Key highlights
- Posted record quarterly performance with revenue up 76% year-on-year and operator turnover rising 77%, driven by a busy sporting calendar, exceptional operator trading margin and growth in new markets
- Demonstrated scalability of the business model with operating margin of 47% compared with 23% in the corresponding quarter of 2019, and further strengthening of the net cash balance
- During the quarter, Kambi supported Rush Street Interactive and DraftKings with online launches into the US states of Iowa and Tennessee respectively
- Kambi agreed two new partnership agreements, signing with the Belgian National Lottery and JVH Gaming and Entertainment in the Netherlands
“As we reflect on what has been exceptionally challenging 12 months, it’s particularly pleasing to complete the year with a record Q4 performance and annual revenues up by 28%. At the start of 2020, full year revenue of €117.7m would have been deemed a great success, so to have delivered such a performance, in spite of the sporting calendar being severely impacted for the best part of four months, speaks volumes for the business we have created, our talented people and the upward trajectory we are on.
Kambi finished the year in fine fashion, with year-on-year Q4 revenue up by 76% to €46.9m and operator turnover rising 77% at an operator trading margin of 9.4%. The Kambi Operator Turnover Index came in at 989 which was a clear all-time high, while our business model illustrated the scalability it possesses with an operating margin of 47%.
The US continues to be a success story, with Q4 delivering expansion into Tennessee’s online market and three on-property launches across Michigan and Mississippi. Our US-facing partners are increasingly leveraging Kambi’s differentiation capabilities in areas including risk, pricing and front-end, to forge unique paths in their respective markets. With major states such as Texas and New York now looking closely at online sports betting, it’s clear Kambi’s US journey is in its early stages.
Our strong growth means Kambi is now operating at a scale like never before, which in turn allows the Kambi sportsbook and service to continuously evolve. The powerful partner network we have created, with fantastic partners from around the globe, produces ever increasing amounts of unique data, from which we can draw valuable insights to help us improve and continue to offer a high-performance sportsbook.
Over the past few months, and despite restrictions on travel, we have successfully grown the global network with four new partners. While the November signing of the Belgium National Lottery was addressed in our Q3 report, we closed out the year with the addition of JVH Gaming and Entertainment in December. JVH is the largest private casino group in the Netherlands, a country we expect to introduce a new regulatory framework later this year.
In recent weeks, we have signed partnership agreements with Racing and Wagering Western Australia and Argentinian casino operator Casino Magic and we look forward to launching with all our new partners in the coming months. While there is understandably great attention given to the promise of the US market, this quartet of partnerships, spread across three continents, underlines the exciting opportunities that lie in other corners of the world and cements Kambi’s position as the global market leader.
In summary, it’s been a year that’s shown that when working together, we can find the right responses to the toughest of challenges. The Kambi model is based on partnership, on sharing, on working together with our partners to ensure they have the best chance of success. The model was undoubtedly stress-tested in 2020 but it passed with flying colours, leaving me more excited than ever about Kambi’s future.”

XSOLLA WEB SHOP AND SINGULAR JOIN FORCES TO DELIVER CROSS-PLATFORM LTV AND ROAS MEASUREMENT SOLUTIONS
Xsolla Web Shop And Singular S2S Integration Bridges The Gap Between Mobile Marketing And Web Transactions For Complete Campaign Visibility
Xsolla, a global video game commerce company that helps developers launch, grow, and monetize their games, today announced a new mobile-focused Server-to-Server (S2S) integration with Singular, a leading marketing analytics and attribution platform. The integration unifies mobile marketing data with direct-to-consumer web purchases, enabling developers to measure campaign performance and player value more accurately than ever before.
As mobile game makers increasingly turn to Web Shops to expand revenue streams beyond app stores, one challenge has persisted: how to tie those off-platform transactions back to mobile marketing spend. The Xsolla Web Shop + Singular S2S integration closes this gap by treating Web Shop purchases as attributable events, giving developers true Return on Advertising Spend (ROAS) and comprehensive Lifetime Value (LTV) insights.
Key advantages of the Xsolla Web Shop + Singular S2S integration:
- Capture both mobile and web purchases as part of a single funnel
- Link revenue directly to user acquisition and re-engagement campaigns
- Reveal the complete LTV picture across app and Web Shop transactions
With this integration, Web Shop purchases are transmitted to Singular as server-to-server events, then mapped back to the correct install source or re-engagement campaign. This provides growth teams with a single, trusted view of performance across all platforms.
“Having launched more than 600 mobile Web Shops, we’ve seen developers demand actionable data that connects web monetization with mobile marketing,” said Berkley Egenes, Chief Marketing & Growth Officer at Xsolla. “Our new S2S integration with Singular delivers that missing link, giving teams the clarity to optimize and scale their Web Shop strategies confidently.”
“Our goal at Singular has always been to simplify complex data and make it actionable for growth teams,” said Gadi Eliashiv, CEO and Co-Founder at Singular. “By partnering with Xsolla, we’re giving developers the full-funnel visibility they need to measure ROI and maximize revenue across every platform.”
