A Billion Dollar Opportunity in the Online Gaming Market (Safehaven.com Market Commentary )
Reading Time: 10 minutes
FN Media Group Presents Safehaven.com Market Commentary
Currently, Global Market Advisors estimate illicit sports betting is a $150 billion industry. NBA commissioner Adam Silverhas written that some even estimate it at $400 billion per year. And in 2018, a little-known U.S. Supreme Court decision ripped open the door to a potential multi-billion-dollar market – the digital gambling industry. Mentioned in today’s commentary includes: Stars Group Inc (NASDAQ:TSG), Brookfield Business Partners (NYSE:BBU), GameHost Inc (OTC:GHIFF), Blackberry Ltd. (NYSE:BB), Wynn Resorts Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN).
For decades this was a massive black market. But after a landmark ruling in the nation’s highest court, the whole industry is now poised for rapid legalization. A rush for the U.S. market is kicking off. And Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) is positioned to seize a chunk of the online gambling spoils.
America‘s Multi Billion Dollar Gambling Revolution
On May 14th the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of New Jersey in a 6-3 decision – striking down the federal law that banned sports betting in most states. This is a potential $400 billion market, and it’s now open for business. And, while many investors are focusing on Blue Chip casino names – an opportunity may be in stocks like Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF).
To dominate this new industry, companies need three things:
#1 – A veteran operating team with experience in the industry.
#2 – Proven technology with a tested back office platform.
And…
#3 – Media assets that can drive massive customer growth.
Bragg has all three – and they could soon join the likes of Las Vegas Sands (LVS), Wynn Resorts (WYNN) and Caesar‘s Entertainment (CZR) in the online gaming industry.
Veteran Gaming Industry Operators
Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) boasts a gaming industry dream team. CEO Dominic Mansour has nearly 20 years’ experience in the gaming and lottery industry. He operated Full Tilt poker – the 2nd largest poker site in the world. This was an enterprise with over $450 million in annual revenue.
CFO Akshay Kumar was previously CFO at NetPlay. Prior to this he was Financial Controller at Sporting Index, the sports spread betting specialist.
Matevz Mazij is the Managing Director of Oryx – a key Bragg Gaming division. He founded the company in 2010, after spending 8 years as one of the IT minds behind multiple online and land-based gaming companies around the world. Together, the team intends to compete across the online gambling industry’s full spectrum of B2B and B2C verticals – first in Europe and ultimately in the United States.
A B2B Online Gambling Powerhouse With Positive Cash Flow Today
The first pillar of the Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) opportunity is Oryx Gaming – a turnkey B2B gaming solution provider they acquired in 2018. It’s critical to the company’s plans for two reasons:
#1 – Infrastructure
And…
#2 – Cashflow
Oryx publishes over 5,000 game titles. They provide the technology, the gaming platform, risk management, operations and back office services. They are certified, approved and licensed in Malta, Schleswig Holstein, Spain, Romania, Colombia, Croatia, Serbia, Gibraltar, UK and Slovenia. And, right now they’re very much cash flow positive.
This gives Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) the resources and operational capability to launch their own B2C gaming brands in both Europe and the United States.
A Sports Media Asset That Dominates ESPN On Facebook
Since 2003 when U.S. regulators began cracking down on gambling advertisements, most ad platforms highly restrict, or even prohibit them outright. Facebook requires written permission in advance for any real money gaming ad.
That’s why Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) which was then known as Breaking Data, in 2017 acquired GiveMeSport – a next generation sports media asset. With 26 million followers, they are the largest sports publisher on Facebook. ESPN is in second place with just 18 million followers – or over 44% less. Right now, the only monetization plan for GMS is paid advertising. Their ad revenue growth is sitting at 83% year over year. But that’s merely the short-term plan for the site.
The Next World Class Gaming Company?
According to Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF) CEO Dominic Mansour “the acquisition of Oryx is the first step on the road to the creation of a new global gaming group.”
First, they intend to launch the GiveMeBet gambling platform. Oryx will provide the technology platform and software to run the service. Bragg Gaming has an agreement with Argyll, which holds a UK betting license to operate the site.
They’ll leverage the massive audience from their GiveMeSport website to drive adoption and growth. This isn’t an untried model – it’s been done before.
As legalization unfolds in the United States, the company intends to grow and acquire assets across the full spectrum of gaming verticals in multiple jurisdictions.
Why You Need To Pay Attention
The May 14th U.S. Supreme Court decision to overturn PASPA, in favor of New Jersey, was a watershed moment for online sports gambling in the United States.
