Gambling.com Group Ready for Launch of Online Sports Betting in New York State with NewYorkBets.com
Gambling.com Group Limited, a leading provider of player acquisition services for the regulated global online gambling industry, is ready to provide marketing services to licensed online sports betting operators in New York State once legal online sports betting begins on Saturday, January 8th, 2022 at 9 am.
In anticipation of the launch of legal online sports betting in New York, the Group has developed two New York specific websites where sports bettors can find trusted, comprehensive, and up-to-date information on sports betting in the state. The Group also stands ready to help New York licensed online gambling operators acquire players with its national and international websites, including Bookies.com and Gambling.com.
Gambling.com Group Resources for New York State Sports Betting:
- NewYorkBets.com: A New York specific sports betting consumer information portal where bettors can find and evaluate the various licensed operators of online sports betting with expert product reviews written by our team of industry insiders. Bettors will also benefit from betting coverage of sporting events occurring in New York State or with New York based teams.
- EmpireStakes.com: An additional New York specific portal whose coverage also includes sports betting as well as additional information from an industry standpoint on legislative, licensing, and revenue updates.
- Bookies.com: A national sports betting information portal featuring expert picks, realtime odds comparison tools, and independent reviews of the top legal, licensed, and regulated sportsbooks in New York and elsewhere in the U.S.
- Gambling.com: The Group’s flagship website featuring the latest sports betting and gambling news along with comprehensive consumer education resources for sports bettors in New York and the rest of the U.S., as well as in international markets
New York State, with over 20 million residents, will be by far the most populous state with legal online sports betting. Gambling.com Group has been preparing for New York to go live for several years, launching EmpireStakes.com in 2021. EmpireStakes.com reported through a YouGov survey, that 1 in 3 New York adults are likely to place legal sports bets once online sports betting is regulated in the state.
“It is difficult to overstate the significance of New York State going live with legal online sports betting,” said Charles Gillespie, Chief Executive Officer of Gambling.com Group. “As the largest state by population to accept legal sports bets in the U.S. to date, there is a massive opportunity for the New York market to be not just the biggest jurisdiction for sports betting in the country, but in the world. Gambling.com Group is well positioned to help operators and customers succeed in this new and very exciting market.”
“New York State allowing several sportsbooks to take legal sports bets in advance of the 2022 College Football Playoff National Championship and the NFL Playoffs is, without question, the single largest catalyst to regulated gambling in the U.S. since Supreme Court’s decision to invalidate PASPA in 2018,” said Max Bichsel, Vice President at Gambling.com Group. “As a resident of New York, this is an exciting moment for sports bettors to finally place safe and responsible wagers with legal sportsbooks, after years of discussion and negotiation. With passionate sports fans and some of the most storied sports franchises, we expect that the New York market will likely quickly surpass its neighbor, New Jersey, in terms of sports betting handle and Gambling.com Group is prepared to take full advantage.”
Based on the guidelines established by the New York State Gaming Commission, Gambling.com Group satisfies the necessary requirements to provide marketing services to licensed operators in the State of New York.

Adjusted EBITDA
Bragg Gaming Announces Select Preliminary Unaudited Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2025 Financial Results, and Issues Full Year 2026 Guidance
Bragg Gaming Group has announced that its preliminary unaudited financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025 are expected to come within its previously issued guidance ranges for both revenue and Adjusted EBITDA.
The Company anticipates the fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results to include the following highlights:
Fourth quarter 2025 revenues to be approximately EUR 27.7 million, an increase of 1.8% from EUR 27.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, and Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately EUR 6 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin2 of approximately 16.6%), compared to EUR 4.7 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 17.2%) in the fourth quarter of 2024. High-margin proprietary content revenue grew by 70% in Q4-2025 over Q4-2024, primarily driven by growth in the US.
Full year 2025 revenues to be approximately EUR 106.1 million, an increase of 4.0% from EUR 102.0 million in 2024, and Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately EUR 16.6 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 15.6%), compared to EUR 15.8 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 15.5%) in 2024. The Company notes that, excluding the Netherlands given its challenging regulatory environment, expected 2025 revenues would represent an 18% increase from 2024, driven by the Company’s performance in Brazil and the US.
These figures are preliminary and unaudited, and actual revenues, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA margin may differ.
Bragg is providing this information at this time because of planned investment community meetings to be held ahead of the release of its fourth and full year 2025 financial results and conference call in March 2026.
Anticipated Financial Highlights for 2026
Revenue Guidance: Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2026 is expected to be in the range of EUR 97.0 million to EUR 104.5 million, despite Bragg anticipating that it will have to continue navigating increasingly complex regulatory compliance requirements and recent tax changes in the Netherlands and other regions in which the Company operates.
Adjusted EBITDA Guidance: Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2026 is forecasted to be in the range of EUR 16.0 million to EUR 19.0 million (representing an Adjusted EBITDA Margin of approximately 16.0% to 18.0%), supported by factors which include a continuing shift toward higher-margin product offerings and the structural cost savings expected from Bragg’s recently announced initiative to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to drive cost efficiencies and improve operational excellence.
Matevž Mazij, Chief Executive Officer for Bragg, said: “Based on the preliminary results, we delivered another record year in 2025, as demonstrated by increased revenue and higher Adjusted EBITDA. Now in 2026, we remain confident in our ability to successfully navigate evolving international regulatory and taxation developments, continue to increase our overall content market share in Brazil and the United States, aggressively pursue emerging alternative markets, such as Historical and Live Racing and Prediction Markets, and move into new jurisdictions that offer opportunities for higher margin content business. At the same time, we plan on thoughtfully harnessing the power of the Bragg AI Brain to reduce our overall cost structure, drive EBITDA growth, and move toward sustained net profitability. We look forward to updating investors as we progress.”
