Softswiss continues to acquire big industry names all over the world, and the most recent is purchasing stakes in Ously Games GmbH from Germany, following the acquisition of Turfsport in January 2024.

Acquisition of the biggest social casino in Europe

The company is best known for its popular social casino SpinArena.net, which is the largest social casino in the whole of Europe, and now Softswiss has a significant stake in it.

On the other hand, Ously Games will get a chance to try some of the most advanced technologies and modern solutions developed by Softswiss.

Social casinos recorded rapid growth in the recent period, so some people call it the future of gaming, and it seems that Softswiss recognized its potential. One of its main assets is gaming and betting without real money included, so it’s completely risk-free for players. Instead, they can use virtual currency to place their bets, and the revenue comes mostly from sales of virtual goods.

The good news for operators is that social casinos don’t require licenses, and there aren’t any advertising restrictions. According to Softswiss, the global social casino market will be worth around $10 billion by 2030. At the moment, around $85 million people are active on social casinos.

SpinArena.net currently offers more than 3,000 captivating games from about 40 providers. Its players network has more than 700,000 players, and its annual turnover is €1.0 million.

Softswiss’ founder, Ivan Montik, commented on the deal: “Anticipating the development of social casinos within the igaming industry, Softswiss made strategic investments to diversify its portfolio. Together, we aim to create a comprehensive platform for social casinos, enriching the robust ecosystem of igaming products provided by our company.”

Jochen Martinez, the owner of Ously Games, added: “We are delighted to forge a strategic partnership with the global technology provider Softswiss. This alliance brings invaluable insights, innovations, and profound expertise to both parties.”

Successful year

The year started well for Softswiss. In January, the company expanded to Africa through a deal with Turfsport. Turfsport is one of the leaders in the industry when it comes to sports betting, horse racing, and lotto. Its operations in South Africa are recognized by more than 40 operators who want to partner with the company in this market.

Andrey Starovoitov, co-CEO, thinks that the African expansion is the natural next step for Softswiss since that market keeps growing rapidly, becoming more and more important in the global iGaming industry. He said: “With this agreement, Softswiss takes a significant step forward in its extensive expansion into South Africa and the African continent. I believe this region is becoming the next focal point globally, following Latin America.”
