SBTech Partners with LeoVegas Brand BetUK.com for UK Sportsbook Launch
High-growth gaming business Rocket X will utilise SBTech to propel their multiple managed brands into sports betting in the UK
London, UK – 25 July 2018 – SBTech, the industry-leading sports betting solutions provider to the regulated iGaming sector, has entered into a new partnership with multi-brand, managed service online gaming company Rocket X to supply its sportsbook to a number of UK-facing sites. The firm’s flagship brand BetUK.com was recently unveiled as the sponsor of EFL Championship club Swansea City.
The agreement has been contracted directly with Swedish mobile gaming giant LeoVegas, which created the Rocket X brand in March to consolidate its UK assets, newly acquired from IPS.
BetUK.com players will enjoy world-class sports betting coverage as well as the most advanced features in the industry. These include YourBet, offering fully automated same-game accumulators with instant pricing, which is already live in the UK with several SBTech operators.
The speed to market for which SBTech is renowned throughout the industry, the breadth and depth of its UK-localised sportsbook and the group’s proven track record of achieving high growth in the UK market were all pivotal to the creation of the new deal.
Andrew Cochrane, COO of SBTech, commented: “This latest partnership is the result of our ongoing commitment to increasing our market share in key regulated markets by providing a sportsbook that meets and exceeds the high expectations of players. LeoVegas and the Rocket X team both share our vision of delivering a differentiated and compelling value proposition to players through product innovation, scalable technology and a fully bespoke trading and risk management approach.”
Mark Good, CEO of Rocket X added: “The strength of SBTech’s in-play coverage, its technological and regulatory expertise, proven track record of powering high-growth operators in the UK and wide range of responsible gambling controls were at the heart of our decision to sign this agreement. With the power of one of the industry’s top sportsbooks behind us, I’m confident of achieving significant share in the uniquely competitive UK market.”

RacingTV joins forces with 2mee
Affiliate powerhouse is allowing its operators to leverage the power of direct human messaging with trial campaigns hitting engagement rates of 38%
2mee, the Direct Human Messaging platform that helps online gambling companies take player communication and engagement to the next level, has joined forces with RacingTV so that the affiliate powerhouse can offer its technology to operators.
This means that online sportsbook brands working with RacingTV can create human hologram messages and use them to drive bettors to their sites.
RacingTV partners Bet Victor and SkyBet have been trialling the technology for several weeks now and across various campaigns have been able to achieve unrivalled rates of engagement and conversion.
One messaging campaign has performed particularly well with Bet Victor ambassador Harry Redknapp delivering a new player bonus offer which hit an engagement rate of 38% with his hologram message.
2mee’s patented technology allows gambling operators and affiliates to send Human Hologram Messages directly to customers in a way that demands their absolute attention.
It has been deployed by big-name brands such as BetFred and Sportsbet.io on their own websites and apps to leverage the power of emotional intelligence to boost acquisition and retention, and deliver KYC and compliance messaging with empathy.
Now operators can maximise their ambassadors and brand reach on third-party affiliate collateral as well.
2mee has been designed to do everything a volumetric studio can do but from a mobile phone. The user simply records the person delivering the message from any setting then 2mee recognises the face and cuts out the surrounding clutter, focusing the viewer on the person and the message.
James Riley, CEO of 2mee, said: “We are thrilled to be working with the innovative team at RacingTV and for its operator partners to be able to use our technology to send direct human messages to bettors. This really does allow them to stand out from the crowd and take engagement and conversion to the next level.
“Emotional marketing is absolutely the most effective way to engage and communicate with consumers and what better way of fostering this connection than via a face-to-face message. 2mee allows operators and affiliates to do just that.”
Clive Cottrell at RacingTV, added: “Quite frankly, we haven’t seen engagement and conversion rates like it. While running hologram campaigns, both BetVictor and SkyBet were our top-performing brands on the pages where the hologram messages were active.
“As an affiliate, this not only allows us to acquire increased volumes of new customers to our operator partners, but we too benefit from enhanced engagement, conversion rates and affiliate revenue streams.”
Luke Zgaga, Head of Acquisition UK at Bet Victor, said: “2mee’s value proposition through offering a unique human hologram message to prospects was exciting for us to test and exceeded our expectations. We saw strong results and far beyond the engagement levels we get with static image formats and look forward to working with them in the future.”
