The US gambling market stands as a testament to the evolving landscape of global gambling, where state-specific regulations, technological advancements, and shifting consumer preferences continuously redefine the boundaries of the industry. In this candid discussion, Paul Puolakka, Chief Marketing Officer at renowned casino comparison portal Mr. Gamble, will share insights into navigating the multifaceted US gambling market.

 

It seems that the United States are in the sights of most casino affiliates nowadays. Why is that?

The US gambling scene is legendary. From the neon lights of Vegas to the poker tables of Atlantic City, it’s a market that’s both iconic and evolving.

The 20th century saw the rise of Las Vegas as the gambling capital, with New Jersey’s Atlantic City joining the fray in the late 1970s. The past two decades have witnessed a surge in online gambling, with states gradually legalising various forms of it.

Despite the regulatory maze, the US offers a goldmine of opportunities. We’re not just entering a market; we’re diving into a rich history and culture of gambling. And we’re ready to make our mark.

 

Are there any potential difficulties with regards to tackling the US market?

The US is unique. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, each state has its own playbook. 

Without going into too much detail, let’s take a look at Nevada where casino gambling has been legalised since 1931. And then there’s California, with its rich history of tribal gambling, but no official decision on real money online gambling.

One would think it’d be the other way around, but here we are.

 

With each state playing by its own rules, how does Mr. Gamble plan to tackle this diverse landscape?

It’s like a jigsaw puzzle, each state a unique piece. Our strategy is to be agile, adapting our offerings to resonate with each state’s ethos. It’s a challenge, but it’s also an opportunity to craft bespoke experiences for every market segment.

 

The US has been a trendsetter in the gambling world. How has it influenced global trends?

The US is the birthplace of modern gambling. Icons like Las Vegas have not just been entertainment hubs but trendsetters. Even the word “Vegas” has become synonymous with gambling.

The world looks to the US for the perfect blend of entertainment and gambling. While Europe has led the online space, the US’s legacy gives it a unique edge. We’re here to merge the best of both worlds.

 

In the diverse US gambling market, how can companies ensure their offerings resonate with local audiences?

First things first, localization is key. By understanding the local culture, preferences, and regulations, companies can tailor their offerings to truly resonate with local audiences, setting their brand apart in the process.

Partnerships are also invaluable. Collaborating with local entities, whether they’re casinos or other businesses, can provide a solid foothold in new markets and offer mutual benefits. By actively engaging with the community, you can create lasting relationships with users.

Lastly, technology. By leveraging cutting-edge tech, you can offer seamless experiences, from mobile apps to VR casinos, appealing especially to the tech-savvy younger demographic.

 

Speaking of the younger demographic, how has the US gambling market evolved over the generations?

Historically, the US gambling market was centred around brick-and-mortar establishments like casinos in Las Vegas and Atlantic City. The older generation, the Baby Boomers, saw the rise of these iconic destinations. However, with the advent of technology, Millennials and Gen Z are now more inclined towards online platforms, mobile apps, and eSports betting.

 

What are the primary differences in gambling preferences between older and younger generations?

Baby Boomers and Gen X often prefer traditional casino games like slot machines, poker, and blackjack. They value the tactile experience and the social aspect of visiting a casino. On the other hand, Millennials and Gen Z are drawn to online slots, virtual sports, and fantasy leagues. They value convenience, tailored experiences, and the integration of gaming with social media.

 

Are there differences in attitudes towards responsible gambling across generations?

Absolutely. While all generations value responsible gambling, younger generations, armed with more information and digital tools, are more proactive. They often set betting limits, use self-exclusion tools, and are more aware of the signs of gambling addiction.

 

With the generational shift, do you see any challenges for the traditional gambling establishments in the US?

Right now, traditional establishments face the challenge of staying relevant. While they’ll always have a charm of their own, they need to innovate to attract younger crowds. This could mean integrating digital experiences, hosting eSports tournaments, or offering tech-driven amenities.

Companies are investing heavily in digital platforms, ensuring their offerings are mobile-friendly, and integrating with social media. They’re also collaborating with tech companies, exploring areas like virtual reality casinos and augmented reality games. Additionally, there’s a focus on responsible gambling tools tailored for digital platforms.

 

How do you ensure this responsible gaming experience?

We’re all about fun, but not at the expense of safety. We partner only with licensed casinos and have a vigilant team ensuring we’re always compliant. Plus, our focus on responsible gaming ensures players enjoy a balanced experience.

 

In short, what is Mr. Gamble’s vision for the US?

We’re here for the long haul. Our aim? To be the top choice for US online casino enthusiasts. We’re here to forge partnerships, understand the US pulse, and showcase what makes Mr. Gamble stand apart.

It’s also a learning opportunity, aligning our strategies with the market’s heartbeat. While we are in many ways experts, we still like to think of ourselves as students of the game (no pun intended).

Betsson has entered a new two-year partnership with Peristeri BC, a well-established Athens club with more than 50 years of history, competing in the top tier of Greek basketball and in European competitions. As part of the agreement, the team will now compete under its official name, Peristeri Betsson BC.

This collaboration reflects Betsson’s continued investment in Greek sport. With more than six decades of heritage and operations across 24 countries, Betsson’s strategy in Greece is centred around supporting historic clubs, strengthening local communities and contributing to the broader development of sport in the country. Following Mykonos Betsson and Aris Betsson, Peristeri Betsson BC represents the next step in building a network of sponsorships that carry meaningful cultural and community impact.

For Peristeri, the partnership provides strong strategic backing for the club’s competitive ambitions and its long-term mission to remain a reference point within Greek basketball. Both organisations share a commitment to professionalism, consistency and delivering high-quality experiences to fans. The collaboration will also include a suite of social impact initiatives focused on youth, education, equality and access to sport in Peristeri.

Andreas Nikolopoulos, Commercial Director at Betsson, said: “It is a great pleasure for all of us at Betsson to stand alongside a club with such a strong history and identity as Peristeri, a club that has been a reference point in Greek basketball for decades and continues to grow thanks to the steady and methodical work of its management. We do not view this merely as a sponsorship but as a strategic alliance. We share the same values with Peristeri, professionalism, consistency and a constant commitment to offering high-quality experiences to fans. We are committed to supporting them throughout this journey and we wish the team a season full of health, energy and success.”

Manos Kotsis, General Manager of Peristeri Betsson BC, said: “We are now officially Peristeri Betsson and will be for the next two years. Our approach is based on two pillars: reconnecting with our local community and bringing people back to the arena, and restoring Peristeri’s identity as a club that develops talent, whether local or international. We believe we have made meaningful progress over the past two years, but both goals require strong organisation, planning and method. We are delighted that Betsson is by our side supporting this effort and enabling us to move forward with greater confidence.”
