What is being said?

“Obviously it’s a customer acquisition business,” he stated. “We’re in a very tough battle every day with very well funded competitors like ourselves, and you have to be thoughtful about every time you enter into a state and who you’re going to partner with – whether that’s a league or a team or a media company.

“We have dozens of those types of partnerships around the country so that fuels a lot of the marketing. There’s a real flywheel of how we go in and accumulate customers. We also have a large content team and social team that certainly do quite a bit of work as well.”

Additionally, he highlighted the importance of developing and implementing strong and effective responsible gambling measures as the US betting and gaming sector continues to grow.

“We’re the only mobile sports mobile operator to partner with the American Gaming Association (AGA). We have a full partnership with them on what they refer to as a ‘game plan campaign’, which is an education campaign that partners with leagues and teams to educate customers who need to understand how to use the product.”
