Raketech strengthens its position in the US with sport acquisition

Raketech, the iGaming performance marketing partner, today announced the acquisition of the assets of A.T.S. Consultants Inc (A.T.S.), a leading tipster asset providing tailored pre-game insights for sports, with key assets Winnersandwhiners.com, Statsalt.com and Pickpapa.com. The pre-game insights are served to sports fans across the US by a dedicated team of experts located in Baltimore, US. As a result of the acquisition, Raketech’s US revenues are expected to reach up to 20% percent of the group’s total already during Q1 2022. At the same time, Raketech’s sports segment is expected to reach up to 35% percent of the group’s total.
The agreed purchase price amounts to USD 15.5m (EUR 13.4m) on a cash and debt free basis. The purchase price will be settled in a cash payment of USD 12m (EUR 10.4m) as per Closing and through an additional cash payment of USD 1m six months post Closing. The additional purchase price will be settled through issuance of new Raketech (RAKE) shares amounting to USD 2.5m (EUR 2.1m). The number of Raketech shares issued will be determined by the volume-weighted RAKE share price 30 trading days prior to the date of the Closing. Further, the issued RAKE shares will be subject to a lock-up of 36 months following completion of the transaction. The purchase price represents a multiple of approximately 6x EBITDA and 2.5x revenues for the last twelve months, with the possibility of additional earnout payments based on certain performance measures 36 months post closing.
The acquisition complements Raketech’s US asset portfolio and includes 20 employees in Baltimore. The business model which is based on user subscriptions and sale of picks (tips) will furthermore be complemented with all of Raketech’s existing marketing services such as traditional affiliation, media sales and CRM. The A.T.S. team will continue to operate from Baltimore, led by A.T.S. current CEO Jordan Abrams and form Raketech’s local office in the US.
Oskar Mühlbach, CEO of Raketech said: “I am thrilled that we are able to follow up the latest acquisition of P&P Vegas Group with yet another strategically important acquisition in the US. This market is of specific interest to us as it is expected to grow substantially within the next years. And I believe that adding Raketech’s commercials and operational ability to the acquired assets is a great way to maximize this opportunity”.
He continues: “I am also excited to have the talented A.T.S. team on board, and I am looking forward to combining our commercial models and to share technology and know-how between us. Furthermore, as Raketech already offers sports insights and betting tips in the US, there are obvious opportunities to cross-promote and collaborate across our ecosystem of assets to provide even better service to the end user as well as even better marketing opportunities for our clients, the operators”.
The acquisition will be closed no later than December 15th 2021 and be settled using Raketech’s current cash together with funding from Raketech’s credit facility.

ReferOn Launches Three Powerful New Features for Smarter Affiliate Management

ReferOn, the next-gen affiliate management system, has introduced three major features aimed at making affiliate operations faster, smoother and more scalable than ever.
The latest updates, including Async task tracking, affiliate-controlled postbacks and bulk payment generation, reflect ReferOn’s ongoing commitment to removing friction and empowering users with practical and efficient tools.
- Async Tasks: Say goodbye to frozen screens, slow loading and laggy sessions. The new system handles background-heavy processes such as bulk payments asynchronously (and with real-time tracking). This ensures smoother overall performance where users can monitor complex actions without overloading their session.
- Affiliate-Controlled Postbacks: Affiliates can now manage their own postback setup directly in the platform (when enabled by their manager). No more tickets, long email threads or tedious back-and-forth communication. Campaigns go live faster and everyone moves more efficiently and with less delay.
- Bulk Payment Generation: One of the more repetitive recurring workflows for users just became radically more efficient (and easy). Users can now generate payments for multiple partners in bulk with just a few clicks, freeing up time for higher-impact work.
Vladyslav Bondarenko, ReferOn’s Head of Product, commented on the new features, “At ReferOn, we design for scale, efficiency and performance. These new features are more than simple improvements, they represent the foundations of a more autonomous, convenient and resilient system. We’re about empowering both operators and affiliates, and we’ve done that by providing self-service and streamlined tools to keep control in their hands. The ReferOn team continues to deliver on our promise of user empowerment without complexity.”

Affilka by SOFTSWISS Unveils Updates for Affiliates

Affilka by SOFTSWISS, an award-winning affiliate management software platform, has announced a suite of new product updates for the affiliates. The latest release introduces a Traffic Report with advanced clicks analytics, an API for extracting campaigns and tracking links, and a sub-affiliate NGR-based revenue share model.
Traffic Report: In-depth Click Analysis
This new Traffic Report focuses on detailed click-level analytics, offering in-depth insights into clicks, registrations, deposits, and conversion rates such as click-to-reg and click-to-FTD – all in one place. It includes several key features for flexible data analysis:
- Multi-dimensional filtering and data grouping: The report enables users to filter and break down the data into granular views across multiple dimensions, offering detailed insights by traffic source, campaign, country, device type, IP address, and more. Notably, click data is transferred to the report in real time, providing instant visibility into user activity.
- CSV data export: The report supports one-click CSV export, allowing affiliates to easily download raw data for offline analysis or sharing.
- Historical data access: Affiliates can review traffic statistics from 1 January 2023, enabling year-on-year comparisons and long-term trend evaluation.
Gleb Bichan, Product Lead at Affilka by SOFTSWISS, comments: “At Affilka, we know how crucial it is for operators and affiliates alike to make data-driven decisions. That’s why we’re introducing tools like the Traffic Report to help partners become more productive and uncover new insights faster.”
API for Marketing Campaigns and Tracking Links
In addition to the existing Reports API, affiliates can now access data on their marketing campaigns and tracking links directly via API, allowing for automated data extraction and custom integrations. With this API access, users can retrieve up-to-date lists of marketing campaigns, promo codes, and related performance metrics directly via API calls. This improvement helps Affilka clients automate their reporting workflows and integrate affiliate data with external BI tools, reducing manual effort and ensuring timely access to key information.
New Sub-affiliate Revenue Share Model
Responding to client feedback, Affilka’s team also features a new sub-affiliate reward type. This allows affiliates to earn a commission based on the Net Gaming Revenue (NGR) generated by players referred by their sub-affiliates, offering a more direct revenue-sharing approach. By aligning earnings with the actual revenue brought in by sub-affiliates, the update incentivises collaboration and gives experienced affiliates a stronger stake in mentoring their referred partners.
Gleb Bichan adds: “For us, it’s important that affiliates not only use the product but also feel it’s built with their real needs in mind. We regularly gather feedback and implement improvements that make daily workflows more transparent and efficient. Features like the Traffic Report, API access, and new reward types are direct responses to partner requests – and we’re not stopping there. We plan to introduce even more tools designed to simplify affiliate operations, so stay tuned for upcoming updates.”
Affilka by SOFTSWISS will be presented at iGB in London from 3 to 4 July 2025. Attendees of the event can learn more about new features directly from the Affilka team and see how these innovations support better affiliate programme management.
