfolio in the industry. 

Valentina Bagniya, Chief Marketing Officer at SOFTSWISS, was named the iGaming Influencer of the Year for setting new trends in iGaming marketing. Valentina revolutionised the traditional approach to marketing in iGaming with award-winning marketing campaigns and in-depth industry reports. Her dedication and professionalism led to SOFTSWISS being recognised as the Brand Idol of the Year in 2023. Under her leadership, the company has taken the top spot in media for over three years in a row, and its brand awareness has grown five times. 

Valentina Bagniya summarises: “Every single win or milestone reflects the harmonised work of the talented team and wise leaders. These accolades are our mutual triumph. I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to the industry experts who voted for our company and to SOFTSWISS professionals whose hard work made these achievements possible.

Play’n GO, the world’s leading casino entertainment provider, was last night awarded the coveted Software Supplier of the Year Award at the annual EGR Italy Awards ceremony in Rome.

Play’n GO have had a stellar 2024 in Italy, with increases in player-count, rounds played, and GGR YoY. Games like Book of Dead, Tome of Madness, and Rise of Olympus 100 continue to resonate strongly with players in Italy, and this award is testament to the legendary game studio’s continued success and dominance in its field.

Play’n GO boasts a portfolio of over 350 premium games, and is on track to release over 50 games in 2024 alone.

Ebba Arnred, Chief Marketing Officer and Co-Founder at Play’n GO, said “We’re honoured to receive this award from the team at EGR Italy, and it is testament to the entire team here at Play’n GO. I would like to thank everyone at EGR, the judges, and especially our Italian operator partners, without whom winning this award would not be possible. We pride ourselves as the best casino entertainment provider in the world; awards like this don’t so much affirm that belief as remind us of its importance. We look forward to defending our award in 2025, as we continue to deliver the best-in-class content that we are famous for.”
