Betonline/Bovada/MyBookie - Latin America - have they got the flex?

I mean with 99% of their traffic from the US, do Latin american gamblers even know much about these brands? I think 22bet got some market. Not sure, if the Big Three offshore books get the attention.

As for Mybook/Xbet, they are unlikely to exist outside the US. They have few country restrictions, decimal odds, but for a player outside the US it is a junk product for many reasons. It may generate a lot of registrations, but zero FTD.

Bovada/Bodog had huge plans with Latam in 2016 approx. They established a base in Uruguay wanted to do big campaigns, probably they did, but it was a failure. I had one brazilian whale there. In the north (of latam) there was BetCris since ages for example. MB tried something maybe 3-4 years ago in latam and failed too. I forgot the brand.

Bet365 was big here. I saw and on tv and I never had tv in my life and I am asocial person. So the rare occasions, when I was forced to go to hotels or pubs and I saw the bet365 ads mean, that they invested a lot.

1xbet apart of 22bet are doing something here.

People are americans here, but culturally the Euro bookies are closer to latam. Market is generally weak, banking is generally mierda here (which is both disaster and opportunity: disaster because it is hard to scale, because each country needs its own banking solution; opportunity it is because latam is used to grey market and unofficial money flows are tolerated).

So in other words, other than 22bet, there isn't much betting sites are doing there.

22bet is not just 22bet. It is playamo, tonybet, hellpartners, vave. Those 5 affiliates at least. They convert somewhat for me, but it is sports. They have divided the latam market for themselves as well. I am too lazy to look at notes atm, but for example in Chile, they promote just tonybet etc.

1xbet works as well, but i do not promote them on top, because i do not trust them as much as 22 and with latam market then umbers are so low that i am not able to say how good or bad they are. Bet365 must know someone who is promoting them. For sure there are others and especially in casino niche. There are lot of bookies and affiliate programs aimed at specific markets, especially brazil only. My impression is that they are coming and going.
