Retail and online sportsbook operator chooses leading performance marketing and analytics provider as exclusive monetization partner for the US market

Intelitics, the leading performance marketing, and analytics platform provider has been selected by BetRushmore to be their exclusive user acquisition partner in the growing US market.

Under the deal, Intelitics will take care of all BetRushmore’s marketing, user acquisition, and tracking activity. This includes a full creative build from branding to assets as well as managing the operator’s entire user acquisition spend across paid media, affiliates, and other channels.

This will then be monitored and tracked via Intelitics’ state-of-the-art platform and back office, which provides real-time insight into how all activity is performing. This allows for changes to activity and campaigns to be made instantly, maximizing the return on ad spend.

The deal bolsters Intelitics’ platform and marketing and user acquisition business with additional growth expected over the coming months with more deals in the pipeline and further investment into its market-leading technology and platform.

BetRushmore is a new operator and will make its market debut in Iowa with its online and mobile sports betting brand with other states to follow shortly after. The company is also set to launch a land-based sportsbook in South Dakota where it is based.

Allan Stone at Intelitics, said: “We are thrilled to have been chosen by BetRushmore to handle all of the operator’s marketing and user acquisition activity first in Iowa where it will make its online sports betting debut and then in the other states it enters.

“With player acquisition costs already high, it is important for operators to ensure they are getting the best return on ad spend and our proven approach and market-leading platform and analytics tools allow us to do this for our partners.

“BetRushmore has a great brand and big ambitions for the US market, and we look forward to working closely with the team to ensure their marketing and UA is on point.”

Gary King, President of BetRushmore, said: “On making our market debut in Iowa we want to hit the ground running and ensure our marketing and user acquisition strategies and activities are right from day one, and to do this we knew we needed to identify the right partner.
