The Pools joins forces with ActiveWin to boost digital growth

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Iconic U.K. betting brand The Pools has partnered with marketing agency ActiveWin, as it continues to accelerate its digital transformation.

The century-old brand, best known as the original home of football pools, has undergone a dramatic refresh over recent months, including new digital products and a modernized brand identity aimed at engaging a new generation of players.

ActiveWin will support The Pools with affiliate marketing. The collaboration will strengthen The Pools’ online presence, as well as expand its customer base and build on its already strong reputation.

Part of The Pools’ recent major growth drive strategy saw the launch of its upgraded online presence earlier this year, with the brand migrating onto Gaming Innovation Group’s state-of-the-art SportX sportsbook and CoreX iGaming platform to ensure a best-in class product offering for customers.

Gemma Strath, Head of Marketing at The Pools, said: “For more than 100 years, The Pools has been the place for great games that are easy, fun and affordable to play. Partnering with ActiveWin allows us to reach new audiences while maintaining the trust, value and enjoyment that have defined The Pools for generations.”

ActiveWin Managing Director, Joshua Gamble, said: “We’re proud to be working with one of the UK’s most historic betting brands. The Pools has an unrivaled heritage, and our goal is to help translate that history into modern-day digital success. With our expertise across all areas of performance marketing, we’re confident we can deliver strong growth to help build upon The Pool’s recent digital transformation.”
