City-building hub spaces are a growing trend in casino, but Cash Frenzy’s Cashtopia is the first time we’ve seen a hub space for a social event (rather than a single-player event or feature). Hub spaces connect to apps’ major features, provide multiple progressions, and introduce new opportunities for customization and cosmetic rewards—which creates new ways for casino apps to sustain engagement and drive spend.
VIP systems are essential for driving traffic to web stores in casino apps. In this month’s Headline Release, we analyze Huuuge Casino’s Huuuge Rewards, which revamps the app’s VIP program to include perks that can only be claimed within Huuuge Casino’s web store. All casino apps with external platforms should link VIP programs to their web stores, where it’s easier to gather user data, create targeted offers, and avoid platforms’ transaction fees.
This month’s Casino Headline Release looks at how Jackpot World’s Waves & Wins drives engagement and spend by tying a unique cooking mini-game to multiple reward progressions and purchases. Events that contain multiple mini-events, like Waves & Wins, are common in the core market but rare in the casino market. Casino apps may want to experiment with this type of event, as our data suggests that these events perform relatively well in casino apps.

Cash Frenzy’s Cash Go is SpinX’s third Coin Master-inspired feature with deep mechanics. Cash Go offers 60 stages, pets that grant bonuses, a prize wheel, and daily login rewards. In a similar feature released in 2019, Jackpot World’s Dreamy Voyage, SpinX introduced additional features over time, so SpinX will likely take a similar approach with Cash Go. SpinX also released a Coin-Master inspired machine in Lotsa Slots, although it uses less complex systems.
