SoftSwiss vs EveryMatrix 2026: Platform Comparison for Mid-Market Operators

• SoftSwiss suits operators who want a fast launch, native crypto processing, and a simpler integrated tech stack — typically for Curacao, MGA, or emerging-market operations.
• EveryMatrix fits regulated European markets (UK, Nordics, DACH) and operators who need modular architecture or a mature sportsbook as a core product.
• At $3M annual GGR, the total platform cost difference between the two can reach EUR 200,000 — your crypto volume and jurisdiction expansion plan are the two deciding factors.
• Don't evaluate on setup cost alone: model the full 24-month cost including GGR share, payment processing fees, and compliance overhead.

An operator we consulted last quarter spent four months evaluating platforms. They had two finalists: SoftSwiss and EveryMatrix. Both sales teams pitched hard, both offered "competitive" revenue shares, and both demoed impressive back offices. The operator signed with one — and within six months realized the other would have saved them an estimated EUR 180,000 annually at their GGR volume.

The problem wasn't that either platform is bad. Both are genuinely strong. The problem was a mismatch between their operational profile and the platform's strengths. SoftSwiss and EveryMatrix serve overlapping markets but optimize for different operator types, different geographies, and different growth trajectories.

We've worked with operators running on both platforms and reviewed contracts, API documentation, and post-launch feedback from dozens of mid-market brands. This comparison is built on that data — not on feature matrices copied from marketing sites.

1. Company Profiles at a Glance

SoftSwiss

Founded in 2008, SoftSwiss started as a Belarus-based software company and has since evolved into a distributed organization with reportedly over 2,000 employees across multiple offices. The company powers approximately 600+ brands and processes billions in bets annually. SoftSwiss built its reputation on two pillars: crypto-native casino infrastructure and fast onboarding timelines.

Their product suite includes a casino platform, sportsbook (launched 2021), game aggregator (15,000+ games), and an affiliate management system. The company is privately held and has been profitable for years without external funding — a rarity in B2B iGaming.

EveryMatrix

Headquartered in Malta (St. Julian's) with major offices in Stockholm and across Europe and Asia, EveryMatrix takes a modular approach to iGaming infrastructure. Founded in 2008 (same year as SoftSwiss), the company serves approximately 400+ operator clients and has built its reputation around regulated European markets.

Their architecture is split into distinct products: CasinoEngine (game aggregation), OddsMatrix (sportsbook data and platform), MoneyMatrix (payment orchestration), and GamMatrix (player account management). This modular design lets operators adopt components individually rather than buying the full stack.

3. Licensing and Compliance Coverage

This is where the two platforms diverge most sharply.

EveryMatrix has invested heavily in regulated market access. They hold or support operations under MGA, UKGC, Romanian ONJN, Swedish Spelinspektionen, Danish Spillemyndigheden, and several other European jurisdictions. For operators targeting Western Europe — particularly the UK, Nordics, or Germany — EveryMatrix's compliance infrastructure is mature and battle-tested.

Their compliance team provides jurisdiction-specific responsible gambling tools, reality checks, deposit limits, and self-exclusion integrations that meet local requirements out of the box.

SoftSwiss historically focused on Curacao-licensed operations, which made them the default choice for crypto casinos and operators targeting less regulated markets. In recent years, they've expanded into MGA and Estonian licensing, but their regulated-market footprint is still narrower than EveryMatrix's.

Where SoftSwiss excels is speed of compliance for Curacao-class jurisdictions. If you're launching a crypto-friendly casino targeting LATAM, Asia, or other emerging markets, SoftSwiss can get you operational faster because their platform is pre-configured for those regulatory frameworks.

4. Game Aggregation and Content

Both platforms operate their own game aggregators, but the numbers tell different stories.

EveryMatrix's CasinoEngine reportedly integrates 25,000+ games from 300+ studios. It's one of the largest independent aggregators in the market and has won multiple EGR B2B Awards for innovation. CasinoEngine operates as a standalone product — operators using competing platforms can still license it separately. This independence means EveryMatrix invests heavily in the aggregator as a profit center, not just a feature.

CasinoEngine offers granular game management: operators can configure RTP variants by jurisdiction, run A/B tests on game placement, and access detailed game-level analytics. For operators who consider content strategy a competitive advantage, this level of control matters.

SoftSwiss Game Aggregator offers approximately 15,000+ games from 250+ providers. While the raw numbers are lower, SoftSwiss has a different advantage: their aggregator is tightly integrated with the casino platform, meaning less middleware, faster game launches, and a unified back office. The trade-off is fewer studio options versus tighter platform integration.

SoftSwiss has also been aggressive about onboarding new studios, particularly those producing crash games, instant-win titles, and crypto-native content — game types that align with their operator base.

5. Payment Processing

EveryMatrix's MoneyMatrix is a dedicated payment orchestration layer supporting reportedly 200+ payment service providers across 150+ currencies. It includes smart routing (automatic failover between PSPs), built-in cashier UI components, and compliance-grade transaction monitoring.

MoneyMatrix handles the complexity of multi-jurisdiction payment compliance — different deposit limits, different KYC triggers, different reporting requirements per market. For operators in regulated European markets where payment compliance is heavily scrutinized, this is a significant advantage.

SoftSwiss takes a more integrated approach. Their payment module supports 100+ traditional PSPs plus native integration with 20+ cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Tether, and several altcoins. Crypto transactions are processed natively — not through third-party converters — which means faster settlements and lower fees for crypto volume.

For operators where crypto represents 30%+ of deposits (common in Curacao-licensed casinos), SoftSwiss's native crypto processing is a tangible cost advantage. Processing crypto through a traditional PSP typically adds 1-3% in conversion fees that SoftSwiss eliminates.

