English Premier League’s Arsenal FC announced today that online sports betting operator Tempobet has become its newest Regional Betting Partner. The partnership will result in Arsenal and its fan base benefiting from exclusive betting offering and related initiatives and supporting the online sportsbook’s expansion into Oceania.
Under the agreement between the two parties, Tempobet will be offered LED branding during all Premier League fixtures set to take place at Arsenal’s host venue – Emirates Stadium. In addition to this, the gambling operator will be allowed to use first-team players of its choice to promote its offering on its official website.
Tempobet gambling customers and fans of the popular football club will be provided with the chance to win club-related non-monetary prizes, including branded merchandise and match tickets.
Commenting on the partnership agreement, Arsenal Chief Commercial Officer said they are looking forward to working together with the gambling operator as their new commercial partner and to support it in engaging with fans and promoting its products.
Tempobet Managing Director Mark Clayton added that their collaboration with a club with such a “huge and engaged” international fan base will provide the operator with excellent opportunities to showcase its product offering.
The partnership between Tempobet and Arsenal is not an industry first. Quite the contrary, it has become a common practice for gambling operators to approach major football clubs in a bid to support a game that enjoys global popularity and to market their products to football fans who happen to be devoted sports bettors, as well.
This summer, Tempobet scored two other betting partnership agreements with Premier League clubs, with those being Manchester City and Middlesbrough. As an Official Betting Partner for both clubs, the iGaming operator is now entitled to use their crest on its official website and is allowed advertising presence at their host venues.
In a bid to further popularize its brand among international football fans, Tempobet has also recently signed former Real Madrid star Roberto Carlos as brand ambassador.
Apart from its sports betting offering, the operator offers online casino and lottery games, among a number of gambling options. Most recently, it extended its long-standing partnership with leading Live Casino supplier Evolution Gaming. Tempobet is set to go live with 12 Live Blackjack tables, with those being hosted at a branded studio, and Evolution Gaming’s brand new Immersive Lite Roulette.
