Rising iGaming brand Titanplay is entering the mobile market powered by Delasport’s turnkey solution. The solution includes the possibility of quickly launching iOS and Android apps, in this case – for the Ontario player base.

Mobile users will get the full sportsbook and casino experience of Delasport’s product, and even more: features like the proprietary Booster Panel for Casino games and ‘Combo of the Day’ for sports are also available for them.

Titanplay’s app is already available for iOS, and it will soon arrive on Google’s Play Store for Android devices.

The Ontario-focused brand is taking full advantage of what Delasport has to offer, thus providing the best player betting experience possible. Their platform has been live for a few months now and it has been thriving the whole time.

Aside from the mobile-only cutting-edge features, gamblers enjoy Player Engagement missions and tournaments, unmatched personalization capabilities with My Sportsbook, My Casino, My Combo, and My Event Builder, and much more.

“Having a mobile-first approach when developing products is a must in today’s iGaming industry”, Delasport’s CEO Oren Cohen Shwartz comments. “Data shows that mobile users are now more than 70% of the whole player base, so we make sure to be prepared to bring our partners to this thriving market at any point. This is the case with Titanplay who’ve had an incredibly successful launch in Ontario last year and are now ready to win even more players.”

In addition to a comprehensive sportsbook and casino experience, the Delasport mobile app includes innovative customization, and gamification features to boost user engagement and differentiate the company from its competitors. Cross-product Tournaments, Missions, Badges, Spin & Win, and other gamification elements are also available to Titanplay’s players.

As soon as the app is downloaded and installed on a device, it provides convenient and quick access. Titanplay’s team may communicate with their players in real-time using the built-in push notifications feature on their devices. The software also addresses current security demands by providing biometric login and facial recognition on supported devices.
