Scout Gaming Group will deliver its complete daily fantasy sports (DFS) solution to customers on GML Interactive brands – Stoiximan and Betano.
Stoiximan is a leading operator in Greece, a market with an annual turnover of €250-300 million, while Betano, a market leader in Romania, is preparing to enter Germany later this month.
Both have been prominent in football sponsorship, with Stoiximan the main shirt sponsors of Olympiacos FC and PAOK FC, and Betano the sponsor of Liga I in Romania.
The agreement will provide the GML brands with full access to Scout Gaming’s DFS platform in time for next month’s World Cup in Russia.
Scout Gaming’s liquidity network includes or intends to include 1xBet, Betsson, Bethard, Nordic Leisure, ComeOn, Starpick, Fanteam, GoFantasy and PAF, of which the last four have launched with Scout Gaming’s DFS product and included payment suppliers.
Scout Gaming CEO Andreas Ternström said: “The fact that GML Interactive, owner of a dedicated sports brand and one of the largest private actors in Greece, chooses to work with Scout Gaming clearly shows that the DFS vertical continues its establishment in Europe and that we have the leading B2B product.”
George Kourakos, Head of Product, Design and Innovation of GML Interactive, added: “We work actively with our sports offer and want to ensure that we can always offer our customers the best product. We employ an active sporting engagement and are involved in a number of sponsorships, which is why this area is particularly important to us.
“With Scout Gaming’s product we see opportunities to further develop the product offering and at the same time establishing a new sports vertical in a European liquidity network.”
