Scout Gaming has entered into a license agreement with one of the market-leading operators in the CIS region, Parimatch, to launch Scout Gaming’s market-leading Daily Fantasy Sports product.

“We are constantly improving our product offering and are very happy to be able to offer the market leading Fantasy product to our clients in a near future. Scout Gaming’s software will extend our already very successful sports offering and we are looking forward to a long-term successful co-operation”, comments Parimatch CEO, Sergey Portnov.

While the deal will have a limited impact on Scout Gaming’s 2020 revenues, the partnership has the potential to have a moderate to high effect on revenues in 2021 and beyond.
