“Today’s news is more than just the next phase in XB Systems evolution. It’s a validation for the entire potential that esports is showing over the last several years. The industry is enjoying phenomenal growth and our company’s listing will allow us to raise the profile of the business on a global scale.”
XB Systems AG has been a leader in the esports betting space since 2017 with its brands BUFF.bet for esports wagering and BUFFHUB for esports content. The team is derived from industry veterans in the esports and gaming sectors. Moreover, BUFF.bet is at the forefront of esports wagering also due to its custom-built platform developed by market-leading data and software iGaming provider UltraPlay.
This past year, XB Systems saw a surge in usage and activity in the esports segment of its business. The BUFF.bet operational business has recorded a tremendous increase in terms of player acquisition, retention, and increased activity on the esports betting markets. The website is known for its unrivaled esports options, which were enlarged by adding to the portfolio the latest esports sensation Valorant last year.
Since then, BUFF.bet has managed to provide the widest selection of live betting markets on Valorant available in the industry.
The company expects that Valorant will be placed at the top of the best performing esports titles in the following months.
Through its target markets CIS, Europe, and Asia, BUFF.bet is expected to consolidate esports as a key wagering vertical and expand to new territories in the next following months. Moreover, the recently signed partnership with the market-leading affiliate network Catena Media, through the premium position on Ask Gamblers, increased BUFF.bet’s traffic in certain markets by over 27%.
Over the last two years, BUFF.bet has been constantly upgraded in terms of user experience and product offering, specifically targeting the esports audience.
Aiming to become the first choice of esports bettors worldwide, BUFF.bet has made several acquisitions, including Fusion.bet, X-bet.co as well as eSporbet.
Through its esports dedicated brands BUFF.bet and BUFFHUB, XB Systems AG will become one of the few esports companies to be listed on the international stock exchange.
