Bet365 beats £2bn revenue mark
Bet365 surpassed the £2bn annual revenue milestone for the first time during the 12 months to March 26, 2017, and also achieved year-on-year operating and pre-tax profit growth.
Full-year revenue came in at £2.15bn (€2.44bn/$2.83bn), up 39% from £1.65bn in the previous 12-month period, according to a report and financial statements released by the company this week.
Operating profit climbed 15% from £456m to £503m, while pre-tax profit was also up from £459m to £514m.
Bet365 also noted a 27% year-on-year increase on the amount that its customers wagered on sports, while the number of active players jumped 35%.
According to the Racing Post, Denise Coates, joint chief executive of the group with her brother John, cited the impact of the Euro 2016 national team football tournament as one of the main reasons behind the increase in key financials.
Coates also highlighted product enhancements such as the new ‘Edit My Bet’ and ‘Auto Cash Out’ options as key selling points for customers, as well as additions to live content, with the operator now able to stream 140,000 events each year.
In addition, Coates is keen for the company to continue with its expansion plans and build on licences in the UK, Spain, Denmark, Italy, Gibraltar, Malta, Ireland, Australia, Bulgaria and Cyprus.
“Given the group’s experience in regulated markets it believes it is well placed to benefit long-term in those countries where sensible regulation is adopted.” said Coates.
Coates also spoke out about Bet365’s commitment to protecting its customers, saying the company “recognises its responsibility to minimise gambling-related harm and to keep crime out of gambling”.
Coates went on saying: “The group is committed to developing an evidence-based approach to responsible gambling; to this end, the group continues to work with research partners on a number of projects to improve its methods of identifying harmful play and deliver more effective harm-minimisation interventions.
The group has also invested in the development of its own predictive algorithms in order to improve the accuracy and reach of existing measures.The scope and reach of Bet365’s predictive system has been expanded with the addition of new markers of potential harm. In addition, a refined set of harm-minimisation interventions has been developed.”

N1 Partners Drops Prediction Markets Vertical — Expand Your Traffic Strategy!
N1 Partners team has launched a new Prediction Markets vertical on the N1 Bet product, which is a new betting format for real events with simple yes/no mechanics. This is the first and so far the only SOFTSWISS product that works with this niche.
This vertical opens up expanded opportunities for partners: it provides access to a fresh audience, and also allows you to monetize and scale traffic from various sources — from politics and finance to entertainment and show business — as efficiently as possible.
What is the real benefit for partners and how does it work? Read all about the Prediction Markets vertical in the article.
Prediction Markets vertical: what is it?
Prediction Markets is a unique betting format for real non-sporting events, where the user chooses “yes” or “no” to the potential event outcome (for example, elections, the Eurovision Contest, the Oscar Awards).
Users can bet on topics in the following areas:
- politics (elections, geopolitical events)
- cryptocurrencies and financial markets
- technology and business
- social trends and global narratives
- entertainment and show business
The format is as simple as possible, does not require experience and knowledge in classic betting, therefore it may be of interest to a wide audience.
Why is the Prediction Markets format worth a test?
It is crucial to note that Prediction Markets is not just another feature; it is a unique vertical that gives access to a new, previously non-converting audience.
Reasons to test Prediction Markets:
- The threshold for the first conversion is lower than in betting;
- Works great with SEO and content traffic (news, trends, cryptosphere, politics, entertainment);
- High interest in the vertical during trending events;
- Opportunity to monetize an audience that doesn’t bet on sports or casinos.;
- It is possible to transfer users to the casino and vertical betting;
- Provides a smooth user path within the product.
Moreover, the format is as native as possible — real events constantly create new reasons for returning players, forming stable retention and LTV.
Thus, Prediction Markets is a great way to monetize an audience that has not made a profit before, and with N1 Partners you can do this as simply and efficiently as possible.

OLBG recognised in iGB Affiliate Awards for Dorking sponsorship
OLBG, Principal Partner of Dorking Wanderers FC since the start of the 2025/26 season, has received national recognition after their headline sponsorship campaign was shortlisted for Affiliate Campaign of the Year at the 2026 iGB Affiliate Awards.
The nomination celebrates the leading sports betting and casino community’s collaboration with the Surrey-based club. Their partnership has helped shine a wider spotlight on non-league football through fan-focused content, social engagement and community-led activations.
Alongside the Dorking Wanderers campaign nomination, OLBG has also been shortlisted for both Best Sports Betting Affiliate and Best Casino Affiliate, underlining the brand’s continued growth across the wider iGaming industry.
Since announcing the long-term partnership in 2025, OLBG and Dorking Wanderers have launched a range of initiatives designed to bring supporters closer to the club, including branded fan engagement campaigns and social activations that have generated significant traction online.
Founded in 1999, Dorking Wanderers have become one of the most recognisable names in English non-league football following their rapid rise through the pyramid under owner and manager Marc White. The club has built a substantial national following through viral social media clips and documentary-style football content.
The iGB Affiliate Awards are regarded as one of the leading award ceremonies in the global affiliate and online gambling sector, recognising standout campaigns, partnerships and businesses from across the industry.
This year’s winners will be announced at a ceremony on 2 July.
OLBG CEO Richard Moffatt said: “After winning two awards at last year’s iGB Affiliate Awards, it’s fantastic to see OLBG shortlisted again across three categories this year.
As OLBG continues to grow as a broader sports fan engagement brand, it’s been rewarding to see ideas and learnings from partnerships such as Harry Derham Racing continue to evolve across new collaborations.
It’s especially pleasing to see our work with Dorking Wanderers F.C. recognised in the Campaign of the Year category. We were honoured to win this award last year for our partnership with Harry Derham Racing and, much like that collaboration, our work with DWFC has centred around long term storytelling, helping our partners move closer to their ambitions while giving fans a deeper connection to the sport they love.
A huge thank you goes to everyone at Dorking Wanderers F.C., Bunch of Amateurs and the OLBG team whose energy, creativity and commitment have made the partnership such a success.”
