Refie, the new living interface inside ReferOn, it’s here.

ReferOn, the next-generation affiliate management platform, has launched Refie — a built-in interface layer that gives the platform its own awareness, making interaction faster, clearer, and more human.

Refie represents a new level of interaction within ReferOn, designed to make complex affiliate data easier to perceive and act on through visual feedback that turns system logic into something instantly understandable. He now lives inside the platform’s interface, appearing on onboarding screens and system state pages, where he reflects how the system feels and responds in real time.

Refie isn’t a chatbot or a mascot — he’s an integrated UX layer that connects technical precision with human intuition. By reducing noise and guiding attention naturally, he helps affiliate managers work faster while avoiding mistakes and staying aligned with live performance data.

We like to call this approach “lazy intelligence” — systems that think before you do so you can focus on what actually matters. Refie is the first visible step toward that.

Roadmap: From Awareness to Assistance

Refie’s introduction marks the beginning of ReferOn’s next development stage.
He’s the foundation for what comes next: gamification, engagement, and, ultimately, intelligent assistance. Through him, we’ll introduce a more interactive, rewarding experience where every action feels meaningful. Over time, Refie will evolve from a visual signal into a personal AI agent — the intelligent core of the ReferOn platform.

Vlad Bondarenko, ReferOn’s Head of Product, commented, “Refie isn’t just an add-on or feature — it’s a reflection of how our platform and team think. For years, affiliate platforms have been built for reporting, not for people. We wanted to change that. Refie was born to simplify. He embodies how we think about technology: clarity, control, and connection should feel natural, not forced.

With Refie, ReferOn has learned how to say hi — not with words, but quietly, through awareness. It’s how the system shows it understands what’s happening. He represents the moment ReferOn moved beyond functionality and toward awareness, emotion, and intelligence. The launch goal is to show that the era of faceless B2B tools is ending.”

The ReferOn team will showcase the platform’s latest innovations at SiGMA Central Europe in Rome (Booth 5044). There, attendees can explore the system in action, connect with the team, and experience Refie — the living interface making its first public debut.

To mark the launch of the 100th brand in 2025, SOFTSWISS, an international technology provider with over 15 years in the iGaming sector, will host a unique live show at SiGMA Central Europe 2025: the pit-stop-style assembly of a sports car, which will be gifted to the client behind the milestone brand on the final event day. This will be the first time a real vehicle is assembled live on the floor of an iGaming expo.

Over the three days of the event, a professional crew will assemble an Alfa Romeo 4C Launch Edition in real time, transforming SOFTSWISS Stand 4015 into a high-performance pit lane. This full-scale build sets a new bar for experiential engagement in the iGaming industry, giving attendees the opportunity to take part in assembling a sports car themselves. 

During the show, professional mechanics will demonstrate how racing technology mirrors the architecture behind SOFTSWISS solutions: real-time analytics, scalable platforms, and automation. This three-day showcase will conclude with a symbolic moment – the gifting of the completed vehicle to the SOFTSWISS partner who launched the 100th brand on the company’s software in 2025. The ceremony starts on 6th November at 13:00 at Stand 4015.

“We believe every milestone is a shared success. Launching 100 new brands this year within the SOFTSWISS ecosystem shows the trust our partners place in us, and we’re proud to celebrate this moment together. This car represents precision, collaboration, and speed, the very values that define both racing and iGaming,” said Olga Resiga, Chief Business Development Officer at SOFTSWISS. “But more than that, this live build is a statement: we don’t just talk about innovation, we put it on display – in motion, in real time, and in front of the entire industry.”

Another major moment of the show will be the unveiling of the 2026 iGaming Trends Report – one of the industry’s most anticipated releases. Created in collaboration with NEXT.io, the report will offer a comprehensive outlook on the technology, regulatory shifts, and market dynamics shaping the industry. 

The launch will take place on 5 November from 12:00 to 16:00 CET during the 2026 iGaming Trends Marathon by SOFTSWISS at Stage 2: People, Partners & Performance. The four-hour programme will bring together global experts for keynote sessions and panel discussions covering key challenges and opportunities for the year ahead – from regulatory evolution and player engagement to platform scalability and AI-powered operations. Pre-registration for early access to the full report is now open.
