Who could imagine that a product launched in a local environment a few years ago could compete for an award at the SBC Awards 2024 with other world-renowned iGaming brands?
Believe it or not, the Nostrabet Tipsters League, presented by its owner Websa Ltd, is among the shortlisted nominees for the best Affiliate Product Innovation, which is just one of the 39 awarding categories of the annual SBC event.
The Story Behind Nostrabet’s Tipsters League
Nostrabet is an affiliate brand that has been rising in popularity among football enthusiasts worldwide. Seeking a chance to stand out among its competitors, the brand introduced its one-of-a-kind Tipsters League with a special edition dedicated to EURO 2020.
Even though the game’s special edition was short in time and available only for the Bulgarian market, it managed to attract 143 tipsters, which made 2546 football predictions in total.
Due to the Tipsters League’s popularity and positive impact on the brand, three more seasons were held. During this time, the brand registered 2285 players.
Most recently, Nostrabet presented its second special edition of the game for EURO 2024. This was a remarkable moment for the project team because it is the first international launch of the Tipsters League. Without surprise, the statistics are even more impressive, reaching a total of 355 players and a total of 4,541 forecasts for a short period of time.
How Does the Tipsters Leage from Nostrabet Work?
Nostrabet’s Tipsters League is an entirely free game with football predictions. With every start of a new month during the season, registered players receive a given amount of Nostracoins to their balance. They are used to make football predictions.
Based on the success rates of the tips, players win or lose coins, leading to a deserved spot on the leaderboard. At the end of the game’s season (or edition), users with the highest rank share a prize pool with real cash prizes. Based on the information from Nostrabet, they have given away over 50 000 Nostracoins, which converts into €25 000 for their top tipsters.
