Hi everyone,

I thought it would be interesting to start an AMA for anyone curious about the online casino industry.

For the past several years, I've been working closely in the casino space, primarily focusing on email and SMS marketing, helping drive qualified traffic to casino operators through a variety of customer acquisition channels and data partners. I've also had hands on experience working alongside casino operations, particularly within grey-market environments, so I've seen both the marketing and operational sides of the business.

If you've ever been curious about topics like:

• Player acquisition strategies
• Email and SMS campaign management
• Traffic generation
• Affiliate marketing
• Customer retention
• Compliance challenges
• Casino operations
• Industry trends and day-to-day workflows

...feel free to ask.

I'm happy to share what I've learned from my experience, answer questions where I can, and have open discussions with others working in or interested in the industry.

Looking forward to your questions and hearing different perspectives!

I'm curious about traffic quality. Which acquisition channels usually bring the highest-value players?

Great initiative. Do you work mostly with affiliates, direct media buying, or a combination of different traffic sources?
