  • CEO Scott Burton today issued the following statement regarding legislation that was introduced by the Federal Government to legalize single-event sports betting in Canada.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(November 27, 2020) – FansUnite Entertainment Inc. (CSE: FANS) (OTCQB: FUNFF) (“FansUnite” or the “Company”) CEO Scott Burton today issued the following statement regarding legislation that was introduced by the Federal Government to legalize single-event sports betting in Canada.

The proposed federal government legislation will give provinces and territories in Canada the discretion to offer single-event sports betting products and manage single-event sports betting either online or in a physical facility in their respective jurisdictions.

“We are pleased that the federal government has decided to introduce legislation to legalize single-event sports wagering in Canada,” said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite Entertainment. “This is the first important step to making sports betting competitive in this country, followed by the potential for outside operators to participate in the Canadian market. With our team and global experience in regulated jurisdictions, we are positioned to capitalize on this opportunity if and when it happens.”

TGS Esports Announces Intent to Acquire Canadian Esports and Digital Media Startup, Volcanic Media

There is no denying the world of esports was already on a rapid growth rate prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.  However, according to TGS Esports (TGS:TSXV), the growth and awareness of esports over the past several months has accelerated the industry by at least a couple of years, if not more.

Recognizing this trend, TGS pivoted quickly from venue based esports to becoming a leader in esports events, sponsorship and productions.  More than just lip service, tournaments hosted to date have been sponsored by the likes of:

  • Pepsi
  • Red Bull
  • 7-11
  • Shaw Cable

More than just events, TGS also creates high quality production value out of these events, which have already seen more than 20,000 hours of viewership on Twitch and featured on GINX Esports TV (Canada), with the potential to expand with GINX to over 50 countries.

If the story ended there, TGS would have the makings of a great early stage esports story …. but it doesn’t

$6 MILLION ACQUISITION OF “PEPPER ESPORTS” 

The recent acquisition of Pepper Esports takes the TGS offering to a whole different level by providing everyone from enterprise sized clients to small business to a group of buddies to create their own esports tournaments.  The platform is so powerful it will handle everything from registration to game play, prize payouts and everything in between that an entity needs to host a successful esports tournament.
Awesome right?  No, it gets better.  

Hosting your own esports tournament is FREE.  TGS and Pepper figured out that the best way to get mass usage of their platform is to make it $0 upfront and generate $$ from revenue share on all transactions that take place during the tournament.

When you bolt on the fact that TGS can now broadcast that tournament, the Company believes its offering can’t be matched anywhere in the world.  We like it so much that we’re already considering hosting Agoracom esports tournaments for clients and shareholders who can either play or watch. 

Watch this great interview with the CEO’s of both TGS and Pepper to find out more details and feel their mutual excitement about the future.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 9:30 PM on Sunday, November 8th, 2020

The global online gambling market could potentially hit $1 TRILLION by the end of this decade. That isn’t a typo and the reasons are pretty clear – more jurisdictions are legalizing online gambling to get their hands on the tax revenue and the remaining 40% of people on the planet without internet access are going to get it.  

Until recently, however, small-cap investors did not have a company that could provide them ground floor exposure to this massive market and its growth over the next 10 years.  The industry was dominated by the big traditional gambling companies, who focus heavily on old fashioned gambling. 

That all changes with FansUnite, the small cap iGaming super company that goes beyond simple gambling and attacks both sides of the iGaming market by offering both B2C and B2B gambling platforms. 

More than just lip service, the formation of this iGaming super company became a reality this summer when FansUnite acquired Askott Entertainment recently, the highlights of which are as follows:  

  • $27,000,000 Acquisition
  • Over $350,000,000 In Total Bets
  • Over 300,000 Registered Users
  • Strong Emphasis On Esports
  • Over 6,000 Casino Games Onto Platform
  • $5,000,000 Financing In Support Of The Acquisition
  • World Renowned Team

…. And now FANS is already setting monthly records.  
If that was all FANS had to say, this would already be a big announcement … but watch this interview to hear how fast they are expanding globally, as well as, how FANS is positioned for a proposed change to Canadian gambling laws that could become a massive opportunity for this Canadian gambling and gaming company.

If you are looking for a disruptive technology company that is well positioned to carve out its share of the massive online gambling world, then you need to watch or listen to this interview with FANS CEO, Scott Burton.

Watch this interview or listen by Podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify or your favourite podcaster.

The UK Sportsbook set company records with triple-digit growth in multiple areas, led by a 433% increase in overall revenue compared to October 2019 and a total Gross win of $602K CAD during the month. Much of the growth was attributed to the unveiling of McBookie’s live casino games and increased activity in sports betting which resulted in $7.3M in total betting volume being placed during the month.

McBookie’s new Live Casino product, encompassing multiple tables and variations of blackjack, roulette and baccarat, all with live real dealers, garnered substantial interest from online bettors.

During the month:

  • Gross Win was $197K CAD an increase of 679% as compared to October 2019.

Sports Segment

McBookie added new features, including ‘bet builder’, which enables online bettors to fully customize and build their bets across any number of markets, and instantly receive a price on their desired wager. The user-friendly feature combined with a full slate of English soccer fixtures and the Scottish National Soccer Team’s presence in the prestigious UEFA European Championship qualifiers, helped propel the company to new financial heights.

During the month:

  • Betting volume (“Turnover”) was $2.2M CAD, an increase of 188% as compared to October 2019.
  • Gross Win was $405K CAD, an increase of 363% as compared to October 2019.

“Despite the global pandemic, McBookie had a record-breaking month of growth in October and demonstrated how seasoned operators can not only pivot their business during challenging times but still produce results that propel their business to new heights,” said Scott Burton, CEO of FansUnite Entertainment. “With sports now starting to come back and new products in their casino offering, we have full faith that McBookie will establish themselves as the preeminent online betting platform in Scotland and expand their footprint throughout the highly sought after UK gambling industry.”

“We are very encouraged with the continued growth of the McBookie platform and continue to add new features to provide our customers with innovative solutions that will create a unique experience for them,” said Paul Petrie, founder and Director of McBookie. “With Serbia playing against Scotland in the European Championship Soccer Qualifiers, the US Masters beginning in two weeks and the Scottish Cup Final coming up in the next few months, sports are very much back in business and should see an increase in betting volume on our platform.”
