February presents one of the strongest seasonal windows for affiliates working with Tier-1 sports traffic — and N1 Partners is expanding the opportunities even further.
The affiliate program has strengthened its sports offering by making betting available across three brands: the flagship N1 Bet, alongside RollXO and Lucky Hunter. This multi-brand setup allows partners to scale sports traffic strategically while leveraging casino brands with proven conversion performance.
Instead of relying on a single product, affiliates can now diversify traffic flows, stabilize KPIs, and combine sports, casino, and seasonal promotional mechanics for stronger long-term results.
Why February Is a Prime Month for Sports Traffic
Conversion stability often depends on timing. Campaigns aligned with seasonal peaks, major sporting events, and emotionally engaging dates consistently outperform generic traffic launches.
February stands out due to:
-
A packed schedule of top European football leagues and international tournaments
-
The Winter Olympic Games
-
Valentine’s Day seasonal campaigns
-
Increased emotional engagement and deposit intent
During high-profile events and holiday periods, users are more likely to deposit, participate in promotions, and return to the platform. The right contextual hook can directly influence conversion rate, average deposit size, and retention.
To help affiliates capitalize on this momentum, N1 Partners has prepared a focused list of key February sports events and active promotional mechanics.
