SOFTSWISS has provided support for victims of the recent flooding in Poland as part of its ongoing global charity work.

Following a recent campaign to support victims in flood-hit regions in Brazil, the igaming solutions provider has launched a similar initiative in Southern Poland, a region devastated by floods caused by Storm Boris last month.

After dozens of towns were forced to undertake urgent evacuations, SOFTSWISS has made a financial donation to Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy, a Polish charity providing aid for flood victims.

The provider will also make use of its two development offices based in Poland, with SOFTSWISS employees helping to pack boxes of over 100kg of essential items, such as food, hygiene products, matches, candles and batteries.

These items were then delivered to Caritas Polska, another charitable organisation focussed on relief efforts in flood-hit areas.

Through its research, Spelinspektionen’s new method determined that four indicators need to be used to calculate the channelisation rate: a questionnaire survey for players, measurement of internet traffic, estimati..
