AI isn't just helping iGaming marketers work faster  it's beginning to change how they work altogether.On today's episode of iGaming Daily, Fernando Noodt is joined by Rony Vexelman, VP of Marketing at Optimove, and Shai Frank, SVP of Product and GM of the Americas at Optimove, to explore how artificial intelligence and AI agents are transforming CRM and player engagement.Rony explains how marketers are increasingly moving from manually executing individual tasks to working alongside AI agents, while Shai explores a future where marketers define the outcomes they want and AI handles more of the execution.The conversation also examines how Optimove's MCP allows tools including ChatGPT, Claude and Microsoft Copilot to interact with the Optimove platform combining CRM information with data warehouses, project management tools and other parts of an operator's technology stack.From automatically building campaigns and audiences to checking marketing materials for compliance, the pair share examples of how operators are already using AI to automate workflows that previously required significant manual work.Shai also explains how AI could remove traditional bottlenecks around content creation and QA, allowing operators to create and test levels of personalisation that previously weren't practical.Finally, the conversation turns to Optigenie, Optimove's in-platform AI experience, and what an AI-first future could mean for the traditional software interface itself.iGaming Daily is brought to you by Optimove, the creator of Positionless Marketing and player engagement solutions for iGaming and sports betting operators.Subscribe to SBC Media for more insight, analysis and conversations from across the global gambling industry.#iGaming #ArtificialIntelligence #CRM #Marketing #Optimove

Casino affiliate marketing continues to grow, but with more brands, publishers, and competition entering the market, finding reliable partners has become increasingly challenging.In this episode of the Affiliate Marketing Podcast, Lee-Ann is joined by Oleksandr Kulyk, VP of Partnerships at Makeberry Affiliates, to discuss the publisher side of the casino affiliate ecosystem. Their conversation explores the challenges facing new affiliates and what separates sustainable traffic sources from short-term opportunities.Makeberry Affiliates works across several areas of digital acquisition, including media buying, SEO, ASO, influencer marketing, affiliate networks, and direct advertiser partnerships. This gives the team insight into both sides of the market: what advertisers expect from publishers and what publishers need from brands to build successful casino affiliate partnerships.Oleksandr explains why trust has become one of the industry's biggest challenges, how affiliates can assess potential partners, and why quality affiliate traffic matters more than simply chasing volume.The discussion also examines AI in affiliate marketing, including its effect on content creation and casino affiliate SEO. Oleksandr considers how publishers can adapt their strategies and where new opportunities may emerge as consumer behavior evolves. Key Talking Points: Casino Affiliate Growth Strategies and InsightsHow Makeberry evolved from media buying into a full-cycle acquisition partnerWhy trust has become a major challenge between affiliates and advertisersThe biggest challenges facing new publishers entering the casino marketWhy quality traffic matters more than volumeHow smaller affiliates can find the right brand partnershipsWhat makes a publisher attractive to advertisers and networksWhy affiliates should focus on niches instead of competing everywhereHow AI is changing SEO, content creation, and publisher strategiesWhy publishers need to think long term when building traffic assetsThe importance of due diligence when choosing affiliate partners1. Why Trust Matters in Casino Affiliate Marketing The affiliate industry has never had more opportunities, but rapid growth has also created new challenges.Oleksandr explains that one of the biggest issues in the market today is a lack of trust between affiliates and advertisers. With more brands launching and more publishers entering the space, both sides can struggle to identify reliable partners.From the advertiser perspective, some companies invest heavily in acquiring traffic without fully understanding how to manage those campaigns or generate a return. This can create problems when brands are unable to maintain payments or build long-term relationships with publishers.For affiliates, the challenge is choosing brands they can trust and knowing whether their traffic is being valued correctly.Oleksandr highlights that networks and experienced partners can help bridge this gap by connecting publishers with suitable brands and providing better market knowledge.2. Why Quality Affiliate Traffic Beats Volume One of the biggest lessons from the episode is that affiliate success is not always about sending the highest number of users.Oleksandr explains that Makeberry focuses on paying for quality rather than simply quantity because even a smaller number of valuable players can generate significant results.For smaller affiliates, this creates an opportunity.A publisher does not necessarily need thousands of users to become valuable. Understanding a specific audience, building expertise in a niche, and delivering high-quality traffic can create stronger partnerships.Oleksandr advises affiliates to avoid spreading themselves too thin and instead focus on finding where they can provide unique value.3. How to Build a Sustainable Casino Affiliate Business The affiliate industry often creates unrealistic expectations.Oleksandr warns that many people see stories of overnight success online, but building a successful publishing business usually requires testing, learning, and continuous improvement.His advice for new affiliates is simple: start.Find a niche, understand your audience, test ideas, and build expertise over time. Waiting for the perfect opportunity can mean missing the chance to learn while the market is still available.Long-term thinking is essential. Oleksandr shares examples where significant investment and testing were required before seeing meaningful results, highlighting that sustainable growth does not happen overnight.4. How AI Is Changing Casino Affiliate SEO and Publisher Growth AI has lowered the barrier for creating websites and content, allowing people to move faster than ever.However, Oleksandr explains that this also creates new challenges. With more websites being created, competition increases and publishers need to focus more on authenticity, expertise, and differentiation.Looking ahead, he believes publishers need to think beyond traditional search traffic and understand how AI-driven recommendations could influence user journeys.Makeberry is already exploring how websites can become visible within AI-driven search experiences, rather than relying only on traditional search engines. Listen to Find Out More About Casino AffiliatesHow MakeBerry supports both publishers and advertisersWhy trust has become one of the biggest challenges in affiliate marketingWhat smaller affiliates can do to attract better partnershipsWhy quality traffic matters more than volumeHow affiliates can identify valuable nichesWhy due diligence matters before choosing a brand partnerHow AI is changing SEO and publisher strategiesWhere new affiliate opportunities could emerge in the next 12–24 monthsTimestamps02:35 – How Makeberry became a full-cycle acquisition partner05:45 – Why trust has become a major issue in affiliate partnerships07:00 – How AI is changing the affiliate market and lowering barriers to entry09:50 – Why smaller affiliates often struggle to find the right partners11:38 – Why Makeberry focuses on quality traffic over quantity13:00 – How affiliates can find the right platforms and partnerships15:20 – Why finding a niche can help smaller publishers compete18:15 – The future of SEO, AI and new traffic opportunities25:00 – What affiliates need to understand before switching campaigns29:11 – Advice for affiliates starting todayListen to the Affiliate Marketing Podcast Building a successful affiliate business requires more than finding traffic and signing partnerships.In this episode, Oleksandr shares practical advice on choosing the right partners, focusing on quality audiences, building sustainable traffic sources, and adapting to the changes AI is bringing to the industry. Listen to the full episode to learn how affiliates and advertisers can create stronger partnerships and grow together in an increasingly competitive market.

