FSI Joins the Fantasy Sports & Gaming Association
FSI are excited to announce that after our international activity in Europe and South Africa, we are ready to expand our operations in the United States as well!
We are delighted to join the Fantasy Sports and Gaming Association (FSGA), the only national organization representing the interests of fantasy sports and gaming companies in the United States and Canada, being the voice for more than 60 million fantasy sports players and for the companies that provide services, news, information and competition to support this growing industry.
The FSI Team has been developing innovative gaming offerings since 2012, and following its B2B operation since 2016, the company has been awarded twice by its European industry peers. After premiering a world-first gaming concept at ICE London Exhibition in 2019, FSI attracted prestigious international clients and World Lottery Association (WLA) members, such as Scientific Games, OPAP and Hollywoodbets..
Our company introduced a world-first fantasy sports betting concept, the Fixed-Odds-Fantasy Suite, which combines fantasy sports gaming with classic Sportsbook. Described also as a “Fantasy Sportsbook”, Fixed-Odds-Fantasy features a unique range of betting markets, from the original Team-based sportsbook (the “Sportsbook Manager”), to standard Over-Under options (“Performance Props”), and Head-to-Head betting (“Man2Man”).
This unique fantasy betting mix fits all operators, whether they seek to enrich their offerings portfolio, or enhance their cross-selling strategy. Additionally, FSI’s Fixed-Odds-Fantasy provides a key opportunity for local operators to successfully offer fantasy sports through a unique betting product, without competing directly against the DFS giants.
Furthermore, it is ideal for the U.S. audience since it is mature in fantasy sports and a sportsbook-like offering will be easily adopted.
FSGA’s members are sports and gaming enthusiasts, with companies that range from small startups to large media corporations. The Association’s mission is to provide their members with essential research and data, networking opportunities, and collective action to help them reach their potential. Our membership in the FSGA is a great opportunity for networking and growth, both within the community and in the promising U.S market.
We look forward to connecting with our peers, and sharing the exciting news about the next chapter of FSI’s story with everyone.
