Betbull, majority owned by Wynn Interactive Limited, is a next generation social sports betting company that has achieved rapid growth since launching in 2016. The business is expanding internationally through a key partnership with the Wynn Interactive group, which has invested heavily in scaling throughout the US market.[1]
CARS24 is a next generation ecommerce platform for pre-owned autos (cars and bikes). Founded in India in 2015, it is now valued at over $2 billion and backed by some of the world’s largest investors, including Softbank[2] . CARS24 has expanded into the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, and Australia, with more countries in the pipeline.
Commenting on the new agreements, Adveritas Co-Founder and CEO Mat Ratty said : “The online sports betting industry and ecommerce platforms are just two of the key verticals that we have been penetrating as we gain industry recognition and as our sales funnel expands. These contracts follow the success we have had in providing TrafficGuard trials to a large number of companies that have gone on to sign 12-month contracts with us.
“The betting and ecommerce verticals spend a significant amount on online advertising to attract and retain customers, so it is crucial that invalid traffic is detected and eliminated to optimise their return on advertising spend. Our solution, which was built out of demand, has consistently demonstrated an improvement in optimising the advertising spend of our clients and this is demonstrated by our strong renewal rate. TrafficGuard has quickly become the product of choice when it comes to protecting advertising spend from invalid traffic and we currently have some of the largest companies in their respective verticals on trial or signed up as paying customers with us.
