Award-winning platform provider records all-time high performance numbers across both sportsbook and casino verticals
Global sports betting platform provider FSB has announced a string of monthly performance records for March 2024.
The UK based platform provider reported all-time high figures across the Net Gaming Revenue (NGR) and Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) metrics, with NGR climbing 26% year on year. Supplementing these numbers, sportsbook margin was at a two year high combined with platform wide casino turnover reaching record levels (up 46% year on year) as Q1 ended successfully for the EGR Multi-Channel Supplier of the Year winners.
Powering ambitious operators across UK & Ireland, Africa, Eastern Europe and Ontario, FSB were able to enjoy the fruits of a busy March sporting calendar that included the Cheltenham Festival, Champions League, NCAA March Madness as well as a packed Premier League football schedule.
The record breaking month comes just eight weeks after FSB announced a significant strategic partnership with multimedia South African operator SuperSportBet.
Adam Smith, Chief Executive Officer at FSB, said: “These striking March performance results are extremely pleasing for us at FSB. The growth we are experiencing demonstrates that our strategy is delivering value internally and to our partners.
The recent launch of SuperSportBet in South Africa plus other new global operators have added substantial depth to our top-tier partner pool.
With sportsbook margin at a two year high, I must also congratulate our industry leading trading and risk team who successfully navigated a challenging Cheltenham Festival to emerge with unprecedented numbers for March, which is further cementing our position as The Sportsbook Specialists.
We now look forward to a busy April headlined by the Grand National, Masters golf and crunch period of the football season confident in our continued ability to deliver outstanding bottom line returns to our growing, global portfolio of partners.”

DigiPlus Interactive Launches “Pusta de Peligro” Campaign
The DigiPlus Interactive Corporation, with its social development arm, BingoPlus Foundation, has launched the “Pusta de Peligro” campaign, pioneering a responsible gaming initiative to empower Filipino players with the knowledge and tools to make better choices in their gaming experiences. This campaign leverages the relatable term Petsa de Peligro—which reflects the need to be prudent before paydays in the Philippines as a metaphor for moments when players must exercise caution and discipline in their gaming.
The Pusta de Peligro campaign aligns DigiPlus Interactive with the efforts of PAGCOR in promoting responsible gaming and playing with a trusted operator, demonstrating a shared commitment to keeping gaming safe and enjoyable. A three-pronged approach to prevention, education and intervention anchors the campaign’s objective to teach Filipinos how to know the risks, set limits and get the right support.
Last November 14, DigiPlus and BingoPlus Foundation held the “Tamang Laro, Tamang Panalo! Wais Tips for Pusta de Peligro Moments” hybrid talk show in its headquarters in front of over 200 audiences on-site and online.
The show was split into two sessions with the first one being the “Tamang Laro” episode–Teresita Cambe-Castillo, licensed psychologist, chairperson of the board of Seagulls Flock Organisation and International Gambling Certification Board member, discussed how to spot the signs of excessive gaming and provide mental health support for oneself or others.
In the afternoon, proven financial guru Armand Bengco led the conversation in the “Tamang Panalo” episode, teaching the viewers how to continue winning by knowing how to handle money, build an entertainment fund and spend responsibly.
The “Tamang Laro, Tamang Panalo!” hybrid talk show is proof that DigiPlus, through BingoPlus Foundation, is committed to advancing an education campaign that goes beyond reminders on responsible gaming habits, but also gives actionable, practical tips to better manage their entertainment fund through financial literacy learning sessions, and spot the signs and provide psychological first aid for excessive gaming.
“We’re committed to more than just delivering exciting digital entertainment. With Pusta de Peligro, we’re taking responsibility to help players be mindful, enjoy responsibly, and stay financially aware,” said Rafael Jasper Vicencio, Director of DigiPlus Interactive and President of AB Leisure Exponent and Total GameZone Xtreme, the operator of BingoPlus Stores and developer of its beloved games.
Celeste Jovenir, COO of BingoPlus Foundation and Vice President of DigiPlus Interactive, said: “Pusta de Peligro is just the beginning. We are committed to setting the bar as a responsible industry leader, helping Filipinos navigate gaming wisely, for truly enjoyable and rewarding experiences with us.”