With AI in paid media reshaping how campaigns are created, analysed, and optimised, advertisers have more opportunities than ever but also more questions around how to use these tools effectively.In this episode of the Affiliate Marketing Podcast, Lee-Ann Johnstone is joined by Andrei Blosh, Business Development Team Leader at PropellerAds, to discuss the evolving world of paid acquisition, AI-powered marketing, and what advertisers need to consider before investing their budgets.With 15 years of experience in the advertising space, PropellerAds works with performance marketers across multiple verticals, including iGaming, finance, mobile apps, utilities, and lead generation. Andrei shares his perspective on how advertisers can build an effective paid media strategy rather than treating campaigns as a simple “turn on and wait” process. The conversation explores how AI is helping advertisers analyse performance, optimise campaigns, and make faster decisions, while also discussing why human creativity and preparation remain essential. From spotting AI-generated creatives to understanding the importance of testing budgets, tracking, and localisation, Andrei shares practical advice for businesses looking to scale their acquisition strategies.AI in Paid Media: Key Talking PointsHow AI is changing paid media optimisation and campaign managementWhy AI-generated creatives still need human input and strategyThe importance of preparation before launching paid campaignsWhy paid media is not a quick-win channelHow advertisers should approach testing budgets and optimisationThe role of multi-format campaigns in acquisition strategiesWhy tier-three markets are becoming increasingly attractiveHow localisation impacts paid media performance across different regionsHow AI Is Changing Paid Media Strategy and OptimisationAI in paid media is becoming increasingly important, helping advertisers analyse data, identify patterns, and optimise campaigns faster.Andrei explains that AI has already changed how teams work by reducing the time needed for tasks that previously required hours of manual analysis. Advertisers can now use AI tools to understand what is working, what is not, and where campaigns should be adjusted.However, AI is not a replacement for marketing strategy.Andrei highlights that advertisers still need to understand their audience, prepare their landing pages, build effective creatives, define their user journey, and have the right tracking systems in place before investing in traffic.The biggest mistake businesses make is assuming AI can fix a weak foundation. Technology can support optimisation, but it cannot replace preparation.Why Paid Media Strategy Requires Testing, Patience, and PartnershipOne of the biggest misconceptions about paid media is expecting immediate returns.Andrei explains that advertisers often approach campaigns expecting to put in one dollar and immediately receive three dollars back. In reality, successful campaigns require testing, optimisation, and time to gather enough data.A strong paid media strategy involves testing different formats, analysing results, adjusting campaigns, and understanding what works for a specific audience.For advertisers, this means having realistic expectations and allocating enough budget to properly evaluate performance.Andrei also highlights that successful campaigns come from collaboration between advertisers and traffic partners. The best results happen when both sides work together towards a shared goal rather than treating traffic acquisition as a simple transaction.Paid Media Market Expansion: Why Localisation MattersAs competition increases in established markets, more advertisers are exploring opportunities in tier-three regions.Andrei explains that countries across Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia are becoming increasingly attractive because of growing digital adoption and expanding consumer markets.However, entering these markets requires a localised paid media strategy.Successful campaigns need to consider more than language. Advertisers must understand local preferences, payment methods, creative styles, device usage, and cultural differences.For example, Andrei highlights that payment methods such as Pix in Brazil and M-Pesa in Kenya can play an important role in adapting campaigns for local audiences.The opportunity is significant, but success depends on understanding the market rather than simply replicating campaigns from other regions.What You Will Learn About AI in Paid MediaHow AI is helping advertisers optimise campaigns fasterWhy AI-generated creatives can sometimes hurt performanceThe preparation checklist businesses need before buying trafficWhy paid media should be treated as a long-term strategyHow advertisers can test campaigns effectivelyWhy tier-three markets are attracting more attentionHow localisation impacts paid media successPodcast Timestamps: AI, Paid Media and Market Expansion 04:56 – How AI is helping advertisers analyse and optimise campaigns 06:35 – Why AI-generated creatives can be easy to spot 11:02 – Why AI does not replace marketing preparation 16:45 – Why paid media is about long-term partnerships, not quick results 19:05 – How paid traffic can influence brand visibility and SEO 25:10 – Understanding testing budgets and campaign optimisation 30:15 – Why tier-three markets are becoming growth opportunitiesListen to the Affiliate Marketing PodcastPaid media success is not just about buying traffic — it is about understanding your audience, testing strategically, and building campaigns that are designed to improve over time.In this episode, Andrei Blosh shares practical advice on how advertisers can approach AI, campaign optimisation, and market expansion with a smarter strategy.
