Altenar’s upgraded Toto tool allows operators to offer players an exciting alternative to traditional sportsbook betting.


Known by different names around the world, “pools” betting invites players to predict the outcomes of numerous soccer matches for a chance to win large prizes from small stakes.


In our detailed guide to this sportsbook feature, we explore how it works, the challenges it solves, and the advantages it offers.


How Toto Works


The Toto tool is an enhanced version of a previous model, introducing expanded functionality to support more dynamic campaign creation.


Whether it’s predicting match outcomes or exact scores, the format is fully customizable—along with the payout structure—so operators can guarantee weekly prizes or build rollover jackpots to boost engagement.


For instance, players might be asked to predict the results of 14 soccer matches across a weekend, with rewards for a defined number of correct picks. The operator sets the entry fee, and a percentage of the stake can be added to each prize tier.


For an additional fee, users can also predict goal range totals within those fixtures to unlock extra prizes.


To launch a new campaign, the following settings are configured:


  • General settings – Game name, start and end date/time

  • Currency settings – Select supported currencies and stakes

  • Payout settings – Define prize distribution

  • Events – Choose matches to include

  • Total goals game – Enable goal range predictions, entry fee, range limits, and additional prize tiers


On the tool’s main screen, there are two tabs: one displays all active games, and the other manages the order of games shown on the front end.


Problems Toto Solves


New bettors may find themselves overwhelmed by the vast number of events and betting markets on a typical sportsbook site. For casual players who wager small amounts occasionally, this complexity can be discouraging.


On the other hand, seasoned users might seek new experiences to complement their usual betting habits.


The Toto-style prediction format provides a straightforward and entertaining option that appeals to a broad global audience.


Benefits of Toto for Users


Many sports bettors dream of landing a life-changing payout, similar to lottery or jackpot wins in the casino world.


The Toto game provides that opportunity with a mix of skill and luck. Offering this type of pool betting helps sportsbooks increase site traffic and player retention by giving users a fresh reason to log in regularly.


Adding goal range features also helps increase stakes and operator revenues, while maximizing interest in this unique style of gameplay.


Comparison with Competitive Solutions


Pools betting is nothing new. In Italy, Totocalcio was the only legal form of soccer betting until the 1990s, while football pools were once massively popular in the UK until the rise of the National Lottery shifted public interest.


In Latin America, pools have long been a hit, and Altenar’s new version builds on that tradition with enhanced functionality and operator control.


The flexible payout structure, customizable entry settings, and optional goal range betting add significant value. Operators can tailor the game to their strategy while offering players a compelling and rewarding experience.


Conclusion


Altenar’s Toto product is a modern evolution of a popular feature that saw major uptake in Latin America and now brings value to global markets.


With fresh functionalities that boost customization and engagement, this tool enhances user acquisition, increases retention, and helps drive revenue growth.
