Miguel shares insights into how Bets.io is redefining the gaming experience with cryptocurrency, building trust with players, and staying ahead in a rapidly evolving market.
Could you briefly introduce Bets.io and your role in the company?
Bets.io is an online casino designed for players who prefer using digital currencies like Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies for gaming. As a Senior Affiliate Manager, I focus on building partnerships to help our brand reach new audiences and enhance the overall player experience.
What was the initial vision behind launching Bets.io, and how has that vision evolved?
The initial vision was to create a secure crypto gaming experience that highlights the advantages of digital currencies. Over time, we've expanded our offerings, adding more games, simplifying the verification process, and supporting multiple cryptocurrencies to cater to players’ diverse preferences.
Crypto casinos have been gaining popularity recently. What made you decide to focus on crypto as a primary form of payment at Bets.io?
Crypto allows for quick and borderless transactions, which are essential for a global gaming platform. Our players value privacy, security, and speed, and crypto perfectly meets these needs. That’s why we chose to make it our main payment method.
How does your "get crypto in seconds" feature work, and what advantages does it bring to your players?
This feature, called Crypto On-Ramp, enables instant crypto transactions through seamless wallet integrations. It allows players to buy crypto and start playing almost immediately. It’s faster than traditional banking and provides immediate access to the casino.
What do you see as the biggest challenges and opportunities in offering cryptocurrency as a payment method in online gaming?
The main challenge is educating players on how to use and manage crypto. However, the opportunity to offer faster, more secure transactions without geographic restrictions far outweighs the challenges.
Bets.io is known for its extensive game selection. How do you ensure your platform offers games that appeal to a wide variety of players?
We continually add games from top providers like Pragmatic Play, Zillion, and Hacksaw. Our selection includes classic slots, live dealer games with providers like Winfinity, and unique crypto-friendly games. Our goal is to offer variety while ensuring quality and fair gameplay, appealing to players with different tastes and experience levels.
Recently, Bets.io partnered with Mr. Gamble. How has this partnership benefited your brand, and what feedback have you received from players as a result?
Partnering with Mr. Gamble has increased our visibility and helped us reach players specifically interested in crypto casinos. We’ve received positive feedback from players who discovered us through Mr. Gamble, especially regarding our game variety and crypto-friendly approach.
What value do you think affiliates like Mr. Gamble bring to the iGaming industry, particularly in the crypto casino space?
Affiliates like Mr. Gamble play a key role in educating players about crypto casinos and connecting them with trustworthy platforms. They help bridge the gap between players and operators, adding value by building trust and simplifying the process of choosing a reliable online crypto casino.
What trends are you seeing in the crypto casino market right now, and how is Bets.io adapting to them?
We’re seeing increased demand for live games, and players are also expecting instant transactions. At Bets.io, we focus on fast payouts, expanding our game selection, and constantly enhancing security to align with these trends.
Do you think cryptocurrency adoption in online casinos will continue to grow, or are there potential hurdles that need to be overcome?
I believe adoption will continue to grow as more people become familiar with crypto. That said, barriers like player education and regulatory challenges remain. We see these as opportunities to build trust and help players understand the security and benefits of crypto gaming.
What steps do you take to maintain transparency and build trust with your players, particularly in the context of cryptocurrency?
Transparency is essential in building trust, especially with crypto. We offer fair games and ensure our terms and conditions are clear and accessible. Additionally, our customer support team is always available to assist with any questions. By keeping our processes transparent, we aim to give players confidence in choosing Bets.io.
What are some upcoming projects or features at Bets.io that players should be excited about?
We have some exciting developments on the horizon! While I can’t reveal too much, I can say we’re working on expanding our game selection, adding new interactive features, and creating even better player rewards. We’re also exploring new cryptocurrencies and payment methods for added flexibility. There’s a lot to look forward to!
