Revenue development in the financial year 2019:
In financial year 2019, the bet-at-home.com AG group achieved the highest betting and gaming volume in the company’s history with more than 3.2 billion euros. Gross betting and gaming revenue reached EUR 143.3 million, almost exactly the same as the previous year (FY 2018: EUR 143.4 million).
Betting fees and gaming levies in the financial year 2019 were slightly below the level of the previous year at EUR 20.9 million (FY 2018: EUR 21.0 million). VAT on electronic services resulted in a burden on earnings of EUR 4.9 million in the financial year 2019 (FY 2018: EUR 7.3 million).
Accordingly, the net betting and gaming revenue increased by 2.0% to EUR 117.5 million (FY 2018: EUR 115.1 million).
Further strengthening of brand awareness and expanding the customer base:
Due to the lack of a major sporting event, bet-at-home set its marketing focus of the year on the start of the European football leagues after the summer break in 2019 and expanded its involvement in top European sport to include further cooperations in ice hockey, volleyball, beach volleyball and basketball. Overall, marketing expenses in the financial year 2019 were EUR 39.8 million, therefore higher than in the same period of the previous year (FY 2018: EUR 38.3 million).
As of December 31, 2019, the bet-at-home.com AG Group had a total of more than 5.2 million registered customers (December 31, 2018: 5.0 million).
Earnings development in the financial year 2019:
In financial year 2019, EBITDA was EUR 35.2 million, EUR 1.0 million below the reference value of the same period in the previous year (FY 2018: EUR 36.2 million). Earnings before taxes (EBT) in financial year 2019 reached EUR 33.1 million (FY 2018: EUR 35.0 million).
As a result of a fiscal tax audit, corporate tax back payments in Austria from changes in group transfer pricing and, correspondingly, corporate tax reclaims in Malta resulted in a net additional charge of EUR 13.9 million in income taxes in the financial year 2019. This burden resulted in a group tax rate of 45.7% (FY 2018: 6.8%). The group tax rate for the financial year 2019, adjusted for one-time effects from the fiscal tax audit, is 18.2%.
Overall, the consolidated profit for the period in the financial year 2019 was EUR 18.0 million (FY 2018: EUR 32.6 million).

Partnership marks a new phase for the project in Feira de Santana and strengthens visibility, engagement and fan experience in Bahian football.
Superbet has signed a major partnership with Feira FC, a newly established football SAF based in Feira de Santana, Brazil. The betting operator will serve as the club’s main sponsor and will also acquire the naming rights of its home stadium.
As part of the agreement, Estádio Professor Jodilton Souza, known as Arena Cajueiro, will be renamed Superbet Arena — a move that marks a milestone in the club’s development strategy and reinforces its positioning as an emerging asset in Brazilian football.
Modern and established infrastructure
Located in Feira de Santana, the stadium was inaugurated in 2018 as part of a broader sports complex featuring athlete facilities, a gym, meeting spaces and an auditorium, positioning itself as a fully integrated football environment.
In the following years, it underwent expansions, including structural development in 2020 and a new stand in 2021, reaching an estimated capacity of around 7,000 spectators.
The venue has also hosted key matches, including the 2021 Bahia State Championship final involving interior clubs, highlighting its relevance in the regional football landscape.
Strategic partnership driving growth
With the agreement, Superbet Arena becomes directly integrated into Feira FC’s growth strategy, expanding opportunities for brand activation, visibility and fan engagement.
The partnership brings together a rising football project and an established global brand, creating a platform for experiences both on and off the pitch.
“The arrival of Superbet as naming rights partner of our arena represents an important step in consolidating Feira FC,” said Neto Lima, investor and face of the club.
“This is a strategic partnership that strengthens our assets, expands our visibility and creates new ways to connect with fans. It reinforces the seriousness and potential of the project.”
Alex Fonseca, CEO of Superbet in Brazil, also commented on the agreement:
“The naming rights of Superbet Arena and the main sponsorship are based on a shared vision between Superbet and Feira FC about the future of sport, combining sporting development with a digital and innovative approach.
This partnership goes beyond the pitch and represents an investment in visibility for the Northeast and in the strengthening of Bahian football.”
A step forward for Feira de Santana’s football profile
Beyond the name change, Superbet Arena symbolizes the evolution of a project built on innovation, digital strength and close fan engagement as pillars of growth.
The initiative also reinforces Feira de Santana’s role as a strategic football hub in Bahia’s interior, increasing the city’s visibility and consolidating the venue as one of the key stages of Bahian football.
The arena now goes beyond being the home of Feira FC and positions itself as a relevant asset for regional sports development.
SAF structure and leadership
Feira FC is a football SAF created and managed by businessman and lawyer Marcus Rios. The vice presidency is held by Mayara Correa, while Neto Lima acts as investor, ambassador and main public face of the club. Bruno Karttos also serves as one of the club’s ambassadors, strengthening its connection with fans and communication strategy.
