Fantasy football supplier 20SHOTS signs contract renewal with BoyleSports

UK B2B free-to-play game supplier 20SHOTS has secured a contract extension to supply its flagship football jackpot game Fantasy5 to leading sports and casino operator BoyleSports.

The renewal comes after BoyleSports successfully integrated the free-to-play fantasy football game for last year’s Premier League season.

Commenting on the renewal, Aimee Prendergast, marketing director at BoyleSports, said: “We have found Fantasy5 to be a great retention and engagement tool for our players and we look forward to continuing our partnership with 20SHOTS.”

This year’s competition went live on BoyleSports.com on 3 August, just in time for the beginning of the Premier League season, and is available to all of the operator’s UK and Ireland players. BoyleSports hosts the popular fantasy football game under its own branding and has a separate Fantasy5 player pool to the B2C offering of 20SHOTS.

Fantasy5 users choose five players to beat their fantasy points targets in five weekly games, with BoyleSports offering a weekly jackpot of £5,000 to any player who gets all five picks right. The jackpot is shared if more than one player is successful.

20SHOTS co-founder and CEO Jacob Kalms said the contract renewal represented another strong endorsement of the company.

“We have recently announced some exciting new deals and we have others in the works, but BoyleSports was our very first operator partner and we see its continuing confidence in 20SHOTS as a strong demonstration of the strength of our game and technology.

“We are delighted to be continuing our partnership with BoyleSports. It was very successful last year, and we believe Fantasy5 will continue to complement its other products very well.”
