Global sports betting giant Bet365 has announced a partnership with Scout Gaming Group, a leading fantasy sports provider, to bring a range of free-to-play Daily Lineups products to North America.
The deal expands Bet365 and Scout Gaming Group’s existing partnership across five continents with multiple, highly localised products deploying a number of different user engagement, acquisition and retention strategies.
Commenting on the announcement, a Bet365 spokesperson said: “We are excited to partner with Scout Gaming Group, a veteran leader in fantasy sports. Their robust range of technologies, products and services will play an instrumental role as we expand our fantastic free-to-play Daily Lineups for our eligible Bet365 customers.”
