“Having a mobile-first approach when developing products is a must in today’s iGaming industry”, Delasport’s CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz comments. “Data shows that mobile users are now more than 70% of the whole player base, so we make sure to be prepared to bring our partners to this thriving market at any point.
