- Betting technology revenue went up more than 50%, raking in $53.9 million.
- Revenue doubled to $17.1 million in media technology.
- Sports technology brought in three times the amount it did last year for a total of $13.1 million.
The numbers build upon the momentum coming from the third quarter, which similarly saw more than 70% of group revenue growth from the comparable period in 2020.
Successful Year
Mark Locke, GSL co-founder and CEO, called 2021 a “transformational year” for the brand.
The company’s group revenue went up 75.5% compared with 2020 — pulling in a total of $262.7 million.
The growth was powered by a merger with dMY Technology Group in April 2021 for $1.5 billion, as well as several deals with major brands including FanDuel and the NFL.
The company expects even more rapid growth in 2022. Its group revenue projection is about $340 million.
