Esports betting report 2020 RTSmunity | Page 12

Mateusz Juroszek

CEO of STS
STS is putting a strong emphasis on esports . How do you see the future of esports and betting ? We have been consistently developing and improving our esports product for many years , and we want to keep doing it . Esports popularity grows every year , and I believe it will be one of our top sports in the near future .
What is the difference between “ traditional customer ” and esports fans ? Esports fans are relatively younger ( only 17 % have more than 26 years ) but also keen to bet on traditional sports ( almost 70 % bet football ). Traditional customers are focused only on the most popular sports like football , basketball or tennis . Usually , it is hard for them to understand what esports is and how it works .
Your cooperation with RTSmunity started this year . Where do you see biggest benefits ? The biggest benefit of this cooperation was improving the number of in-play esports events . We have immediately tripled the number of offered events which gave us a significant advantage in the Polish market .
STS has a 50 % market share in Poland . What is your next ambition ? Any new markets you are looking at ? The Polish operation is our core business , so we will continue to focus on improving it . Since February 2019 , we have also been operating in the UK and international markets with the STS brand , and we are constantly looking for new markets and areas to improve .
