A foreign online gaming company, Gambling.com Group Ltd., based in Saint Helier, Jersey, has acquired the Las Vegas-based website and ticket sales platform Spotlight.Vegas. This acquisition is part of the company’s strategy to strengthen its presence in Nevada. Spotlight.Vegas is known for selling tickets and promoting events, shows, and experiences in Las Vegas.
While specific financial details of the acquisition were not disclosed, the deal aligns with Gambling.com Group’s broader strategy to enhance relationships with website users and expand its offerings. The company, which also owns several other platforms such as RotoWire and Freebets.com, operates online casinos in various regions including North America and Europe. However, due to Nevada’s restrictions on online gambling, the acquisition focuses on leveraging Spotlight.Vegas to market discounted show tickets and hotel rooms in the area.
Charles Gillespie, CEO and co-founder of Gambling.com Group, highlighted that the acquisition aims to boost the company’s cash flow. He stressed the importance of building deeper connections with both end users and operator partners, noting that the addition of Spotlight.Vegas complements their existing portfolio and supports their objective of achieving $100 million in adjusted cash flow.
