William Hill Profits Drop by 91% Due to Covid-19 Crisis

William Hill has reported that its annual profits dropped by 91% after the pandemic forced the closure of its betting shops and saw live sports events cancelled. The group saw underlying pre-tax profits slump to £9.1m in 2020 from £96.5m in 2019.

Its betting shops were hit hard by repeated lockdowns and restrictions, with the retail arm slumping to a £29.5m loss as like-for-like revenues plunged 30%. William Hill’s online business delivered a 3% rise in earnings to £121.9m, but this was not enough to offset the retail woes.

Ulrik Bengtsson, CEO of William Hill, said: “In what was an extraordinary year I am immensely proud of how the group has responded and the resilience we have seen in our performance.

“We prioritised the protection and safety of both our colleagues and our customers, and our employees went above and beyond for which I thank them.

“In 2020 we put our strategic plans firmly into action, diversifying our geographical footprint, expanding our team’s capabilities and rebuilding our technology.

“We are embedding proprietary components across the platform architecture and are delivering a constant flow of new features including faster product experience, improved navigation and greater protection to our customers around the world.

“The performance in the second half is clear testimony that our strategy is bearing fruit. In the UK, the competitive position of our online offerings for both gaming and sports has been materially strengthened, and our omni-channel product is delivering encouraging early results.

“Retail has undergone regional disruption although where stores did re-open, they quickly traded towards pre-Covid levels.

“We are delighted with our international online performance, where our investment in our product and technology is producing clear benefits, particularly in light of the regulatory headwinds in Germany and temporary restrictions elsewhere.

“We will continue to benefit from our agile marketing engine, and the recent agreement to acquire Alfabet S.A.S. in Colombia and our licence in Argentina both offer further promising growth opportunities in Latin America.”

London, July 2026 — While most affiliate networks are busy refreshing their pitch decks, HELL Partners is doing what it always does: moving on its own terms. The brand is officially heading to IGB Live 2026, one of the most influential iGaming gatherings on the calendar, and the team is bringing more than business cards.

IGB Live takes place at ExCeL London, and HELL Partners will be set up at Booth L40

 — not hard to find, even harder to ignore.

What HELL Partners actually brings to the table

For those still getting acquainted with the brand: HELL Partners operates a portfolio of in-house iGaming products with conversion rates that speak before anyone in the room does. There are no restrictions on traffic sources — affiliates run what works, full stop. And with a GEO pool spanning Tier 1 through Tier 3 markets, the network offers the kind of scale that keeps serious webmasters interested long-term. Besides, there’s a new brand coming soon, further expanding the opportunities.

Clean terms, open sources, full creative control. The infrastructure is built to perform—and let partners do the same.

What’s waiting at the stand

HELL Partners isn’t flying to London to shake hands and collect LinkedIn connections. The managers on-site will be ready to sit down, open the laptop, and structure a deal worth talking about — tailored, specific, and built around your traffic.

Also at the stand: a Prada giveaway. Three items. Real ones. The mechanics are simple — follow HELL Partners on Instagram and Telegram, stop by Stand L40, and get entered. The kind of brand energy that makes sense when you think about who HELL Partners is building this for.

And one more thing making the trip to London: an exclusive merch collection, designed specifically for IGB Live. Not a reprint, not leftovers — something made for this exact moment. Come see it at the stand.

The VIP event — for the VIP Inner Circle

Beyond the floor, HELL Partners is hosting a closed evening for top partners and industry voices. An exclusive private screening of The Devil Wears Prada 2, complete with a session from a film critic who actually knows what they’re talking about. Details are confirmed for those already in the circle — and for those who aren’t yet, a conversation at the stand is the right place to start.

It’s the kind of move that says: HELL Partners treats its partners the way the industry should have been treating them all along.
