At the end of 2022, Altenar reflected on a year of success that positioned the sportsbook software provider as “one of the top sportsbook solutions providers” globally — expanding into both established and emerging markets and growing its client base worldwide.
2022 was a year of growth, innovation, new hires, and overall expansion for Altenar. This article highlights the achievements of various teams across the company.
Taken from the company’s all-hands meeting, here’s what Altenar’s CEO, COO, and leadership team had to say about 2022 — and how this year’s growth shaped the company’s direction and culture.
“We’ve increased our sales by more than 50%, and the company has grown organically, just as expected. This year, we achieved company-wide security certification, launched new products and features, secured tier-one customers, opened new offices, and more. I believe the key is Altenar’s ability to adapt — whether to uncertainty or change — and still emerge stronger. That’s exactly what we’ve done this year.” - Stanislav Silin, CEO & Co-Founder
“Staying dynamic, building a growing team, and maintaining quality in everything we do will drive our continued growth in 2023. Altenar challenges the status quo — not only across the company, but within each individual — and that’s truly remarkable.” - Stanislav Silin, CEO & Co-Founder
“2022 has been a challenging and exciting year, and I expect 2023 to be even more interesting for Altenar. We set some ambitious targets last year, and I’d say we’ve done fairly well in achieving them. Early in 2022, we made a plan for how to move forward — and within our company, we committed to delivering one of the best sportsbooks in the world. Today, I can confidently say that we have one of the best products out there.” - Dinos Stranomitis, COO & Co-Founder
“For 2023, we want to be able to say — ‘We are the best sportsbook in the world!’” - Dinos Stranomitis, COO & Co-Founder
“I’d like to start by thanking everyone at Altenar for the success of our year and the strength of our product. It’s the design, dedication, and collaboration of every team that brought these results to life. We launched SB1 and successfully migrated clients to SB2 — which has driven significant growth in sportsbook turnover. In January, we processed 25 million bets per month, and now we’ve reached 50 million bets monthly.” - Antonis Karakousis, Director of Operations
“We’ve expanded into new territories and continued to thrive in our established markets. We introduced enhanced marketing tools such as Early Payout, built our segmentation and user profile tools for real-time insights, revamped the Cashout feature, launched Bet Builder, and developed our Terminal project — which now has over 180 active points with a full retail solution. Just one year ago, that was only a proof of concept.” - Antonis Karakousis, Director of Operations
“Another major milestone for Altenar is the creation of a dedicated department for the standalone project ‘Altenar Data Feed,’ where we leverage our own data to power the sportsbook. Integrating this with the core SB platform enabled us to build Bet Builder with in-house data — something that didn’t even exist a year ago. It’s a clear demonstration of what we accomplished in 2022.” - Antonis Karakousis, Director of Operations
“Altenar’s native mobile app (MOA) has been a great success. It, too, was just a proof of concept one year ago.” - Antonis Karakousis, Director of Operations
“The application of widget technology to our front end and the ability to create any skin is now approaching full automation — a huge achievement for Altenar in 2022.” - Albert Urbanovich, Head of UX Design
“As part of the Altenar Gaming Platform, we’ve introduced new features and products, and implemented self-exclusion and responsible gaming tools — with great success.” - Liliia Alenina, Head of AGP Product Management
“For tech operations, we’ve been successful in growing our capabilities — especially in terms of people. We set a goal to scale out, and I’m happy to see that in almost every area we now have talented individuals making a real difference to their teams and to the company. One particular success I’d like to highlight is the expansion of the automation team, both in size and structure.” - Konrad Pizzuto, Director of Technology Operations
“The Altenar Intelligence Platform (AIP) will deliver high-impact analytics and insights to the organization. We’ve learned a lot this year, and one key milestone was deploying our liability reporting tool — a real-time data streaming application capable of processing millions of bets per hour. From a data science perspective, we’re developing several exciting machine learning applications within the AIP platform, including market abnormality detection, player segmentation, behavioral pattern analysis, and user-specific recommendations.” - Darren Willenberg, Senior Data Analyst
“In terms of company presence, we’ve opened new offices and expanded significantly in the Isle of Man, where we’re seeing a strong, collaborative team culture. We aim to maintain and scale that culture going forward. Our headcount in the Isle of Man alone has grown by 600%.” - John Quaye, CFO
Here’s to an even more successful 2023, as Altenar welcomes new team members, expands its portfolio of products and features, and continues growing its global footprint with a dynamic, quality-driven, and competitive workforce.
