A year of research, development, and growth: Slotegrator’s 2023 recap
2023 was a great and productive year for Slotegrator, one full of reflection and solid research. Now it’s time to look at what goals were fulfilled and what new goals Slotegrator should set.
For Slotegrator, 2023 was a year of thorough research, deep insights, rethinking, and qualitative growth. During the year, the Slotegrator team visited key countries in its main markets (Europe, LatAm, Asia, Africa), learned all the new trends, and became convinced that it had chosen the right path and way of development.
The Slotegrator team visited many iGaming events in 2023. Among them were SiGMA Asia in the Philippines, ASEAN Gaming Summit Philippines, GAT Expo Colombia, Spice India, SAGSE Latam, Casino Beats Summit, Belgrade Future Gaming, Central European Gambling Summit 2023 (CEGS23), Romania, and SBC Summit Tbilisi. We also presented with a stand at several expos, including SiGMA Malta, SBC Summit Barcelona, SiGMA Cyprus, iGB LiVE Amsterdam, SiGMA Brazilian iGaming Summit, SiGMA Eurasia in Dubai, ICE London, and SiGMA Africa in Kenya.
Ayvar Gabidullin, business development manager at Slotegrator, comments: “Expanding into key markets around the world is crucial for international gambling providers like Slotegrator, and we keep searching for new opportunities to contribute to our clients’ growth.”
A quick look back at the most noteworthy events of the year:
- 2023 was very eventful in terms of gambling market regulations. Slotegrator stayed on top of every little detail that could potentially be important for the company’s clients. This year Slotegrator created and presented an interactive map with the most relevant information about the gambling laws. The map is constantly updated.
- Cutting-edge, in-demand technologies were implemented in the company’s products and solutions. For example, the turnkey platform was updated with new modules and features for smoother and more optimized online casino and sportsbook management: the Casino Builder module for easy alterations of website UX, the KYC module for more efficient AI-driven player verification in compliance with regulatory requirements, the Anti-fraud module to identify suspicious behavior, the Artificial BI module for quick and effective analysis of platform metrics, the Bonus module for a quick adjustment of bonus campaigns, and other features like Progress bar, a Wheel of Fortune, and integration of ChatGPT.
- The company also reaffirmed its status as one of the pioneers of the Telegram Casino solution — this product is only becoming more and more popular due the growing popularity of portable gambling and the messaging app itself.
- Among other important trends in the iGaming industry is a focus on regulatory compliance and responsible gambling. The Slotegrator team has noticed a growing interest in ESG in the industry. Paying attention to this issue is a sign that the industry realizes the importance of safe and responsible gambling, and that it begins with leading companies like Slotegrator.
- The Slotegrator team constantly collects and updates information about new technologies, game types, payment methods, and player behavior. In an industry that evolves as fast as iGaming, relevant, up-to-date knowledge is essential — which is why the company produces so much informative material in Slotegrator Academy. In December 2023, Slotegrator released a detailed report about modern players. You can download it here, and watch a video overview at Slotegrator Academy.

The Betting and Gaming Council (BGC) has warned that proposed new tax measures for the UK gambling industry could lead to a significant rise in harmful illegal gambling.
The Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) admitted that the tax plans will reduce projected yield by around one-third, including £500 million lost by 2029-30 as consumers switch away from the regulated sector and towards the black market.
The OBR also states that around 90% of the duty increases will be passed on to consumers through higher prices or reduced payouts, making regulated products less attractive. It warns this will distort the market and drive more customers towards the illegal black market, where there are no protections, no tax contributions and no safer gambling checks.
Despite these warnings, the Government continues to claim the measures will raise £1.1 billion, a figure that industry experts, independent analysts including EY, and the BGC believe will not be achieved.
Grainne Hurst, Chief Executive of the Betting and Gaming Council, said: “The Government’s own figures show these tax plans will cause significant damage. Industry analysis based on modelling from EY finds that nearly 17,000 high-tech jobs will be lost across online betting and gaming, with over £6 billion in stakes diverted to the black market – a 140% increase in its size.
“These proposals also threaten shop closures, further job losses and a less competitive online market, meaning lower, not higher, long-term tax revenues. They also push more customers to the black market, where there are no protections, no taxes and no safeguards.”
The regulated betting and gaming sector currently contributes £6.8 billion to the UK economy, supports over 109,000 jobs, and provides £4 billion in taxes, including vital funding for racing, sport and tourism. But further tax rises threaten to weaken one of the UK’s most internationally competitive digital industries at a time when the illegal market is expanding rapidly.

The total gambling spend in October 2025 amounted to DKK 599 million, which corresponds to a decrease of 3.4 per cent compared to October 2024. The statistics show that the decrease for the total gambling market is due to a large fluctuation in the betting market in October 2025 compared to October 2024.
