The report explores how iGaming brands are shifting away from classic advertising and relying more on creators and streamers to reach players in a credible, human way.
The report examines the fast-growing iGaming market, now valued at over $97 billion, and explains why growth today depends less on visibility and more on smart market choices, compliant promotion, and performance-focused influencer partnerships. Drawing on real campaign data and platform insights, Famesters outlines where brands should invest, which creators deliver results, and how influencer content influences real player decisions.

Famesters' experts break down how influencer marketing works across iGaming industry, and explain why interactive formats, live content, and creator trust now matter more than polished ads.

"In iGaming, people don't just want promises. They want to see the product in action," said Pavel Beinia, CEO & Founder of Famesters. "Influencers show real gameplay, real emotions, and real experiences. When brands work with the right creators and let them be honest, the audience responds with trust, and that trust turns into players."
