LeanConvert signs partnership with Betsson Group
Leading website optimisation service to assist with the future of digital and mobile gaming entertainment specialist
LeanConvert, the world’s fastest growing customer experience, analytics and engineering company has signed a partnership agreement with Betsson Group, which sees the tier one operator take a substantive step towards investing in their business sustainability for the future.
Famed for helping the world’s biggest brands drive website optimisation and achieve impressive ROI increases with a proficiency in the gaming and gambling sector, LeanConvert will be utilising their creative approach to multivariate testing to reshape Betsson’s conversion rate optimisation services, along with reviewing the igaming operator’s overall strategic approach.
LeanConvert’s unique application of Lean Methodology allows their clients to do more with fewer resources, an objective which has proven invaluable to many during the current Covid-19 situation as companies adapt to and continue along their digital transformation pathways.
The London based website and business optimisation company is completely platform agnostic, meaning they have comprehensive expertise with all available software vendors on the market. This allows for a fully conceptualised build and the use of bespoke solutions which best fit a company’s requirements.
Operating 20+ brands across 16 jurisdictions demonstrates Betsson Group’s importance within the industry. This new association has the specific aim of cementing that stake for the innovative operator and streamlining their global operations to increase capacity in a viable manner.
Tim Axon, Managing Director of LeanConvert, said: “Betsson Group really has stood out as a company that prioritises digital innovation. We’re excited to work with a team that’s constantly looking to better understand their players and thus create more meaningful and engaging experiences for them.
“Now is a crucial time for taking things a step further than ‘digital transformation’. We’re going to ramp up Betsson’s testing velocity and scale in order to build one of the most advanced personalisation setups and strategies in the gaming sector.”
“When it comes to the new compliance regulations, you can optimise for player safety and conversion at the same time. It’s not necessarily an inverse relationship. It’s an opportunity to strengthen your personalisation and segmentation strategy.”
“Investing in personalisation is a safe bet for ROI, if you’re investing properly. We’re looking forward to strengthening Betsson’s approach to experimentation and being a catalyst for exponential growth.”
Ciara Nic Liam, Commercial Director, Gaming Betsson Group, said: “2020 has been relatively challenging for most businesses, and the issues brought about by the global pandemic and reacting to them has driven a phenomenal amount of innovative thinking throughout the group and the industry as a whole.
“Partnering with LeanConvert to investigate and better our strategic processes and offering, as well as our overall customer experience through their unique technologies and expertise will not only strengthen our market position, but ultimately make Betsson even more robust for the future.”
