Agilysys Signs Hospitality Deal with INSPIRE Entertainment Resort
Agilysys Inc., a leading global provider of hospitality software solutions that deliver High Return Hospitality, announced a meaningful addition to its Asia-Pacific customer portfolio: Mohegan INSPIRE Entertainment Resort (Mohegan INSPIRE), which when completed will be the largest hotel-retail-entertainment complex in South Korea.
Agilysys will deliver multiple hospitality systems to the property, including its core property management (PMS) and point-of-sale (POS) systems. The deal signifies key advancements for Agilysys in the Asia-Pacific region, including its first casino property and large-scale PMS deployment in South Korea.
Projected to open in 2023 as a $5 billion entertainment resort ultimately spanning more than 500,000 square meters, Mohegan INSPIRE is located an hour outside of Seoul and within the Incheon International Airport’s IBC development area, a major hub to Northeast Asia. Once completed, the complex will feature a three-tower luxury hotel with more than 1300 five-star and six-star guest rooms, more than 20,000 square meters of luxury retail space, more than 20 food and beverage concepts, a 20,000 square meter casino, and the largest entertainment arena in South Korea.
Hospitality-focused innovation and the ability to deliver diverse personalised guest experiences at scale were meaningful considerations for the team evaluating systems to span the property.
Ioan Mitulescu, vice president of information technology for Mohegan INSPIRE Entertainment Resort, said: “In order to future-proof our investment, it was important to our team to select a technology provider with extensive hospitality experience, an accelerating pace of ongoing innovation and a commitment to hospitality-focused research and development. Agilysys brings all three to the table, and we look forward to the level of guest engagement and exceptional personalized experiences that we will be able to provide through these integrated and feature-rich hospitality software solutions.”
The Mohegan INSPIRE team selected Agilysys’ Hospitality Cloud solutions in part for interoperability with other systems and the ability to create and maintain a single unified profile for each guest. The systems will help staff understand each guest’s preferences and interests across the many lodging, dining, activity, casino and other entertainment options the property will offer. The technology’s ability to scale easily to accommodate long-term growth while also ensuring a high Return on Experience (ROE) over time by adapting to changing guest and staff expectations also was a deciding factor in the selection.
Agilysys solutions help properties enable the highest ROE through staff-facing functionality that creates more engaged and empowered staff members as well as guest-facing features that ensure experiences at every touchpoint avoid disappointment and create champions so that guests return more often, spend more and post stronger reviews.
“The diversity of experiences that will be available at Mohegan INSPIRE is truly ground-breaking and we are proud to have our hospitality solutions acknowledged as the best choice for serving the broad needs of staff and guests at such an iconic property. Our 100-percent focus on delivering optimal hospitality experiences informs the future-forward research and development that keeps our solutions ahead in terms of versatility, scale and adaptability, all of which are vital to hospitality leaders in the Asia-Pacific region,” said Andrew Cox, APAC managing director for Agilysys.

Soft2Bet Launches Swiper – Sweden’s First Social-Media-Style Casino
Soft2Bet has launched Swiper, Sweden’s first online casino built around the swipe-driven navigation popularised by social media apps. Specifically designed for mobile users, Swiper enables players to effortlessly discover, select, and play games using just their thumb. Operating under a licence from the Swedish Gambling Authority, Swiper offers players a secure, responsible, and fully compliant gaming environment.
Soft2Bet, a leading turnkey provider of highly localised and engagement-driven iGaming solutions, has introduced Swiper, a new brand explicitly developed with Swedish players in mind. Many elements of Swiper have been carefully localised, including onboarding, payment methods, and game certification, to ensure they resonate fully with Swedish preferences and comply seamlessly with Spelinspektionen standards. By integrating BankID verification and instant transactions via Swish, players can quickly register, deposit, and withdraw, while remaining securely connected to Spelpaus, Sweden’s national self-exclusion system.
At the heart of Swiper is a personalised, endless feed of short-form video clips highlighting new releases, jackpots, and live-dealer action, similar to browsing stories on TikTok. Every swipe is enhanced by Soft2Bet’s proprietary MEGA (Motivational Engineering Gaming Application) engine, which delivers tailored missions, quests, and rewards designed to increase player engagement, session duration, and lifetime value.
Here’s a video showing how the Swiper works: https://youtu.be/_a3DvwX60bc
This launch builds on Soft2Bet’s proven success with localised brands, such as Betinia and CampoBet, and its recent partnerships, which have created dedicated local divisions and leagues. With Swiper, Soft2Bet takes localisation even further by introducing SEK wallets, dedicated Swedish-speaking dealers, and fully customised mobile apps, demonstrating a clear commitment to adapting each brand to local culture, regulatory standards, and player preferences.
Yoel Zuckerberg, Chief Product Officer at Soft2Bet, commented: “A great customer experience starts with cultural relevance. Swiper looks, feels and functions exactly like a Swedish app, because we’ve intentionally built it around Swedish user habits, from BankID logins and Swish payments to RNG certifications aligned with existing standards. Players can expect endless social-style content that feels completely authentic to their local experience.”
Swiper introduces several key features tailored specifically to Swedish players:
- One-handed swipe navigation for rapid game discovery
- Over 85,000 live and 70,000 pre-match sports betting events covering diverse sports markets with competitive odds
- Localised promotions tied directly to Swedish events and holidays
- The design is adapted to local player preferences and cultural context
In 2025, Soft2Bet successfully launched multiple brands and deployed several innovative MEGA engines across Europe, significantly redefining the local player experience. The Swiper launch further demonstrates Soft2Bet’s capability in converting its advanced B2B technology into engaging, highly localised, market-leading B2C products across 11 regulated markets.

BOS in letter to the Government: appoint a new Gambling Inquiry
BOS – The Swedish Trade Association for Online Gambling – is today sending a letter to the Ministry of Finance with a proposal to appoint a new gambling inquiry. The inquiry’s task should be to propose measures that strengthen the proportion of legal, licensed gambling in Sweden, that is, the so-called channelization.
The Swedish Gambling Authority confirmed earlier this week in a report that the state’s goal with the gambling policy regarding its channelization is not being reached. The goal is at least 90 percent channelization, but Sweden only reaches 85 percent. And for online casino, the product category where it is most important for consumer protection reasons that the proportion of legally licensed gambling is the highest, it is actually the lowest (72-82%).
During September this year, government investigator Marcus Isgren is expected to present a proposal that aims to strengthen channelization within one area, namely the so-called scope of application of the Gambling Act. It is a welcome proposal, but few stakeholders believe that this single adjustment is enough to achieve the goal of the gambling policy, at least 90 percent channelization.
For this reason, BOS is proposing today in its letter to the Ministry of Finance that the government appoint a new broad gambling inquiry, with the task of proposing measures that strengthen channelization in the Swedish gambling market. Among the proposals that should be considered, BOS mentions a somewhat less rigid regulation of loyalty bonuses, which are currently completely prohibited.
BOS Secretary General Gustaf Hoffstedt comments:
“We hope that the government will take to heart the serious situation for the licensed gambling market, most recently confirmed in the Gambling Authority’s report on the proportion of unlicensed gambling in Sweden. The appointment of a broad inquiry tasked with preventing leakage to the unlicensed gambling market would undoubtedly be this government’s most important measure to protect and strengthen the legal regulated gambling market, before Sweden goes to the polls in September next year.”