Seven states – Connecticut, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Iowa, New York, Mississippi and West Virginia – have laws prepared to make sports betting legal. And BRAGG boasts an incredibly experienced team of industry veterans. With Oryx, they have both the infrastructure and revenue to pursue an ambitious roadmap.
Thanks to GiveMeSport’s over 30 million unique visitors – they also have a media springboard to launch B2C platforms like GiveMeBet in Europe and the U.S. This is a massive potential opportunity for Bragg Gaming Group (BRAG.V; BKDCF)
Other companies ready to jump on the betting boom:
Stars Group Inc (NASDAQ:TSG)
In December, Stars Group secured a major partnership with the National Basketball Association in order to use data and league marks across their digital sports betting offerings.
Scott Kaufman-Ross, Head of Fantasy & Gaming, NBA explained, “This dynamic partnership will be another way to create authentic fan engagement with league logos and official NBA betting data, while leveraging Stars’ global expertise to further optimize the fan experience.”
Brookfield Business Partners (NYSE:BBU)
Brookfield is a top-notch business acquisition firm with a tremendous focus on success and the creation of shareholder value. The company’s experienced leadership has led to incredible deals over the years, including a profitable partnership with Great Canadian Gaming.
The partnership with Great Canadian Gaming allowed the pair to purchase an array of gaming assets in the Greater Toronto Area at price of C$170. Together, the two companies aim to improve the value of these assets as well as bolster the customer experience with new offerings and expansions of acquired properties.
GameHost Inc (OTCMKTS:GHIFF)
GameHost is a leading entertainment and hospitality provider based in Alberta, Canada. The company operates four primary properties in the Alberta province, each offering slot machines, table games, top quality hospitality and more meant to appeal to both casual gamers and dedicated gamers alike.
GameHost is well-known for providing dividends to its investors, a plus for those who have stuck with the company over the years. In fact, its focus on increasing value for shareholders is made abundantly clear in its mission to reduce costs and improve offerings, creating some of the highest profit margins in the business.
Blackberry Ltd. (NYSE: BB)
Blackberry made its name as a cell phone manufacturer, and essentially created what we now know as a smartphone, but many don’t realize that Blackberry is actually providing mobile cybersecurity for government agencies worldwide. It’s also playing security consultant. A major victory for Blackberry even came in when it won the right to sell its secure messaging tools to the U.S. government.
Blackberry’s bets on less popular emerging tech plays has really paid off, according to its latest earnings rounds, and as one of the companies that essentially paved the way for digital gaming, it’s sure to remain a favorite innovator among innovators for some time.
Wynn Resorts, Limited (NASDAQ:WYNN)
Wynn Resorts is another iconic Las Vegas staple. Founded by Steve Wynn following the sale of Mirage Resorts to MGM Grand, Wynn has become one of the strongest gaming stocks on the market, largely thanks to its Macao assets as the region continues to produces tremendous revenue for
Despite some management setbacks, resulting in the replacement of Steve Wynn for Matthew Maddox, Wynn has performed well against its competitors, even after a larger industry-level decline in mid-2018. And with Macao casinos poised for a rebound, Wynn Resorts is one to watch moving forward.

At EvenBet Gaming, we see firsthand how the marketing landscape is changing. Insights from our iGaming Future 2026 report show that in 2025, success comes from connection, not noise.
As regulations tighten, acquisition costs rise, and audiences scatter across platforms, the brands that win are those that blend precision with personality. Today’s players and partners expect authenticity over aggression and storytelling over sales pitches. Campaigns are no longer about mass impressions but about micro-moments – tailored, data-driven interactions that feel personal, even at scale.
The winners listen first, analyze second, and act third – turning insight into engagement. In this landscape, connection is the foundation of sustainable growth.
The Split Game: B2B vs. B2C
In B2B, the battleground is trust. CEOs and decision-makers are drowning in noise – from events to endless newsletters. What cuts through? Case studies that show ROI, product demos that feel real, and personal networks built at ICE or SiGMA. Social media remains the undisputed king here: 49% of iGaming executives use it as their primary info source, followed by in-person networking and industry events. Long-form content still works – when it’s insightful, not promotional. To stand out in B2B marketing, brands should focus on:
- Building thought leadership through expert commentary and research-backed insights that prove credibility;
- Nurturing long-term relationships via community-led webinars, roundtables, and co-marketing projects that drive collaboration;
- Leveraging data storytelling – turning complex metrics into simple, visual narratives that help decision-makers act fast.
