Blask, the market intelligence ecosystem for iGaming, has crossed the 100-country threshold with the addition of new Asian, Africa and European markets to its platform.

Blask now provides AI-driven, real-time analytics on more than half of the world’s nations, with an in-depth overview of the operator landscape provided in 107 countries, and game analytics in 17.

The latest markets added include Turkey, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Ukraine, Qatar, Kuwait, Moldova, Tunisia, Zimbabwe, Jordan, Madagascar, Chad, Somalia, Niger, South Sudan and Mauritania.

Max Tesla, CEO and co-founder of Blask, said: “When we launched Blask last year, we made a commitment to bring in-depth, real-time iGaming market intelligence to the whole world. We’re now more than half-way towards completing this mission. Every new market we add brings more clarity to an industry that has operated in the dark for far too long.”

Blask shines a light on the performance of brands and entire markets where data-led intelligence has previously been lacking.

This latest update shows that as the United Arab Emirates prepares to roll out a new regulatory framework for online gaming, more than 155 brands are already active in the country. The Blask Index, a measure of engagement and interest across all brands in the UAE, is up 36.14% year-on-year.

Meanwhile, the once thriving  Ukraine iGaming market has seen a 49.11% YoY decline, with just 86 now active.
