Leading sportsbook supplier BtoBet, has published its latest Industry Report focusing on the upcoming World Cup which will be a unique sports event from a number of perspectives.

Not only will this be the first World Cup to be hosted in the Middle East, but for the first time in tournament history this major event will take place during winter time, with leagues around the world taking a winter break allowing the national teams to take part in this prestigious tournament.

These unique set of circumstances will feature back-to-back sports events which will also characterise the post-tournament phase, with domestic leagues resuming after only a handful of days after the Final takes place.

What this does is create a unique opportunity for bookmakers to acquire players and retain their engagement post-tournament by providing a content offering and betting products which are scalable beyond the World Cup.

BtoBet’s “World Cup Betting Focus” also analyses bookmakers’ needs and requirements to leverage the landscape the unique events surrounding this year’s tournament, and how to increase the ARPU by heightening player engagement during and in the post-tournament phase.

The report focuses particularly on the need for bookmakers to:
• Have a solid pre-match and live offering
• Maximise the stacking of matches
• Provide a localised World Cup offering to fill the gaps between events
• Have at their disposal data-driven tools to maximise player engagement

Aspire Global’s BtoBet has signed an agreement with entertainment company Long Island to power its LatAm-focused “Smashup” brand. Smashup is amongst the first partners to be powered by BtoBet’s cutting-edge sportsbook platform via its native integration on Pariplay’s Fusion aggregation platform.

The native integration of the Neuron 3 sportsbook on the Fusion platform addresses operators’ pain points particularly those relating to a long time-to-market due to the complex nature of integrating a quality third-party sportsbook platform, and the challenges associated with multiple platform integrations.

Through this agreement, apart from providing access to its high-powered sportsbetting platform, BtoBet will also be providing expert risk management, and a vast portfolio of pre-match and live sports events on a monthly basis.

“I am pleased to welcome Smashup to BtoBet’s large family, particularly because it is one of the first brands utilising BtoBet’s sportsbook platform via Pariplay’s FusionTM platform. Not only is this an industry-first approach for operators to gain access to a quality sportsbook in a very short time-to-market, but furthermore it removes all the complexities which typically accompany the integration of multiple platforms. I am positive that BtoBet’s Neuron 3 sports betting platform, in parallel to our risk management services, will be key in the brand’s target of increasing its marketshare in the LatAm region,” Dima Reiderman, Chief Operating Officer at BtoBet, said.

“We are pleased to partner with an experienced partner such as BtoBet, which has a proven track record in South America. I am also highly satisfied with the simplified integration of the sportsbook platform, a process that would usually require a significant investment for an operator in terms of financials, technical and human resources. I am positive that together with BtoBet Smashup’s brand will maintain its growth trajectory and eventually increase its regional presence,” Justin Wong, COO of Long Island, said.
