Overview
iSoftBet is a Malta-based online casino game company launched in 2010. It is a game studio that makes its own slots, and it also runs a game distribution platform (aggregator) that collects games from other studios and supplies them to casinos.
In 2022, US-based IGT acquired iSoftBet, and in 2025 private equity firm Apollo bought IGT’s gaming and digital business, so it is now part of the new IGT group.

What a game distribution platform (aggregator) is
For an online casino to integrate games from dozens of providers separately takes a lot of time and cost. An aggregator bundles games from many providers into one, so a casino integrates just once and can use thousands of games. iSoftBet’s GAP distributes its own games together with those of partner studios. Companies like Games Global, SoftSwiss, and Everymatrix play similar roles.
Game features
- Hold & Win – it often uses a structure where coin symbols are collected with respins (Hold & Spin)
- Twisted Mechanics – iSoftBet’s own reel variation feature
- Megaways – it licensed the mechanic early from Big Time Gaming and released several Megaways games (Megaways)
- Branded slots – it also makes slots using real brands such as movies and TV (branded slots)
Market
It has received game certification in several regulated markets, including the UK, Sweden, Denmark, Malta, Italy, Spain, Greece, Romania, and Ontario, Canada. Since joining the IGT group, its games are distributed together with IGT’s North American online business.
