Performance marketing and analytics platform provider now live in four US states after receiving approval from the Michigan Gaming Control Board

Intelitics, the leading performance marketing and analytics platform provider, has been granted a vendor permit by the Michigan Gaming Control Board allowing it to work with licensed online sportsbook and casino operators in the state.
Intelitics already holds licenses in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Colorado with Michigan the fourth and with more to follow in the coming months as part of plans to offer its products and services in all regulated US states.
Intelitics provides online sportsbook and casino operators with a single platform that allows them to track, analyze and grow all acquisition partnerships and campaigns across web and mobile through access to real-time data which in turn allows them to unlock hidden revenue and boost ROI.
Intelitics’ real-time data hub keeps media buyers, analysts and executives on the same page about spend and results. Operators can use one set of metrics to “slice and dice” media performance to discover what activity is delivering the best results.
Powerful, streamlined reports provide full visibility into cross-channel interaction and the customer journey. A holistic view of costs v player value means operators can easily determine the most valuable media sources which improves revenue allocation modelling and informs media investment.
CasinoAffiliatePrograms, the premier standalone iGaming specific Ad Network, which is powered and run by the Intelitics team, has delivered more than $70m in net game revenue through 150,000+ new depositing customers.
Armed with its Michigan license, Intelitics is now looking to work with licensed online sportsbook and casino operators in the state in order to help them unlock the greatest value from their marketing activity.
Allan Stone, CEO at Intelitics, said: “We are thrilled to have been awarded a license by the Michigan Gaming Control Board and to be able to partner with licensed sports betting and casino operators in the state for the first time.
“There are tremendous opportunities for operators launching into regulated states such as Michigan, but already we are seeing customer acquisition costs spiralling. To succeed in the long term, operators must find a more cost-effective way to acquire players.
“Our platform provides the real-time data, insight and reporting that operators need to do just that across all the channels they use to market to players. Operators in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Colorado have already taken advantage of this, and now those in Michigan can too.”
