Entain wins two industry recognitions as operator for 2021

Entain was named the Socially Responsible Operator of the Year at the SBC Awards North America, and EGR Operator of the Year, for the third time in the last four years.

EGR judges pointed to Entain’s market position based on 23 consecutive quarters of double-digit online growth, also noting the group is “absolutely smashing it” in the US and “edging it for all sorts of performance reasons”.

Entain’s Foxy Bingo also took home EGR’s Bingo Operator of the Year title, with judges crediting the operator for its “above sector growth”, customer journey work, and for being “the most innovative and biggest improver” of the last year.

YES! We’ve been named as Operator of the Year 2021! 🏆 🎉 🥳
