money. Using this money, they can enjoy online casino games or bet on sports.
Likewise, players can transform real money funds into loyalty points to enjoy more gamification games. Tis creates very high player engagement and great results. For example, deposit levels are up more than 40 per cent and player screen time is up by 300 per cent.
Are gamification technologies the flagship product for Soft2Bet at this event, or are other products sharing the spotlight?
Gamification is a leading innovation for us at Soft2Bet, but not the only one. Our Player Account Management (PAM) system makes full use of state-of-the-art technology to offer scalability for growth and flexibility.
In addition to our PAM, we boast an enhanced casino offering with around 1,400 different casino games, one of the largest in the industry, and a sportsbook comprising millions of annual sports and esports events. Alongside all this, we also have over 300 different payment solutions available.
What differentiates our offering is that it's incredibly customised and personalised. Not only will customers in different countries see offerings that are suited to their specific preferences and playing patterns, but those in the same country also enjoy highly tailored experiences. Depending on what's allowed in specific markets we can also offer VIPs a completely customised offer - an aspect of our portfolio we take pride in.
Our Managed Services is truly holistic and one of the most powerful offerings in the marketplace. Tis starts with customer support, in which we offer 24/7 solutions for our partners and players in over 30 different languages.
Additionally, we offer KYC and conduct automatic checks - either through the process of uploading documents or in a matter of seconds through an automated and seamless process. Of course, which of these is appropriate is dependent upon the legislation of the market in question.
We also cover aspects such as risk and fraud thanks to our automated systems. Tese allow us to categorise players instantly, whether that’s bonus abusers, fraudulent activity, or a legitimate player. Additionally, we have CRM, responsible gaming and AML offerings.
We have also developed our own bonus engine based on the latest technology, meaning players will receive tailored bonuses based on their history. Te front-end is a crucial aspect of our B2B product offering. Some companies offer

templates, but we make full use of the advanced technology by utilising scalable tech to produce a truly original front-end for our clients. Players can see and appreciate that the site has a distinct design and feel and thanks to our gamification features can enjoy highly- tailored gaming experiences.
Finally, we also have our own internal game studio, ELA Games, that produces new games every month that can reach up to 98 per cent RTP. ELA Games has several popular titles you may have heard of including Slot Crab, a claw machine turned into a slot.
Soft2Bet has obtained numerous European licences in recent months including in Italy, Romania and Greece. What is Soft2Bet's European expansion strategy, and what's the thinking behind obtaining these specific licences?
Firstly, it's important to stress that all the licences we've obtained at Soft2Bet are the result of a lengthy process and in-depth work. Tis process includes the checking and investigation of many parameters, including taxation level, compliance requirements with regard to players and marketing, competitors, market potential and so on.
Of course, we're ultimately trying to determine how our innovative tools and offering can dominate within the market. If we're not going to be dominant, it's not interesting for us. For example, we see high potential when it comes to Romania where we have local setups whereas in Italy and other markets, we have identified the best route as coming in with a fresh, new offer.
Soft2Bet's General Counsel, David Yatom Hay, recently told G3 Pulse Podcast that he felt now was a bit late to enter the US market. Would you agree with that assessment?
On this occasion I have to say I disagree strongly with David! He and I sit together in the
same meetings, conducting evaluations with other senior managers and team members, but I disagree with him. Te lengthy process I have just described is still ongoing for the US but, ultimately, we are a data-driven company, so the numbers need to make sense. Tat's why we are successful - we know what the right formulas are.
We have seen a lot of companies go to the US and exit very quickly. We don't want to repeat the same mistakes. Once we are in the US, we'll know exactly at which point we'll start to see returns, how much money we're going to invest, how and which channels to invest in, and, crucially, how to localise the product. Tat's an extremely important thing for us at Soft2Bet - that's the way we succeed in each jurisdiction.
I had great feedback from my colleagues who attended G2E Las Vegas in October. By all accounts Soft2Bet had a very successful event with plenty of interesting meetings. A lot of opportunities came up and I'm looking forward to seeing how they unfold.
Today, Soft2Bet is a notable brand - certainly in Europe - and we are seeing major operators approach us with a view to partner with us. Now we're starting to establish ourselves over in the US, but this is a process that will take time. Trust needs to be built.
Between now and the next major exhibition, ICE London, does Soft2Bet have any new products and innovations in the production pipeline?
It's crucial to be innovative as it creates waves within the industry. We will generate and create further Motivational Engineering solutions for our partners, and have some exciting ones in development already. I can’t say too much at this time, but the potential for MMA and hockey themes solutions for the US market is clear. Another innovative product in the works via ELA Games is the potential for a game aggregator.
