OLBG gives away more than £1 million to tipsters

- £1m prize mark passed on 1 May 2023
- 76,953 prizes given away to tipsters
- Most successful winners have taken home £9,115 each
Sports betting community and affiliate OLBG has now given away more than £1 million to users in its popular free-to-enter tipster competitions.
The contest, launched back in August 2003, offers players the chance to enter competitions across 22 sports.
Players win prizes based on their tips on sports including football, horse racing, baseball, basketball, boxing, cricket, darts, golf, greyhounds, handball, motor racing, American football, ice hockey, rugby, snooker, tennis and volleyball.
They can also offer tips on more niche markets such as eSports and politics, while the site has also recently added Gaelic sports, Aussie Rules and Lacrosse to the competition.
Each month OLBG gives away £7,100 in cash, with more than 800 individual prizes on offer. The largest prize fund is for football tips, with £2,100 given away each month, followed by horse racing at £1,600.
“Our tipster competitions have been fundamental in building our engaged sports betting community. Many of our members have been using OLBG on a daily basis for years,” said Richard Moffat, CEO at OLBG.
“Over 500,000 users have joined OLBG, with several thousand taking part in the competitions on a daily basis. This creates a huge amount of valuable content for those who like to follow tips and learn betting strategies.
“For some, it’s the challenge of proving themselves and winning prize money, others find it helps them with their own betting by recording their reasoning for each bet and being able to analyse their records. And for many, it’s a bit of free fun with the chance to win cash prizes.
“We believe that the OLBG tipster competitions are the most comprehensive free-to-enter contests available and the first ever to pass the £1 million milestone. We look forward to giving away even more cash to our loyal users in the future, they deserve every penny they receive.”
Some 10 members have won more than £5,000 each, with two members surpassing £9,000. Some of the top tipsters have also built up big followings, with one having more than 50,000 followers on the OLBG app.
As well as cash, OLBG members can accumulate OLBG crowns via their tipping and other community contributions. These can be exchanged in the OLBG store for merchandise, including the famous orange and black OLBG scarves.

Casino Guru secures Safer Gambling Initiative of the Year at iGB Affiliate Awards

Casino Guru is proud to announce that it has won the Safer Gambling Initiative of the Year at the iGB Affiliate Awards 2025, for a third consecutive year.
The distinction further highlights the company’s commitment to building a sustainable future for the gambling industry, not only through its dedication to providing players with the most complete, real-time-updated database of online casinos curated by trained experts, but also through its efforts to influence business standards and responsible practices across the sector.
As a leader in informed play, Casino Guru has dedicated a significant portion of its time and efforts to building a casino database that uses safer gambling as one of its core metrics for assessing a brand’s reliability, sustainability, and treatment of customers.
Casino Guru’s Head of Sustainable and Safer Gambling, Šimon Vincze, was excited to share his appreciation for the award: “As someone closely involved in responsible gambling and safer play at Casino Guru, I can say this award is a true testament to our work. We’ve worked tirelessly to leverage our market position to produce tangible outcomes in terms of awareness and impact of safer gambling practices, player complaints, and the availability of blocking software. We are a trailblazer in safer gambling among affiliates, but collaboration with other like-minded companies has enabled us to stay at the forefront.”
Casino Guru could not be prouder of this moment, which once again reinforces the company’s leadership in helping to set safer gambling standards industry-wide.
Daniela Sliva, Public Relations and Creative Projects Director, commented on the distinction: “Winning the Safer Gambling Initiative of the Year for a third consecutive time was an emotional moment and a well-deserved one. Casino Guru has worked tirelessly to establish itself as a leader in promoting sustainable and responsible play. We truly believe we are setting new standards for responsible gambling, not just within the affiliate space, but across the wider industry. Our company ethos places safer gambling at the heart of everything we do, from our Complaint Resolution Center to the Safety Index, and especially through initiatives like the Casino Guru Awards, which further reinforce this commitment.”
Among the achievements that Casino Guru has to be proud of are the Casino Guru Awards, which have established clear competitive guidelines for safer and responsible gambling and distinguish companies that adhere to the Casino Guru’s ethical guidelines and best practices.
Furthermore, Casino Guru established the Gamtegrity platform, which reunites all of the company’s safer gambling projects in one place.
Among Casino Guru’s notable achievements are the Casino Guru Academy, which offers upskilling programs with a focus on responsible gambling, the Global Self-Exclusion Standards Initiative, an active list of partners with some of the leaders in the responsible gambling space, including Mindway AI, and much more.
“An industry-wide commitment to responsible gambling is not only possible: it’s within reach. Casino Guru’s achievement at the iGB Affiliate Awards 2025 is yet another reason for us to double down on our efforts and work even harder to make this vision a reality,” Silva concluded.
