Betspert l��ve 6 millions de dollars de fonds d'investissement

Sports betting startup Betsperts has secured a $6 million investment following a Series A funding round led by HBSE Ventures and Verance Capital.

Since its inception in 2019, Betsperts has continued to grow to become a major player in the burgeoning sports betting scene. Originally, the app was to provide punters with a way to connect with experts to get an opinion before placing bets. Since then, the startup has taken an interest in the fantasy football industry, going so far as to acquire analyst Matthew Berry’s fantasy sports app -Fantasy Life -as well as 4for4.com, a content, data and ranking tool for fantasy football.

The Series A funding will help Chicago-based Betsperts become the central hub of the sports gaming world for content, social media, user advice and analytics. CEO Robin Reed commented:

“This capital gives us the opportunity to invest heavily in growing the user base, with investments in marketing technology, more content… We will be able to continue to afford to look at strategic acquisition opportunities.”

Betsperts has one of the largest sports betting audiences in the country. With betting legalized in several more states, it’s well on its way to continuing! In addition, the group is expected to reach a major milestone once the 2021 NFL season begins: one million downloads. Rooney believes the opportunity for the company is “massive.”

“We continue to build our vision: to be the largest social platform for sports betting and fantasy sports,” he said.

“Sports bettors and fantasy players are not short of resources, but we believe there is a strong need for a solution that provides direct access to the best content, whether it’s user-generated or from recognized experts. Betsperts will leverage this content to attract consumers to its complementary platforms and take advantage of the explosive growth the industry is experiencing. ?

Andy Roos, Partner at HBSE Ventures, said he was “delighted to support Betsperts in their next phase of growth. The company aims to become the social network of choice for sports betting and fantasy sports.”
