Beyond the Hype: How Affiliates Built a Sustainable Success Story with Aviamasters™

Published

Reading Time: 3 minutes

 

The rise of casual games in recent years has been difficult to ignore. Otherwise known as crash or instant-win titles, they have proven to be a massive hit with players. Their mobile-friendly interfaces, social features, and made-for-streaming gameplay have made them a viral sensation and have seen many top studios get involved with their own iterations.

However, this market saturation has led to many of these games, especially aviation-themed ones, flying off into the distance and being very quickly forgotten. With every studio trying to crack the market, it can be extremely difficult to achieve long-term, sustainable success.

A Successful Launch

Fortunately, with Aviamasters™, we have struck gold. Not only has our game managed to go viral, but it has also maintained continued, impressive growth over a sustained period. This has been no easy feat. While engaging and unique gameplay mechanics no doubt play their part, the real secret to Aviamasters™’ longevity has been its organic, affiliate-driven growth that has helped create a loyal userbase and allowed it to become a word-of-mouth hit.

Of course, you shouldn’t just take our word for it. The most compelling evidence of Aviamasters™’s success is its impressive metrics. Over a five-month period, the game saw a 740% increase in new players. However, this is not just a fleeting trend or a moment in the spotlight; the game has shown steady growth since its launch.

An Online Community

We believe the root cause of much of this growth is the game’s unique feature — landing the plane and its inherent unpredictability — combined with its incredible online presence and traction, which affiliates and streamers have played a massive role in. The game has generated significant buzz on social media, with over 500 million TikTok views and more than 200 new videos being uploaded daily. This virality has been reinforced by strong affiliate campaigns that have helped build an active community around the game.

This collaborative, community-led approach has helped set Aviamasters™ apart from other games that have struggled to take off in the same way. It has allowed it to create a self-sustaining engine of growth, with new players coming to the game repeatedly.

Of course, there is also a domino effect on the game’s success. The continued interest in Aviamasters™ generates interest in other BGaming products, which, in turn, benefits our operating partners hosting them.

As such, the game is no longer just a huge hit for us, but also a crucial entry funnel for new audiences and their introduction to our products. Likewise, this is hugely beneficial to our operators, providing them with returning customers.

This popularity with our operating partners has been reflected in the demand for custom versions of the game. Shuffle released its own take on the game with Happy Bird, while RainBet offers its own unique version of Aviamasters™, both of which have been a huge success. This level of brand integration highlights the confidence that our partners have in the game. It also demonstrates how Aviamasters™ has become an essential product in their library.

A Recipe for Success

While the numbers tell an impressive story, the success of Aviamasters™ ultimately comes down to its unique gameplay mechanic that has been well-executed and has connected with an audience. The simple combination of something easy to grasp and also deeply engaging has allowed the game to take off and become a viral hit organically.

This, combined with a robust promotional ecosystem and a strong online community, has enabled Aviamasters™ to create a blueprint for casual games looking to build an audience and succeed in an increasingly competitive and challenging market.

StatRankings, the ultimate data hub for sports fans, bettors, and fantasy players, announced the launch of its new website. Designed for speed, simplicity, and privacy, StatRankings helps users make smarter decisions by removing the clutter of outdated, stat sites. With more than 500 NFL data points organized on dedicated, ad-free pages, fans can instantly find the data they need to help set fantasy lineups or put together a betting slip without endless tables, pop-ups, or dashboards getting in the way.

“The sports stats industry has been stuck in the past for too long. These sites supposedly designed for bettors, fantasy players, and media are archaic, cumbersome, and confusing. We are committed to keeping the experience of finding stats as smooth and easy as possible, without all the noise. We want StatRankings to represent a new standard in how sports data can be delivered,” said Kevin Adams, Founder of StatRankings and fantasy sports industry veteran.

In addition to the launch of its website, StatRankings created a partnership with One Week Season, a premium DFS (Daily Fantasy Sports) subscription service that offers content, tools, and community. StatRankings data will be used across shows and articles found on One Week Season’s site for the duration of the NFL season.

“One Week Season is all about teaching people the ‘how’ when it comes to becoming a better DFS player. StatRankings helps us in that mission by making sharper and deeper data more accessible and doing so in a manner that has previously been awkward and downright clumsy. By incorporating StatRankings into our content, we’re able to offer the most optimized insights to our users for their success,” said One Week Season’s CEO Jordan Tohline.
