Betclic is the first bookmaker in Portugal on Google Play Store

Betclic became the first bookmaker with an app launched on Google Play Store, thus continuing the success of the sports betting and casino application. The novelty becomes possible after Google's most recent decision, which opened the platform to the betting category, a sector that has shown strong dynamism in several markets where it is already allowed, and which now sees a new opportunity to be included in the Portuguese market.

Currently, Betclic is No. 1 in the sports category at the Apple Store in Portugal. The transition to Google Play is, therefore, an essential step in affirming the brand, which is the leader in the bookmaker sector in the local market, and reinforces the provision of a complete and integrated service to Portuguese punters.

"It is an important step for the sector and for Betclic, which, after being the first licensed company in sports betting and online casino in Portugal, has once again the opportunity and responsibility to be the first to open the Google Play Store,” statess Pureza Sousa, country manager of Betclic Portugal.

"The commitment is even greater for having, within the industry, the app with the best ranking in the Apple Store (4.8),” Sousa added.

The head of Betclic in Portugal also commented that "although there is already a Betclic app for Android, the credibility of being on the Google Play Store is yet another sign of confidence from the major technological platforms and consumers in our product."
