Founder at Mozillion, Len Leeson comments:    

“Apps are a huge part of everyday life for mobile phone owners in 2022. From tracking fitness and nutrition, mobile gaming or social networking with friends and family, checking the weather – or even finding your life partner! Apps are becoming more technologically advanced and user-friendly every year, allowing our mobile phones to help us become more efficient and connected in our day-to-day lives.  

Our research has shown that while some apps are just fleeting trends, others are very clearly here to stay and remain firm favourites amongst mobile phone users, year after year. 

There’s an amazing choice of apps that are out there now, and alongside the fun ones, some are increasingly important and useful. With this in mind, we recommend you look for at least 128GB or even 256GB of storage when buying a new phone, so that the capacity keeps pace with the (many) apps you may want to download.”

Solitics launches In-Game Pulse for personalised in-play betting offers

Published

on

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Solitics has launched In-Game Pulse, a powerful tool that allows operators to turn real-time sports moments into high-impact engagement with bettors.

With In-Game Pulse, operators can respond to goals, plays and key events with personalised in-play betting offers, delivered to players when their attention peaks, not after.

It’s powered by Solitic’s new Follow Engine, which tracks what each bettor is interested in and then automatically delivers tailored campaigns based on those interests.

This means marketers build just one journey, rather than separate ones for each possibility.

In-Game Pulse works by connecting an operator’s user data with a live sports feed, then the Follow Engine adapts a single flow to match each user’s interests in real time.

Marketers can then trigger journeys based on the most important moments in a game – a goal, red card – as and when they happen, meaning they are no longer limited to just user behaviour.

The best part is that each campaign is tailored to the individual bettor, and based on the teams, athletes and events they care about.

This makes In-Game Pulse the perfect solution for personalised in-play betting engagement.

This is an example of how it works.

A team scores a goal. 

All users with that team in their favourites list get notified instantly. 

The messaging is kept really simple:

“Big Moment! Your team just scored. Want to double down on the momentum?”. 

The great thing about In-Game Pulse is that it’s not a workaround or a third-party add-on; instead, it sits within Solitics’ engagement flows.

This means operators and their marketing teams can deliver hyper-personalised campaigns at peak interest, with the speed and control that Solitics has built its reputation on.

Guy Shemer, VP Product at Solitics, said: “In-Game Pulse will change the game for how marketers engage players with in-play betting communications and offers. 

“In the past, they have had to map out multiple journeys, and this has created a tremendous amount of work, let alone the challenge of pushing communications at the right time. 

“In-Game Pulse does all the heavy lifting here, allowing marketers to engage players in the moment and when their attention peaks, not after. 

“In short, it allows operators to go beyond their own data and react instantly to live sports moments – moments that can drive betting activity.”

SBC Summit 2025 will debut two new conference stages – Global Markets and Emerging Markets – targeting region-specific insights as the event prepares to welcome over 30,000 attendees from more than 130 countries from September 16-18.

Following sharp international growth in 2024, with Latin America attendance up 126%, Asia up 80% with delegates from 30 countries, Africa up 45% with 29 nations represented, and North America up 127%, two additional conference stages were introduced to meet the event’s expanding global appeal.

Each stage will deliver targeted, actionable insights and create market-specific networking opportunities for delegates operating across the covered jurisdictions.

Rasmus Sojmark, Founder and CEO of SBC, said: “SBC Summit is now a truly global meeting point, so building an agenda that reflects that was the natural next step. 

“With the addition of the Global Markets and Emerging Markets stages, we’re offering market-specific insights—and the networking lounges attached to each stage let delegates connect immediately with the people driving growth in those regions. It’s all about continuing the conversations that start on stage with the people most invested in those markets.”

Global Markets Stage

The Global Markets stage is designed for stakeholders looking to optimise their strategies in established, high-value territories where regulatory frameworks are constantly evolving. Across three days, stakeholders can attend a series of panels focusing on key regions, including Latin America and  Brazil, Western Europe, and North America.

Tuesday – Latin America & Brazil Focus: The opening day will examine Latin America’s diverse landscape, from maximising Brazil’s post-regulation opportunities to the latest developments in markets such as Mexico and Peru. Sessions will bring together leaders from LATAM and Brazil to discuss market entry strategies, payment solutions, and successful partnership models across the region’s diverse regulatory environments.

Wednesday – Western Europe Deep Dive: The second day will shift focus to Western Europe’s evolving regulatory landscape, examining how businesses can tackle compliance challenges while leveraging new opportunities. Sessions will address the growing threat of black markets, Italy’s revamped online gambling framework, the Netherlands’ increased regulatory requirements, and potential pathways for iGaming expansion into Finland and the broader Nordic region.

Thursday – North America Analysis: The final day will examine US expansion opportunities following rapid iGaming growth across multiple states. These sessions will explore the rise of alternative betting models, including sweepstakes and prediction markets, alongside the growing popularity of peer-to-peer betting in the region.

Emerging Markets Stage

The Emerging Markets stage will spotlight the most promising regions making waves across the industry. Covering Africa, Eurasia, the Middle East, and Asia, these sessions focus on markets experiencing rising player bases, regulatory reforms, and technological innovations.

Tuesday – Africa Innovation: The opening day will explore mobile-first innovation strategies that are reshaping the African gaming landscape. Sessions will cover payment infrastructure challenges, how operators can successfully engage stakeholders at a local level, and the importance of player protection in the region.

Wednesday – Expansion in Eurasia & the Middle East: Day two will focus on business expansion opportunities in Eurasia, with exciting growth prospects emerging across the Caucasus, Central Asia, and the Balkans. Sessions will also examine the potential for expansion into the Middle East, with panels analysing the UAE’s move towards introducing a gambling framework in the region.

Thursday – Asia Growth Potential: The closing day will examine market entry tactics for Asia’s diverse regulatory environments, with sessions covering licensing pathways, cultural localisation, and strategies for long-term, sustainable growth across key markets like India, the Philippines, and Macau.

The Global Markets and Emerging Markets stages make up two of the six conference stages at SBC Summit 2025. These include dedicated stages for technology, affiliation, player protection, and the Super Stage.
