As the online betting industry has grown exponentially in recent years, so too has NSoft’s global footprint. Deloitte has consecutively named NSoft a Fast 50 tech company in Central Europe in the past three years.

Africa’s rising opportunities
Especially in high-growth markets such as Africa, understanding new technologies will be essential to scalable success and differentiation in an increasingly crowded market.

“We’re traditionally very strong in Central and Eastern Europe, but the fastest growth we’re experiencing in Africa’s large market and we are fully aware of the huge potential that this region has. Africa as the rising star on the iGaming market has been especially interesting when it comes to a real omnichannel experience, explains Davor Konjevod, Regional Sales Manager.

‘’African countries are high on the agendas of all important operators due to their infrastructure, mobile penetration and legislation already in place. Even though the sportsbook is very popular, and will continue to grow, all aspects of the African industry will continue to register a growth of the mobile and online channels and NSoft is closely monitoring the market movements.’’, Davor adds.

‘’Nevertheless, the players’ interest in Sportsbook is undoubted, we have been closely collaborating with 100+ of our customers across the world in order to deliver the best Self Managed Pre-Match Application out there. We mostly work with Betradar’s MTS which is brilliant for small and medium customers – it reduces their operational costs, provides certainty in terms of profit and they only need to focus on marketing. Once they get to the point they are big enough that they want to take risk management in their own hands, we provide the option to continue working with us through Self Managed. So, Self Managed at its core is not revolutionary towards the players, it’s revolutionary for the betting operators because now – it is a sophisticated application that helps create small, fine details within customer’s Pre-Match sports betting operations, providing an extra mile in front of competition without jeopardizing player’s habits. As an alternative of printed Pre-Match betting offers NSoft has developed on-screen rotating visualizations with GUI¸ based configuration depending on different and specific clients’ needs.” adds Aluwani Mukhudwana, Regional sales manager.

Commenting on NSoft’s advancements for Africa’s market, Konjevod adds: ‘’Africa’s low internet speed coverage represents one of the main issues for betting businesses around the continent. This is why NSoft adjusted its products for the satellite stream solution, which is currently in the testing phase by NSoft’s selected clients.’’

Omnichannel presence as the imperative
NSoft creates interactive games played in a variety of settings, from users’ phones and computers to retail terminals and betting shops. The games and apps are developed in-house and licensed to providers and retailers across the world.

“Our games can be easily integrated into other platforms and we can customize our games to clients in their native language across the 30-plus countries we serve,” said Davor.

Notably, NSoft developed Seven – a comprehensive, turnkey platform for managing core betting business operations. Betting operators who were previously juggling a plethora of games and sportsbooks from different providers can now consolidate everything on NSoft’s platform.

Explaining the Seven’s power, Aluwani emphasizes: ‘’Seven includes modules, applications, and APIs that serve as a foundation for stacking products and offering them to their operator clients. The platform handles users, transactions and reporters on an intuitive framework to aggregate betting and gaming products from third-party vendors like NSoft. To simplify implementation and lower the client’s investment in new hardware needed for retail channel, NSoft has developed a preinstalled mini PC that satisfies all client requirements to run NSoft Seven products. Nevertheless, with the Internet era, web and mobile betting solutions have become very popular, and it demands multiple payment methods for players, so NSoft is developing a service that aims to implement easy integration of payment methods into Seven Platform enabling the integration of more than 200 different payment methods.’’
