Esports Entertainment Group Begins Onboarding Hundreds of Affiliate Partners to Newly Relaunched VIE.gg Esports Betting Platform

Esports Entertainment Group, Inc., a licensed online gambling company with a focus on esports wagering and 18+ gaming, has officially begun onboarding hundreds of affiliate marketing partners to its newly relaunched VIE.gg wagering platform. The affiliate partners include esports teams, influencers, streamers, leagues, and super affiliates from Asia, Europe, North America and South America. The Company believes its Affiliate Marketing program will play a significant role in its organic growth.
MALTA LICENSE AND NASDAQ LISTING ARE MAJOR ATTRACTIONS FOR AFFILIATES
The Company’s recently announced Malta gaming license and recent listing on NASDAQ are cited by our affiliate partners as very strong factors in their decision to partner with VIE.gg. Though the Company first began registering a small sample of interested affiliates in 2018, these two factors have generated noticeable enthusiasm from existing and new affiliates who take great comfort in knowing the Company is working within one of the strictest licensing and listing regulatory environments, as compared to private operators.
Moreover, the Company’s financial strength as a result of its successful $8.4million public offering now provides VIE.gg with the resources necessary to support and grow its soon to be large affiliate partner base.
“Our Affiliate partners are a very important part of our organic growth strategy in 2020 and beyond, so it has been a high priority of ours to provide the comfort and security they need to partner with us and drive their valuable global audiences to VIE.gg,” said Grant Johnson, CEO of Esports Entertainment Group. “We believe that with the combination of our NASDAQ listing, capital raise and Malta license over the last 30 days we have a formidable competitive advantage to attract, support and grow with affiliate partners that we believe will lead to rapid organic growth for our newly relaunched VIE.gg esports wagering platform.”
Esports Entertainment offers bet exchange style wagering on esports events in a licensed, regulated and secure platform to the global esports audience at VIE.gg. Utilizing this peer-to-peer wagering system, the Company offers real-money, exchange-style wagering on esports events worldwide in a secure environment. The VIE.gg platform provides customers the ability to match bets against one another with Esports Entertainment taking a small commission on the winnings.
“Affiliate marketing is a proven growth model for online gambling,” commented Christian Heinrichs, Esports Affiliate Manager. “Our affiliate streamers broadcast to massive, global esports audiences. Combined with the credibility and support of the many teams and leagues we continue to sign as affiliates, we believe our VIE.gg platform can quickly become the industry standard for safe, secure esports betting.”

The Danish Gambling Authority Warns of Money Laundering Risks When Using Affiliates

Â
The Danish Gambling Authority has become aware that money laundering can occur through affiliates who market for gambling operators. Gambling operators that use affiliates should therefore consider whether this gives rise to updating their risk assessment.
An affiliate is a marketing channel where a person or company makes money by marketing for, for example, a gambling operator. The general consumer protection and marketing rules and the Gambling Actâs rules on marketing and communication also apply to affiliates. An affiliate earns money from the agreement by, for example, attracting new customers via their own website or through their own social network to the gambling operatorâs website with a link. The link is generated specifically for the affiliate. The affiliate receives payment for the referral (pay per click), or a certain percentage of the amount the new customer deposits into their account.
How criminals can exploit affiliate agreements with gambling operators
In affiliate agreements with an individual or a company, there is an inherent risk that a gambling operator will be misused for money laundering. Particularly organized criminal networks can exploit an affiliate agreement. Networks of organized criminals can refer a large number of people within their criminal network as customers using the link to a gambling operator. A larger amount of illegal funds can be deposited into customersâ gambling accounts, which will not initially look suspicious, as the amount is distributed among several people in the criminalâs network. The deposited funds can subsequently be paid out to customers, possibly after play-through from their gambling accounts. This approach will make it look like legitimate winnings from gambling, and at the same time the affiliate increases its profit by having brought more new customers to the gambling operator, who according to the affiliate agreement is usually paid per additional new customer.
Signs of money laundering through affiliates
The Danish Gambling Authority points out that gambling operators may risk being misused for money laundering through these affiliate agreements. It may indicate that a gambling operator is being misused for money laundering by its affiliate if a majority of the customers referred by the affiliate only use the gambling operatorâs website once and then no longer use the gambling operatorâs services. It may therefore be relevant to assess whether entering into an affiliate agreement gives rise to updating oneâs risk assessment.
