In addition to the company’s unprecedented customer acquisition success, leading operators and suppliers in the iGaming industry rely on Betting Hero to provide actionable intelligence and insights through its purpose built, and industry specific consumer insights and testing division; Betting Hero Research. âAs a leading operator in the hyper-competitive North American digital markets, PENN Entertainment relies on the Betting Hero Research division as a trusted partner, delivering timely, relevant, and actionable information that accelerates our digital transformation. Their insights are invaluable,â said William Zeralsky, Vice President Marketing Strategy & Performance – PENN Entertainment

Betting Hero bridges that gap by delivering exceptional real-world UX insights. We experienced that firsthand ourselves as customers of their Research division, and now weâre excited to support Betting Hero in using that expertise to drive even greater growth,” said Anna Sainsbury, CEO of GeoComply.
