Betandeal has achieved the most shortlisted entries heading into this year’s iGB Affiliate Awards in London, making the cut in five categories.

The Madrid-headquartered affiliate agency is closely followed by the listed sector’s star performer of the last 12 months, Gambling.com Group.

GDC has put itself in the running across four categories, for best affiliate in casino, sports and bingo (via its WhichBingo brand) as well as Affiliate Employer of the Year.

Newcomer WagerWire also garnered four shortlist nods from the judges in sports, Safer Gambling Initiative of the Year, Employer of the Year and Best Affiliate Campaign.

While more than half of the casino and sports shortlists consist of familiar names that made the cut last time around, including GDC, Better Collective, Gentoo Media, OLBG, Mr. Gamble and Casino Guru, the picture for the Awards’ most popular and highest-growth categories is more mixed.

For Best Affiliate Programme, only three of the 12 shortlisters featured last year – bet365 Partners, last year’s surprise winner Novi Affiliates and Betsson Group Affiliates. While in Best Affiliate Network, for which judgable submissions grew by nearly 80% YoY, only CasinoAffliatePrograms.com and BetAffiliation are back to do battle again this year.

Both of these categories also include submissions from two businesses in the thick of the year’s most significant regulated market opening, Superbet’s Brazil Affiliate Program and Super Afiliados.

The new Best Affiliate Management Platform shortlist sees established names such as MyAffiliates, Affilka and PartnerMatrix pitched against a raft of fast-growing challengers and disruptors such as ReferOn and Aff.Tech.

The winners of this year’s iGB Affiliate Awards will be revealed at a Cool Britannia-themed night at East London’s Troxy Theatre on 3 July, following the second day of iGB L!VE.
