Soft2Bet Showcases MEGA and Expanding Brand Portfolio at SBC Summit Rio 2025

Soft2Bet, a leading global iGaming platform provider, is excited to announce its participation in SBC Summit Rio 2025, taking place on 26-27 February at Riocentro, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The company will host an exclusive workshop focused on its cutting-edge casino gamification solution at Stand B960, designed for operators seeking data-driven gamification insights for casino and sportsbook brands.
Soft2Bet’s MEGA workshop, presented by Nicolas Campano, Sales Director LATAM, will provide in-depth insights into how MEGA enhances the player retention loop through motivational engineering and personalised experiences. Users play and bet for real money, collecting additional loyalty points. They spend these points to play bonus games (e.g. Bonus Crab, City Builder, etc) to get extra rewards, including free spins, free bets, bonus money, and real money, which they utilise to play more. This hands-on session will feature live demonstrations, showcasing how the solution boosts engagement and drives business performance for operators in regulated markets.
Alongside MEGA, Soft2Bet will present powerful turnkey solutions with new updates and strong PAM, front-end and sportsbook solutions tailored for LATAM operators. With extensive experience in localisation and personalisation, Soft2Bet has successfully launched B2C brands across multiple highly competitive markets. As one of Soft2Bet’s leading brands, Campobet MX, officially launched in Q4 of 2024, is a prime example of how the company’s platform delivers high-performance, localised gaming experiences for operators looking to expand in the region. Soft2Bet’s products personalise the casino and sports betting experience, delivering an engaging user experience.
“Through this exclusive workshop, we aim to highlight how our API-based, standalone product can enhance the player experience and drive retention in the rapidly growing LATAM market. We look forward to connecting with industry professionals and showcasing the power of innovation in iGaming,” said Campano.
Soft2Bet invites all SBC Summit Rio attendees to Stand B960, where operators can meet with the team, explore Soft2Bet’s full suite of products, and learn more about the company’s strategic growth plans for the Latin American market.

StatRankings Launches with Aim to Deliver Faster, Cleaner, and Smarter Sports Data Experience

StatRankings, the ultimate data hub for sports fans, bettors, and fantasy players, announced the launch of its new website. Designed for speed, simplicity, and privacy, StatRankings helps users make smarter decisions by removing the clutter of outdated, stat sites. With more than 500 NFL data points organized on dedicated, ad-free pages, fans can instantly find the data they need to help set fantasy lineups or put together a betting slip without endless tables, pop-ups, or dashboards getting in the way.
“The sports stats industry has been stuck in the past for too long. These sites supposedly designed for bettors, fantasy players, and media are archaic, cumbersome, and confusing. We are committed to keeping the experience of finding stats as smooth and easy as possible, without all the noise. We want StatRankings to represent a new standard in how sports data can be delivered,” said Kevin Adams, Founder of StatRankings and fantasy sports industry veteran.
In addition to the launch of its website, StatRankings created a partnership with One Week Season, a premium DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports) subscription service that offers content, tools, and community. StatRankings data will be used across shows and articles found on One Week Season’s site for the duration of the NFL season.
“One Week Season is all about teaching people the ‘how’ when it comes to becoming a better DFS player. StatRankings helps us in that mission by making sharper and deeper data more accessible and doing so in a manner that has previously been awkward and downright clumsy. By incorporating StatRankings into our content, we’re able to offer the most optimized insights to our users for their success,” said One Week Season’s CEO Jordan Tohline.
