Gambling & iGaming Research
Understand real bettors, players and market opportunities with reliable first-party research built for one of the most complex industries in the world.
Research built for the complexity
of gambling and iGaming
Gambling is one of the most challenging categories to research well. Real bettors can be difficult to reach, some survey respondents misrepresent themselves to qualify for incentives, and genuine players do not always accurately report their behaviour.
These challenges can affect decisions across acquisition strategy, market entry, licensing, and brand development.
TGM Research is designed with these realities in mind. We provide access to verified player audiences, supported by recruitment and quality-control processes tailored to the gambling sector rather than adapted from general market research approaches.
The result is player insight supported by transparent methodology and robust quality standards, which will help you make commercial, strategic and compliance-related decisions with greater confidence.
Sportsbook and casino brand tracking
Understand which brands are gaining momentum, what drives acquisition and retention, and how major events or campaigns influence player choice.
Player segmentation and journey research
Discover who your players are, how they behave, and what drives their decisions. From casual bettors to VIP users, player segmentation research helps improve CRM, personalization, retention, and lifetime value.
New market entry and market sizing
Assess if a country or gaming vertical is commercially attractive before you invest. We support TAM/SAM/SOM estimation, player incidence, geo-prioritization, competitor understanding, payment behavior, and recruitment risk review.
Product and feature testing
Before launch, validate how real players respond to new gaming products, platform features, and betting mechanics. We help you testing slot mechanics, bet builders, cash-out features, live betting, casino game concepts, bonus offers, payment journeys, and app UX.
Sponsorship and creative testing
Evaluate campaigns, sponsorships, brand ambassadors, messages and responsible gambling communications before they go live. Through online survey, we identify what resonates with bettors to help you reduce the risk of ineffective creative.
iGaming B2B and industry research
We conduct online research among affiliates and industry professionals to support operator surveys, market landscape research, licensing evidence, due diligence, industry benchmarking and more. The outcome help you make better commercial and investor-facing decisions.
