SOFTSWISS, a leading tech company offering a comprehensive ecosystem of innovative products for iGaming, triumphs at the SiGMA Europe Awards in the Best Aggregator 2023 category.
Marking the beginning of the SiGMA Europe Summit in the heart of Malta, the Awards ceremony brought together leading representatives of the iGaming industry to celebrate their achievements. Stealing the spotlight, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator emerged as the triumphant winner, showcasing its excellence among the strongest players in the European iGaming arena.
The distinguished recognition at the SiGMA Europe Awards, coupled with the win at the prestigious EGR B2B Awards in 2023, seamlessly aligns with the compelling findings of the recent marketing survey. The results speak volumes, with 93% of current SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator clients satisfied with the product.
In July 2023, the SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator achieved a remarkable milestone with 10 billion euro in monthly bets, solidifying its position as a recognised industry leader. Since the beginning of the year, the game hub has expanded its portfolio by 3,000 new titles, bringing the total to almost 16,000 distinct games from 200 unique providers. A testament to its widespread trust, 860+ brands leverage the Game Aggregator to develop their iGaming business, with 200 new partners joining in 2023.
To enhance client satisfaction, SOFTSWISS implemented cross-product integrations of the Game Aggregator with the Sportsbook platform and the Jackpot Aggregator, as well as introduced a new Tournament Tool. The tool allows operators to engage players effectively, providing a distinctive advantage with its in-game interface to guarantee that players stay well-informed about all current gaming campaigns.
Tatyana Kaminskaya, Head of SOFTSWISS Game Aggregator, expresses her thrill about the victory: “We are definitely excited about receiving this award, gained due to the trust and recognition of our clients as well as the enthusiastic work of our team. This win inspires us to continue pushing boundaries and setting new standards in the aggregator space.”

The iGB Affiliate Awards 2024 are part of the iGB Affiliate London 2024 event, designed to celebrate individuals and teams in affiliate marketing and iGaming. The awards will take place following the second day of iGB Affiliate London on 8 February 2024.
A roll-call of outstanding talent’ is how Naomi Barton, Portfolio Director responsible for iGB Affiliate, described the shortlist of entries for the 2024 Awards which are being held on Thursday 8 February at the Grade II-listed Art Deco Troxy music venue in East London.
The black-tie Awards ceremony which features a three-course sit down dinner and an entertainment-packed evening are the last to be held in London prior to iGB Affiliate’s relocation to Barcelona, with organisers reporting huge early demand for table bookings as the international igaming affiliate community prepares to say goodbye to London in style.
Looking ahead to the prestigious evening Naomi Barton said: “It’s totally fitting that the last iGB Affiliate Awards to be held in London has attracted a record 338 submissions from across the international community.
“The Awards are an integral part of the iGB Affiliate experience and celebrate everything that’s so unique and compelling about the igaming affiliate sector, recognising the industry’s outstanding individuals, brands, games, networks, tech vendors and marketing campaigns.
“It promises to be another inspirational Awards evening and a perfect way to complement the exhibition which will feature circa 155 exhibitors occupying 11,757 square metres of space and a raft of show initiatives created to highlight new strategies, new partnerships, new sectors and new jurisdictions all culminating in the delivery of new business opportunities for the thousands of customers who will be part of what will be an historic edition of iGB Affiliate.”
Claire Wellard, CEO of affiliate management consultancy iGamingXL and a member of the 21-strong external judging panel, selected for their expertise and specialist industry knowledge, confirmed: “As always, it’s a pleasure to be part of the judging process for the iGB Affiliate Awards. I love seeing the developments from all of these companies in innovation and growth. The step change in the quality of the submissions across all the categories with which I was involved as a judge this year reinforces the view of this sector as one that is in rude health and poised to go from strength to strength in 2024”.
Fellow judge, Vicki Reed, Founder, Better Change, added: “It was encouraging to read about some of the impressive and unique innovations by affiliates in the area of safer gambling. Such initiatives are set to become more integral to igaming’s ongoing repositioning of itself as a more sustainable sector with responsible play at the heart of its operations and strategy”.
