In larger markets this can be complemented with a local multibrand strategy. The UK market is very large and mature, which creates scope to work with more brands that attract different types of customers. We are now taking the next step and launching a brand that has sports betting as its primary focus. BetUK.com is a premium domain with a very strong link profile that ranks high on Google and other search engines. It is a very exciting move, and I am convinced that it will be a success with strong and sustainable growth."

When we know how successful of a brand Leo Vegas is they would probably make all the right moves of popularising their new UK sportsbetting site which seems to be their main goal these days and the sponsorhip contract with Swanse will definitely help the process even though the club is in the second tier of the local football in the current season.
From the first sound of it, it feels like it's gonna be another British casino, quite simplistic and fitting for the average player.
