ONE Championship (ONE) has signed strategic partnerships with several global brands to leverage multiple platforms and create a synergy between the business, martial arts and esports communities. The brands include JBL, TUMI, Red Bull, Lazada, DBS Bank, foodpanda, Hugo Boss, Harvey Norman, Secretlab, California Fitness, Kredivo, Reckitt Benckiser and Unilever among others.

These brands will collaborate with ONE Championship and ONE Esports on various martial arts and esports initiatives in 2020, as ONE has planned a minimum schedule of over 50 live events this year spanning its entire martial arts and esports gamut.

Two of the events that are set to run this year include ONE Esports Dota 2 Jakarta Invitational in April and the ONE Esports Singapore Major in June. JBL will be the official audio partner for the upcoming Dota 2 World Pro Invitational in Singapore and Jakarta and the Dota 2 Major in Singapore in 2020. Meanwhile, DBS will be the official banking partner of ONE Esports Dota 2 World Pro Invitational series.

Anthony Seow, head of payments and platforms, DBS Bank said as esports becomes more popular in Singapore and across the region, its cardholders who are avid gamers will be rewarded to exclusively curated deals and privileges.

Michelle Yip, CMO of Lazada Singapore, said the inaugural ONE Esports Dota 2 Singapore World Pro Invitational will be livestreamed on the Lazada app.

Ian Alexander Ang, CEO and co-founder of Secretlab, said that with esports booming today, Secretlab aims to support esports athletes through its equipment designed for gamers.

Adam Hershman, general manager, TUMI Greater China, APAC Distribution and Travel Retail said that through its partnership with ONE Esports, the company will focus on working with this new generation of athletes and the fans. As esports players are always on the move and need worry-free travel solutions, TUMI aims to focus on delivering that.

Chatri Sityodtong, chairman and CEO of ONE Championship, said each of its partners share a harmonious culture of excellence and innovation, and each play a specific role in realising the vision at ONE Championship. According to Sityodtong, ONE aims to ignite the world with hope, strength, dreams and inspiration, and share the stories of its athletes with millions of people across the globe.

“The ONE Esports Dota 2 Singapore World Pro Invitational was a huge success. We delivered an amazing experience for the esports community and our brand partners. 88% of attendees surveyed were 18–35. 96% of respondents stated that they are likely to attend the next ONE Esports event, and 84% are more likely to purchase a brand that supports ONE Esports events,” Carlos Alimurung, CEO of ONE Esports said.

DuelBits says UFC creator campaign delivers 122m verified video views

duelbits-says-ufc-creator-campaign-delivers-122m-verified-video-views

DuelBits has published results from its JUSTIN2026 marketing campaign, saying the UFC-focused activation generated more than 122 million verified video views and contributed to one of the company’s strongest MMA betting events “in recent years.”

The crypto sportsbook and casino operator said the campaign launched ahead of UFC event Freedom 250 at the White House and centred on former UFC lightweight champion Justin Gaethje. DuelBits framed the partnership as an early bet on Gaethje, before broader commercial interest.

According to the company, the campaign set a KPI to exceed 100 million impressions across owned, paid and partnered media, and ultimately delivered more than 122 million verified clip views via a network of more than 140 creators. The asset mix included a hero film, six short-form cutdowns, behind-the-scenes content and still imagery, distributed via DuelBits’ social channels, MMA publishers, creator partnerships and clipping pages.

DuelBits said the hero content was also integrated into Gaethje’s “Art of Violence” YouTube series. The operator added that the activation drove promotional code engagement and helped convert attention into sportsbook activity.

Jasper Hoekert, Chief Marketing Officer at Duelbits, said: “We wanted to support Justin before everyone else recognised the opportunity. Instead of following the hype once he has already achieved greatness, we wanted to back a champion before anybody else did.

“The campaign wasn’t measured purely on views. Of course, surpassing 122 million verified views and exceeding our 100 million KPI was a huge achievement, but the real success was seeing that attention convert into one of our strongest UFC betting nights in recent years.

“It also reinforced something that’s key to DuelBits as a brand, which is that we don’t do small campaigns. Whether it’s the production quality, creator network, or distribution strategy, we want every activation to show what’s possible when sportsbook marketing is treated like premium entertainment.”

Slotegrator now provides native app experience for iGaming platforms with PWA function

slotegrator-now-provides-native-app-experience-for-igaming-platforms-with-pwa-function

Slotegrator’s platform solution now offers progressive web app (PWA) functionality, enabling operators to provide installable casino apps with push notifications, flexible branding, and seamless access across changing domains. 

The Casino Builder module in Slotegator’s platform solution has been upgraded with a Progressive Web Application (PWA) feature that allows casinos to deliver an app-like experience without relying on the App Store or Google Play. 

Native apps are powerful tools for building customer loyalty and enhancing engagement. However, iGaming brands face serious obstacles, such as strict marketplace policies, long review processes, geographic restrictions, and the constant threat of app removal. Slotegrator’s PWA functionality eliminates these barriers, allowing players to install a casino app directly from their browser and enjoy many of the same benefits as a native app.

After installation, the PWA opens from the user’s home screen, loads fast, and supports push notification integration that enhances player engagement and retention.

“Mobile is still the leading channel for user acquisition and retention; however, it’s difficult to distribute native apps in iGaming,” says Olga Ivanchik, COO at Slotegrator. “Our new PWA feature gives operators an alternative that will be familiar to their players, while eliminating the complications related to conventional app stores. Operators can launch quickly, retain full control over updates, and ensure a perfect mobile gaming experience for any market.”

Within the next 2 months, operators will also have the ability to determine when the PWA install bar will be visible to the player. For example, displaying the install bar immediately after the first deposit, as part of a broader retention strategy, helps drive long-term player LTV. The operator can also set up frequency of the install offer — daily, weekly, just once, etc. 

Some operators have to consider UX for multiple frontends. Luckily, the installation widgets are highly flexible, helping them drive maximum conversion without sacrificing user experience. Operators can select a top bar or a top banner installation widget, both of which are fully customizable with branded icons, messaging, and backgrounds.

Operators can limit the visibility of their installation campaigns to specific devices — desktop, mobile, Android, or iOS — thanks to special targeting options. Operators can also design acquisition strategies specific to each platform, driving installs only where they offer the best user experience.

When players install the PWA, operators can connect it to push notification services, so they can re-engage them even when the application isn’t actively open. 

Mirror domain compatibility addresses a common operational challenge in restricted markets. If an operator has to change domains due to licensing or regulatory requirements, players who have already installed the PWA will be able to continue using it without reinstallation.

Unlike native applications, PWAs don’t require App Store or Google Play approval, effectively eliminating possible delays and the risk of removal from the market. Instead, operators can deploy updates instantly to every user.

The new PWA functionality is now available in Slotegrator’s Casino Builder module, alongside other tools for improving mobile acquisition, engagement, and player retention.

Since 2012, Slotegrator has been one of the iGaming industry’s leading software and business solution providers for online casino and sportsbook operators.