6. API Architecture and Technical Flexibility

EveryMatrix was designed as a modular system from the ground up. Each component (CasinoEngine, OddsMatrix, MoneyMatrix, GamMatrix) exposes its own API surface and can be adopted independently. This microservices-oriented architecture means operators can replace individual modules with third-party alternatives without ripping out the entire stack.

The practical benefit: if you outgrow OddsMatrix's sportsbook capabilities, you can swap in Kambi or Betgenius without migrating your casino, payments, or player management. We've seen operators do exactly this — a painful process with monolithic platforms, a manageable project with EveryMatrix.

Their API documentation is generally well-maintained, and they offer sandbox environments for integration testing. Response times for API support reportedly average 24-48 hours for technical queries.

SoftSwiss offers a full-featured REST API, but the architecture is more tightly coupled. The platform, aggregator, and payment system are designed to work as an integrated stack. The advantage is fewer integration points and a simpler technical setup. The trade-off is less flexibility to mix components from different vendors.

SoftSwiss's technical onboarding is notably fast — operators report going from contract to live integration in as little as two to four weeks for standard white-label setups. This speed comes partly from the integrated architecture: fewer moving parts means fewer integration headaches.

For custom builds, SoftSwiss offers API access for game management, player data, reporting, and bonus systems. The documentation is adequate though less granular than EveryMatrix's modular API docs.

7. Pricing Models

Neither company publishes fixed pricing, and final terms depend on projected volumes, jurisdictions, and negotiation. What follows is based on market data and operator feedback — not official rate cards.

SoftSwiss Pricing (Estimated)

• White-label setup: EUR 10,000-30,000 one-time
• Monthly platform fee: EUR 3,000-7,000 (varies by configuration)
• GGR share: Typically 5-15% depending on volume commitments
• Game aggregator: Included in platform or separate at 1-3% GGR
• Crypto processing: No additional percentage (built-in)

EveryMatrix Pricing (Estimated)

• Platform setup: EUR 30,000-80,000 depending on modules selected
• Monthly fees: EUR 5,000-15,000 (varies by module combination)
• GGR share: Typically 7-15% for full-stack deployments
• CasinoEngine standalone: Separate pricing, typically 1-4% GGR
• MoneyMatrix: Transaction-based pricing plus monthly fee

Cost Comparison for a $3M GGR Operator

At $3M annual GGR (a realistic mid-market scenario), the total annual platform cost difference between the two can range from EUR 50,000 to EUR 200,000 — depending heavily on the module configuration and negotiated rates. Operators with significant crypto volume typically find SoftSwiss more cost-effective. Operators needing multi-jurisdiction compliance and modular flexibility often find EveryMatrix's higher base cost justified by reduced compliance overhead.

8. Geographic Strengths

SoftSwiss Dominates

• CIS and Eastern Europe: Deep operator network, localized support
• Crypto-first markets: Global, particularly LATAM and Asia
• Curacao-licensed operations: Pre-built compliance, fastest launches
• Emerging markets: Africa, Southeast Asia where regulatory barriers are lower

EveryMatrix Dominates

• Western Europe: UK, Nordics, Germany, Spain, Italy
• Regulated EU markets: Pre-certified compliance in 10+ jurisdictions
• North America: Growing presence in US/Canada regulated iGaming
• Mature markets: Where regulatory complexity is the primary barrier to entry

Overlap Zones

Both compete actively in MGA-licensed operations, LATAM (particularly Brazil and Mexico as they regulate), and the growing African market. In these territories, the decision typically comes down to crypto requirements and pricing rather than geographic capability.

9. Scalability and Growth Path

SoftSwiss handles scale through volume. Their infrastructure reportedly processes over 2 billion bets per month across all clients. For operators planning rapid growth in player volume — particularly in crypto — the platform has proven it can handle the load.

The growth limitation with SoftSwiss is typically regulatory expansion. If you start with Curacao and later need UK or Swedish licensing, you may face significant re-platforming work or need to run parallel instances.

EveryMatrix scales through modularity. As operators grow, they can add modules (sportsbook, poker, payment orchestration) without migrating. Their architecture also supports multi-brand operations from a single back office — useful for operators running casino, sportsbook, and poker as separate brands.

The growth consideration with EveryMatrix is cost. Their modular pricing means each new capability adds to the monthly bill. An operator running CasinoEngine + OddsMatrix + MoneyMatrix + GamMatrix pays for four products, which at scale can be more expensive than SoftSwiss's bundled approach.

10. Which Platform Fits Your Profile

Choose SoftSwiss if:

• Crypto is a core part of your deposit mix (30%+ projected)
• You need to launch fast (under 4 weeks) with a white-label model
• Your initial jurisdiction is Curacao, MGA, or Estonia
• You want a simpler, integrated tech stack with fewer moving parts
• You're cost-sensitive on setup and want lower minimum investment
• Your target markets are CIS, LATAM, Asia, or emerging regions

Choose EveryMatrix if:

• You're targeting regulated European markets (UK, Nordics, DACH)
• You want modular architecture with the ability to swap components
• Sportsbook is a core product line (not an add-on)
• You plan to operate in 3+ regulated jurisdictions simultaneously
• You value game content breadth (25,000+ titles) as a differentiator
• You want the flexibility to use CasinoEngine independently of the full platform

Consider both further if:

• You're MGA-focused with moderate crypto volume — this is the overlap zone where both platforms compete directly, and your negotiating power is highest
• You're entering Brazil or Mexico — both are investing in these markets, and the early mover may offer better terms
