Boomerang Partners brought TIME TO WIN to a close with 57 teams having competed for exclusive AC Milan-related rewards
On March 31, Boomerang Partners concluded their exclusive affiliate tournament, TIME TO WIN. Top-performing affiliate teams competed for prizes and unique experiences linked to AC Milan, of which Boomerang is an Official Regional Partner
Participation metrics and performance results
Held from February 12 to March 31, the TIME TO WIN tournament brought together 57 affiliate teams. In total, they generated 1,611 sports FTDs across multiple brands within Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio. 40% of participants joined as new partners for this tournament.
Engagement levels varied across teams. 37% completed at least two tasks, while one team completed the full set of tasks.
Rossoneri Hub as the tournament’s central platform
All tournament activity was managed through the Rossoneri Hub – a dedicated platform developed as part of Boomerang Partners’ collaboration with AC Milan. During the tournament period, the Hub attracted 33,268 visitors. It served as the main entry point, hosting tasks and tracking participants’ progress.
A format built covering the full affiliate lifecycle
The structure of TIME TO WIN combined multiple aspects of affiliate activity within a unified platform. Participants completed tasks across five segments: performance, SMM, PR, brand surveys, and reviews. All of these contributed to their overall score.
The tasks were clearly defined, with fixed points awarded for each completed action:
- Generating new sports users for brands within Boomerang Partners’ client portfolio – 10 points for each FTD
- Completing the brand survey – 25 points
- Contributing expert commentary as part of PR activities – 30 points
- Participating in a dedicated SMM challenge – 25 points
- Leaving a review on a selected platform – 20 points
The brand survey became the most popular task, while creative mechanics also played a role, including an AI-based challenge that resulted in 17 AC Milan kit concepts created by participants
AC Milan partnership as a value driver
A defining element of TIME TO WIN was its integration with AC Milan. All rewards were directly tied to the Club. This made the tournament more than a standard incentive program.
Participation gave affiliates access to experiences that reflect the level of the Boomerang Partners and AC Milan partnership – from merch packs and signed jerseys to matchday experiences and behind-the-scenes opportunities. These rewards cannot be replicated outside a top-tier football collaboration. They are designed as premium experiences.
Prize structure and winners
Winners will be determined across five prize tiers, each unlocked by reaching specific point thresholds. Notably, three teams (…) surpassed the 750-point threshold, qualifying for the top-tier experiences.
The prize structure included:
- Prize 1 (150 points): TIME TO WIN Merch Pack for a team of five (3–5 sets)
- Prize 2 (250 points): AC Milan official jerseys signed by players (five jerseys per set – 3–5 sets)
- Prize 3 (350 points): A trip to the AC Milan v Cagliari match for five people (one set)
- Prize 4 (550 points): A trip to the AC Milan v Juventus match, including pre-match access, for five people (one set)
- Prize 5 (750 points): A trip to Milanello Sports Center, the heart of AC Milan, for five people (two sets)
In total, 15 partner representatives will attend the AC Milan v Juventus match. The main prize includes one winning team of up to five participants, while additional attendees will join through the Milanello experience.
To support this activation, Boomerang Partners expanded its ticket allocation based on demand. The company increased premium tickets by 300% and total ticket volume by 212% compared to the standard quota.
Anton Eshtokin, Chief Marketing Officer at Boomerang Partners, commented: “TIME TO WIN delivered exactly what we set out to achieve, bringing partners into an active phase at the right moment of the sports season and showing how teams performed under the same conditions.
The integration with AC Milan added a different layer to the tournament. The prizes were experiences tied directly to the Club – something affiliates don’t typically get through standard formats.
At the same time, the results carry into the third season of Golden Boomerang Awards, where the focus shifts to performance over time. This continuity is key to how we structure competition.”
From TIME TO WIN to Golden Boomerang Awards 2026
TIME TO WIN was designed as an entry point into a broader competitive framework. Participants who reached the 100-point threshold received bonus points toward the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026. The annual affiliate tournament, organized by Boomerang Partners, officially launched on April 3, marking the start of its third season
This year’s competition is built around the “Beyond the Moment” concept, reflecting a shift from short-term results to sustained performance over time. Rather than rewarding isolated spikes, the format emphasizes consistency, strategic execution, and the ability to remain competitive throughout the entire competition period. Further participation details are available on the official GBA 2026 website.

Brazil
The IBJR stresses that combating the illegal market is crucial for Desenrola 2.0
The Brazilian Institute for Responsible Gaming (IBJR) warns that the effectiveness of financial protection measures in Desenrola 2.0 fundamentally depends on a rigorous fight against the illegal betting market.
It is also worth emphasizing that in 2025, bets placed on licensed platforms accounted for the equivalent of only 0.46% of household consumption in the country, an extremely small share within the Brazilian budget, according to data from a study by LCA Consultoria.
This reinforces that the main factor of indebtedness in the Brazilian budget continues to be the high cost of credit.
The entity also emphasizes that restrictions on access to the regulated sector may encourage users to migrate to clandestine platforms, which already move around R$ 40 billion per year and operate without any oversight or consumer protection mechanisms.
Combating the illegal market is the most urgent step to prevent unlicensed operators—often associated with organized crime—from exploiting periods of restriction to attract vulnerable audiences.
This concern is heightened by the proximity of the World Cup, a period of natural increase in the volume of sports betting, and by the potential loss of R$ 10.8 billion in revenue for the country if consumption shifts to the underground market.
The IBJR reinforces that the real protection of citizens and the integrity of Desenrola 2.0 depend on coordinated action between the government and the private sector.
The organization advocates for public policies that combine financial education, strengthening responsible gambling, and a strategic offensive against clandestine websites, ensuring that entertainment occurs exclusively within a safe, transparent, and properly monitored ecosystem.

This includes live race micro markets, predictive driver performance modeling, and large-scale race simulations that generate thousands of possible race outcomes per event, allowing for deeper and more accurate pricing across every lap.
“Formula 1 is one of the most complex and data-rich environments in global sport, and that complexity creates an opportunity to completely redefine the betting experience. Our platform is designed to unlock that potential at scale, and partnering with Caesars allows us to bring a truly differentiated, always-on product to market that reflects the speed, strategy, and unpredictability of Formula 1,” said Joe Dunnigan, CEO and Founder of ALT Sports Data.
