BGaming Launches Data-Driven Players Hub
Rapidly expanding content provider launches game-changing player engagement platform
Popular iGaming content provider BGaming announces the official launch of Players Hub, a platform designed to provide players with real-time data and insights, early access to games, and more. These features enable them to make informed decisions about how they play and to find the best games to suit their needs.
Players Hub is a milestone in BGaming’s three-year player-centric strategy. During the test period, over 5,000 organic player registrations were received without any promotion. Players Hub grants access to data aggregated from all game servers, including live RTP stats, top wins, and trending games. The roadmap also allows registered players to test upcoming titles, providing BGaming with valuable feedback ahead of releases.
Competition is also an essential element of the Players Hub, with leaderboards showcasing players’ biggest wins. BGaming aims to provide additional information for players, such as Hit Rate and Free Spin Hit Rate, which allows players to develop gaming strategies and find games that best suit their playing style. Moreover, registered players have access to more useful options, perks, and features in the Players Hub.
Alongside its player benefits, Players Hub is also an incredible resource for businesses. Its real-time data provides insights into player behaviour and helps understand what drives customer engagement and retention, essentially serving as a real-time focus group.
This also provides valuable feedback for BGaming and its partners, allowing the company to tweak its products and create games that constantly meet the evolving players’ demands. Affiliates can also effectively utilise it, optimising conversions and developing enhanced game positioning and engagement strategies.
Above all else, the Players Hub is a demonstration of BGaming’s capabilities and commitment to innovation. It is the culmination of three years of work with players, reinforcing the company’s position as a game-changing iGaming content provider.
Kate Puteiko, Chief Marketing Officer, said: “We are excited to continue studying player behavior and further developing our B2C initiatives. In addition to Players Hub, we have already launched MaxWin Club – a special project for gambling streamers who love our games and want to showcase their skills while winning unique prizes.
We also continue conducting game tests for our titles in development, gathering valuable feedback from players and streamers to refine and enhance our games. This gives us a great understanding of how players operate, which is invaluable to us, as a game provider, and our partners.”
