Leading iGaming supplier BETBY has commenced the 2026 fiscal year with significant upward momentum, reporting substantial growth across its core sportsbook operations and its proprietary esports vertical, Betby.Games.
The first quarter results highlight a notable year-on-year increase in both revenue and player engagement, with March setting new internal records for the company.
Sportsbook and Esports Performance
BETBY’s primary sportsbook business recorded a massive 61% year-on-year increase in Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) during Q1. This financial growth was mirrored by a 38% rise in active player numbers, suggesting deep market penetration across its global operator network. The record-breaking performance in March coincided with the high-stakes closing stages of domestic European football leagues and the UEFA Champions League.
The company’s proprietary esports division also showed impressive resilience. Betby.Games reported a 42% year-on-year increase in GGR, supported by a 32% growth in active players. BETBY attributes this success to its focus on AI-based tools, proprietary trading models, and a diversified content strategy that caters to the evolving preferences of modern bettors.
CEO Perspective on Stability
Leonid Pertsovskiy, CEO of BETBY, emphasized that the growth is a result of consistent product refinement:
“It’s been a really solid start to the year for us. We’re seeing strong growth across both sportsbook and esports, and that comes down to the work we’ve put into the product and the trust our partners place in us. What’s particularly encouraging is that this growth is consistent across key metrics, which shows the strength and stability of what we’re building. We’ll keep pushing in the same direction, focusing on delivering long-term value for our partners.”
