The Polish company GAMIVO is constantly improving its platform while coming up with more and more original promotions for its users. This time, gift cards worth 10 euros and additional bonuses in the game World of Warships are waiting for players. The promotion is aimed at novice World of Warship fans because in order to receive the prize, you need to create a new account and win 10 random battles in the game.

GAMIVO has achieved numerous highly successful collaborative promotions with major brands including Coca-Cola, PayPal, Żabka, and the aforementioned Wargaming. The fruitful outcomes from these three partnerships have prompted the companies to prepare for another joint venture, building upon their past triumphs.

The new action organized by GAMIVO and Wargaming launched on July 24 and will run until August 31, 2023. It is aimed at players from across the European Union who have not yet had the opportunity to play World of Warships. The prizes include a €10 gift card for shopping at GAMIVO and additional bonuses in the game itself. To win these, you need to achieve your first 10 victories in random battles, unlocking the “Amateur” achievement.

Last year, GAMIVO, alongside brands such as Hewlett-Packard, Cooler Master, Displate, Windscribe, and Discord Nitro, was a partner in a treasure hunt organized by Wargaming. At the time, the most successful players could also win a gift card for purchases on the GAMIVO platform. The treasure hunt turned out to be very popular with gamers.

The joint promotional activities are very stimulating for the further growth of the GAMIVO platform. The company has already made it possible to buy games with points from the Coca-Cola app (in Croatia and Slovenia) and regularly cooperates with Żabka on a similar basis. The company’s list of partners also includes game developers. In addition to the aforementioned Wargaming, this segment is represented by Plarium, for example.

“Developers of games or gaming hardware are, of course, natural partners for us. They know the market and its needs well, which makes it easier for us to cooperate with them. This is why our collaboration with Wargaming thrives, as we persistently discover innovative methods to provide players with exciting promotions. However, we try to think outside the box and look for partnerships outside the gaming industry, such as Coca-Cola, Żabka, or PayPal”, explains Paweł Zemka, CRO of GAMIVO.

GAMIVO already has 5 million registered users, most of whom are from Europe and North America. Thanks to the high quality of service and continuous development, the number of people using the platform is growing steadily. The company has had a financially excellent, record year and continues to strive for further growth. Revenues totaled more than PLN 44.2 million in 2022, an increase of 11 percent year-on-year. GMV indicator (turnover) also increased, amounting to PLN 232 million, up 15 percent year-on-year. Most notable, however, is the net profit of nearly PLN 7.1 million, up 115 percent year-on-year.

Esports Charts, the leading esports viewership analytics provider, has partnered with StarLadder, a pioneering tournament organiser. The Budapest Major 2025 marks a highly anticipated comeback for StarLadder, as it is their first Counter-Strike Major since 2019 and a significant return to the top-tier esports arena.

As the official analytics partner of the StarLadder Budapest Major 2025, Esports Charts will provide comprehensive, real-time audience data and insights throughout the event. This will empower organisers, teams, sponsors and fans with unparalleled transparency and a deeper understanding of the tournament’s global reach.

Artyom Odintsov, Co-founder and CEO of Esports Charts, said: “We are thrilled and proud to provide viewership analytics for StarLadder for the Budapest Major 2025. Since both Esports Charts and StarLadder are Ukraine-born companies, we share similar values and deal with similar challenges, which brings us even closer.

“It’s genuinely exciting to follow how viewership will develop at this Major. But knowing the expertise, drive, and passion that the organizers are bringing, I have no doubt we’ll witness some incredible things happen in Budapest.

“Esports Charts has always been driven by a mission to provide the esports community with accurate, actionable data, and we look forward to showcasing the impact and audience engagement of this world-class event.”

StarLadder has been a driving force in global esports for almost 15 years now, since hosting its first tournaments in 2011. Renowned for its innovation and reliability, the company has organised some of the industry’s most iconic events. These include the StarLadder Berlin Major 2019, which accumulated over 44 million hours watched and remains in the top 10 CS events by this metric, and the legendary StarSeries tournaments which started back in 2012.

Viacheslav Shcherbakov, Sales and Partnerships at StarLadder, said: “We’ve been working with Esports Charts since their founding and have always valued their professionalism and integrity. In a market where reliable data is essential, Esports Charts provides honest, transparent numbers, exactly the kind of insights sponsors and stakeholders rely on when assessing the potential reach of a World Championship event.

“We’re confident that this partnership will result in a high-quality analysis of our tournament’s performance and the audience data we’ll report to our partners. It’s a collaboration built on trust, shared values, and a deep understanding of what it takes to elevate esports to the next level.”

The Starladder Budapest Major 2025 will be held from November 24 to December 14 in Budapest, Hungary. The event will bring together the world’s top 32 Counter-Strike 2 teams to compete for a $1.25 million prize pool and one of the most prestigious titles in esports.
