SCCG Announces Strategic Partnership with Boosted Bets

SCCG Management has announced a strategic partnership with Boosted Bets, an innovative platform redefining sports betting contests with a performance-based model. This collaboration will focus on business development, capital-raising support, and global distribution, connecting Boosted Bets with strategic partners across SCCG’s ecosystem, including sportsbook platforms, operators, data providers, CRM, and gamification partners.
Boosted Bets introduces a new way for sports bettors to prove their skills through a contest-based wagering model. Players enter a paid challenge, receiving a simulated betting account with a larger bankroll—giving them the ability to place bets as if they were high-stakes bettors. Those who successfully pass the challenge earn real money with their winning picks while adhering to strict risk management rules. This performance-based approach allows bettors to showcase their expertise while competing for profits, creating a sustainable, skill-driven alternative to traditional sports betting.
Through its proven prop-firm business model, Boosted Bets generates revenue by offering structured betting challenges where participants must meet predefined profit and risk criteria to progress. While only a small percentage of players succeed, those who do gain access to a higher-tier simulated betting account—increasing engagement and retention. This model has already demonstrated success in other financial markets, and Boosted Bets is now bringing this innovation to the sports betting industry, an emerging and high-growth sector.
SCCG Management will leverage its global network and industry expertise to secure strategic integrations with sportsbook operators, affiliate partners, and gaming platforms, positioning Boosted Bets as the go-to platform for performance-based betting challenges. The partnership will also focus on capital-raising efforts to fuel expansion, as well as introducing Boosted Bets to new international markets.
“Boosted Bets is transforming the way sports bettors engage with contests, merging skill-based competition with a structured, high-stakes betting experience. Their innovative approach is a game-changer in the industry, providing a fresh and engaging alternative to traditional sports betting. SCCG is excited to support their expansion, connecting them with top-tier operators and driving their global distribution,” Stephen Crystal, Founder & CEO of SCCG Management, said.
“Boosted Bets is revolutionizing the sports betting landscape by empowering bettors to leverage their skills in a way that’s never been done before. Our partnership with SCCG is a pivotal step toward globalizing this groundbreaking, gamified model, setting a new standard for what sports betting can and should be,” David Dombrowsky, CEO of Boosted Bets, said.
