Sportsbook Operator — SEO Acquisition Framework

Sportsbook Western Europe (5 GEOs) 6 months to first material results

Context

A licensed European sportsbook was heavily dependent on paid media and affiliate spend for player acquisition. The operator had minimal organic search visibility in their target GEOs despite operating for several years.

Approach

Propel Play deployed a full SEO acquisition framework beginning with technical remediation, followed by topical authority cluster construction targeting high-commercial-intent sports betting queries. GEO-specific content and structured data were deployed across all 5 target markets with compliance-reviewed copy.

Outcomes

+280%

Organic Traffic Growth

vs pre-engagement baseline

38%

Key Insight: Establishing organic search as a primary acquisition channel took longer than paid channels but delivered compounding returns. The most significant outcome was the reduction in blended CPA as organic volume grew.
Funnel Optimisation

Forex Broker — Lead Funnel Rebuild

Forex & CFD MENA, APAC 90-day engagement

Context

A regulated forex broker was generating significant paid media lead volume but experiencing poor sales-team conversion rates. Lead quality was inconsistent and the qualification process was creating friction for the sales pipeline.

Approach

Propel Play audited the full lead journey and rebuilt the acquisition funnel from landing page through to CRM handoff. New qualification logic was introduced at the landing page level — asking qualifying questions that improved lead quality without significantly reducing volume. Nurture sequences were implemented for longer-consideration prospects.

Outcomes

+65%

Sales Cycle Reduction

Key Insight: The shift from volume-first to qualification-first acquisition required accepting lower raw lead counts initially. The downstream sales conversion improvements meant the broker's effective CPA reduced substantially within 60 days.
Affiliate Programme

Casino Operator — Affiliate Programme Build

Online Casino Nordic, UK, Canada 90 days from brief to launch

Context

A licensed casino operator was acquiring players exclusively through direct channels (paid media). They had no affiliate programme and were being significantly outcompeted in SEO rankings by affiliate sites. The operator needed to establish an affiliate ecosystem from scratch.

Approach

Propel Play architected a complete affiliate programme — platform selection, commission structure design, tracking implementation, and a targeted outreach campaign to the top 200 casino affiliates in the operator's target GEOs. Programme materials, dashboards, and reporting templates were created as part of the build.

Key Insight: Building an affiliate programme from scratch is a 6-12 month compounding exercise. The most impactful early decision was commission structure — ensuring it was competitive enough to attract quality partners without eroding operator margin.
CRM & Retention

Online Casino — Retention & LTV Programme

Online Casino Germany, Austria, Switzerland 60 days implementation, ongoing

Context

An established casino had strong acquisition performance but was experiencing high 30-day churn and low average player LTV relative to acquisition costs. The CRM system was operational but running primarily manual campaigns without lifecycle automation.

Approach

Propel Play audited the existing CRM data and implemented automated lifecycle triggers — welcome journeys, first-deposit sequences, activity-based re-engagement, and churn prediction logic. A VIP identification and escalation programme was designed to increase revenue concentration among high-value players.

Outcomes

Key Insight: Retention improvements compound — each percentage point gained in 30-day retention reduces the volume of new players needed to maintain revenue targets, materially improving the economics of acquisition spend.
Prop Trading

Prop Trading Firm — Challenge Funnel Optimisation

Prop Trading Global (English-language) 45-day optimisation sprint

Context

A growing prop trading firm had solid traffic from YouTube and social influencer campaigns but a challenge purchase funnel with high abandonment rates. Conversion from landing page visit to challenge purchase was significantly below industry benchmarks.

Approach

Propel Play conducted a full CRO audit on the challenge funnel — landing pages, pricing presentation, comparison tables, social proof positioning, and checkout flow. A prioritised testing roadmap was implemented with 3 concurrent test tracks across the top abandonment points.

Outcomes

+52%

Landing-to-Purchase Rate

vs pre-engagement baseline

+18%

Checkout Abandonment

final step improvement

Key Insight: The largest conversion improvement came from mobile experience — a funnel built primarily for desktop was losing more than half of mobile visitors at the checkout step. Mobile-first redesign delivered the highest ROI of any single intervention.
Media Buying

Crypto Exchange — Community & Paid Acquisition Mix

Crypto Exchange APAC, MENA 3-month programme

Context

A tier-2 crypto exchange was attempting to scale user acquisition in APAC and MENA markets but facing significant paid media restrictions on major platforms. The majority of their marketing budget was being spent on channels with limited reach or poor conversion rates.

Approach

Propel Play built a hybrid acquisition model combining Telegram community growth, KOL (key opinion leader) campaign management, and permitted native ad placements — replacing restricted paid social with community-driven and influencer acquisition supplemented by compliant paid channels.

Outcomes

+340%

Key Insight: For crypto and Web3 brands, community-first acquisition outperforms paid media on trust conversion. Users acquired through Telegram and KOL recommendations showed significantly higher KYC completion and first-deposit rates than equivalent paid media cohorts.
