Low6 strengthens global distribution through new partnership with ITP
F2P trailblazer announces a new collaboration with Inside The Pocket’s leading agnostic platform
Low6, the leading gamification innovator, announced in June that it was ready to offer its gamification technology as a full turnkey B2B solution to the betting and gaming industry. Today, Low6 announces a strategic partnership with Inside The Pocket (ITP) the sector’s pre-eminent free-to-play aggregation platform, which instantly broadens its global footprint.
In a deal which unites two gaming trailblazers, Low6 will deliver a selection of its award-winning F2P products to a new network of operators via the fast-growing ITP platform, in an industry-first aggregation model for sports betting.
ITP’s ground-breaking marketplace now affords a host of innovative suppliers a simple route to market which, in turn, offers worldwide operators a wealth of value-creation opportunities across a broad spectrum of content from one seamless integration.
The Low6 technology platform allows its partners to easily launch a wide range of F2P Fantasy, Picks, Trivia and Bracket game formats with seamless speed across any sport, language or territory. The suite of iGaming products has been developed in conjunction with some of the biggest names in sports, gaming, media and mobile technology, including the PGA TOUR, UFC, Uber Eats and PointsBet.
Global gaming operators can now access the industry-leading 1st-party data opportunities that the white-label gamification provides. Low6’s set of data collection tools help customers to collect strong 1st-party data to help them better understand their user base – something that is becoming ever more central to business success.
ITP’s proven international scope and flair for localization promises to drive diversified fan engagement to Low6 around targeted free-to-play sports games. Thanks to its open-aggregation approach, Inside The Pocket already offers the broadest and best-curated mix of games available, with one platform integration acting as a gateway to virtually unlimited content. Its ethos aligns well with the Low6 approach of a community-first approach to sports gamification. And ITP’s easy-to-use dashboards provide clients with the full picture on player activity, thanks to aggregated cross-network player data (e.g. from individual customer journeys to in-play data, and other shared insights on player segments). The technology and data collection enabled by ITP and Low6 can drive the kind of low cost, high value conversion and retention that is integral to successful gaming and betting industry marketing these days.
“Sportsbooks worldwide can now effortlessly expand their portfolio through our white label gamification platform. This collaboration with ITP offers a simple way to access a selection of our fan-favourite F2P games and all the value-added benefits that come with Low6 gamification tools. Our F2P games collect actionable data to help all our partners better know and understand their user base which, in turn, will help them to acquire, convert and retain satisfied customers,” said Jamie Mitchell, Low6 CEO.
Hussain Naqi, Founder and CEO of Inside The Pocket, added: “This partnership is the very definition of an old-fashioned win-win. For ITP, it gives us more great content for our customers. For Low6, it facilitates sales in outreach while reducing barriers to the decision-making process. Put succinctly, as markets mature and evolve, the best products always win. And this collaboration is a great way of showcasing those great new products to the end consumer. It’s all about the flexibility this provides for both of our customers and future prospects.
“As a market leader in the dynamic, evolving F2P vertical, Low6 was naturally a logical choice as an ITP partner. ITP’s multifaceted assets are already revenue-generating for our operators, so we’re thrilled with the early international reception from our growing global association of betting partners.”
