Case Study: Reducing CPA and Increasing FTDs in iGaming

Case Study iGaming

Client Overview

Our client, a well-known iGaming brand, wanted to increase the number of First-Time Depositors (FTDs) while reducing the Cost-Per-Acquisition (CPAs). They partnered with Traffic Nomads, using our Pops ad format and targeted Bangladesh traffic. The objective was clear: achieve a good value of FTDs at a good CPA within a week.

Summary

In just one week, Traffic Nomads’ Pops ad format played a key role in achieving a 47% decrease in Cost-Per-Acquisition (CPA) for the iGaming brand. This case study highlights how our advanced targeting capabilities and optimization features helped our client grow their customer base and optimize CPAs.

Challenges

  • Reduce CPAs while increasing the number of FTDs in a highly competitive iGaming market.
  • Optimize campaign performance to balance cost-effectiveness with high conversion rates (CR).
  • Focus on Bangladesh market.

The Strategy

Targeting the Right Devices: Since a large portion of iGaming players use mobile devices, the campaign was set to target mobile users. Desktop was deprioritized.

Browser and OS Targeting: We decided to prioritize more recent Android OS versions from Android 12 to 14. Chrome was the main targetted browser.

Use Subverticalization: Target only the publishers that have a past history of converting on iGaming campaigns from other advertisers.

Language Customization: We decided to target the main language in Bangladesh, in this case it’s Bengali.

Optimize the zones: This is the most important part, blacklist all the zones that have too high of a CPA, turn of the Landing Pages that are not performing and increase the bids of the best zones in terms of CPA and CR.

PreLanders / Landing Pages

It is essential not to use misleading prelanders but to play with real post-registration perks right off the bat like bonuses after the first time deposit. Invest time on your copywriting skills for this. It’s also important to buy a domain similar to the one from the brand to increase the user’s confidence.
