The Romanian Bookmaker Awards 2022 will be based on 12 months of data for the market. This ensures that the awards are not a snapshot of performance but a true indication of it over time. Much of our data is manually collected and all of our testing is done by real people in real time, so we have the same experience as a sports bettor in that market.
If you are interested in working with us on the awards please get in touch with Shona who will be happy to have a chat about how we could best work together. We don’t believe in one size fits all and want to work with brands that share our values.
We want to hear from the bettors. This is the award every bookmaker wants to win. This is the community’s opportunity to vote for the bookmaker they think is the very best in the Romanian market. Voting for this award will be hosted on our Romanian and on social media in Romania. We encourage you to engage with your bettors and ask them to vote for you.
