Buying an iGaming Business With CasinosBroker: How Buy-Side Support Works

Most iGaming businesses for sale are never listed publicly. Owners want to avoid alerting competitors, staff and players, so good assets are often shown to a short list of buyers under NDA. For acquirers, that makes access the main challenge. CasinosBroker.com works with buyers in two ways.

1. Access to sell-side mandates

CasinosBroker represents owners selling online casinos, sportsbooks, affiliate sites and portfolios, and B2B gaming technology. Qualified buyers in its network of more than 1,000 acquirers receive blind teasers for mandates that fit their criteria. After signing an NDA, they receive the confidential information memorandum and can request data room access.

2. Buy-side representation

Buyers with a defined target – for example, a licensed casino in a particular market, a sports betting affiliate with regulated-market traffic, or a live-casino or slot studio – can engage CasinosBroker to search for it, approach owners and support the transaction.

What makes a buyer "qualified"

Sellers will only engage with buyers who can close. Expect to provide:

  • A clear acquisition brief: asset type, markets, size range and structure
  • Evidence of funds or financing
  • Operating or acquisition history, if any
  • For licensed operators, whether you can satisfy the regulator's checks on new owners

Writing a good acquisition brief

  • Asset type: casino, sportsbook, affiliate, platform, studio
  • Markets: regulated, specific countries, or open
  • Licence: required jurisdiction, or happy to operate under your own licence
  • Size: revenue or profit range, and budget
  • Structure: asset or share deal, appetite for earnouts or seller financing
  • Involvement: whether you will operate it yourself or need the team to stay

The more specific the brief, the faster suitable assets can be identified.

What buyers get during a transaction

  • A valuation framework showing how the asking price was built
  • Coordinated due diligence and data room access
  • Support on LOI terms and deal structure
  • Escrow coordination, so funds are released only against agreed handover steps

Points to check before you bid

  • Whether the licence stays with the business or you will need your own
  • Whether payment providers and the platform will continue with you as owner
  • Revenue concentration by player, operator or traffic source
  • The seller's role after completion

Licence and tax questions should be confirmed with advisers in the relevant jurisdictions before an offer becomes binding.

Track record

Since 2021, CasinosBroker has taken more than 110 mandates and closed 52 transactions, with a median of 90 days from signed mandate to completion.