B2C, by contrast, is all about emotion and immediacy – but with a sharper distinction between markets and business models. The latest EvenBet Gaming Social Media Report shows that while short-form and community-driven content remains key, the dominance of platforms differs markedly. In Europe – LinkedIn leads the way as a professional and networking hub, reflecting a B2B-oriented focus on authority building, lead generation, and industry-specific engagement. In Asia – Facebook and Instagram dominate, highlighting a strategy centered on community connection, targeted advertising, and broad audience engagement, with Telegram also playing a significant role. For B2C operators – visual storytelling and entertainment-led platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok continue to drive emotional engagement, while for B2B providers – LinkedIn holds an undisputed lead, supported by Instagram and Telegram as complementary channels. The formula, therefore, is not simply to be social-first, but to be strategically social – prioritizing community and visual impact in B2C, and credibility and professional engagement in B2B.
AI and Automation – The New Marketers
According to EvenBet’s iGaming Future 2026 report, AI has moved from buzzword to backbone – redefining how brands attract, convert, and retain players. Predictive analytics now segment audiences before login, while machine learning powers adaptive CRM systems that personalize offers and retention bonuses in real time. In marketing operations, AI delivers measurable impact through:
- Dynamic pricing and bonus optimization – adjusting rewards by player value and engagement;
- Content intelligence – automating localization and campaign creation, cutting production time by up to 60%;
- Ad fraud prevention – identifying fake traffic before it drains budgets;
- Predictive churn analysis – triggering personalized retention actions;
- Voice and visual recognition – tracking live reactions and sentiment to optimize creative on the fly.
In B2B, AI turns marketing from broadcast to conversation – analyzing partner behavior, flagging high-value leads, and automating follow-ups. The brands that master real-time data interpretation lead the race. In iGaming, AI doesn’t just predict behavior – it shapes it.
Social Channels – The Real Arena
Social platforms have evolved far beyond advertising spaces. They’ve become the central nervous system of iGaming marketing. In 2025, social media is a living ecosystem where customer acquisition, brand positioning, community building, and market research all merge. Every platform has its rhythm and audience psychology; successful brands know how to play them like instruments in the same orchestra.
Whether a B2B partnership or a B2C retention campaign, the rule is simple: go where your audience lives, speak their language, and deliver value before the pitch. How each key platform shapes the iGaming marketing mix? Read here.
LinkedIn – the B2B Heartbeat
This is where credibility is built and deals are born. For iGaming providers, affiliates, and tech companies, LinkedIn serves as the top channel for partnerships, thought leadership, and lead generation. Sharing industry insights, case studies, and event takeaways reinforces authority and keeps brands visible among decision-makers. Paid targeting tools also allow for pinpoint precision, ensuring that every ad or article reaches the right vertical – from operators to regulators.
YouTube & Twitch – Where Entertainment Meets Education
As highlighted in EvenBet’s iGaming Future 2026 report, streaming has become a key growth channel for iGaming brands. YouTube anchors long-form storytelling – developer insights, product demos, and CEO interviews that build credibility. According to the EvenBet Gaming Social Media Report, YouTube accounts for 14% in Europe and 15% in Asia, showing near-equal relevance across regions and reinforcing its universal value for both markets.
Twitch, mentioned in iGaming Future 2026 alongside YouTube Live and Kick, plays a pivotal role in real-time engagement – driving live gameplay, poker tournaments, and influencer collaborations that enhance transparency and community connection. While no percentage data is provided for Twitch, the report emphasizes streaming as a natural fit for gambling content and audience interaction.
Together, these platforms turn audiences into participants – transforming content from promotion into experience.
TikTok & Instagram – Short, Raw, and Honest
Authenticity wins here. These platforms thrive on short-form, story-driven content that prioritizes emotion over polish. According to the EvenBet Gaming Social Media Report (p. 58), Instagram ranks second in both regions – 22% in Europe and 20% in Asia – while TikTok shows stronger traction in Asia (9%) than in Europe (5%), underscoring its growing influence among younger, mobile-first audiences.
Behind-the-scenes clips, quick tips, and relatable humor consistently outperform corporate messaging. Interactive ad formats like reels and hashtag challenges help iGaming brands spark viral loops, amplify influencer reach, and turn curiosity into action.
In a mobile-first world, these platforms don’t just advertise – they convert. The brands that master them know one truth: social is the marketplace, the focus group, and the loyalty engine all at once.
