TORONTO, Aug. 04, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- i3 Interactive Inc. (“i3Interactive” or the “Company”) (CSE: BETS) (FRA: F0O3) is pleased to report after Dan Bilzerian’s first marketing initiative this past Friday resulted in over 100,000 customers for a blackjack tournament with $40,000 in prizes. Chris Neville the CEO of i3 Interactive was quoted as saying “I’ve been in the online gambling sector for close to 20 years and in my time, I have never seen a marketing initiative with such an immediate impact which in the long term will potentially drive a large revenue stream to i3 Interactive. Some of the largest brands in North America have databases with only 1 million active registrations and currently have multibillion-dollar market caps. These results from one Instagram marketing activation were a surprise to our very seasoned management team and prove we have the ability to acquire customers at a rate our competition cannot compete long term.”
The company has stated they have plans to enter many International countries with both their casino product and sportsbook in the coming year. CEO Chris Neville said “Mr. Bilzerian has an attractive global following of more than 50 million followers with the perfect demographic of online gambling customers and we have the ability to gain customers with such a low cost of acquisition that we will have a much higher return on our marketing investment than our competition. We have a built-in database through Dan of 50 million people and it’s growing at double digits year over year and we are poised to work diligently to monetize this large following for years to come.”
Mr. Neville confirmed with their International expansion into new markets will be with the tier one sportsbook and casino product from Amelco UK limited. Amelco is the supplier of choice for a number of the industry’s multi-territory tier-one operators, including Flutter, GVC and Stars Group. In gaming, Blitzbet has access to over 1,000 games from leading games providers including Evolution Gaming’s Live Casino.
The Company also has plans to offer more contests that will allow their customers to win exclusive experiences with Dan Bilzerian and build their already growing customer base. Neville also said “Dan has a top brand world-wide and a loyal following so when people have the chance to win trips to meet Dan, attend sporting events with him, or spend a day in the life of Mr. Bilzerian to see how he lives, customers will feel an engagement to our brand that they do not get anywhere else.
