LazyBar: The New White Label Casino Brand launched on the Extendy Platform
Say hello to LazyBar, Allset Partnersâ brand-new online casino brand. Launched only 2 months ago and already available in five major gaming locations in Europe, namely Spain, Germany, Austria, Belgium and Poland, LazyBar is already off to a flying start.Â
âOur sights are set high and we have ambitious plans for the future. Our goal now, however, is to see LazyBar get to âŹ1,000,000 in GGR by the end of 2024. We also plan to keep growing our list of European GEOs.” â Allset Partners
A peek at LazyBar: 9500+ popular games from over 70 game providers
Traffic to LazyBar comes mainly through media buying teams using Facebook, SEO, email campaigns and PPC.Â
The Allset Partners team have extensive experience in attracting iGaming traffic which is why creating their own brand seemed like the obvious and logical next step. As a white label online casino solution provider having launched several popular online casinos, Extendy was their primary choice. Launching an online casino brand includes managing all the extensive, major operational processes such as licensing, integrating game providers and payment solutions, as well as integrating all the necessary online casino infrastructures such as a CRM system, player support and VIP player support programs.
When it came to scaling LazyBar, the first step was to attract organic traffic and build a pool of players able to generate profit. Extendyâs CBDO, Ayvar Gabidullin explains that casinos created on the Extendy platform usually experience payouts within 5-6 months.
âWhen we launched our partner, Allset Partners, we initially determined a list of five countries to which all the traffic would go. However, seeing just how keen and active Allset were, we saw it best to roll out further GEOs. It was then that they really began to perform. The team is already showing results in Spain, Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and Poland.
Overall, launching LazyBar in such a short time is a huge achievement for both teams. I am confident that at this rate, Allset Partners will not only achieve their goals by the end of the year, but will surpass them by a significant margin.âÂ
