Esports Betting is a betting format for esports events, including matches, maps, rounds, tournaments and special markets for popular esports disciplines. This format has become a separate area in the betting product due to the high involvement of the digital audience, a regular calendar of events and a strong connection with online platforms.
For the operator, esports betting is important as a tool to attract a young audience, expand the sportsbook showcase and increase product diversity. For the esports user, betting offers a familiar digital environment, quick access to events, a variety of markets and the ability to place bets both before the start of the match and in live mode.
