Enteractive Strengthens Growth in North America with Bettor Capital Investment
Company Adds Bettor Capital as a Strategic Investor to Expand Enteractive’s Industry Leading Reactivation Services in the High Growth North American Market
Enteractive, the leader in player conversion and reactivation services to online sportsbook and casino operators, has welcomed Bettor Capital, the investment firm focused on backing best-in-class technology suppliers to the real-money gambling industry, as an investment partner, boosting opportunities for continued rapid growth within the U.S. market.
With Bettor Capital’s established expertise in supporting growth in the global online gambling sector, Enteractive looks forward to accelerating business development efforts in key growth markets such as the U.S. and Canada. The partnership is described by the Company as a limited/non-controlling investment that supports Enteractive’s existing global strategy.
“We’re thrilled to bring Bettor Capital on board as a strategic investor as we continue to expand within the North American market”, said Enteractive’s CEO Mikael Hansson. “We have built a strong relationship with the Bettor Capital team and believe that they will bring significant value alongside our existing investors”.
“We are excited to partner with Mikael and the Enteractive team to expand their global business. As online gambling markets, such as the U.S., mature, operators are increasingly focused on player retention and reactivation alongside new customer acquisition. Enteractive’s proprietary software powers real one-to-one conversations with players that delivers demonstrable and meaningful ROI for operators as they re-engage customers that may be considered to have churned; with a responsible gambling approach baked into this model, this is a clear win-win for the industry. As a result, Enteractive has established a global blue chip customer base and market leadership position that has the Company primed for continued growth, especially in large and high growth markets such as North America.” said Dave VanEgmond, Managing Partner at Bettor Capital.
Since its foundation in 2008, Enteractive has established itself as the global leader in online sportsbook and casino player conversion and reactivation. The Company’s proprietary technology platform, the (Re)Activation Cloud, allows Enteractive’s agents to engage with online sportsbook and casino players on a one-to-one basis, driving player retention and reactivation at scale for its operator customers. The Company has dozens of operator clients globally and has established a strong presence in the North American market since opening its first U.S. office in 2022, working with some of the dominating players including Rush Street Interactive, Penn Entertainment, Playstar and Resorts Digital Gaming.
Woodbine Entertainment has announced a partnership with 1/ST that will see the bet365 Dance Smartly Stakes (G2) become a qualifying race for the Pegasus World Cup Filly & Mare Turf Invitational Stakes (G2).

“We’re pleased to partner with the team at 1/ST Racing to add this unique bonus to the Dance Smartly,” said Tim Lawson, Vice-President of Thoroughbred Racing for Woodbine. “Pegasus World Cup Day has become an outstanding showcase of our sport and it’s exciting that the opportunity to be part of it will be connected to a prominent race on one of our biggest days of the season.”
The 2026 Pegasus World Cup will celebrate the 10-year anniversary of racing’s leading luxury, lifestyle and sporting event. The Pegasus World Cup debuted in 2017 as part of 1/ST’s mission to excite, energize and modernize the sport of racing for a new generation of fans and to provide lucrative opportunities for Thoroughbred owners and trainers. The event annually attracts the sport’s biggest names and is viewed globally.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Woodbine in linking the Dance Smartly to Pegasus World Cup Day,” said Aidan Butler, President of 1/ST. “This collaboration strengthens the global profile of both events, while providing horsemen and fans with a world-class pathway from Toronto to South Florida.”
The 2026 Pegasus World Cup will be held in January.
