Finland’s Esports Betting Gets a Lift Through Oddin.gg and Veikkaus Partnership

Â
Oddin.gg, the leading B2B provider of esports betting solutions, is proud to announce a new partnership with Veikkaus, Finland’s state-owned betting operator. The agreement will see Oddin.gg’s technology and data powering Veikkaus’s growing esports offering—starting with a strong focus on Counter-Strike 2 (CS2).
Veikkaus has set ambitious goals for its esports portfolio, aiming to double related revenue within the next year. To support this growth, the operator is strengthening its focus on quality content, reliable infrastructure, and innovative engagement formats—all areas where Oddin.gg’s solutions will play a central role.
Veikkaus’s focus on CS2 made Oddin.gg a natural fit. Alongside traditional markets, Oddin.gg also brings exclusive CS2 Duels via its 24/7 Fast Betting Content offering, adding fresh engagement opportunities for bettors. This blend of data depth and product innovation supports Veikkaus’s commitment to delivering a best-in-class esports betting experience for its Finnish base.
Andreas Reimblad VP, Sports Betting at Veikkaus, commenting on the partnership said: “Esports have been an important part of Veikkaus’ portfolio for several years, but in recent years it has been challenging to deliver a truly competitive offering and experience.

Together, we can take esports betting at Veikkaus to the next level, and we are extremely excited to work together with Oddin.gg.”
Marek Suchar, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Oddin.gg added: “What makes this partnership exciting is the mindset Veikkaus brings.

By putting fans in the driver’s seat, we’re delivering an esports experience that’s not just more engaging, but truly revolutionary for bettors and spectators alike.”
