Online Casino Innovator Soft2Bet Shows US Market How to Improve ROI at SBC Summit North America in New Jersey

Soft2Bet, a leading casino and sportsbook platform provider, displayed its Motivational Engineering Gaming Application (MEGA) last week at SBC Summit North America 2024, one of the preeminent conferences for the online betting and gaming industry in the U.S. and Canada.
Soft2Bet Chief Business Development Officer (CBDO) Martin Collins gave a keynote presentation to a crowded room on driving increased engagement and ROI across Casino and Sports Betting brands. He described we are currently âin a race-to-the-bottom with unsustainable acquisition, engagement, and retention strategies of high-cost CPAs and bonuses that do not create customer loyalty.â During the presentation, Martin shared insights on how personalized gamified experiences can reduce costs and increase profitability for operators in tightly regulated markets.
âThereâs a lot of chatter about the lack of new favorable regulation for the industry in 2024,â said Collins. âSo in order to stay afloat in this environment, you need to get sticky to your consumer, and you do this by adding some spice to your platform. MEGA is the spice that will give operators a huge advantage when it comes to engagement, screentime, and overall loyalty.â
In addition to Collins, Soft2Bet executives including CEO and founder Uri Poliavich, CFO Max Portelli, and General Counsel David Yatom Hay, met with regulators, operators, and other industry partners to discuss Soft2Betâs launch in North America, as well as its MEGA solution, which can be integrated seamlessly into operatorsâ platforms and customized for local markets. Soft2Bet has submitted for both operating and supplier licenses in New Jersey, with plans to use its innovative technology and MEGA solution to revolutionize the online gambling market in the U.S.
Soft2Bet, which offers an extensive suite of iGaming products is now making off-the-shelf and unique casino gamification mechanics available to any operator, all via a seamless API integration. MEGA combines online casino and sportsbook solutions with casual gaming narratives and has proven to increase Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) by 45% and Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) by 60%. These gamification features can be personalized to the needs of any individual consumer and have demonstrated an increase in screen time by 4X, and increased deposit amounts by 50%.
With a pending launch in Ontario in the coming weeks, and work being done to gain a license in New Jersey, the Soft2Bet team intends to remain focused on the North American Market and to dedicate its resources to complete these launches. The team will be back in the US to meet with partners and showcase MEGA at Global Gaming Expo (G2E) on October 7-10 in Las Vegas, Nevada.â

Push Gaming makes landmark US debut in Michigan with BetMGM

B2B gaming supplier Push Gaming has officially entered the United States, launching its highly anticipated content in Michigan through a landmark exclusive collaboration with leading operator BetMGM.
The milestone debut marks a significant step in Push Gaming’s global growth strategy, bringing its distinctive, player-first approach to one of North America’s most dynamic iGaming jurisdictions.
BetMGM players in Michigan can soon enjoy a selection of launch titles from Push Gaming, including the highly anticipated Big Bamboo and the action-packed 10 Flaming Bisons. The latter made a strong debut in December 2024 and quickly became a fan favourite across the network.
Additionally, Push Gaming will launch a number of exclusive titles for BetMGM, incorporating MGM Resorts International’s IP, such as MGM Grand Gamble, MGM Emerald Nights and Bellagio Diamonds, alongside Push Gaming’s portfolio of popular titles, ensuring a steady stream of fresh, localised content.
The market entry signals the beginning of Push Gaming’s US journey, with its content exclusively available on BetMGM, uniting two forward-thinking brands that share a deep focus on entertainment, innovation and long-term player engagement.
Widely recognised as a key driver of US iGaming growth, Michigan recorded over $218.5 million in gross internet gaming revenue in March 2025, according to the Michigan Gaming Control Board (MGCB). With strong smartphone adoption, a loyal player base, and a commitment to innovation, the state provides the ideal launchpad for Push Gaming’s long-term ambitions in the country.
The addition of Push Gaming’s proven and popular titles will strengthen an already flourishing market and offer players fresh and compelling gaming experiences.
Push Gaming’s launch in Michigan directly builds on the successful collaboration established with BetMGM in Ontario. Working as a precursor, it demonstrates the robust nature of the relationship across North American markets.
Andy Bentley, COO at Push Gaming, said: “We’re incredibly excited to be live in the US, and Michigan is the perfect place to start. It’s a hugely important and vibrant market, and we’re proud to launch exclusively with BetMGM, one of the region’s most respected and established operators.”
“This launch is more than just a milestone. It’s a strategic step towards establishing Push Gaming as a market leader in North America. By building on our strong collaboration with BetMGM and delivering standout content, we’re confident we can grow a loyal and engaged player base in the US.”
Oliver Bartlett, Vice President of Gaming Product & Content at BetMGM, added: “A pillar of our content strategy is partnering with exceptional game suppliers like Push Gaming, who have a reputation for high-quality games that have proven to be a hit with players.
“We take pride in being the first operator to bring Push Gaming’s content to the United States, especially in a leading iGaming market like Michigan.”
As BetMGM continues to expand into new markets and introduce new features, responsible gaming remains a key focus. The major brand is continually evolving its commitment to providing resources that help customers play responsibly, including GameSense, an industry-leading programme developed and licensed to MGM Resorts by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation.
Through the integration within BetMGM’s mobile and desktop platforms, customers can receive the same GameSense experience they have grown to rely on at MGM Resorts properties nationwide. This complements BetMGM’s existing responsible gambling tools, which provide customers with an entertaining and safe digital experience.
