CEO Comment
“Strong finish to the best year ever for Betsson — we continue to strengthen our position as one of the global leaders in gaming and betting.
“As we put 2024 behind us, we can conclude that it was the best year ever for Betsson, where we continued to strengthen our position as one of the global leaders in gaming and betting. The year was characterized by high growth, strengthened profitability and strategic investments in line with our long-term goals and our vision to offer the best gaming experience in the industry.
“Our investments in the Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia (CEECA) regions continue to be a key driver of the Group’s growth, and we have successfully built a strong position in several key markets using our expertise in online gaming and our proprietary technology platform and sportsbook. Our commitment to sports and marketing through strategic sponsorships has also played an important role in strengthening Betsson’s brand and engaging our players globally.
“Our investments to strengthen the product offering and increase brand awareness contributed to the excellent results for the year. For the full year 2024 we passed one billion euros in revenue for the first time, which was 17 percent higher than the previous year. At the same time, the EBIT margin strengthened to over 23 percent thanks to our scalable business model and continued cost control. The cash flows of the business and the robust balance sheet enable us to keep paying attractive dividends to our shareholders while we continue investing in future growth. For 2024, the Board has proposed an increased ordinary dividend of 0.657 euros per share, and a special dividend of 0.10 euros per share.
“During the fourth quarter we saw sustained high customer activity in both casino and sports betting. New records were set across the board on a Group level – customer deposits, gaming turnover, revenue and EBIT were the highest ever in a single quarter. Revenue increased by 22 percent and hence passed 300 million euros for the first time in a single quarter. At the same time, EBIT increased by 23 percent compared to the corresponding period in the previous year.
“I would like to thank our employees for their dedication and hard work, which have been instrumental in our continued growth over the past year. We have a fantastic team that continues to deliver exceptional results, and their passion and expertise, combined with our strong corporate culture, position us well for the future.
“We continue to forge new paths and act as pioneers in everything we do and look forward to continuing our growth journey in 2025. Geographic expansion and diversification remain key words for us, and we have a full pipeline of activities to support continued growth. With disciplined capital allocation, promising strategic initiatives and our commitment to strengthening the customer experience, we are confident that we can continue to create long-term value for our shareholders and customers.”

New hero video brings together four football icons as Stake aims to place fans at the centre of the global football conversation
Stake Unveils Ambassador-Led Football Campaign
Stake has unveiled a new international football campaign featuring brand ambassadors Iker Casillas, Sergio Agüero, Eden Hazard and Patrice Evra, bringing together four of the game’s most recognisable figures in a hero video designed to capture the anticipation, excitement and emotion surrounding one of football’s biggest global tournaments.
The campaign, titled “It’s All At Stake”, forms part of Stake’s wider strategy to engage football fans across key international markets during a period expected to dominate sporting and cultural conversations around the world. The full campaign film is now available to watch on YouTube.
Four Football Icons, One Global Campaign
Created in partnership with specialist production teams, the campaign follows the four former internationals as they navigate the excitement, pressure and unpredictability that make major football tournaments such a unique global spectacle.
Combining humour, personality and football nostalgia, the creative reflects Stake’s continued investment in culturally relevant content that resonates with sports fans beyond the action on the pitch.
The campaign marks the first time Casillas, Agüero, Hazard and Evra have appeared together in a Stake production. Collectively, the quartet represent some of football’s most memorable moments of the modern era, having won major domestic, European and international honours throughout their careers.
Multi-Channel Distribution Strategy
The hero film is being distributed across Stake’s digital channels, including YouTube, Instagram and X, supported by ambassador amplification and additional promotional activity across international markets.
Alongside the main campaign film, Stake has released supporting social content across its channels, including an Instagram Reel showcasing key moments from the campaign.
The campaign has also been amplified through Stake’s official X account, where football fans can engage with and share campaign content.
The campaign has been designed to drive engagement among football audiences while reinforcing Stake’s position as one of the most visible brands operating within the sports and entertainment space.
Connecting Fans Through Football’s Biggest Moments
Football remains one of the world’s most powerful cultural forces, bringing together hundreds of millions of fans across continents, languages and generations.
Through its growing roster of ambassador partnerships and football-focused content initiatives, Stake continues to invest in campaigns that connect with supporters during the sport’s most significant moments.
The launch follows a period of sustained growth in Stake’s global sports marketing activity. By working with internationally recognised athletes and creating original content around major sporting events, the company has continued to strengthen its presence among football audiences worldwide.
As anticipation builds throughout the tournament period, Stake’s latest campaign aims to celebrate the passion, conversation and shared experiences that make football’s biggest occasions so memorable for fans everywhere.
