Super Group's Betway Brand Launches Star-Studded Global Marketing Campaign, 'Betway Clubhouse'

Super Group (SGHC) Limited (NYSE: SGHC), the parent company of Betway, a leading online sports betting and gaming business, and Spin, the multi-brand online casino, today unveiled their new ‘Betway Clubhouse’ global integrated marketing campaign.

Produced in partnership with London-based agency M+C Saatchi Sport & Entertainment, Betway Clubhouse brings together an elite line-up of global sporting stars. Talent is featured from across the betting brand’s extensive stable of partners, including Manchester United, as their newly announced Principal Partner, Arsenal FC, and Manchester City. Also featured are football legend Thierry Henry, UFC champion Dricus du Plessis, six-time MLB All-Star Vladimir Guerrero Jr., members of South Africa's Springbok rugby squad, and Atlassian Williams F1 Team drivers Carlos Sainz and Alex Albon.

The film highlights the breadth and scale of Betway's global sporting partnerships, reflecting the brand's presence across some of the world's biggest teams, leagues and sporting competitions. It’s a virtual representation of the ultimate game-day destination where sports fans can come together and truly ‘Feel the Action’.

Speaking from Wolfpack Fulham, the location of London's Betway Clubhouse pop-up, Betway director of sponsorship Wayne Merris tolde  LBB's Cathy Meyer-Funnell how important it was for the brand to create “advertainment”.

He explained, “We want to be entertaining people, and the by-product of entertaining people through the platform should be that they consider you and they want to be part of your brand world.

”It's been 12 months in the making, 10 shoots around the world in four cities, so it's been a major undertaking. We're not prescriptive about how long it needs to be, we want entertainment and we want people to watch it, and on each subsequent watch spot a new person.”

Looking to the future and potential expansion of the platform, Wayne said, “The success of these brand platforms is down to consistency and sustainability. We feel we've got a really strong, creative platform in the Betway Clubhouse. It's been a hell of a ride, but we're really excited about this.”

A full 360-degree through-the-line campaign, Betway Clubhouse will serve as Betway’s consistent brand platform integrated through the funnel, for a unique and immersive fan-centric experience.

The campaign is headlined through a long-format advert that will be promoted across Betway’s markets globally, extending beyond the screen to TV, digital and outdoor – along with digital and physical experiences across Betway’s portfolio of partners. The launch coincided with immersive pop-up experiences across the globe – including takeovers of venues in London and Johannesburg this week.

Neal Menashe, Chief Executive Officer of Super Group, said, “Betway Clubhouse captures the excitement and passion that our customers experience as sports fans every day, while showcasing the truly global nature of the Betway brand. This campaign features an incredible lineup of sporting icons, highlighting the depth and prestige of our partnerships with the world’s elite athletes and organisations.”

Ross Watson, Managing Director of M+C Saatchi Sport & Entertainment commented, “From the moment we began working with Betway earlier this year, there was a shared ambition to create a brand platform that could match the scale of their global sporting partnerships while putting fans at the heart of the experience. Betway Clubhouse is the result of that ambition, a bold and entertaining creative idea designed to unite world-class talent under one distinctive brand world that can evolve across every touchpoint. It has been a fantastic collaboration with the Betway team, and we're proud to have helped bring this new chapter for the brand to life.”

The campaign was filmed over ten shoots globally including London, Manchester, Nice and Johannesburg and was produced by Common People alongside Director Virgil Ferragut.
