SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator Certified in Brazil

 

SOFTSWISS, a leading iGaming software provider, announced that its Jackpot Aggregator, a comprehensive player engagement solution, has successfully obtained certification for the Brazilian market.

Following its flagship product, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, which was the first to be certified in Brazil, SOFTSWISS has now received approval for its engagement tool, the Jackpot Aggregator, meeting all technical and legal requirements set by Brazilian authorities. Both products – the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator and the SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator – can be used independently or together, significantly enhancing casino KPIs.

With iGaming regulations effective 1 January 2025, companies planning to operate in the country must obtain the certification. The regulation enforces responsible gambling standards, aligning with principles already adopted in many regulated markets.

For operators legally operating in the Brazilian market, the key priority is to engage with players responsibly while delivering a captivating gaming experience using approved, secure, and effective tools.

The SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator provides various flexible jackpot mechanics tailored to enhance user engagement across different player segments. Among its standout features are multi-level prizes, prize drops, branded jackpots, and others

To maintain this high level of performance, SOFTSWISS strengthened its commitment to the Brazilian market by appointing Rubens Barrichello, the legendary Brazilian Formula 1 driver, as a Non-Executive Director. Additionally, to ensure seamless operations and swift response to ongoing needs, SOFTSWISS has established a dedicated team of local business development managers in Brazil.

Angelina Stasiuk, Head of Business Line at SOFTSWISS Jackpot Aggregator, commented: “We are thrilled to bring the Jackpot Aggregator to the Brazilian market. Brazil is a massive and rapidly growing market, and we already have potential certified clients there who are actively seeking innovative engagement tools. The Jackpot Aggregator is the perfect solution to meet these demands, providing operators with powerful tools to enhance player retention and engagement.”

The Jackpot Aggregator can be seamlessly launched with the Game Aggregator. The SOFTSWISS team will be available to discuss partnerships in Brazil and other markets at the SBC Summit Rio on 25 to 27 February

ADG Urges Responsible and Legal Betting Ahead of Super Bowl LIX

Published

on

On Sunday, February 9, 2025, the Philadelphia Eagles will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, with kick-off at 6:30 p.m. ET. As one of the most anticipated and wagered-on sporting events of the year, the Arizona Department of Gaming (“ADG”) is reminding Arizona residents and visitors to bet responsibly and within the bounds of the law.

“The Super Bowl is an exciting event that brings communities together, but it’s essential to approach event wagering with caution and accountability,” said Jackie Johnson, ADG Director. “We encourage all Arizonans to enjoy the game responsibly by ensuring their wagers are placed legally and thoughtfully.” Further emphasizing the importance of using licensed operators for all event wagering activities, “illegal gambling undermines public safety and the integrity of the game, while responsible betting practices help ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants,” stated ADG Director, Jackie Johnson.

Sports Pools – Know What Rules to Follow

In the United States, it is common to see friends and family participate in sports pools for the Super Bowl, often known as “Super Bowl Squares”. These pools are legal as long as the state’s social gambling rules are followed. According to Arizona Law (A.R.S. § 13-3301(7)), social gambling requires:

  • That gambling cannot be conducted as business, which means that hosts cannot receive
    financial benefit, unless they are participating in the game;
  • Hosts pay out all pool money to the winner(s);
  • Only participants can win; and
  • Players compete on equal terms with each other.

A few things to be on the lookout for that indicate illegal gambling:

  • Paying a fee to participate, including “suggested” or “voluntary” donations.
  • A host who keeps a percentage of the pool for administering the game.
  • A required minimum purchase to participate (food or beverage, etc.).
  • Unequal odds.
  • Underage participants (under 21 years of age).

Responsible Betting – What to Keep in Mind

With sports betting legal in the state, it has become increasingly important to educate yourself on how you can bet responsibly. Listed below are some helpful tips as part of the American Gaming Association’s (“AGA”) Have A Game Plan.® Bet Responsibly.™ campaign:

  • Set a Budget – It is crucial to keep in mind that everyone will have different budgets; never
    bet beyond your own means. Be cautious and make sure you set a limit – and stick to it – if
    you plan on wagering. More information on how to responsibly set a budget for wagering
    can be found on the AGA’s Have A Game Plan website: How Much Should I Wager?
  • Know the Odds – There are plenty of key terms everyone should know when making a sports
    bet. What’s a parlay? Over/under? Moneyline? If you decide to wager, make sure you are
    briefed on The Basics of Sports Betting.
  • Keep it Social – Whenever gambling, be mindful that all forms of gambling are for the
    purpose of entertainment. This is not a way to make money. By gaming with friends, family,
    and colleagues, you can keep playing responsibly and have fun.
  • Keep Your Cool – No one’s perfect, and in sports, winning and losing are all part of the game.
    Whether you’re wagering from the sidelines or watching from home, remember to keep
    your cool. Good sportsmanship isn’t just for the players on the field; it’s for everyone.
  • Play Legally – Legal operators provide important player protections that are not found in
    the illegal market. Whether you are placing a wager on your phone or at a physical
    sportsbook, make sure you are using a legal operator in the state. Visit the ADG website to
    view a full list of the state’s approved operators and retail locations: Approved Operators.

If you or someone you know has a gambling problem, you can get help now by calling 1-800- NEXT-STEP (1.800.639.8783), the Division of Problem Gaming (“DPG”)’s confidential helpline, texting “NEXTSTEP” to 53342, or utilizing a chat feature on the DPG website. DPG’s helpline provides confidentiality and connects callers with a master’s level counselor who can connect them with available resources, including statewide treatment providers who specialize in problem gambling. The helpline is available 24/7 to everyone facing a problem with gambling, whether that be individuals and affected family members, friends, or co-workers.