Customer Access and Personalization
Today’s players expect the brand to recognize them before signing in. The data backs it up: operators using personalized onboarding see up to 37% higher retention. Hybrid campaigns – connecting online and live play – are rising fast. A push notification might lead to an app bonus, unlocking a live event seat. That seamless loop is where loyalty lives. For iGaming operators, personalization now stretches far beyond “Hello, [Name]”:
- Behavioral segmentation uses AI to analyze time-of-day habits, game preferences, and betting velocity – letting brands tailor every interaction, from welcome bonuses to tournament invites;
- Cross-channel identity mapping ensures players get a consistent experience across web, app, email, and live venues – no duplicate offers, no irrelevant messages;
- Progressive profiling builds player personas gradually through engagement, balancing data collection with trust. This creates a 360° view without overwhelming the user with long forms;
- Experience-based incentives are replacing static bonuses. For example, completing a “10-hand challenge” online could unlock real-world prizes or exclusive event tickets.
What Next?
As highlighted in EvenBet’s iGaming Future 2026 report, the next phase of iGaming marketing – especially in B2B – is built on access, insight, and shared growth. Partners no longer want to be sold to; they want to collaborate, learn, and co-create. Loyalty now comes from ecosystems of mutual value, not discounts or outreach volume. Next-gen B2B engagement revolves around:
- Micro-communities on Slack, Discord, or LinkedIn – invite-only spaces where suppliers, affiliates, and operators exchange insights and form strategic alliances;
- Account-based marketing (ABM) powered by AI – integrating CRM and social data to tailor outreach, improving conversion rates by up to 50%;
- Virtual demos and co-branded webinars – frictionless entry points for collaboration that combine live interaction with analytics-driven follow-up;
- Shared data dashboards – transparency as the new trust currency, providing partners with real-time access to KPIs and campaign metrics.
In both B2C and B2B, the rule holds: the closer you get to your audience or partner, the harder it is for them to leave.
Innovation: Beyond Buzzwords
Gamification has become the universal language of engagement – missions, badges, leaderboards, loyalty loops. AI adds the adaptive layer; players evolve in real time. This same logic applies in marketing: adaptive storytelling that shifts with user behavior. The future? Predictive personalization. The line between “targeting” and “understanding” is getting thinner, and the best marketers are crossing it first. The new generation of gamified marketing goes beyond points and badges – it builds ecosystems of continuous engagement:
| Category | Tool / Mechanism | Description & Benefits |
| B2C (Players) | Dynamic Missions | AI-driven missions that adapt to player behavior in real time – e.g., switching from “daily spins” to “multi-table hands” based on user habits. Keeps engagement personal and relevant. |
| Reward Tiers & Progression Paths | Data-driven systems that reward consistency, not just spend. Players advance through experience-based milestones, improving long-term retention. | |
| Social Competition | Leaderboards, team missions, and community milestones create peer motivation. Increases engagement by up to 40% vs. solo play. | |
| Narrative Gamification | Marketing campaigns unfold as storylines – every message or promo feels like a new chapter in the player’s journey. Builds emotional attachment. | |
| AR & VR Integration | Combines real-world activity (QR scans, event participation) with digital rewards, creating immersive cross-channel brand experiences. | |
| Predictive Personalization | AI anticipates player mood and intent, adapting visuals, tone, and offers before behavior shifts. Moves from reactive to proactive marketing. | |
| B2B (Partners) | Partner Scoreboards | Tracks campaign performance – traffic, conversion, retention. Encourages friendly competition and higher partner productivity. |
| Gamified Learning Platforms | Turns product training and onboarding into missions, quizzes, and leaderboards. Boosts learning retention and team motivation. | |
| Incentive Ecosystems | Partners earn tiered rewards – access to beta tools, co-marketing funds, or exclusive insights – based on measurable performance metrics. | |
| Community Challenges | Affiliates or resellers compete in group KPIs (e.g., “Top Q3 Converters”). Builds engagement and shared achievement culture. | |
| AI Engagement Analytics | AI monitors partner engagement levels, offering personalized feedback, goal suggestions, and reward triggers automatically. |
Ultimately, gamification in iGaming marketing has shifted from “adding fun” to engineering motivation. It’s about designing systems where engagement becomes the most natural move. When rewards, progress, and storytelling align seamlessly with user behavior, participation stops feeling like marketing and starts feeling like entertainment. The brands that master this balance turn every interaction into a self-sustaining loop of curiosity, reward, and loyalty – where players don’t just play the game, they live inside it.
Final Hand
In 2025, iGaming marketing is a blend of human intuition and machine precision. The era of mass messaging is over – success now means balancing data with emotion and automation with authenticity. In B2B, growth comes from trust, transparency, and measurable ROI rather than lead volume. In B2C, players expect instant personalization, dynamic engagement, and brands that speak their language – making AI-driven personalization and social-first storytelling essentials, not extras.
The strongest brands will merge both worlds, using AI to amplify empathy and data to sharpen creativity. In a market flooded with content, relevance is survival – and trust is the true currency of differentiation.
