Utilizing VAIX’s Player Value AI, theScore Bet Achieved 66% Improvement in Engaging Users at Risk of Churning

 

 

THE CHALLENGE

How to Increase Retention, Improve Customer Lifetime Value and Drive Efficiencies from CRM Budget.

THE RESULT

By leveraging VAIX’s Player Value AI, theScore Bet mobile sportsbook was  able to identify users at risk of churning. Identifying this cohort enabled the timely targeting of specific campaigns to retain at-risk users while also reactivating users who had already churned.

The Company

theScore empowers millions of sports fans through its digital media and sports betting products. Its media app, ‘theScore’, is one of the most popular in North America, delivering fans highly personalized live scores, news, stats, and betting information from their favourite teams, leagues, and players.

The company’s sports betting app ‘theScore Bet’ delivers an immersive and holistic mobile sports betting experience and is currently available to place wagers in New Jersey, Colorado, Indiana and Iowa. Publicly traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange and the Nasdaq Global Select Market, theScore also creates and distributes innovative digital content through its web, social and esports platforms.

The Challenge

Accurate churn prediction and prevention is an increasingly vital consideration within the gaming sector, with operators focused on growing their player base through new player acquisition while simultaneously keeping existing players engaged.

With heavy competition, a decline in brand loyalty, and increased player attrition and churn rates increasingly impacting revenue stability, identifying and preventing churn sits front-and-centre on every igaming marketing team’s radar.

“When our betting business first launched, the lack of first-party data made it challenging to implement predictive processes to improve user retention. By partnering with VAIX, we’re able to leverage third-party data and transfer learning to jump-started these initiatives at theScore Bet.”

The VAIX Solution

VAIX uses  to assign a churn score, identifying the probability of a player not being active in the next 7, 14 & 30 days. This is   for all players who have been active in the last 30 days, with each player being scored a percentage chance of churning. This drives informed decision-making, determining the ideal bonus amount for each specific player and the optimum time to credit them, as well as the ability to run multiple A/B tests to refine results.

The Outcome

Armed with this data, theScore was able to test, refine and optimize their campaigns, targeting users with a 50% or higher predicted churn score. In just 14 days, this led to a 66% improvement in re-engaging at-risk users, allowing resources to be focused to further drive efficiency from the CRM budget.

OtherLevels and Vaix bring machine learning powered real time messaging to casinos and sportsbooks

Mar 2021 – OtherLevels and Vaix have signed an agreement to provide operators with real-time personalisation and churn prevention, to enhance player retention and lifetime value for operators.

Vaix is the leading & first to market AI solution for the I-Gaming industry and has collected over 25 billion transactions from over 15 million players across multiple different operators. Working with such large datasets allows VAIX to build solutions that delivers accurate predictions and relevant content to customers.

OtherLevels is a leading Customer Engagement Platform in I-Gaming and a market leader for real time messaging, enabling operators to trigger highly personalised, automated messages as events unfold, e.g. during a live sporting fixture or progressive jackpot game. OtherLevels processes 50+ billion data points a year, sending billions of targeted messages on behalf of its clients.

Combined, Vaix and OtherLevels solve the dual challenge of identifying and predicting when a customer is likely to churn with real-time decisioning and hyper personalised messaging. Engaging a player who has a high likelihood of churn with a bet/game recommendation in real-time, both in or out of session, can reduce the risk of churn and increase their life time value.

Andreas Hartmann, Co-founder and CEO at Vaix, said: “Engaging customers based on their predicted future value and serving them what they like most, was always the vision I and my Vaix colleagues had back when running operations & product at big iGaming operators. Deep Learning is getting the industry closer to this idea then anything before, and the reason why we started Vaix. The magic of our partnership with OtherLevels, is being able to use these insights, and reach out to players, in real-time.”

Brendan O’Kane, OtherLevels CEO added: “This is an important agreement for OtherLevels and our clients. The ability to extend OtherLevels existing segmentation and personalisation with machine learning powered insights and predictions, provides operators with an automated solution directly addressing churn risk, and next best game predictions. The result is enhanced player engagement and protection, stronger retention and higher player LTV.”
