The business also announced it would be shaking up the company’s internal organisation in the restructure.

Going forward, the company’s activities will be grouped into Yolo Entertainment, Yolo Platform and Yolo Investments.

Yolo Entertainment comprises of the company’s B2C brands. These include BitCasino and Sportsbet.io.

Yolo Platform is described as the technology layer and will be offered on a B2B basis. Products such as Yolo Group’s Hub88 content aggregator are included under this vertical.

Meanwhile, Yolo Investment comprises €500m in assets under management across a number of investments in fintech and gaming.

“These structural changes signal a significant shift in the Yolo Group mindset, with all our business verticals becoming autonomous,” added Pärt.

“With each functioning as a separate business and supporting our wider mission, we’ll be even better placed to keep our customers at the centre of the universe.”
